    Episode 705: Hunting with Buffy!

    The Blasters & Blades PodcastWowzer, we had a lot of fun talking about the Buffy the Vampire TV Series today! Like all of our best discussion panels, we probably spawned a dozen more episodes from this one. The panel graciously ignored JR not being as up to speed on this franchise, having only seen a few episodes. But, the fans demanded this, and he delivered and was a good sport. We might have given him a vampire addiction and turned him into a late 90s teenage girl! This was a fun interview, so check out this episode. Lend us your eyes and ears, you won't be sorry!!
