Welcome to Once More, With Spoilers, where Kristin Russo & Jenny Owen Youngs revisit every episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, one at a time — for the SECOND time! — this time discussing each episode with spoilers!

Today we are joined by extra special guest Hrishikesh Hirway as we confront our many subconscious fears: public performance, MURDER CLOWNS, bad hair days, and more! Now if it were us, we'd simply never start collecting live spiders, thus removing the threat they might one day accidentally perish under a left-on-too-long heat lamp and eventually seek their spidery vengeance... but to each their own, right Wendell? This episode has something for everyone: There's camp! There's laughs! There's a father’s — I mean Watcher’s — love for his daughter — I mean Slayer!

So meet us (and the rest of the Chess Club) for Season 1 Episode 10: “Nightmares.”
