1.14 Mars vs. Mars Apr 25, 2019

Show notes

This week we've got our two favs on either side of a case. Veronica is pissed, but Keith seems pretty... unbothered. There are also two side cases, and two big guest starts: Adam Scott and Leighton Meester.

Meg announces her plan to become the type of person who wears a pencil behind their ear and Sam gets to bask in the glory of her favorite duo: Logan and Weevil's (best) friendship.

1.13 Lord of the Bling Apr 18, 2019

Show notes

This week we discuss Lord of the Bling, which originally aired on February 8, 2005. We follow Veronica's search for the missing daughter of a very scary hip hop mogul, Sam fondly reminisces about doing karaoke to Camron's "Hey Ma," and Meg bides her time until next week, when she gets to see Deputy Leo again.

Here's Sam singing Camron!

And, as promised, here's Veronica's wig that makes her look like a bobblehead:

1.12 Clash of the Tritons Mar 28, 2019

Show notes

This week we discuss the 12th episode of season one, Clash of the Tritons, but unsurprisingly, we don't really get too into discussing the Tritons themselves because they're just a bunch of boring 09ers. We're more interested in Veronica's eavesdropping on everyone therapy sessions with Ms. James and with Wallace's upgrade from expositional side piece to fully fleshed out sidekick!

1.11 Silence of the Lamb Mar 21, 2019

Show notes

On this week's episode we're discussing Veronica Mars Season 1 Episode 11, Silence of the Lamb. This is the one where Keith tracks down a serial killer, Aaron Paul makes an appearance as a sweaty creep (perhaps some Jesse Pinkman foreshadowing), Mac discovers she was switched at birth with Madison Sinclair and we meet Meg's fav – Leo D'Amato in a white tee!

Oh, and if you're scared of clowns, skip forward when Sam starts talking about her childhood bedroom...

1.10 An Echolls Family Christmas Mar 14, 2019

Show notes

This week's episode is "An Echolls Family Christmas," which originally aired on December 14, 2004.

This week Logan and Weevil are back together! But then Logan and Duncan break up! And Aaron Echolls gets stabbed! And Veronica confronts Jake Kane! The boys are all having a really hard time this week, and we've got a lot to say about it.

1.09 Drinking the Kool-Aid Mar 07, 2019

Show notes

This week's episode is "Drinking the Kool-Aid," which originally aired on November 30, 2004.

We'll be discussing tech bros who sell their stocks and start a cult, as well as whether or not Aaron Samuels from Mean Girls can play Jackass as well as Logan Echolls. We also watch Veronica cycle through her emotions around the fact that Keith might not be her real dad, and it is a ROLLERCOASTER.

We also wanna remind you that our very own Meg is doing a fundraiser for St. Baldricks, and she needs your help! St. Baldricks provides funds for cancer research, and also researches ways to provide all sorts of resources to kids suffering from cancer. You can support Meg's fundraiser at:

1.06 Return of the Kane Feb 07, 2019

Show notes

Today's episode is "Return of the Kane," which originally aired on November 2, 2004.

SO. MUCH. HAPPENS. But don't worry, we make sure to spend a disproportionate amount of time talking about the introduction of Logan's parents, and how hot they are! We also manage to squeeze in the student council elections, Logan's worst moment as a character, and a pretty big break in the Lilly Kane Murder investigation.

Oh, and as promised, here's the 1st period art class painting that haunts Meg's dreams.
