Jonathan is a GHOST. Anyanka is in a PUPPY. Giles and Clem are in a ZOO. Listen, we have fully entered into Alternate Universe Sunnydale and in addition to the standard chaos, Indira also wants Spike to pretend he has risen from the dead. The Spike-Jesus we've all been waiting for? It is Episode 5 of SLAYERS: A BUFFYVERSE STORY, babies.

We are two weeks away from Buffy Prom in Brooklyn — April 19th - 21st! — and so we thought we'd re-share our conversation with Ira Madison III on Buffy's Season 3, Episode 20: "The Prom"! We recorded this just a few days before throwing our first ever Buffy Prom back in 2018 <3

Enjoy — we cannot wait to see you in just TWO WEEKS at Buffy Prom!!

Re-Broadcast: In Conversation with Ira Madison III on 3.20 "The Prom"

To mark the 25th Anniversary of Buffy's Season 3, Episode 19: "Enemies," we are rebroadcasting our Buffering episode from back in 2018 — with special, beloved guest (and velvet choker owner), Hrishikesh Hirway. In re-listening to this episode we also learned that our conversation on "Enemies" also marks the very first time that Jenny told us the now-infamous tale of The Woman Who Had Two Pennies.
Please enjoy, and take this opportunity to kiss your best gal pal on the forehead.

9.01 Angel + Faith "Live Through This"

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?!

Interview with SLAYERS' Laya DeLeon Hayes

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.
