Summary
After last week's group show with Janet Varney we needed to go back and revisit one of her early appearances (from May 6, 2012) because, as a listener said, her voice is like a warm hug!
Original description: Janet Varney, comedian, actor, voice over actor, producer, writer and host of The JV Club podcast stopped by this episode of Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend to chat about why "real life" can feel like high school, Mormon summer camp, "borrowing" garments from the drama department, high school crushes, dancing and mirror faces and a zillion more things. We also did a round of JMOE (click here to see the JMOEs we put on the screen) and Alfred Schulz called in with Things You Never Hear People Say. Plus Topic Sombrero, iTunes Comment of the Week and your emails.

| 0:00.0 | Hello everyone it is me Allison |
| 0:03.7 | uh... before the episode starts i want to tell you |
| 0:06.6 | that the one you're hearing is |
| 0:08.7 | this is a classic |
| 0:10.5 | this is from the vault |
| 0:12.1 | this is uh... This is, it's like one of those old masters. I think that's a term in art. Is it Dutch masters? |
| 0:22.0 | I don't know. All I'm saying is, this is a piece of |
| 0:27.2 | antiquity. It is from 2012. |
| 0:32.6 | So I recently had Janet Varnie on the group show just this past week and I got some comments like hearing |
| 0:38.6 | her voice is like a hug and I felt the same and it was so nice to have her back on the show on that episode I |
| 0:45.9 | claimed I went on record and said that she hadn't been on since 2012. |
| 0:54.0 | And it's painful to admit that that was an untruth. |
| 1:02.0 | That was a lie, but I didn't know I was lying. Is that any sort of defense? |
| 1:07.0 | Turns out that she was also on in 2015. I don't know how I neglected to remember that. |
| 1:17.0 | However, I just leaned outside and called our dog and he was inside in his little pen. So I am losing it if I |
| 1:30.5 | were running for president against someone whose re-election would be disastrous, |
| 1:40.0 | I realize that depending on what side you're on you might not know who I'm talking about |
| 1:45.0 | I was going to make a dumb joke about like if I were running for president people |
| 1:48.4 | would be right now wringing their hands over like we need a someone to replace her. |
| 1:53.0 | You know what, I'm not going to get political. |
| 1:55.3 | Please just vote blue. |
