Chris and Graham welcome host of the JV Club podcast, Janet Varney, into the nerd HQ. Janet talks about how her podcast has evolved since it started a year ago. Graham recommends Emperor as a good film about post WWII Japan. Chris was let way down by The Sweeney. Then all three talk about the Oscars. Janet tells some great stories about Danny DeVito at San Francisco Sketch Fest. A good line-up of new DVDs. And two nice films coming out this weeekend. Nerd it up like Suzanne Pleshette!
