Slayers, Every One of Us — the memoir we wrote together about our marriage, divorce, and podcasting through it — turned ONE this past week!! To celebrate we recorded our Watcher's Diary live with many of you. It was, of course, ever so much fun. In addition to Kristin talking about her feelings and assuring everyone that Jenny does, sometimes, also have feelings we discussed our favorite children's books, TOLD MANY POD SECRETS, and found out everything Kristin forgot about Lord of the Rings. Something for everyone!

Welcome to The eX-Files, a Beyond Buffering podcast where hosts Jenny Owen Youngs and Kristin Russo cover The X-Files one episode at a time, spoiler free.

Giovanni Ribisi and Jack Black love to play video games and one of them also likes to BE LIGHTENING AND MURDER PEOPLE?! We have incel vibes a-plenty, a sheriff who is the patriarchy jingle embodied, beer bottles all over the front lawn, and Scully finally (finally!) getting her autopsy groove back. It's Season 3, Episode 3: "DPO".

Producer LaToya Ferguson gives this episode a scary ranking of 2.75/5 Jelly Donuts (They’re From Yesterday, But They’re Still Good)

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!

Uh-oh, time for some feelings. Sunnydale High is cocooned in wasps, Angelus — who in any form only has eyes for Buffy — is infected by poltergeist love, Giles is trying to communicate with the ghost of Jenny Calendar, and Buffy cannot forgive herself. We get the kiss we've wished for since Innocence and then, in true Buffyverse style, one more punch in the gut. It's S2E19: "I Only Have Eyes for You"

Our original coverage of "I Only Have Eyes for You" — with no spoilers! — aired on June 7, 2017 and you can find it here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/buffering-the-vampire-slayer/id1150241800?i=1000386252126

He's behatted, he's bewigged, he's belongfingered, and he's HEEEERE. Der Kindestod has entered the chat (and the Sunnydale hospital) to reignite some childhood trauma for Buffy and to inspire at least one child to tap his inner artistic potential. Plus, Angelus brings flowers. Again.

At long last, we have returned to blow off the dust that has gathered atop our filing cabinet!! Once that’s done, we’re headed to a boxcar to dig up Mulder, to Martha's Vineyard to demand answers from Mrs. Mulder, to hypnotherapy with Scully, and to Skinner's office where his shiny little head is looking better than ever. 'Tis Season 3, Episode 1: "The Blessing Way."

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!

Special guest LaToya Ferguson joins us for her FAVORITE EPISODE OF BUFFY: "Passion"! We've got some script deep dives, a round of applause for David Boreanaz as he settles into the true darkness of Angelus, a funeral for Willow's fish (RIP), and then of course the sound of all of our hearts shattering in unison as we are forced to face the rose, the loss of Jenny Calendar, and the devastation of Giles and the scoobies. SOB.

Our original coverage of "Passion" — with no spoilers! — aired on May 24, 2017 and you can find it here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/buffering-the-vampire-slayer-a-buffy-the/id1150241800?i=1000385755153
