Meditations on a Finale As is customary for the last episode of a season, we brought in the closer and honorary Pod Yourself a Third Chair. From Defector, The Distraction, and It’s Christmastown podcasts, David J. Roth joins Matt and Vince for the Mad Men season two finale, “Meditations in an Emergency.” We know they’re not going to get blown up by Russia, but the characters don’t know that yet. There’s a missile crisis in, or around, Cuba, and on Madison Avenue, they’re living like there’s no tomorrow. Pete tries to get one last we’re-gonna-die shag from Peggy, who then confesses that she gave away his baby. He looks sad, but you just know he still would have hit if she let him.  Betty decides she too can play at the philandering game, and has her one last we’re-gonna-die shag with a strange man in what appears to be a bartender’s dressing room? Manhattan cocktail bars in the sixties seem cool. You could smoke inside, bartenders had dressing rooms you could have sex in, and oh wait right they didn’t let black people in. Nevermind, the sixties were bad. The podcast is good. Just enjoy the podcast. We’ll be back soon with season three.  Tell us if you ever gave a baby up for adoption in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts.

The Mounting Kings Matt & Vince are joined by comedian, co-host of the Oh Hell Yeah podcast, handsome devil, and producer of this podcast, Brent Flyberg. Listen as we discuss Mad Men season two episode twelve, “The Mountain King” Fellas, is your nag wife always hounding you about your philanderous lifestyle? Have you tried bailing to Long Beach and getting free therapy and tarot readings from the widow of the man whose identity you stole to escape the Korean War?  Works for Don, but his dead commanding officer’s wife is the ultimate cool girl, and yours probably isn’t. Back in New York, Pete throws a chicken off the balcony, Peggy earns her own office after nailing the popsicle account pitch, Joan tries a sex act considered obscene in 1962 (girl on top?!?!?) and Roger pushes for a merger with Putney Powell & Lowe so he can fund his divorce and keep his child bride happy.  If you need to confess to disrespecting the Xerox machine, do it in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts.  Email us at [email protected]; leave us a voicemail at 415-275-0030 Support the Pod: become a patron at patreon.com/Frotcast and get more bonus content than you could ever want.

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.  Tell us which celebrities you’ve seen in the bathroom in a five star review on Apple Podcasts.  Email us at [email protected]; leave us a voicemail at 415-275-0030 Support the Pod: become a patron at patreon.com/Frotcast and get more bonus content than you could ever want.

Betty’s Dad is Strokin’ and Gropin’ Say wazzzzzup to this week’s guest. Joining Matt & Vince is the funniest female comedian in the world, Alison Stevenson, to discuss Mad Men season two episode 10, “The Inheritance.” You likely remember the Budweiser ad that inspired millions to ask “what’s up?” in a merged, while drawn-out, fashion, but do you remember the Obama campaign ad that brought those guys back to your screen (all the way from Iraq!) to ask wazzzzzzup with America? It’s Alison’s favorite ad. She’s likely seen it more times than she’s seen an episode of Mad Men, but don’t be weird about it. It’s another A+ edition of the podcast.  The Mad Men episode is fine too (solid B+). Betty’s dad makes a pass at her, Pete finds out his once old money family has become nouveau pauvre, and Paul’s girlfriend learns he only cares about her rights if he’s not getting a free trip to California.  Try to explain why there is sexual tension between Glenn and Betty in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts.  Email us at [email protected]; leave us a voicemail at 415-275-0030 Support the Pod: become a patron at patreon.com/Frotcast and get more bonus content than you could ever want.

