    Thorough and insightful
    The conversations are succinct with the episodes. Daniel’s excellence makes up for Roberta’s constant projecting of her own personal insecurities. Less Roberta disagreements would be ideal. But it is still an enjoyable companion to the show.

    The best...can't wait for the end
    Really good Mad Men podcast. Less wasted talk and more focus than any other MM cast. (and this from a listener who doesn't mind banter) They have a plan, structure and they execute. Dan and Roberta have some great insights of real life in advertising (and life in general) to apply to these situations. Plus they come from a background of blogging since the show first aired. In that way it has an advantage. My understanding is they had some issues with Apple, otherwise that last episode would be there...hope that one day we can hear the Person to Person.

    Thanks!
    Someone wrote another review saying that he wants spoilers as there’s no chance there are ‘first timers’ listening to this… WRONG! I am a first timer (some of us do not live in the US and did not get a chance to watch some series when they first aired). Love listening to this every time after I watch an episode. Great stuff, thanks makes me appreciate the show so much more… until I will rewatch it 😉

    More Dan, less (much less) Roberta
    I love mad men, and will listen to this until I finish the series. That said, the lack of “spoilers” annoys me. There’s no first-time watchers listening to this podcast. No chance. Less Buffy the vampire slayer references. My biggest gripe is with Roberta. I can do without her saying “I didn’t see it that way” in her condescending tone five times per episode. She has to disagree with every single take that Dan has. She’s way too left wing and that’s fine, but it projects onto the podcast. I just want to listen to a podcast about mad men, not your annoying feminist agenda. I appreciate all you’ve done to put this podcast together. Those are my thoughts.
