VMI 2.01 Normal Is The Watchword
Bit of fun over the next week: play along in Mars Madness 2020! Vote at twitter.com/VMIpod, fill in your bracket, and decide the ultimate Neptunite.
A LONG TIME AGO ON VERONICA MARS:
Keith’s got a book deal!
Veronica’s got a new job!
We’ve got a new Duncan - happy Duncan??!!
Wallace has got a problem with his urine…
Logan’s got a murder charge, a broken heart and no friends, but the Casablancases’ hot stepmom is there to cheer him up.
There are a whole load of new characters, and a new big tragedy for Neptune: a school bus crashes off a cliff.
Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars season 2 episode 1 Normal is the Watchword, and try to crack such mysteries/pissteries as how Keith Mars got a book published so fast, where smart sassy Veronica disappeared to, whether pantsing takes down both under- and over-pants, and whether the Neptune Onlyplace is REALLY a cafe/restaurant/bar/karaoke joint, or merely an abandoned warehouse full of unusual light fixtures and decorative twigs.
CONTENT NOTE:
Veronica Mars contains heavy themes, and this episode includes storylines concerning murder, violence, and vehicular crash.
