Blowing Bean Smoke

Is this podcast beans-funny or pickles-funny? Find out on the latest episode with comedian, writer, and ceramicist Eliza Skinner joining Matt & Vince to chat about Mad Men season four episode twelve, “Blowing Smoke.” 

In the wake of Lucky Strike’s departure, Don’s trying to land another big fish, but he’ll settle for beans, vinegars, and/or sauces. Faye gets him a meeting with Heinz, and he learns that he can’t make an ad about how beans make you fart, but does not lock down a new client. 

Remember Midge? Don’s first mistress? You never forget your first. She’s back and she’s selling paintings to fund her true passion, doing heroin. Which she describes as feeling like, “drinking a hundred bottles of whiskey while someone licks your tits.” She makes it seem like that’s good and cool and good, but on paper, sounds icky. Don’t do heroin. It’s icky.
