Grab your passport and get ready to dazzle French crowds with your voice, just as this week’s guest, Ethio-Jazz Singer-Songwriter Meklit Hadero did! This revelation leads to some very fun parallel-lives moments with JV and Meklit, who both went to France between their jr. and sr. years of H.S.— though Meklit’s experience was decidedly more cosmopol…

Janet Varney has a new podcast with John Hodgman! Every episode they'll showcase a new state and explore its iconography-- especially it's often complicated, pretentious and latin motto. Their first stop on their tour of every state, commonwealth and territory in the United States is Connecticut. Why Connecticut first? They’ll explain. Hear more ab…

Polish up on your Russian with the amazing Sarah Natochenny (Pokemon), who joins JV for an IN-PERSON chat (Y’all, it’s been awhile!) touching on the caché of being a freshman singing with the seniors, Broadway taking a backseat to voiceover and a whole career in editing, and much more! So grab some cheesy balls and let’s do this!…

It’s the legendary Jenette Goldstein (Aliens, Titanic, T2) who graces us with her presence on this week’s ep! From doing theatre at the storied Beverly Hills High, to a move to England that changed everything, to her current amazing and delightful creations (where the alphabet starts at “D!”), Jenette might just be the humblest icon around!…

Boys of Summer 2016 hums along with considerably more relaxed ease than you’d feel if you had to drive a double-decker, British-steering-wheel-on-the-right-side bus through Savannah with Clint Eastwood counting on you. Luckily if you’re Gary Anthony Williams (The Boondocks, Rick & Morty), you navigate everything with grace, humor, and killer improv…

Tune up your singing voice— or at least your talk-singing voice for this delightful conversation with Boy of Summer Jim O’Heir (Parks and Rec), who has surprised his teen-era friends by becoming an actor, so don’t expect any 16-year-old Jims playing Harold Hill. But there’s still time! For now, grab some Spanish croquettes and listen in!…

It’s our great honor to welcome one of the most unique Wicked Witches in the history of Oz! It’s the great Michael Hitchcock (Crazy Ex-Girlfriend), who defiantly takes us from Ohio and springs us into Illinois (these puns will make more sense after you listen, but they probably won’t be any funnier). This episode is an instant Boys of Summer Classi…

Get ready to see and be seen at a cool kids PL near you (c’mon- surely you know “PL” stands for “parking lot!”) with this week’s Boy of Summer, Adam Macias (Go listen to the "That Was Wild" podcast!), who takes us to the suburbs of Sacramento for teen bands, local acronyms, and dollar scoops!Von Maximum Fun

It’s your Boy of Summer, comedian and pal Josh Gondelman! From high school halls in Massachusetts to comedy clubs in Boston at a fresh-faced nineteen, we defy you not to fall in love (or a little bit more in love) with this delightful human being! So grab your summery iced coffee and a great croissant, and dig in!…

There are so many reasons to listen to the delightful Ruth Gamble (Listen to her new podcast serial "Hobo Code"!), including stories of singing for non-singers, tackling people-pleasing, and the sublime person that is Bill Pullman (who happens to be featured in Ruth’s new project!). So lean into the perfect smell of rain and dig into that lasagna!…

Hey! Stop copying your friend's math homework and grab a slice for this chat with comedian Rachel Feinstein (Catch her special "Big Guy" on Netflix now!), who takes you from the suburbs of Maryland to the streets of NYC, possibly in a poodle skirt. Now if we can just find all of those special guests we promised Rachel...…
