Published: June 28, 2013, 1:52 p.m.

b'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.\\n\\nThis is an episode in the strand of GBA where I talk to other podcasters. JV\'s podcast describes itself like this:\\n\\n"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."\\n\\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Janet_Varney\\n\\nJanet plugs:\\n\\nThe JV Club: http://www.nerdist.com/podcast/the-jv-club/\\nNeil\'s Puppet Dreams: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLl4T6p7km9dbx0o8J35KjWAwaiEo5tV7G\\nBurning Love: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burning_Love_(web_series)\\nLegend of Korra: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-legend-of-korra/id507589044\\n\\n\\nOther things mentioned:\\n\\nHuffpost live: http://live.huffingtonpost.com/\\nChristina Hendricks: http://www.nerdist.com/2012/03/the-jv-club-1-christina-hendricks/\\nLindsey Lohan: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lindsay_Lohan\\nMental Illness Happy Hour: http://mentalpod.com/\\nPaul Gilmartin: http://paulgilmartin.com/\\nRadiolab Presents TJ and Dave: http://www.radiolab.org/blogs/radiolab-blog/2013/apr/02/radiolab-presents-tj-dave/\\nSay Hi: http://ilikesayhi.tumblr.com/\\nJoni Mitchell - Come in from the cold: http://www.artistdirect.com/video/joni-mitchell-come-in-from-the-cold/28701\\nJoni Mitchell - River: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVwo9IQMWM0\\nNeko Case - That Teenage Feeling: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qEwj0HgJ-g\\n\\n\\nYou 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.\\n\\nOn-demand and on the go!\\n\\nDon\\u2019t have Stitcher?
