Once More, With Spoilers: 1.10 Nightmares | A Buffy the Vampire Slayer Podcast

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!
Today we are joined by extra special guest Hrishikesh Hirway as we confront our many subconscious fears: public performance, MURDER CLOWNS, bad hair days, and more! Now if it were us, we'd simply never start collecting live spiders, thus removing the threat they might one day accidentally perish under a left-on-too-long heat lamp and eventually seek their spidery vengeance... but to each their own, right Wendell? This episode has something for everyone: There's camp! There's laughs! There's a father’s — I mean Watcher’s — love for his daughter — I mean Slayer!
So meet us (and the rest of the Chess Club) for Season 1 Episode 10: “Nightmares.”

Once More, With Spoilers: 1.09 The Puppet Show | A Buffy the Vampire Slayer Podcast
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!
We are currently conducting a survey to determine what, definitively, IS the greatest love of all... Is it our collective love for the hilarity and chaos of campy season one Monster-of-the-Week episodes? Is it Principal Snyder’s love of hating the children he is charged with educating? Is it our love for the fact that this is the only episode of Buffy that features a ventriloquist’s dummy, or perhaps our love for the peerless Shakespearean performance we get during the credits? Or are all of these tied for second place, and is the GREATEST love of all our love for Cordelia???
Lay back, relax, and let us strap you in to our guillotine for Season 1, Episode 9, “The Puppet Show.”

Join Kristin Russo and Joanna Robinson as Kristin boards Nostromo for the first time to ask important questions like "Where can I find a jumpsuit like Ripley's?" and "Where can I find a *Ripley* like Ripley?" and also "What happens to the cat?!?!?!" All these answers and more await. As you hurtle through the infinite darkness of this encore broadcast, remember: in podcasts, no one can hear you scream...
Feels Like the First Time is a podcast in which the experienced (usually - but not always! - Joanna) guide the uninitiated (usually - but not always! - Kristin) through important films.
