601: Bargaining Part 1

Buffy Lives! After a short trip to Pylea, we're back chatting about the season six premiere, Bargaining Pt 1 . Things are a-changin' in the Buffyverse! We're on the UPN! Willow's the star of the ep! It's WAY darker! Giles is out of the main credits!

522: The Gift

Are you ready for a couple hours of Amanda and Andrea talking about the season five finale, the 100th episode, the final episode of Buffy on the WB, 'The Gift'?! If you are, we'll let you know that there are more songs than normal, surprisingly fewer tangents, and a whole lot of love for the way Joss brings everything together in this episode. We also have a little sneak preview of one of the songs we've written for "Tiny Fences: The Musical!" (yes, we're going super-meta for OMwF)...

521: Weight of the World

Welcome to the penultimate episode of season five! It's a bit different from other 'before the finale' eps, in that it doesn't really ramp the action up. Instead we explore morality, humanity and the consequences of magic through a trip into Buffy's subconscious and the relationship between Glory and Ben. Also, here are some links to a couple things we chat about: Spoon Theory - Shades of Magic series...

520: Spiral

We're nearing the end of season five, and as per usual we've hit the 'not great' episode of the final batch, 5x20 - Spiral. Although, there are some nice character moments from the Scoobies, Amanda and Andrea talk about their MANY problems with the Knights of Byzantium, and how it brings down this whole episode. Andrea brings up the parallels between Dawn and Ben that come about thanks to the massive exposition dump from the general of the Knights...(have we mentioned we don't like the knights?)...

519. Tough Love

We're talking about "Tough Love" today on the podcast. We spend most of the episode talking about the relationships between Buffy & Dawn, and Willow & Tara. (With a little Buffy/Giles on the side) Amanda and Andrea chat about the interesting way in which some of the characters have matured, and how both of them felt the shift in the argument between Willow and Tara came out of left field.

Mar 21, 20171 hr 24 min

518: Intervention

Amanda and Andrea welcome back guest Lauren to chat about robot Buffy, real Buffy's vision quest and the nature of love. As well as how much fun SMG must have had being robot Buffy and how happy we are that Spike's taken a turn back towards the side of good. Also, warning: Do NOT listening to the beginning of this podcast while eating...weird tangent that doesn't mix well with food.

Mar 14, 20171 hr 8 min

517: Forever

Time to talk about "Forever." Buffy's still in shock, Dawn's lashing out and all the Scoobies are still grieving the loss of Joyce. Amanda and Andrea chat about the slightly darker tone the show's taken, the vast difference between Tara and Willow's views on magic and how frustrated they are with Hank Summers. (plus how grateful they are for Angel in this episode)

Mar 07, 20171 hr 11 min

516. The Body

Prepare your emotions, today Amanda and Andrea are talking about one of the most beautiful, effective and devastating hours of TV, The Body

Feb 28, 20171 hr 15 min

515: I Was Made to Love You

Time for a rousing and occasionally rambling conversation about Buffy and her search for love. I know, you THINK this episode's about April, the sad robot girl, but it isn't, trust us. We also can't help but mention how much we love Xander this episode, he's ramped his lovableness up to 11 - especially when he's Puffy Xander.

Feb 21, 20171 hr 18 min

514: Crush

Happy Valentine's Day! or Happy Single's Awareness Day! (depending whether you're Amanda or Andrea) However you choose to 'celebrate' today, why not spend an hour or so with the ladies of Tiny Fences as they chat about 'Crush'.

Feb 14, 20171 hr 26 min

513: Blood Ties

It's mid-season revelation time in Sunnydale. Dawn and the Scoobies learn the truth about her and we, the audience, finally get new insight into the Ben/Glory relationship.

Feb 07, 20171 hr 4 min

512: Checkpoint

Yes, the Watcher's Council's back, and we learn HUGE new information about Glory, but the most important part of this episode, is possibly the greatest version of our theme song ever. Enjoy, and you're welcome ;)

Feb 01, 20171 hr 8 min

511: Triangle

Is it a "Triangle"? Or is it more of a line? This week Amanda and Andrea discuss the animosity between Willow and Anya and how it comes to a bit of an unsatisfying head in episode 5x11.

Jan 24, 201759 min

510: Into the Woods

Giles may be getting ready to celebrate Gurnenthar's Ascendance, but Andrea and Amanda are saying goodbye to Riley. On top of trying to deconstruct the end of that relationship, there's also talk about Joyce's condition, and a lot about how much Xander's grown for the better.

