    Once More, With Spoilers: 1.08 I Robot... You Jane | A Buffy the Vampire Slayer Podcast

    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! Online dating can be MURDER, am I right?! Moloch has entered the chat (literally), Jenny Calendar has entered the chat (figuratively… and also literally), Buffy goes undercover, Willow engages in the type of romance that’s swiftly becoming the Scooby standard (brief, violent, supernatural), and we’re all left wondering if that’s not where it dangles… where EXACTLY does it dangle??? Thanks for logging on to Season 1, Episode 8, “I, Robot... You, Jane.” If you’re not jacked in, you’re not alive.

    Once More, With Spoilers: Watcher's Diary #1

    Welcome to our very first Watcher's Diary!! In this very sacred space we will read and chat about some of our very favorite listener emails, and sometimes also tackle our world-renowned segment, What Was Dawn Doing.  In this first installment, we will dig into What Dawn Was Doing during the episode "Angel" (and along the way ponder on what kind of cologne Angel wears...) and hear about hyenas (and their clitorises), wild painted dogs, brothers kissing sisters in 7th Heaven, and the "Malleus Maleficarum," also known as "The Hammer of Witches" (super chill, nothing to worry about).

    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! It is TIME for BUFFY and ANGEL to KISS!! TWICE!!! Which means it is *also* time for Joanna Robinson to guest host with us! We will discuss the first kiss, which ends in Angel throwing himself out the bedroom window. We will discuss the drama that ensues, which ends in Angel being thrown out of the living room window. And we will discuss the final kiss, which ends in Angel feeling that kind of pain that can only come from being a vampire in love with a giant-cross wearing vampire Slayer — that burning, searing, sizzling kind of D E S I R E and P A S S I O N. Yes, it is Season 1, Episode 7, "Angel." So happy to be here with you all.
