She Saved the World...A Lot Sarah van Daalen Wetters

We revisit Season 1, ep 8: “I Robot, You Jane”, discuss the magic of 90’s internet and computer nerdom, and peel back the curtain on the ‘most beautiful woman in Hollywood’, Hedy Lamarr. Find out more at sstwalpodcast.blogspot.com and follow us on IG @shesavedtheworldalotpod

Sarah gets a little creepy with her deep and abiding love of all things Angel (while Sarah makes fun of his dark&broodingness) as we dive into Season 1, Episode 7:Angel. We also get into the problematic representation of ladies & pregnancy in the Buffyverse.

We delve into the episode we hate to love (or love to hate) - Season 1, Ep 6: The Pack. We talk about the devolution of Xander, mourn Herbert (we barely knew ya), and discuss 2 awesome zookeepers: Helen Martini from the Bronx Zoo and Mary Wilson from the Baltimore Zoo.

We are back to break down Season 1, Ep 5- Never Kill a Boy on the First Date. We discuss the Dickinson-ness of it all, why Owen is really proto-Riley, and discuss our first badass woman, Caitlin Doughty- mortician, activist, author, role model. Check out her books (including “Will My Cat Eat My Eyeballs” and more on her website, www.caitlindoughty.com

We switch it up, watch season 1, episode 4, Teacher’s Pet, live and comment because we have A LOT of feelings about this one. (Spoiler: most of them aren’t good).

This week we take a look at season 1, episode 2 - The Witch. Join us as we go off on a tangent about film&tv representations of teachers and take a look at historical witches.
