I've never seen Buffy the Vampire Slayer. But for whatever reason all my friends are fanatics. In this podcast, I watch a TV show about kids in high school with my best friends from high school. 20 years later.

S06E22 Grave
“It was me who took you out of the earth. Now the earth wants you back.” Darth Willow has everyone on the ropes, Buffy’s stuck in a hole, Xander’s KO'd, Anya is about to die trying to save the nerd duo, when she’s saved by a handsome former watcher from the UK. Giles is back and he’s all juiced up with magic and ready to fight Dark Willow. Only to be immediately taken down and all his borrowed magic absorbed into the now Super Saiyan Dark Willow (her power level is over 9 thousand!), she’s powered up like never before and ready to destroy the world. But first she sends some swamp-thing elemental dirt monsters after Buffy and Dawn, you know so they can fight and talk. Meanwhile at burning man Spike is tripping out, hallucinating that he’s fighting the fire dancers and then that he’s cover in bugs. Giles, now dying, tells Anya that Willow has absorbed the essence of true magic, whatever that means, and that’s the opportunity for a good boy to reach her. Willow is channels the magic into the remains of a satanic church, which we all know is how you destroy the world, when her bff Xander shows up. Using his heart and a story about kindergarten Xander emotionally breaks Willow so hard she loses all her powers and falls to the ground an emotional mess. Hooray, the world is saved! Oh, yeah and Spike, who is totally unaware of all this, gets his soul back

Go Virgin
I look forward every week to this podcast. There's one "Buffy virgin" who was super skeptical through Season 1, but there was one red-letter episode where he finally admitted he wouldn't turn it off, and has since been converted to a fan. I look forward to his sometimes remarkably accurate predictions. These are clearly amateur podcasters, and at times they could benefit from editing out some pauses, but their mix of sometimes awkwardness and enthusiasm makes it endearing and more enjoyable. Keep it up guys!
I don’t know how to do this but I’ll try
This is my favorite buddy podcast BECAUSE of the side stories; it’s incredibly interesting to see four guys who are so different have similar backgrounds... and also the rapping. Although everyone but Dennis is too soft on virgin predictions and it definitely hurt when John compared Pittsburgh to Cleveland in the wish. I’ll remember that one, John.
What I was looking for
I have been DYING to hear the episode-by-episode thoughts of someone who has never seen Buffy. I’ve seen it so many times since it originally aired that it’s hard to imagine someone NOT loving it, but nostalgia and sentiment can alter one’s perception. These guys (and can I say how much I love the lack of overbearing toxic masculinity?) are clearly good friends who just want to introduce their “virgin” friend to a show they love. Beware: Star Trek references and brief obscure movie discussions abound - but I personally find it endearing to get to know the history of these guys’ friendship and hear them interact. I love it.