The One Where Freddie “Faints”We know you’re drinking because your daughter has had a string of bad beaus, but we have a good man on this week’s episode, writer of Spaceman and the Hollyweird newsletter, Colby Day, joins Matt and Vince to talk about Mad Men season two episode nine, “Six Month Leave."According to Wikipedia, this is the episode in which beloved office lush Freddy Rumsen “faints” just before a pitch meeting, but don’t worry this is not a Mandela effect, you remember it correctly. He doesn’t faint, he goes pee pee in his damn trousers. Roger and Don agree it’s pretty funny, but even a white man can’tpiss in his damn pants at work and expect to keep his job in 1962. It was the dawn of woke culture. They take ol’ Freddy out for one last bender before sending off to pasture in the hopes he can learn to just drink beer. In the process, they say some anti-semitic stuff, meet a heavyweight champ, punch a comedian, get thrown out of an underground casino, and Don unwittingly convinces Roger to leave his wife. It’s a reminder to be careful what you say to your boys who hate their wives. You don’t want a divorce hanging over your head. Describe, but don’t actually tell us, your favorite racist street joke in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts. Email us at [email protected]; leave us a voicemail at 415-275-0030Support the Pod: become a patron at patreon.com/Frotcast and get more bonus content than you could ever want.

We don’t care what you do, as long as you listen to the latest MYAM with returning guest Bobby Bigwheel joining Matt and Vince to talk about Mad Men season two episode eight “A Night to Remember.” Don’s officially in the dog house. All his slutting around finally catches up to him when Betty confronts him about Bobbie Barrett after their dinner party. The final straw that broke Betty’s back? Don tricked her into buying Heinekin to impress his work friends. The lesson being, If you care about your marriage, drink domestic. Meanwhile Harry’s dumb ass finally makes a good decision, enlisting Joan to read TV scripts to make sure nothing in the shows agitates the advertisers. And how does this dumbass reward Joan for her good work? By hiring some gormless dweeb to replace her. What a dumbass.

Cadillac Puke De Ville Shake off that picnic blanket and leave your garbage for someone else to pick up, there’s a new episode of MYAM to listen to. YouTuber and creator of Manufacturing a Dream: A Mad Men Retrospective, José, joins Matt & Vince to talk about Mad Men season two episode seven, “The Gold Violin.” Don buys a new Cadillac because everything is coming up Draper. He’s a rich, successful white guy in the 60s. He can do whatever he wants without any fear of repercussions, unless of course he leaves his wife alone for ten minutes with the man he’s been cucking.  Back at the office, Jane gets fired for sneaking into Bert Cooper’s office to appreciate some art, but Roger promises to get her job back if he can just get her address. He’s a rich, successful white guy in the 60s, so this would have been seen as a romantic story.  Tell us what you think of Cosgrove’s short stories in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts.  Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Nothing Fits Both Sides of Woman Better Than Podcast You wanted it, and you got it, and it’s better than they said. It’s the latest episode of MYAM with writer and TrueAnon podcast host Liz Franczak joining Matt & Vince to talk about Mad Men season two episode six, “Maidenform.” A new campaign for Playtex has all the boys excluding Peggy to talk about what types of women there are, and how they correlate to bras and public figures. This culminates with Peggy dressing like a harlot and sitting on some dude’s lap, but in a cool, empowering way, probably.  While the men of Sterling Cooper are talking about cups and straps and first ladies and whatnot, Don learns that the women of New York are talking about what he can make that dick do. Bobbie informs him he has a reputation as a good sex-haver. Sounds cool to me, but it makes Don wanna put his tender heart in a blender and watch it spin around to a beautiful oblivion, so he ties her to the bedpoooooost.

Pick a Pod and Become the Person Who Casts it Tell your husband you're at a fat farm and throw on this week’s pod with host of the Dopey Podcast, Dave Mannheim, joining Matt and Vince to talk about Mad Men season two episode five, “The New Girl” The titular new girl could be any number of girls. Bobbie Barrett is Don’s new girl on the side, Jane is the new girl on Don’s desk, engaged Joan is a new girl celebrating (relatively) young love, Peggy feels like a new girl after asserting her place as Don’s peer, and Pete finds out his seed is strong enough to potentially produce a new girl. Don might have a new girl but he’s the same old mad man. He’s driving drunk with a mistress he sort of hates when he crashes his car so bad he has to call Peggy to bail him out and hide his sidepiece at her apartment until the bruises heal. If anybody asks, it was the blood pressure medicine that caused the accident, not the booze. Feel free to try that as an excuse the next time you do something dumb when you’re drunk.

