Customer Reviews
Love love love!!
OG obsessed fan of Buffy and have become obsessed with this podcast and their take on it! Rewatching now and seeing it in a whole new light. Thank you for creating this wonderful podcast for us die hard fans. Special shout out to Lani for her love of Spike! :) so enjoy!!
Such a pleasure to listen to!
I really love the depth of analysis of BtVS in this podcast along with the deep love of the show and the enjoyment. I laugh, I learn and I really appreciate this amazing podcast!
I got so much more from watching along with this podcast than just watching BtVS itself. Such great insights and so many eternal human themes that make you see how even 25 years later, Buffy has something to say.
Final episode nails it
Learned a lot about story from the podcast. But the thing that just blew my mind was the simple edit of deleting “ No you don’t” and leaving “Thanks for saying it”. Worth the price of admission.
