Welcome back, listeners! Season 4 episode 11 is in the bag and we all learned a lot. We learned that Spike can beat the crap out of monsters, just not human people. For all of his shortcomings, Spike knows what he likes, and what he likes is hedonistic violence. We also learn that Taad (Riley) and Buffy are an item? I think we learned that. The show doesn't quite know how to make up its mind on that front. Thanks for listening!

Season 4 episode 10 is here and it was SO GOOD! The name of the episode is "Hush", which might ring a bell for those long time Buffy fans out there. When two creepy, suited demons and their legion of straight-jacketed minions curse Sunnydale with muteness, we get to see how Joss holds up with no witty banter. Willow meets a new witch friend and the gang gets some TA Taad (Riley) confirmations. Those confirmations come in the form of a laser gun?! Thanks for listening!

There is more than one way to heal a broken heart, friends! You could wait it out. You could binge watch The Great British Baking Show. You could unknowingly use dangerous magics to cause pain and chaos, thus attracting the attention of a council of vengeance demons. All valid and reasonable options. This week Willow does one of those things, but I'm not saying which. Thanks for listening!

Wait a second...this isn't Sunnydale this is L.A! Only one of our hosts watched anything this week since Buffy goes to visit Angel and see what his TV show is like. Turns out, it's a little more noir and has a lot more cello in the opening theme. Big thank you to Producer James for MC'ing and Brian for letting us visit his show and answering our Angel questions.
