Welcome 2 Sunnydale

Bad facial hair abounds as the Scooby Gang has to deal with the spurned lovers right and left! Among it all, an evil force is quickly driving Angel insane and suicidal and Buffy may be the only one who can make her friend step back from that ledge. Our monster of the week is poet and general badass Giulia Bencivenga calling in from the City of Angels itself. Check out her website secrete.life for her poetry, blog, and more!

What would life be like without Buffy? As this episode proves, our reality would be a nightmare. More importantly, this podcast wouldn't exist. Luckily, Buffy does exist and Seawitchling is back to talk about how cool she is.

Spike's back! While Liesl goes to dry off their panties, conversation moves to Trump's handshaking abilities, Josh's feelings of impermanence, and whether Drucilla is annoying or not. Fair warning: a fight breaks out at the end that could mean THE END OF WELCOME 2 SUNNYDALE (not really).

Maya joins us again to bear witness as the scooby gang finds out that Buffy's guardian Angel is back from hell. No one is happy - especially Faith as she goes after the weakened vampire under the tutilage of her uncompromising new watcher, Mrs. Post.

We've been overrun with witchcraft! Shelby Belfast Jones - personal trainer and leader of one of the Bay Area's biggest witch covens - is this week's monster of the week! Meanwhile in Sunnydale, the adults are acting really weird as The Mayor unleashes a delicious hex to appease an ancient serpentine demon that turns all of the city's adults into teenagers.

Finally, we meet THE MAYOR! Also, Buffy and Cordelia are out for blood as they both vie to become Sunnydale's homecoming queen. However, Mr. Trick is out for blood as well as he lures them into the woods for the first annual SLAYERFEST, where supernatural hunters are trying to claim both of the would-be queens.

Angel's back on Earth, and now random people are dropping dead (mangled, of course). The scooby gang suspects that Oz in werewoof form is to blame. Who is to blame? Oh, and this ep is a big allegory for domestic abuse. Lilly Dagdigian is on board to help Lieslweapon and Joshua to unwind it all.

There's a new slayer in town! We're finally introduced to the infamous Faith, the street-wise and troublesome slayer from the other side of the tracks. Buffy deals with some major jealousy issues as the scooby gang - and her mom - are immediately enamored with this new, tough-as-nails slayer. We're joined this week by writer, artist, and model Red le Fay! Oh, and Angel comes back.

In this episode literally everyone is a dick to Buffy. Seems like people aren't cool with Buff taking a self-carecation and feel that it's as good excuse as any to take their latent issues out on her. Luckily, we have Seawitchling with us again to give proper attitude back to the Scooby Gang - who obviously need a good dose of snark leveled back at them.

It's a new season for Buffy as we jump months into the future to find her slumming it in LA and the Scooby gang trying to slay on their own. Oh, and Matt Shipway (of Meat Cute fame) also comes to town to help Lieslweapon and Joshua figure out if there is anything good about this episode.