She joins Matt & Vince to talk about Mad Men season two episode four “Three Sundays.” Don and the gang are chasing American Airlines, even coming in on Good Friday in their casual wear to workshop a pitch that doesn’t remind everyone of the horrible plane crash. While they’re all hard at work, Sally is drinking her dad’s booze, chasing that perfect feeling you only get from the right amount of rye.  There’s also a new horny priest in town, and he’s maybe chasing Peggy? Colin Hanks is the new holy man in the Olsen family’s life, and as Emma points out, him and Peggy have sort of a Father Intentola/ Carmella Soprano will they/won’t they thing going on.

Jamaican Me Dad DieDon’t think about the president gutting the FAA, just listen to the latest edition of MYAM with Comedian and co-host of the Roundball Rock podcast, Sean Keane joining Matt and Vince to discuss Mad Men season two episode two, “Flight 1.”RIPete’s dad. In this episode, the Campbell paterfamilias dies in the American Airlines plane crash that everyone in the Sterling Cooper office is joking about. The tragic aviation accident that killed one of their peers is not just laughing matter to these mad men, no, it’s also a business opportunity. Duck thinks American Airlines might want to make some new ads. You know, some print ads that draw attention away from the 95 bodies at the bottom of Jamaica Bay, and towards the skirts on the stewardesses. Meanwhile, Paul and Joan get in a fight because Paul is a phony and Joan is both racist and 31. Paul puts her on blast by revealing her age to everyone in the office, because in 1960s America it was much worse to be a 31-year-old woman than to be racist. Don’t think about which is more socially acceptable in 2025 America.

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.

Sissy with a Chip-and-DipMatherton might have the clap, but this week we have co-host and producer of the Blowback Podcast, Brendan James joining Matt & Vince to discuss Mad Men season one episode seven, “Red in the Face.”Fellas, don’t you hate it when your wife sends you to the store to return a chip-and-dip (you got two), and then gets all mad at you for using the store credit to buy a gun? Pete Campbell sure does, but at least he got to wave the gun around a crowded office before Trudy lit him up at home. Elsewhere, Roger gets lit up enough at Don’s home to make a pass at Betty. Fellas, don’t you hate it when your wife is polite enough to your drunk boss that he has no choice but to sexually harass her? Don sure does, but at least he gets his revenge by getting Roger to puke up a pile of oysters in front of the RNC.Tell us what’s in your treasure box in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts. Email us at [email protected]; leave us a voicemail at 415-275-0030Support the Pod: become a patron at patreon.com/Frotcast and get more bonus content than you could ever want.

Shouldn’t You Pod the Promised Land? You may remember when this week’s guest from when she podded herself a gun or podded herself a wire, but today for the first time ever, comedian Katrina Davis joins Matt & Vince to mad herself a man and discuss Mad Men season one episode six, “Babylon.” Sterling Cooper has a new potential client, the Israeli Board of Tourism, so Don spends the entire episode talking about Israel like he thinks he’s Matt Lieb or something.  The other new client, Belle Jolie lipstick, brings a bucket of samples and the gals around the office generate a pile of lipstick-smattered tissues, or as Peggy calls it, a “basket full of kisses.” A turn of phrase so clever it makes Freddy Rumsen wonder if a woman could be capable of having thoughts.  Pitch us a Israel tourism ad in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts.  Email us at [email protected]; leave us a voicemail at 415-275-0030 Support the Pod: become a patron at patreon.com/Frotcast and get more bonus content than you could ever want.

