Chile Relleno in Palm Springs and Tony Curtis in the Bathroom

Pack your bags. For this week’s episode of the pod we’re going to California with the Senior Culture Editor at GQ and co-author of Quantum Criminals: Ramblers, Wild Gamblers, and Other Sole Survivors from the Songs of Steely Dan. Alex Pappademas joins Matt & Vince to talk about Mad Men season two episode eleven, “The Jet Set.”

Pete & Don go to the sunshine state to scout new clients at an aeronautics convention and have wildly different, but both quintessentially LA, experiences. Like most New Yorkers, Pete hates everything until he sees a celebrity. “Everybody here is late for everything… Oh! I just saw Tony Curtis in the restroom,” he says before getting ignored by beautiful women at the pool. Don, however, is beautiful, so he gets taken in by a gang of beautiful, wealthy people who don’t seem to have jobs. One of them wants Don to sleep with his daughter, which is somehow a story that Vince can relate to.

Back at the office, the creative team learns that Kurt is a homosexual who makes love with the men, not the women. (his words). The reaction is as homophobic as you would expect for 1962, and poor Sal has to hear it all.
