Zou Basil Basil (Mad Men S5) - Show Notes

Zou Bisou Bisou, Lettuce Heads! This week on The Lettuce Podcast, Laura and Charlotte continue their journey through Mad Men with Season 5. They welcome guest Andy to the show to chat about the characters, relationships, and 1960's events in this most enthralling season. Laura, as usual, fawns over Joan's storyline and the pivotal moment which changes her character forever. Charlotte notes Peggy's choices to leave SCDP and how the this affects the growth of her and Don's friendship. Andy highlights Don and Megan's Howard Johnson's trip, and explains why it so exemplifies the 1960's. They also discuss the tragedy of Lane Pryce, Betty's body troubles, Paul Kinsey's spiritual awakening, and so much more. How are Megan and Don scoring on the marriage report card? How many times can Pete Campbell get punched in the face before he considers a personality adjustment? And do Sally and Glen like each other or like-like each other? Listen to this week's episode to find out the answers to these burning questions!


For the Fun & Games segments, the hosts and guest play a very challenging round of Kill Marry Pity Date. They also have their best round of Mad Men Mad Libs using the English translation of "Zou Bisou Bisou" for inspiration.

Laura, Charlotte, and Andy each enjoyed a different podtail for this episode. Laura, inspired by Joan's disastrous Welcome Home dinner with Greg, mixed up a Gin Fizz. Charlotte channeled her inner Megan Draper and sipped on some wine. Andy chose the Golden Lasso, a podtail originally crafted for the Wonder Woman episode.
