Beyond Buffering: The X-Files, Fallout, Yellowjackets, & more!

Welcome to Doomcoming, a Beyond Buffering podcast where hosts Jenny Owen Youngs and Kristin Russo cover Yellowjackets one episode at a time, spoiler free.

Walter and Misty find Natalie at Camp Lottie (shout out to the phrase "woo woo bullshit" appearing in this very episode), Shauna pretends to sleep with Randy, Callie leans into her new life of crime, Shadow Tai plants one on Van, and in the 1997 wilderness Crystal falls from a cliff and Shauna goes into labor ALL DURING A SNOWSTORM. Also Javi has "a friend."

There's a lot to discuss, ok?!

It's Season 2, Episode 5: "Two Truths and A Lie"!

Our episodes are spoiler-free, so you can watch along with us in real time if you haven't seen the series yet, and each episode will also include a segment at the end called "What's The Buzz" where we talk about some spoilery theories for those of you who have seen the whole first season and who might be as deep into Reddit as Jenny...

Everyone knows that after a five course meal of your best friend/good friend, the best way to unwind is with a large goblet of TRAUMA! Let's pour our glasses full! Shauna can tell us about how to roll back skin, Van can be incredibly helpful by explaining what part of Jackie Taissa ate TO TAISSA WHO IS ALREADY ENTIRELY DISSOCIATING, and Ben can imagine what life might have been like if he'd stayed in the loving arms of his clam-chowder making boyfriend while we all weep. Fun!

It's Season 2, Episode 3: "Digestif." Notes of chocolate horror, mulberry, and full-body-panic.

Sure, FINE, maybe we need to deal with some Anointed One rising from the ashes of five or whatever, but have you SEEN WHAT A HUNK OWEN IS?!?! Surely seems like he should be allowed some of our focus despite any pending apocalypses.

We are here this week to discuss Buffy's "Never Kill A Boy on the First Date," and also to implore the residents of Sunnydale to do a better job blockading their doors when vampires or demons descend (leave the floor lamps and the couch pillows out of this!!).