Jan 17, 20171 hr 32 min

Year In Review 2

Amanda and Andrea sit down and review their 2016, which, overall, wasn't that bad, and look forward to 2017!

Jan 10, 20172 hr 3 min

509: Listening to Fear

Happy New Year! Here's 'Listening to Fear'! (I'm a poet and totally know it ;) ) Amanda and Andrea freely admit that the weird alien/demon aspect of this episode is not great, but it's not alone it's terribleness. There's the terrible way they deal with mental health issues and the all the ways the non-Scooby men drive the ladies up the wall. However, to off-set that, everything surrounding the Summers women is fantastic, along with the very realistic representation of illness affects not just o...

Jan 03, 20171 hr 17 min

508: Shadow

It's the last episode before Christmas, we're clipless and Andrea sounds terrible, but we needed to talk about "Shadow"! Joyce is in the hospital and we chat about how that affects not only Buffy and Dawn but their relationships with those around them, especially with all the secrets in this episode. There's some discussion about Buffy villains and where Glory fits into that pantheon. Also, to our chagrin,we can 't help but note that Riley has tipped into a frustratingly annoying territory. Also...

507: Fool For Love

Are you ready to listen to both Amanda and Andrea have revelations about Spike? Then you've come to the right place! It's an amazing character-driven episode that delves deep into Spike's history, and while Amanda finally 'gets' why everyone likes Spike, it's Andrea who's brain seems to have exploded the most in this episode.

Dec 13, 20161 hr 32 min

506: Family

This week we welcome back the oft-mentioned Vanessa to the podcast as we finally learn more about Tara! On top of learning about Tara via her sadly one-note family, we also chat about how the Giles/Buffy relationship is stronger than ever and Spike's frustrated feelings.

Dec 07, 20161 hr 14 min

505: No Place Like Home

There's nothing like a battle with a super powerful, unhinged lady in red to soften the news that your sister's not really your sister, right Buffy? We've got lots to talk about this ep; the big Dawn revelation, opening the Magic Box, new Big Bad in town, Joyce is still sick, Spike's upping his stalker game.

Nov 29, 20161 hr 8 min

504: Out of My Mind

"Out of My Mind"? More like get this chip out of my head! With a weak 'A' plot featuring Riley and some Initiative shenanigans, we get to rely on the subplots with Spike and Harmony, and Joyce and Jaffy to keep things interesting this week.

Nov 22, 201653 min

503: The Replacement

Double the Xander, double the fun?! It's all about character growth for our favourite male, non-teacher Scooby this week. We chat about confidence, weakness and seizing opportunities this week as we discuss 'The Replacement'

Nov 15, 20161 hr 4 min

502: Real Me

It's time for us to learn all about Jaffy! (#JaffyForever) Just how does having a little sister affect the Slayer? And how does she fit into the Scoobies? We talk about that, but with a lot of Babysitter's Club references, and confusion as to why a 14 year-old (even one who lives in Sunnydale requires so much supervision)

Nov 08, 20161 hr 11 min

501: Buffy vs Dracula (Live at Geek Girl Con '16)

Who's ready for some post-Halloween, live podcast goodness?! Amanda and Andrea were in Seattle for Geek Girl Con and did a live podcast of 5x01 for a wonderful crowd of con attendees. There were songs, an impressive dance and some of the BEST predictions yet from Amanda #JaffyForever

Nov 01, 20161 hr 8 min

422: Restless

It's time for us to go on a journey through the subconscious of the Scoobies in Restless!

Oct 25, 20161 hr 54 min

421: Primeval

Amanda's confused, is this the finale? It feels like the finale. We chat about Adam and the Initiative and how they never quite worked as villains, and the reconciliation of the Scoobies. We also touch on the the sad state of affairs for Riley and the even sadder fate of Maggie Walsh.

Oct 18, 201655 min

420: The Yoko Factor

The WB would have us believe this episode is ALL about Angel being back in town and having a testosterone-off with Riley, but we know there's so much more going on! Spike breaks up the team, and easily, it just takes a little needling here and there and all the lack of communication that's been building this season works in his favour.

Oct 11, 20161 hr 13 min

419: New Moon Rising

Moon's in the title, must be werewolf time in Sunnydale again! Obviously, with Oz back in town, stirring up feelings for Willow, we talk A LOT about that (like, a lot) and how it relates to her relationship with Tara and the rest of the Scoobies. However, we do dedicate a little time to being happy about Riley finally picking a (the right) side, lamenting Adam's lameness and arguing about the Initiative!