Did it All for the Newkie Writer and Pod Yourself a friend, Laremy Legel joins Matt & Vince to talk about Mad Men season one episode five, “5G.”Don’t worry, the title of the episode is a reference to a hotel room number in the episode, not the secret government plan to make you gay. Don’s half brother, Adam Whitman comes to visit after seeing Don’s photo in Advertising Age after he wins a Newkie Award. At first Don is like, lol I dunno what you’re talking about bro, then he’s like, okay it me, Dick, but I’m glad your mom is dead and I don’t want to be your freakin’ bro, bro.

Jim Halpert could never. It’s a source of constant amusement for the office. No one does racist quips better than a bunch of 60s copywriters.

The Ladies are in the Room and They’re Going Mad, Man Pour yourself a big glass of rye and stop spying on your wife through her psychiatrist because comedian, host of the Oh Hell Yeah podcast, handsome devil, and producer of Mad Yourself a Man, Brent Flyberg joins Matt & Vince to dissect Mad Men season one episode two of Mad Men, “Ladies Room.” As noted on the pod, the second episode is often the worst episode of any tv show. “Ladies Room” is no exception. Don’t get me wrong, it still looks good, and Don says some funny stuff like “Who is this moron flying around in space? He pisses his pants,” but also Paul is saying nonsense like, “that drape is sadder than a map.” Maps are sad? What kind of commie babble is that, Kinsey?

A term coined in the mid 2020’s to describe a Mad Men rewatch podcast hosted by Vince Mancini and Matt Lieb. They coined it.  That’s right. The boys, or in this case, men, are back in podtown to watch another prestige TV show and somehow, some way, find a connection between one of television’s greatest achievements and what it sounds like when you’re eating that butt. Returning to help Matt and Vince kickoff with season one episode one, “The Smoke Gets in Your Eyes” is 1st Team All-Pod-Yourself guest, host of The Distraction and It’s Christmastown podcasts, and Defector.com founder, David J. Roth. Mad Men? More like bad men. These boys do not know how to behave themselves around the freakin’ chicks, man. If you think it’s bad to call them “freakin’ chicks,” you will really not like how the ad men at Sterling & Cooper talk to the new secretary, Peggy. Don’t worry though, Joan is there to teach her how to respond to the constant sexual harassment (learn to like it or go back to Queens).  It’s Don’s show though. He’s handsome, charming, and sort of scrawny-fat-fit. He’s gonna smoke cigarettes (regardless of what his wife reads in those magazines she loves so much) and more importantly, he’s going to come up with some killer taglines to sell you nylons and cigarettes and lead-based paints.  Tell us why you love smoking in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts.  Email us at [email protected]; leave us a voicemail at 415-275-0030 Support the Pod: become a patron at patreon.com/Frotcast and get more bonus content than you could ever want.

It’s Frotcast 607, and the three wise guys are back to talk about 'Wise Guy,' the new David Chase documentary, wisely as guys.But first! We check in with our old pal Donny Trump and play the game “What Movie Is Trump Confusing With Real Life?” 100 Frotcast Points to whomever is able to figure that one out. We then shift to sunnier topics like the Vice Presidential debate, which kicked off with an extremely loaded question about Israel despite the fact that a large chunk of the country they’re debating to be VP of is underwater. What does it mean? Probably nothing bad. The Daily Caller weighs in on the trend sweeping the nation (two random dudes from Twitter), being extremely gay for JD Vance.The conversation about Wise Guy devolves into debunking the Great Man theory of art, which Brendan may or may not have just made up. It’s streaming on Max for your viewing pleasure. Good doc, solid B+.We finish up by discussing a galaxy-brained take that posits- what if Amadeus is actually about the Cold War? A take so bad that Brendan considers joining the Khmer Rouge.

