Pop Culture Role Call

Welcome to season 7 episode 14 everyone! Giles is back in full swing helping with the whole impending apocalypse thing. But while he is making horrifically violent and information flash cards where are Buffy and Xander? Maybe on a date or two? A really dangerous game in Sunnydale. Thanks for listening!

It's season 7 episode 13 this week and we have some serious developments to discuss! Spike is in really rough shape, even more than usual. Can Buffy get him the help he needs before the chip in his brain re-kills him? Meanwhile, Willow and Warren are seemingly sharing a single body and wrestling for control of it. But he is dead, so, how is that possible? Is this The First's doing or is it something else? Thanks for listening!

Welcome to season 7 episode 12! At this point the gang is adding new potentials like it's going out of style. But can Buffy do her part to prepare them all for the short, brutal life of a Slayer? Not alone, given her qualities as an educator. Luckily she has the help of a stable and trustworthy ally. Which is Spike, obviously. Thanks for listening!

Welcome back to season 7! After a few weeks away, the gang's here and ready to dive into the final episodes of the series. Buffy is teaching the new potential slayers some hard lessons in episode 11. Lessons like "Buffy is super strong and can kill pretty much anything." and "We can communicate telepathically now." These fresh faces need to understand the dangers of Sunnydale before they go getting themselves dead. Though, if I were a betting man, I would put down money on a few dead teens in the coming months. Thanks for listening!

We're halfway done with season 7 which means we are going to take our regular small break from Buffy. This week we have a movie for you! The gang sat down to watch Bad Times at the El Royale. A great movie by all accounts. A movie where everyone has a secret, everyone has a gun, and everyone has an attitude. Next week there won't be an episode, but then we are off to finish the show!

Season 7 episode 10 is here and so is Giles! He is back from his overseas horse ranch, or whatever it is he is doing nowadays. He also brought us some new friends who love cookies and are into murdering vampires. If we need an army to beat "The First" then we are moving in the right direction. Thanks for listening!

It's season 7 episode 9 this week! Spike is back in the Summer's home with the rest of the gang. But, it's not all sunshine and rainbows. The opposite, actually. Buffy is still convinced there is something to be done, some way we can help William the Bloody get back on the straight and narrow. Maybe Andrew has a thought or two? If Xander and Anya don't slap the boy to death first. Thanks for listening!

Welcome to season 7 episode 8, y'all! Sunnydale continues to spiral into the strange and the surreal this week. There continue to be more questions than answers, with new questions popping up behind every corner. But the big ol "What should we make of Spike" question is still the cream of the crop. Thanks for listening!

Season 7 episode 7 is here, folks! But shhhhhh, don't tell Mike what happened! He didn't get to see anything. It can be our little secret. You know, about how vampires are connected to some kind of evil hivemind. Or, how Willow may have met said hivemind. Thanks for listening!

This week the gang gets round two of those pesky love spells. Unfortunately, this time we've got bazookas, slut-shaming, and sacrificial letterman jackets. We frankly aren't sure where we are, and we question if we're even on this mortal plane. Thanks for listening!
