The eX-Files: Season 2 Trailer | An X-Files Podcast

Buffering: A Rewatch Adventure began in 2016 with Buffering the Vampire Slayer, an episodic rewatch of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, hosted by Jenny Owen Youngs and Kristin Russo — and now continues through some of the most iconic genre shows rooted in the 90s and 00s.

TV & Film

THE X-FILES ARE RE-OPENED, SMUG BITCHES! Daddy Skinner said let's goooooooo!! Also: Scully is somewhere in the sky, Mulder's hair has one fleeting non-duckling moment while drenched in rain, and Duane Barry answers the question on all of our minds — "Who took Scully?" — very clearly: THEMMMMMMM!

Re-Broadcast: Buffering the Vampire Slayer in Conversation with Ira Madison III on 3.20 "The Prom"

To mark the 25th Anniversary of Buffy's Season 3, Episode 19: "Enemies," we are rebroadcasting our Buffering episode from back in 2018 — with special, beloved guest (and velvet choker owner), Hrishikesh Hirway. In re-listening to this episode we also learned that our conversation on "Enemies" also marks the very first time that Jenny told us the now-infamous tale of The Woman Who Had Two Pennies.
Please enjoy, and take this opportunity to kiss your best gal pal on the forehead.
