Ask a Grown Man: Jon Hamm from Rookie on Vimeo or YouTube.
To submit a question for next month’s Grown Man/Men, write to youaskedit@rookiemag.com, and write “Ask a Grown Man” in the subject line.
Hello, you. June’s theme will be LONGING. Unlike more-acute forms of desire like desperation or need, longing is a sweet ache—more pining for something than dying for it. It’s nostalgia, homesickness, boredom, a persistent feeling of lack, dreaming of escape/the future. It’s summer: summer homes & cottages, stuffy summer bedrooms, sun-bleached memories of summers past. The shadow of September that hangs over June. It’s secret hangouts, crushes, unrequited love. Send what you’ve got here, and thanks. ♥
GAAAAH JON HAMM. Emotions of Jon Hamm is the best Tumblr ever, because he is amazing. I can’t believe he did the Ask a Grown Man thing, just proves how great he is.

Log in to replyAnd I’m 16 and Mad Men is my second-favourite show on TV, thank you very much, Jon Hamm.
What is your first-favorite show?
Log in to replyOh my lord that is Jon Hamm. Squee!
Log in to replypraise da lord for jon hamm.
Log in to replyI second that.
Log in to replyI second second that! And we’re not too young to watch Mad Men, John, come on. I think most of us here love the show. Someone should’ve asked him who keeps or is going to keep Joan’s costumes after they finish shooting the series and how to get them.
Log in to replyOMG OMG OMG OMG

Log in to replyI have to say I felt a little weird about taking advice about relationships from Don Draper, but then I just thought of him as Drew from 30 Rock and everything was okay.
Log in to replylololololol best comment ever!
Log in to replyagreed!
Log in to replyHe seems so confused through the whole thing, but his answers were brilliant!
Log in to replyi haven’t even watched this yet and i am fangirling allll over the place
Log in to replyAHHHHHHH I could barely even listen because my hyperventilating was so loud. :)

Log in to replyjon hamm is a golden god!!!!
Log in to replyOmg Don Draper! I love Mad Men!
Log in to replyTOO YOUNG TO WATCH MAD MEN?
No way Jon Hamm! It was really strange to see him in a tshirt… and he kind of seems like an asshole, but in that attractive way. Yay for Rookie!
Log in to replyTotally agree with this comment in its entirety.
Log in to replyI saw the thumbnail earlier and literally died BECAUSE I KNEW THAT THIS WAS WHAT IT WAS GOING TO BE
Log in to replyOH JESUS H CHRIST! I just fell out of my damn seat. Oh my…I can’t.
This is perfect I haven’t even played the video yet.

Log in to replyI just outright Sally-Draper-Beatles-Freak-Out screamed when I saw it was Jon Hamm. I’ll go watch it now.
Log in to replyomg i love u and ur disgruntled confused shrug thing ~NEVER CHANGE~
Log in to replyI’m 20 so I guess I’m not too young to watch Mad Men? Hahaha
I love Jon Hamm, the only bad thing I can say about him is that he was on “Sucker Punch”? Anyway, yay for Rookie getting such amazing people to contribute ♥
Log in to replyI don’t care, I’ve watched every episode of Mad Men and I love it to death.
Log in to replyOH HOT DAMN, JON IS MY HAMM

Log in to replyugh YES
Log in to replyyou were not very helpful lol

Log in to replyRookie is on a roll!!
Log in to replyYou guys are getting great grown men.
Can the next Grown Man be Jason Segel??
Please and Thank You. =]
Seconded for Jason Segel!
Log in to replyThirded for Jason Segel !!!
Log in to replyHiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii !!!
YES Jason Segel I second third that or whatever oh gosh yes! He was one of the few very things that made me feel like Disney didn’t ruin the Muppets movie.
And yeah now that I think about it, most Don Draper’s answers weren’t super helpful but the first one rules: “Give the guy a break!” Well, it was helpful to me, because I’m like in the same situation. Ok I’ll stop writing now.
segal!!! yah!
Log in to replyYes!!!!
Log in to replyoh, hamm! this video series is one of the best things ever discovered!!
Log in to replyLove this man so much. He was hilarious in Bridesmaids. Awkwardish ending but he’s so funny! Go watch the Hunger Games. :)

