S5E11 – 'The Other Woman'

The Mad Men Men return to tackle one of Mad Men‘s most acclaimed—and devastating—episodes! Jon, Mike, and Will unpack “The Other Woman,” exploring Joan’s most impossible choice yet. But also Peggy’s long-overdue departure from Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce, and Megan’s growing determination to chase a life beyond Don Draper.

If you’re new here, Mad Men Men covers Mad Men from three angles. First, we have a first-time watcher (Will Ashton). Then, we have a first-time rewatcher (Mike Overhulse). Finally, we have the over-rewatcher (me, Jon Negroni).
