Mad Yourself A Man 108: The Hobo Code, with Dave From Dopey

We’re Going to Get High and Listen to a Podcast

You don’t have to spark up a doobie with your beatnik friends to enjoy the latest MYAM, but it probably won’t hurt. Matt and Vince invite the host of Dopey Podcast, David Manheim, to talk about Mad Men season one episode eight, “The Hobo Code.”

If you’ve seen Mad Men, you might remember this as the episode where Don gets baked as a kite and remembers the time a hobo who looked like Father Intentola came to visit his family’s dirt farm. Don remembers that his dad is a dishonest man, so he goes home all red-eyed and wakes up his son like, “I’m Don Draper, AMA. I’ll never lie to you.” Stupid little kid doesn’t even think to ask what Don’s real name is.

Meanwhile, Peggy thinks for a second she can have it all. She’s hooking up with an ad man, her Belle Jolie campaign is a hit, and she gets to celebrate over a drink with the boys, and dance with her coworkers. Pete has to go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like, “I don’t like you like this.” It’s maybe the only time you’ll see someone slut-shamed for doing The Twist.
