“Mad Magazine,” “The Americans,” & Dom La Nena
This week, a former CIA man brings his Cold War experiences to light on the TV spy show “The Americans.” We take a serious look at “Mad Magazine,” the goofy, bawdy, sarcastic kids’ magazine that made America snarky. And Brazilian cellist Dom La Nena performs live.
