65. Why Am I In The Poo Room?

The School for Dumb Women

* This episode contains a huge spoiler for the show Mad Men at around 22 minutes in! *

The team goes back in time this week to a period when staying in hotels, creating a rebel army and eating sweets from drawers were all socially acceptable pastimes. Caroline looks at how the US Senate keeps its sugar levels up with a ‘trough’ of candy kept in a desk, Hannah digs into how Pantone managed to put a branded mug in every wannabe-designer’s kitchen, and Alex wonders how William Wallace aka ‘Braveheart’ turned Mel Gibson into a bad man.
