  • Good discussions

    Slightly off topic, in the most recent episode you guys talk about analog clocks and cursive not being taught in schools anymore and I hand to say something lol. Those are definitely still taught in schools today. I’m sure it varies as to grade, but in public schools at least, analog clock reading is taught starting in 2nd or 3rd grade. Cursive is also taught staring at about 2nd grade. Sorry I had to say something because I keep randomly hearing people say those things aren’t taught anymore. I... more

  • Much of the same

    Same old Xander Bashing … every podcast does these days. So it’s very much a mainstream group think. If they are gonna bash a main Character it needs to be otherwise entertaining and thoughtful discussion. It isn’t.

  • Just one person’s opinion

    I was truly excited for this rewatch podcast when it started and for most podcast I am not one to leave a review but after the Gingerbread episode, I really don’t want to hear anymore. They continuously say it is not political but it is. I was listening to enjoy a show that was an escape when I was younger and instead each show is 40 minutes of what the Buffy episode is about and the other 1 hour and 1/2 to 2 hours is political and social rants. I am a black female, who is also educated, and ... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

48: “Wild at Heart” (BTVS S4E6)
Q: Did Oz make the right decision about leaving rather than sticking to the system that has worked for him and Willow so far?
Yes, it was a mature decision. He recognized the need to confront his nature to prevent harm to Willow.
48: “Wild at Heart” (BTVS S4E6)
Q: Is being a werewolf an identity, like being Eastern European, or is it a disorder, like being bipolar?
The episode discusses how both conditions may part of identity; being a werewolf could be seen as an immutable characteristic, while mental illness can often overlap between identity and disorder.
48: “Wild at Heart” (BTVS S4E6)
Q: Was this episode about embracing one's own true nature?
While some aspects may relate to the theme of embracing one's identity, it also explores admitting the reality of one's nature, including the darker parts that may cause harm.
23: “Amends” (BTVS S3E10)
Q: What do you think caused Buffy to go into Angel's dream?
It could be a deep connection with Angel allowing her prophetic dreams to sync, or an external force hoping to manipulate scenarios around them to create chaos.
31: “Enemies” (BTVS S3E17)
Q: Randy, what stood out for you in this episode?
The creepy undertones of older men and younger women really struck me, especially with the dynamic between Faith and the mayor.
