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. You can be a part of the discussion: Send us a text or voice message at stillslayingfeedback@gmail.com or comment at facebook.com/groups/podcastica and we'll respond on the air.

“What we once were informs all that we have become. The same love will infect our hearts, even if they no longer beat. Simple death won't change that.”
Penny and Sam dig into the meaning of the word, “prodigal” and the parable of The Prodigal Son, with some diversions into webcams, relative height on screen, vampire mental health, gender roles, vampire jazz hands, mayoral fashion choices, fire safety, and daddy issues.
Next time we’ll be talking about Buffy Season 4, Episode 15, “This Year’s Girl.”
Keep Slaying!
