After mentioning Giles and Jenny on Valentine's Day, we thought why not take a trip down memory lane.

Joined by both Mr. Frog and Caroline, we discuss haunted washbasins, wedding plans, and the logistics of Giles's bathroom all on this new episode. (Also edited by the ever wonderful Mr. Frog). It's "Something B...

No, no. We're not doing a throw back to the Buffy movie; though we could see how you'd think that given the title. What we're actually doing is celebrating Thanksgiving!

We're back! With not just a brand new season, but a brand new guest star -- Caroline!!!

You know, sitting down to write this description, all we could think about was Ursula and her "life's full of tough choices, isn't it?" Cause it is! You have to decide what college to go to, what to save -- your city or your best friend, and whether following your boss down the path of dark dark evil is really what you want to do with your life. Join us as we discuss these ponderances and more on...

Is "Earshot" the oddest Buffy episode? Probably not, but it's definitely up there. Mouthless demons, emo newspaper editors, way more discussions of tails than you thought possible...

We cannot stress enough how much we enjoyed this book (and, by extension, talking about this book).