Look I’m sorry, but nothing happens to Matt’s car on this episode. We understand if you want to skip this one. Comedian Anna Valenzuela (whose comedy album Murderpuss is available for pre-order) joins the Frot crew to discuss the new Reagan biopic, which is helpfully called Reagan. But first! We discuss the presidential debate, namely how much we’ll miss shit like a fucking former leader of the free world yelling THEY’RE EATING THE DOGS into a microphone. Our conversation also turns to Dave Grohl. If you’re upset about him having sex with a non-his wife-person, maybe just don’t care about what people you’ve never met do with their junk? Just in time for Anna to leave for her therapy appointment, we dive into Reagan, the movie about Reagan (not to be confused with Raygun, the movie that doesn’t yet exist about the shitty breakdancer). Hilarity ensues as we discuss weapons-grade smarm and the chicken aesthetic people that this movie was made for. Truly some baffling choices in this Hallmark card-ass movie. Solid B+.

Patreon dot com slash frotcast! Sign up at Patreon to listen to this episode.Zack Chapaloni takes time out from his busy improv schedule to join us for a robust “yes-and” of Mark Wahlberg and Halle Berry’s new madcap shooting spree comedy The Union. That’s not really a joke; in between witty bon mots, Halle Hal and Marky Mark rack up a body count on par with Legionnaire’s Disease. Brendan forgets JK Simmons’ name and decides to refer to him thenceforth as JK Rowling. Matt watched about half the movie and we come to the conclusion that he really didn’t miss that much. This is an AI-ass movie, y’all. We also discuss the baffling end credits sequence and whether or not this is simply the logical result of stan culture vs. “wanting to see a good movie” (spoiler: it is).Vince wanted to save his takes on ‘Reagan,’ the new biopic about our most AI-ass president, until the rest of us could see it, but he had to take his shirt off and go in anyway. We challenge some fundamental assumptions of the movie such as: since when does he get credit for ending the Cold War, and why should any American particularly give a shit? Plus! A helpful guide to recognizing Gorbachev in the movie if you don’t have a helpful geriatric to loudly whisper THAT’S GORBACHEV in your theater.If you like what you heard from our esteemed guest, find Zack on his website here.

Welcome to this week’s Frotcast, where we decide to re-evaluate the case of Scott Peterson. Not his guilt (he totally did that shit), but his place in the esteemed pantheon of Extremely Dumb Guys. We welcome back Desi and Rachel from Hollywood Crime Scene to discuss not only his dim wits, but also his poor lying skills, off-putting demeanor, and creepy voice. Form an orderly queue, ladies! We mostly discuss the Netflix doc, but also touch on the Peacock and Hulu series as well, if you’d like to waste several more hours of your life learning about this weirdo. You’ll be devastated to learn that Matt got a new car, which may well end our multi-episode saga of vehicular assault on Matt’s life. Perhaps an enterprising listener can sabotage his car in order to give us more precious #content. He also describes his own Hollywood Crime Scene involving sexual assault of a Big Mouth Billy Bass. We’d love to see that story get the Scott Pelley treatment. Other topics include large adult Chicagoans, which Gallagher brother goes down on his right fit bird, and Deep Dish Diarrhea.

This week on the Frotcast, Matt comes to us live from his very stressful trip to San Francisco where his car broke down in the middle of the freeway on the way to do some comedy. He ended up all sweaty up there. Our guest this week is Ryan Nanni, aka Celebrity Hot Tub, author of Assigned and co-host of the Shut Down Fullcast. Matt tells us all about his trip, we talk about JD Vance stealing Joe Sinclitico's Frotcast bit and having sex with couches, plus we review JD Vance's crowdwork about Diet Mountain Dew. Eventually we get around to talking about 'Love Lies Bleeding,' the lesbian bodybuilding movie starring Kristen Stewart I made everyone watch for some reason. Basically imagine Pain & Gain with lesbian bodybuilders. Or maybe Thelma & Louise with lesbian bodybuilders. It's actually a bunch of things that sound intriguing and yet none of those things at all because it doesn't feel like they finished writing it.

