Welcome back to yet another edition of Blowing Smoke! In this installment, we’re diving into Mad Men’s fourth episode of season one, New Amsterdam. Pete Campbell is juggling the chaos of newlywed life and his first big campaign pitch—spoiler alert: it’s a bumpy ride. Meanwhile, Betty finds herself playing confidante to a neighbor in need, navigating the tricky complexities of suburban life. We break down the power plays, awkward moments, and cultural expectations that seem to keep all of our characters in the tightest of chokeholds. Along the way, we hand out our awards for the best (and most cringeworthy) moments. Come for Pete’s so-so attempts at success, stay for his father Andrew’s memorably horrible single-scene appearance. But have no fear, Andrew-hive—he more than makes his mark.
