Vibes

Someone recommended this podcast to me when I was desperately seeking smaller Buffy-centric shows and I'm so pleased they did. It's truly great vibes, and a perfect blend of thoughtful critical commentary, contextualization of each episode both within the bigger verse and the real world, and just friendly chat. 10 obsessive Buffy fans out of 10

A fun Buffy podcast

I just discovered Buffy Boys - where the hosts analyze and review each episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Both the episode-based and season-long themes are analyzed from the hosts’ pop culture, historical, and literary perspectives and knowledge. The podcast is not spoiler-free, as it references future episodes and character arcs. I highly recommend the podcast, and much like Buffy the Vampire Slayer itself, becomes especially good when they start the second season.

Slayer experience

Buffy Boys just might be the quintessential podcast for fans of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. The hosts go episode by episode analyzing each one with a fun yet interesting perspective. They are witty, engaging and easy to listen to. Each episode is a nostalgic, even educational trip to one of the most popular shows of the recent past. This is a great listen for fans of not only Buffy but pop culture in general. Subscribe to them now!
