a must for any btvs fan 🖤

Still Pretty is an insightful and thoughtful analysis that acutely breaks down the core themes and ideas in btvs. Lani is brilliant, simply delightful, heart warming, and so incredibly authentic. Noelle brings her incredible knowledge of film analysis and cultural analysis to the table, which never ceases to elucidate some of the important ideas that need to unpacked. If you are a btvs fan, than this is the podcast for you! Thanks Lani and Noelle!
