Buffy is grounded, we’ve got a cymbal decapitation, Giles is taking his glasses off, and Luke — may his precious biceps rest in peace — is giving us the gayest shit we have ever seen. We love it *almost* as much as Darla. It’s S1E2 “The Harvest”… once more with spoilers!!!

1.01 Welcome to the Hellmouth | A Buffy the Vampire Slayer Podcast Nov 06, 2024

Show notes

November 6, 2024 seems like a fitting day to say "Welcome to the Hellmouth," so let us get right to it. Darla is using her combination princess-voice and killer fangs to upend expectations, Cordelia is Cordelia-ing out, Giles has ALREADY CIRCLED A NEWSPAPER ARTICLE IN RED MARKER, Buffy takes her first trip to the Bronze after encountering a dark and brooding stranger in a nearby alley, Joyce's hair is so short, and Luke is BIG.

Buffering the Vampire Slayer | Interview with Laya DeLeon Hayes Jan 31, 2024

Show notes

Laya DeLeon Hayes sat down to talk with Kristin all about playing our badass new slayer Indira in Slayers: A Buffyverse Story. We talk about how she has just started watching Buffy for the first time (they had her start with THE BODY?!), how her in-studio relationship with Charisma mirrored many of the ways that Indira and Cordelia relate to each other, her beginnings in the industry as the voice of Doc McStuffins, and our shared interest in getting the answer to the question: is Queen Latifah a Buffy fan?!

Show notes

James C. Leary aka CLEM is here with us today to talk about Clem's incredible return to the Buffyverse in SLAYERS: A BUFFYVERSE STORY plus his time on the set of Buffy the Vampire Slayer! Clem is one of our most beloved characters in the universe, and we chat about everything from how long he sat in the makeup chair to the connection between comedy and sadness to that one time in Paris with Danny Strong...

Thank you, James. What an absolute delight.

Buffering the Vampire Slayer | S1.07 "Slayers: Episode 7" Dec 14, 2023

Show notes

The episode in which LaToya Ferguson says we were "really on one."

Spike and Dru are hot and heavy, we've named Anya/Anyanka/Jasper "Janyaska," and Indira does a fake sunlight spell that maybe is fake but is it fake?!?!

It is Slayers: Episode 7, and we have - as always - a lot to say.
