Veronica Mars Investigations

**A LONG TIME AGO, ON VERONICA MARS:**

It’s the most wonderful time of the year - you know, when you get stabbed at your own Christmas party.
It’s also poker night at Logan’s - but where is all the money?
We meet a new BroNiner, we think - but is everything as it seems?
And someone AT LAST calls out Logan’s racist jokes. Merry Christmas everyone.

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars Season 1 Episode 10: An Echolls Family Christmas, and get stuck into such mysteries as: what the heck is happening in this poker game? How much is a Fabergé egg these days? And how/why are Duncan and Logan wearing matching festive underwear??

VMI 1.07: The Girl Next Door

**A LONG TIME AGO, ON VERONICA MARS:**

Logan and Weevil are stuck in detention together - and honestly, that’s all we need for this episode.
But there is more - Veronica’s (beautiful) pregnant neighbour Jessica Chastain disappears…
…And her (scraggly) boyfriend doesn’t seem upset about it.
Veronica discovers some shocking information about her mom!
And the school flagpole is back causing trouble.

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars Season 1 Episode 7: The Girl Next Door, and probe such mysteries as whether to book ourselves in for a stay at the motel that plays the Mars apartment, how many crimes it is to impale a teacher’s car on a flagpole, and why hot teens might be compelled to wear garments in a shade we can only describe as ‘light liver’.

**A Long Time Ago on Veronica Mars:**

We meet Logan’s dad - and swiftly wish we hadn’t.
Duncan’s dad makes him run for class president.
Also running for president: rebellious Wanda! A new friend for Veronica - or is she?
Logan’s got a new hobby: running amateur boxing tournaments.
Veronica finds out something majorly dodgy in Lilly’s murder files.
And: Jane Lynch in alpha mode! Our favourite flavour of Jane Lynch.

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars Season 1 Episode 6: Return of the Kane, and consider such mysteries as why legs are not universally known as ‘getaway sticks’, why Neptune High’s pirate points merit system seems relevant only to the sportif and/or the rich, and whether we actually LOVE and ADMIRE Duncan in this episode?!?!?
