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’.

See more about this episode, and a transcript, at the podcast’s official site VMIpod.com/1-07.

Content note: Veronica Mars contains heavy themes, and this episode includes storylines concerning rape, family abuse and violence.

This episode was edited and mixed by Zach McNees; the music is by Martin Austwick and Jenny Owen Youngs; the logo is by Hrishikesh Hirway; Lo Dodds gives us the LoDown.
