Buffering the Vampire Slayer | A Buffy the Vampire Slayer Podcast

We are back with another Watcher’s Diary to find out what Dawn was doing in “Surprise,” meet a hamster named Grimace, learn more about ass jerky, and talk about Hooking Up vs hooking up (neither of which are any of Jenny’s business).

Get in losers, we’re going to Sephora because HE’S! HERE! Angelus is BACK, not a soul to be seen! We revisit the origin of Hellmath this week with the equation as old as time: True Love + Orgasm = -1 Soul What a time to be (un)alive.

Welcome to Once More, With Spoilers, where Kristin Russo & Jenny Owen Youngs revisit every episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, one at a time — for the SECOND time! — this time discussing each episode with spoilers! Somehow the biggest surprise on the pod today has nothing to do with Buffy turning 17 and everything to do with Grimace — the beloved (party throwing?) (Gemini?!?!) purple BEST FRIEND of Ronald McDonald. In Sunnydale, Jenny is revealed as Janna, Cordelia is revealed from behind a pool table, Angel's boobs are revealed at both his bedtime and Buffy's bedtime, and Drusilla HATES THE FLOWERS, FIX THEM!!!!

The last Watcher’s Diary of the year and we’ve got egg babies, Xena and Callisto feelings, Dawn making little baskets, f*ck marry kill: cylon edition, plus some wisdom from Kristin’s therapist. TIS THE SEASON.

The eggs are here and they are NOT GOOD, folks! In addition to Kristin's horror at the skittering offspring in Buffy's bedroom and Jenny's horror at Kristin's request to be called "Mama Bezoar," we also chat about sex & responsibility, the arrival of the Gorch Brothers (!), and how we were forged in the fiery crucible that was the mall of the nineties. It's S2E12: Bad Eggs.
