A LONG TIME AGO, ON VERONICA MARS:


There’s a secret society! Because where there are rich white boys, there are secret societies.


Someone is trying to pin a fake ID racket on Veronica. She didn’t do it!


What she is guilty of is being great at karaoke.


Duncan, however… not so much.


And even though you thought the Echolls family couldn’t get any bleaker, it gets a ton bleaker.

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars Season 1 Episode 12: Clash of the Tritons, and consider such mysteries as whether Cliff is a good lawyer, whether Miss James is the worst grief counsellor, and what the range is of a spy stapler with a bug in it.

See more about this episode, and a transcript, at the podcast’s official site VMIpod.com/1-12. Content note: Veronica Mars contains heavy themes, and this episode includes storylines concerning violence, murder and suicide.

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.
