Hi Laura,
An "average" time between geomagnetic reversals means very little because the time between varies so widely. The longest time between reversals was over 30 million years! That means we can't even begin to think of calling a reversal due, much less overdue. If we went as long this time, it would be 29,220,000 years from now before another took place. In addition, geomagnetic reversals take hundreds to thousands of years to complete. Even if one were able to start in 2012 or today (which it can't because our magnetic field strength is far too high for this to be possible) we wouldn't even feel any change. After a hundred years or so, we would be able to see a difference on a compass, but nothing else would change.
The only way that Jesse Ventura has anything to do with 2012 is that he has a program called Conspiracy Theory. That should set your "screwball alarm" off immediately. He did a program on 2012 where they dragged out all the tired old claims and conspiracy theories. I'm surprised they even bothered to mention him. They must have had people asking questions about him.
