A train full of suckjobs alerts Buffy that a new vampire might be active in town. Despite his attempts to help, Spike finds himself reBUFFed at every turn. Could he be somehow in the wrong?

- It would be nice to have a Black character who doesn’t die horribly
- Shut up and think about what women go through, Xander
- Way to make things awkward for Joyce, Spike
- Harmony must be protected at all costs!
- It’s not love; it’s just sparkling obsession

S5E12: “Checkpoint” (feat. Kendare Blake)
Thursday Feb 09, 2023
Thursday Feb 09, 2023
Author Kendare Blake returns to talk about this episode, as well as her latest Buffy book, One Girl in All the World.
Hey, everyone, the Watchers’ Council is back! Oh, don’t be like that. They say they have vital intel on Glory, but they’ll only give it up if Buffy plays it their way. Otherwise, they’ll deport Giles and be extra British. Wait--are they the bad guys? But a surprise home visit shakes Buffy up enough to see who has the real power in this town.
Hear us discuss…
- How bad the Scoobies are at talking to people
- Joyce, honey, you really need to stop letting strangers into the house
- Glory is such a badass and we like it
- But Buffy is even more badass and we love it
- Did you get chills at the end? We have chills

S5E11: “Triangle”
Thursday Feb 02, 2023
Thursday Feb 02, 2023
While the Giles is away, the Willow will play, and the Anya will itemize a receipt of everything Willow uses from the magic shop. But this internecine squabble between two Scoobies soon spills over into Sunnydale when it frees a troll, one with a grudge against Anya, from its centuries-old prison. This witch and ex-demon must set aside animosity to work together and save something they agree is worth saving (for some reason): Xander
Hear us discuss…
- Is this episode worse than “Beer Bad”?
- Xander broing it up with Spike? Not shocked, sadly.
- RIP the Bronze’s insurance premiums
- Giles was smart to nope out of this episode
- The only insane troll logic here is thinking that anyone would fight over Xander
Trigger warnings
Misogyny, rape jokes

Sunday Jan 01, 2023
Sunday Jan 01, 2023
Steph and Kara discuss that other vampire movie that came out in 1992. With a few more Oscars and an even more bonkers storyline than the Buffy movie, Bram Stoker’s Dracula is a masterclass in how to take a century-old novel and adapt it into a moviegoing experience. Vlad Dracul just wants to find the reincarnated love of his life, even if it takes 400 years and turning into Gary Oldman to do it. But a gritty college professor and a himbo lawyer are determined not to let him have his way.
Hear us discuss…
- How Kara watched this movie on hard mode
- Steph learns the hard way that bite sex isn’t always sexy!
- Lucy just wants a harem of men and her gal pal Mina, what of it?

- We love you, Keanu