I like the way he didn’t kind of over advice give. Because I think it’s true that sometimes the answer is; to not worry so much, chill out and be yourself and stuff and I think he really got that across by not getting into so much. Cute times with the hamminator and his super hilarious dead pan humour. :)
Log in to replyOMFG!
Log in to replyIT JUST GET BETTER!!
Dear Jon,
I thought I only loved Don but now I love you too. And I love Mad Men, like I think we all do otherwise we wouldn’t be so excited about you answering questions about boys!
Log in to reply“too young to watch mad men” hahahahahaha he has no idea who he is dealing with. three cheers to rookie readers for being totally like contrary and stuff like right guize?
Log in to replythese are videos are one of the best things the internet provides.
Log in to replyjon effin hamm!!!! he’s soooo cute and funny! can’t stop smiling. i love him. :)))
Log in to reply“”"”stuff”"”"
Log in to replyoh god, i can’t even!
this was amazing! love jon hamm and all of his answers were amazing!
“sixteen-ish” hahaha
This is why I love rookie. I mean, it’s Jon Hamm talking about farts and stuff!
Log in to replyMaking out is fun. True story.
Log in to replyCould we get Joel McHale to do one of these? Or any of the guys from Community actually. That’d be great.
Log in to replyDonald Glover would be SO good
Log in to replyYes, yes and yes to Donald Glover. That would be perfection.
Log in to replyWhile we’re on the topic of suggestions, I’ll make a non-Community one:
John Mulaney — that would make my life.
why does he look worried? haha lovely man
Log in to replyI think I will go lie down to die now
Log in to replyi just wanna kiss his entire face~
Log in to replyWOWOWOWOWWOWOWOWOWOW!! JON FRICKIN HAMM?!
gets better and better. unreal.
Log in to replyI do believe I just made a noise after watching that that could be very closely compared with a pig squeal.
John Hamm is probably just, like, the most awesome 41-year-old that I know. Because NOW, you know, I TOTALLY know him.
hahaha….
Log in to replyThis video just made it to the front page of reddit, in case anyone was wondering where the view count came from. Good job rookie!
Log in to replyplease have neil gaiman do one of these?!
Log in to replyAm I the only one who thinks he was a bit of a jerk?
Log in to replyjust saw this in yahoo – awesome!
http://shine.yahoo.com/love-sex/jon-hamm-8217-relationship-advice-teens-goes-viral-162900795.html
Log in to replyHe’s wearing a Cardinals world series shirt! Go St. Louis, represent!!
Log in to replyThis was on Yahoo! and Reddit. Haha, go Rookie!
Log in to replyFrom now on, I want to see baby/teenage pictures of every Grown Man who is featured on this website omg.
Log in to reply“I was under the impression that girls didn’t fart… so… ehhh.” hahahaha Jon Hamm your face is pricless :P
Log in to replySo… when I saw that Yahoo had done an article about how this was on Rookie, I totally spammed the comments section talking about how amazing Rookie is, and all these people were just like, “Go away,” and I was just like “no.”
Log in to replyha!
Log in to reply<3 <3 <3
Log in to replyslow your roll. hahaha this is awesome. so so down to earth
XX
Log in to replyinstead of an elephant
this is freaking amazing. i love him. i love mad men.
Log in to replycan I nominate Andy Samberg for the next Ask a Grown Man?
Log in to replyhe’s not that grown but I hope it counts
Log in to replyThe only thing he was wrong about was us readers being too young to watch Mad Men! It’s my favorite show on TV today!
Log in to replyOk I just need to poke my head in real quick and stick up for John Hamm. For all who said his answers were “meh” or he didn’t go into detail…look again and recognize this is because the questions he was given were (with all respect) a bit silly and were not topics which could be elaborated upon!!!! Please do not scorn John Hamm in any way, shape or form…he is, and shall remain, PERFECT IN EVERY WAY ;)
Log in to replyOmg he is sooooo funny I love him
Log in to replyOh man.
Log in to replyI can’t even.
A couple of weeks after I saw this on rookie, I was watching an Australian music tv show when they showed this video. It was soooo weird and I was like ‘That was on rookie!!!’
Log in to replyfarting!
