Bonus Interview: Jeff Garvin -
Show Notes
It's a Buy One Get One and it isn't even our birthday! After checking out the Must See TV video store event of 1995, "Caroline and the Folks", we were thrilled to get to talk to Scott the Video Clerk himself -- Jeff Garvin! Blow dry some popcorn and hit play as we rewind with Jeff to his own encounters with Chandler Bing and The Single Guy, pause to reflect on the ups and downs of dude hairstyles in the '90s, and fast forward through Jeff's blockbuster journey from guest star extraordinaire to rock star to YA author. Inspirational stuff -- way better than Sorority House Massacre 2...
