Mad Men Happy Hour

Hello everyone, it’s that bittersweet time where we sign off of the Happy Hour until next spring.  But what a season it was!  Join us as we discuss what we thought of the season, it’s themes, where this season ranks with the others, looking at the rest of 1969 in US history and seeing if there is any Mad Men to be mined there, and as always, considering your fantastic feedback.  Thanks again for listening, and for all of your support.
