Nerd Subculture Podcast

Welcome to the podcast where we turn our rage into content. Each episode, we deep-dive into whatever is currently grinding our gears, from everyday annoyances to the kind of stuff that makes you yell at clouds. In this episode, we are late to the party on this one, but after seeing Avatar: Fire and Ash, Jarrod has an axe to grind with Mr James Cameron. Jarrod is a big fan of movies like Terminator 2 and Aliens, but the Avatar movies seem to be the same movie remade with a different font, but it’s Papyrus to Herculanum. We discuss why we have an issue with this.

The only way Edwina could convince her husband to watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer was to do a podcast about it. This week, we’re breaking down Same Time, Same Place and asking the important questions, is Gnarl the creepiest monster in the Buffyverse, and did the Scoobies let Willow off the hook way too easily?

Today on the podcast, we’re talking about the news that hit a lot of Buffy fans hard, the Buffy: New Sunnydale reboot pilot was not picked up to series by Hulu.

Like many fans, I was genuinely upset. Sarah Michelle Gellar’s video had me in tears, and she didn’t hold back, calling out a Hulu executive who made it clear he was not a fan. The narrative quickly became that the pilot was “bad” and that Chloé Zhao’s vision would have somehow damaged the Buffy legacy, but fans weren’t buying it.

Out of that frustration, something pretty incredible happened. A small group of creators came together and launched International Buffy Day.

So today, I’m here with a pitchfork in both hands, ready to ride at Dawn. I’m joined by @brennyboombox and @mrworldnyc, two co-founders of International Buffy Day, happening April 14, to discuss what it is and how you can get involved. 

International Buffy Day is both a celebration and a protest, a global show of solidarity from Scoobies everywhere. LET'S BE THE ANNOYING THORN IN HULU'S SIDE.

How to get involved:

1. Attend in-person rallies in New York City and Los Angeles
2. Join the “Class Protector Project” by sending cocktail umbrellas to Hulu headquarters
3. Stream Buffy the Vampire Slayer on the day, if you can’t do a full marathon, watch “The Prom”
4. Follow @International Buffy Day on TikTok and Instagram
5. Spread the word, create content, like and share information.

You’re Watching That AGAIN! is a movie Podcast from Nerd Subculture where Edwina and Jarrod discuss the movies they have re-watched too many times and the emotional connections we have to them. Since it is the silly season, we are leaning into a classic Christmas pick. In this episode, we delve into one of our favourite Christmas movies, Home Alone. A much-loved family classic and a non-negotiable part of our Christmas viewing tradition each year. We will discuss how did a film built on parental failure, child endangerment, and cartoon-level violence become one of the most enduring and comforting Christmas movies of all time.

You’re Watching That AGAIN! is a movie Podcast from Nerd Subculture where Edwina and Jarrod discuss the movies they have re-watched too many times and the emotional connections we have to them. As it is spooky season, we thought we should do a horror movie to keep on theme with Halloween.
