GBA 116 Janet Varney




Getting Better Acquainted show

Summary: In GBA 116 we get better acquainted with Janet Varney (from the JV Club podcast). Janet talked to me via Skype from LA. We talk about The JV Club, teenage years, interior design, recording conversations, divorce, acting, comedy, Joni Mitchell and more. This is an episode in the strand of GBA where I talk to other podcasters. JV's podcast describes itself like this: "Remember what it was like to be an awkward teenager? And remember how some things haven't really changed that much for you since then? Join proud dork Janet Varney as she explores the highs and lows of the bygone years with some of her favorite women as they talk their way through the terrible teens into adult-lescence. Warning: This Podcast Contains Sincerity." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Janet_Varney Janet plugs: The JV Club: http://www.nerdist.com/podcast/the-jv-club/ Neil's Puppet Dreams: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLl4T6p7km9dbx0o8J35KjWAwaiEo5tV7G Burning Love: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burning_Love_(web_series) Legend of Korra: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-legend-of-korra/id507589044 Other things mentioned: Huffpost live: http://live.huffingtonpost.com/ Christina Hendricks: http://www.nerdist.com/2012/03/the-jv-club-1-christina-hendricks/ Lindsey Lohan: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lindsay_Lohan Mental Illness Happy Hour: http://mentalpod.com/ Paul Gilmartin: http://paulgilmartin.com/ Radiolab Presents TJ and Dave: http://www.radiolab.org/blogs/radiolab-blog/2013/apr/02/radiolab-presents-tj-dave/ Say Hi: http://ilikesayhi.tumblr.com/ Joni Mitchell - Come in from the cold: http://www.artistdirect.com/video/joni-mitchell-come-in-from-the-cold/28701 Joni Mitchell - River: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVwo9IQMWM0 Neko Case - That Teenage Feeling: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qEwj0HgJ-g You can hear Getting Better Acquainted on Stitcher SmartRadio, Stitcher allows you to listen to your favourite shows directly from your iPhone, Android Phone, Kindle Fire and beyond.
