À propos de cet audio

 Penny and Kara take you on a journey of appreciation, nostalgia and deep analysis of all things Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Currently in BTVS Season 3 and we plan to rewatch the whole series (& Angel) in chronological order. New Episodes are published on Tuesdays. Why revisit the Buffy-verse? We think the show Still Slays. Buffy is both iconoclast and icon. 25 years ago she broke new ground for women characters as superheroes and women as people by subverting tropes, using kindness as strength and love as power. The cheeky vibe of the show provides a campy canvas for exploring some deep themes about trauma, societal ills and human nature all while delivering its signature witty dialogue. BTVS remains relevant and held in high critical regard 25 years later. For first time watchers of the series we try to avoid too many spoilers until the end of the podcast so it’s easy to skip.

    "If you think that's enough to kill me, you really don't know what a Slayer is. Trust me when I say you're gonna find out." Penny, Becky and Steve joyfully dive into this heel turn episode, they learn that words can be hard, recall some iconic news items about The Sims and Diddy before he was Diddy, and Becky’s childhood dinner with Al Gore. The discussion goes on to include Jiffy Pop, knee replacement, Yahoo Groups, queer representation through the years, Maggie Walsh’s voyeurism, team dynamics, evolving gender roles, Buffy’s patrolling halter, Aliens, Alien: Earth, and Willow’s hairstyling talents. Also, Steve gives us some insight from his time in the military. Next time we’ll be talking about “K-Pop Demon Hunters!” We’d love to hear from you on that, and we’d love to hear from your kids! After that, Buffy, Season 4, Episode 14, “Goodbye, Iowa.” Keep Slaying!

    59: “A New Man” (BTVS S4E12)
    Sep 10 2025
    “What am I? I'm an unemployed librarian with a tendency to get knocked on the head.” Penny, Kara, and Dodie revel in the silliness of this mid-season romp: a rare episode focusing on Giles. The trio talk about the cruelty of Maggie Walsh, Giles’s mid-life crisis, men feeling intimidated by powerful women, shiny shirts, measuring tapes, hiking metaphors, the male gaze, daddy issues and daddy issues tropes and pop psychology, “nice guys,” Barbie and Ken, Taylor and Travis, how “Travis Swift” would be the best name, villain monologues, demons in space, the Fourth Amendment, and patriarchy as usual. Next time we’ll be talking about Buffy, Season 4, Episode 13, “The I in Team.” Let us know your thoughts! And in a few weeks, we’ll be covering “K-Pop Demon Hunters!” We’d love to hear from you on that, and we’d love to hear from your kids! Keep Slaying!

    58: “Expecting” and “She” (Angel S1E12 and E13)
    Sep 3 2025
    Content Warning: Discussion of volence against women in many forms, including sexual violence, forced pregnancy and birth, ….. “Oh, and Baudelaire was actually a little taller and a lot drunker than he's depicted here.” The Scooby Duo gets into some of the serious issues raised in these two episodes. They have the “serious” conversation about exploitation of women and personal thoughts on current events in the US up top. If you’d like to skip to the fun stuff, jump to the 39 minute mark. Then the conversation ranges as usual, through the variety of silliness, like cigarette lighters in cars, vintage cell phones, the beauty of platonic friendship, grappling hooks, rules of demon deals, the power of an English cuppa, hot beverages on The Big Bang Theory, found family, “what’s in the box,” Repo Man, Marcellus Wallace, Batman, Entourage, and the male gaze. In a few weeks, Still Slaying will be covering the smash hit, “K-Pop Demon Hunters” so send us your thoughts on that. Next time, we’ll be covering BTVS, Season 4, Episode 12, “A New Man.” Keep Slaying!
