Janet Varney's female-centric podcast is always a cool listen. Today's episode is Alison Brie: http://www.nerdist.com/2012/07/the-jv-club-21-alison-brie/
Also, she talked with Gillian Jacobs a while ago, and it was good: http://www.nerdist.com/2012/03/the-jv-club-3-gillian-jacobs/

Harmon on Reddit today.
Among the more interesting tidbits:
The rumour mill says that Chevy Chase walked off set at the end of filming for Season 3 because he refused to do something. What did he refuse to do?He refused to do the "tag" for the Digital Estate Planning episode (the 8 bit video game episode). In the scripted tag, Abed comes to Pierce with the thumb drive he took, and says "Pierce, I've been able to adjust some of the code for your Dad's video game and I've made a version I think you might like better." He puts the thumb drive into a laptop in front of Pierce. We cut to the laptop screen, where we see Pierce's avatar on a front lawn with the giant floating head of Cornelius. Every time Pierce presses the space bar, his avatar throws a baseball to his father's head, which gives him a thousand points and a "great job, son!" Pierce presses the space bar a few times, pauses, then leans over and embraces Abed and we fade to black. When Adam Countee pitched that tag, tears instantly rolled down my cheeks, and in point of fact, my eyes are getting watery describing it to you. It was the most important part of the episode and possibly one of the most important moments of the season. I was very upset to hear that it wasn't shot because someone didn't feel like shooting it, especially since it was literally the last day of shooting, which meant we'd never be able to pick it up. I regret nothing about how upset I got. My job was to care about my show.

perhaps I'm a soulless monster but if I'd actually seen that as the tag to that episode, there's a 40% chance I never would have watched the show again

Rhetoric like this bothers me because it's this reach for emotional earnestness that in its OTTness defies that very earnestness and paints the speaker as being at an emotional disconnect.

JV Club's set up is that guests talk about youth and high school, so there's not really any Community talk at all aside from just a little here and there.
