Boring classes, annoying teachers, learning you’re the prophetic chosen one to murder all the vampires…high school, amiright? Returning guests Addyson Teal & Whitney Pirnik join us to talk 1992’s “Buffy the Vampire Slayer”, the first STAB at the story about a cheerleader (Kristy Swanson) battling boys, blood and Paul Reubens acting choices. We ask Q’s about all kinds of sitches, like why does Donald Sutherland never take off his hat, even when exercising? Vampires, yay or nay? And what’s the deal with that Illuminati basketball coach? All I wanna do is graduate from high school, go to Europe, marry Christian Slater, and listen to this podcast!
Sometimes, a journey’s end has ANOTHER end...which is also kind of the beginning? And sometimes that end wants to be the original journey so bad that it cloyingly pays homage after homage and services the fanbase so hard & desperately like a married couple trying to recapture first love before putting their pants back on, holding back impotent tears, making pretend plans for the future and then googling divorce attorneys in the morning? Anyway, we talk about all three “Hobbit” films.
Every journey comes to an end, every saga has a conclusion, every dog has its day, every Kiss Begins With Kay. Hail to the “Return of the King”, the definitely-not-rigged-11-time-Oscar Winner! We wrap up one trilogy, discover who the true protagonist was (spoilers: not the Friends We Made Along the Way), talk multiple endings, big spiders and rank our favorite of the three films.
The journey continues! Gollum! Helm’s Deep! Treebeard! A king’s advisor who should’ve been disqualified if Edoras ran background checks or just hearing the name Grima friggin’ Wormtongue! Don’t follow the lights but please follow us & Whitney Pirnik as we cover Act 2 of Lord of the Rings!
Today, we take the first steps on a new adventure, a four-part journey covering “The Lord of the Rings” film trilogy (plus “The Hobbit”), joined by Whitney Pirnik! The podcast road goes ever on and on...