Joey and Vince are back talking about season 1 of Top Chef. This week we're talking about season one, episode 3 (103), "Nasty Delights," which really is a fantastic Top Chef episode and quite possibly a big reason we still have this show 21 seasons later. Stephen Asprinio deserves his place in the Top Chef hall of fame. All-time great reality show character. The chefs had to make octopus, and then they had to make monkfish for little kids. Crazy how this episode turned out, because some people who went on to become food TV royalty probably should've gone home this episode. Justice for Brian!

ANNOUNCEMENT! Pod Yourself will get back in recording studio soon and with a brand new show! Listen to the announcement at the beginning to find out what show! On today’s Frotcast, we’re guest-free (by choice, not because we couldn’t find anyone, WHY WOULD YOU EVEN ASK THAT??), so you know what that means, wall to wall jokes about eatin dat buhhhh. That’s not entirely true, we discuss the disastrous debate between two guys who are so fucking old there’s gotta be some kind of gag we’re missing. We establish a baseline of “must be able to assure America that post-birth abortions don’t exist” for being the leader of the free world. After that, Vince finds new types of Guys To Be Mad At; you will assuredly be mad at them too unless you brag on LinkedIn about posting #content on #linkedin to boost #engagement. Please keep this in mind for your Listener Performance Review next quarter. Not to spoil things, but it might get ugly. You all have been terribly disappointing to us. We round things out by talking about the new Beverly Hills Cop movie. It’s officially called “Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F” but Frotcast house style dictates we refer to it as “Beverly Hills Cop Promo Code Axel F”. Drink every time someone says “FOLEY!” if you want to die. Brendan was the only one to watch the whole thing, but we manage to squeeze plenty out of our discussion before we all decide we’re tired and we’d better wrap things up.

Documentarian Lance Oppenheim last hung out with us just a few months ago to talk about Spermworld, his Hulu documentary about unlicensed sperm donors. At the time he teased us with news of his next project, Ren Faire, a documentary series about the eccentric owner of the Texas Renaissance Festival, one of the largest renaissance festivals in the world. Well now that documentary is here. Ren Faire, produced by the Safdie Brothers and Ronald Bronstein (Uncut Gems, Good Time, etc.) follows George Coulam, an eccentric octogenerian ex-Mormon who dresses in a self-designed military-inspired uniform who everyone calls "King George." King George is the capricious ruler of the TRF, who says he wants to retire while his long-suffering employees scramble around trying to please him while plotting against each other and trying to set themselves up to become the heir apparent.Ren Faire's main characters include Jeff Baldwin, the portly theater kid entertainment director who has recently become general manager, Louie Migliaccio, a steampunk energy drink addict who runs the festival's kettle corn empire (but dreams of more), and Darla Smith, an elephant trainer-turned renaissance faire capitalist. Lance opens up about how he shot Ren Faire, what all the Ren Faire characters are doing now -- big scoop on Jeff Baldwin and the rest of the staff in there -- and how many energy drinks Louie Migliaccio consumes in a day. Oh, and about how King George's sugar daddy dates at the Olive Garden actually went down, and whether George asked them any questions beyond whether their breasts are real.Ren Faire is a great docuseries and the ultimate show for anyone who wants to know how unhappy rich people actually are.

Hey everyone, here's some bonus slop that Vince and Roundball Rock's Joey Devine did! Vince does this thing about the show Top Chef where he does "power rankings" or something. People love it and now you will too. Also don't worry, there will be a Frotcast this week and WE WILL SOON PICK A SHOW I SWEAR.DESCRIPTION: For all the Top Chef lovers, Joey Devine from Roundball Rock and I (Vince) decided to do a post-Top Chef recap show. Which chefs do we love? Which do we hate? Whose chances do we like? What changes do we love this season, and which do we not? You know, all that shit. If you watch Top Chef, you'll probably love this. If you don't, well, your mileage may vary. But maybe you get desperate and end up realizing you like it. Maybe you discover feelings that you always had but tried to deny and it'll be a whole sexual awakening kind of a thing. Look I don't know, we were already watching Top Chef so it seemed like an easy lift. Hope you like it.Join the Patreon.
