Good news: Darla's back! Bad news: Angel doesn't quite take that (or the fact that she's super pregnant) like the enlightened "manpire" he claims to be. To be perfectly honest, Angel's behavior is pretty disappointing... but fortunately, this episode is not! Join your hosts LaToya Ferguson and Morgan Lutich (AKA the Cordelia and Fred of the Bufferingverse, AKA Bones and Also Bones, AKA the Gunn Squad, AKA Theodore K. Mullins and Frank Scabopolis) as they unpack "Offspring," a story about kyrumption, moira, and the Buffyverse's less-than-flattering views on sex.

Hey, Scoobies. Remember that young man Angel broke out of his own personal Hell dimension in order to save Cordelia's life back in "That Vision Thing?" Well, uh... he's back now. And as it turns out, there was a very good reason he was in his own personal Hell dimension. (Sorry again for Angel's behavior, Skip.) Join your hosts LaToya Ferguson and Morgan Lutich (AKA the Cordelia and Fred of the Bufferingverse, AKA Bones and Also Bones, AKA the Gunn Squad) as they unpack "Billy," a story about primordial misogyny in men -- whatever that means.

The crack detectives over at Angel Investigations still have yet to be paid for a case this season, but you know what they have done, Scoobies? No, Cordy hasn't had a vision yet. No, Gunn hasn't made amends with Lorne. No, Wesley hasn't found an Angel impression that isn't all forehead. And no, despite what we went through last episode -- horny body swap shenanigans -- Angel hasn't stopped being super charming to Fred. But now, they have finally met Fred's parents! That's right, Fred has parents, y'all. And now, they are no longer "Fredless." Join LaToya Ferguson as she and guest host Brittany Ashley (maybe you've heard of her) sing offkey in between talking all things Fred and "Fredless."

Four episodes into this season of Angel, and Angel Investigations still hasn't done a paid case. (So maybe get off your high horse about that whole saving people for money thing, characters over on the B-word show.) But you know what they have done? Well, besides tackling race relations, they have also given us another body swap episode to add to the canon, with "Carpe Noctem." Behold what is arguably the horniest episode of Angel, to the point where even the official WB promos for it included dick jokes for the episode's subtitle. (Seriously.) Join LaToya Ferguson as she and guest host Morgan Lutich unpack all the horniness of this episode -- whether they like it or not -- as well as the glaring logistics of the fact that no one immediately said, "Hey, Angel's been body swapped!" This is a strange one, Scoobies.

So... Remember how Gunn decided to simply ignore all of his problems at home during the Pylea arc at the end of Angel Season 2? Well, those problems have popped right back up, and well, Gunn continues to handle them poorly. Really poorly. Almost as if there was a lack of interest in even telling the story of Gunn's problems at all. That's right: It's "That Old Gang of Mine" time, and as it turns out, Angel the series has *not* gotten better at tackling human race relations. Join LaToya Ferguson as she and guest host Mack MacDade get to the bottom of why this episode doesn't work, how it actually could have worked, and Angel's (mmm, Angel) casual leather pants. (Look, it's not all about heavy issues. Sometimes it's just about Angel in leather pants.)

Don't know if you've heard, but Cordelia's visions from TPTB are *literally* killing her. So keeping that in mind, "That Vision Thing" finds a way to make that whole dilemma even worse -- and it's all Kal Penn's fault! (Though it is nice when Fred compares Cordelia to a dog and when Angel... compares Cordelia to a car. Look, you've gotta take the small victories sometimes.) Join LaToya Ferguson as she continues to embark on this journey as Angel on Top's new-and-nervous host, this week with the help of guest host Connor Goldsmith, possibly the only person who can challenge LaToya in terms of Angel nerd cred.

In the Season 2 finale of Angel, the team at Angel Investigations have to find the portal to get back to LA before Groosalugg slays Angel and Cordelia's powers are transferred, or before someone has to try one of Fred's bark enchiladas. Harsh barley! 

This week we are also beyond excited to welcome LaToya Ferguson as the incoming host for Season 3 of Angel on Top, but also as our guest for this episode! You can follow LaToya at @lafergs on Twitter. Follow us @angelontopcast or join our Patreon on patreon.com/angelontopcast. 

After two seasons, Britt and Laura bid adieu. You can follow them at @britt27ash and @la_wa - we'll miss you!
