Let's all skip out on geometry review so we can MAKE OUT IN THE BOILER ROOM, huh?!?! Finally, we come to the inspiration point that gave our podcast its name! Meanwhile, Brian is SO MAD, Danielle knows a ton about crustaceans, Graham talks a good risotto game, and Rickie does a great impression of the new English teacher, Mr. Katimsky. OH AND ALSO JORDAN HOLDS ANGELA'S HAND IN THE HALLWAY. Plus, Buffalo Tom. *wipes brow* That's right, it's Episode 12: Self-Esteem.

Kristin Russo & Jenny Owen Youngs cover The X-Files one episode at a time.
Though we are discussing "Our Town" today, it is decidedly NOT the play by Thornton Wilder but rather an episode of The X-Files in which the townsfolk are dining on... other townsfolk! Cannibalism: the other red meat??
Producer LaToya Ferguson gives this episode a scary ranking of 1/5 Outsiders We Have To Deal With

It's time for the World Happiness Dance and for women to do all of the emotional labor! Rickie has a crush, Brian breaks Delia's heart, Graham is great at wallpaper, and Angela melds with the chain link fence outside of the school wondering HOW IS SHE?!?! It's an episode from Brian's perspective that contains more flannel than we've ever seen and dance moves that have never been rivaled. Welcome to Episode 11: Life of Brian, featuring a segment from our interview with Senta Moses Mikan!

Welcome to Once More, With Spoilers, where Kristin Russo & Jenny Owen Youngs revisit every episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, one at a time — for the SECOND time! — this time discussing each episode with spoilers!
November 6, 2024 seems like a fitting day to say "Welcome to the Hellmouth," so let us get right to it. Darla is using her combination princess-voice and killer fangs to upend expectations, Cordelia is Cordelia-ing out, Giles has ALREADY CIRCLED A NEWSPAPER ARTICLE IN RED MARKER, Buffy takes her first trip to the Bronze after encountering a dark and brooding stranger in a nearby alley, Joyce's hair is so short, and Luke is BIG.

Sharon's dad has a heart attack, Graham contemplates the value of his life, Angela hides behind her own fears and the sheepskin'd shoulder of Jordan Catalano, and Rickie tells it like it fucking is. Oh, and Lauren Karen Klein brings us a brand new jingle for, what else, that quivering Angela Chase chin! It's S1E8: Strangers in the House!

The first television episode in history that Kristin refused to watch a second time!! We've got some bugs, we've got some escaped prisoners, we've got some pustules (which we nearly exclusively refer to as rainbows so that we could survive the conversation), and we've got Chris Carter saying that the "look of this episode is wonderful." Ahhh, yes, 'tis The X-Files S2E22: "F. Emasculata."

He was going nowhere, going nowhere fast, and everything looked black 'til he found her... That's right everyone, and he called her "Red." Buckle up (GET IT?! BECAUSE RED IS HIS GODDAMN CAR), because Jordan is about to hum his way through a museum field trip, find Angela's five page love letter, and let us all know that he wishes he could be one of those guys who makes fake snow for skiing...

Liberty High has a new substitute teacher by the name of Vic Racine who is shaking things up by mismatching his socks and allowing some very sexy haikus (that are not actually haikus) to be printed in this year's Liberty Lit. Sharon and Rayanne are secretly bonding in the bathroom, Jordan is finally awake in class, and Angela is taking a stand against censorship while also learning that our heroes aren't always as perfect as they seem. This week we are discussing S1E6: The Substitute!

Angela's life feels just about as clogged as her pores and meanwhile *both* of Sharon's boobs made the infamous Top Sophomore Girls list. Rayanne excitedly touts her listing as "most slut potential" (which gives us a lot of feelings), Rickie explains to Brian why he wears eyeliner, and Patty is sewing floral dresses for the mother-daughter fashion show while dabbing cream on her eye wrinkles. We have arrived at one of THE BEST episodes of the entire series, folks, so please journey alongside us and Kafka — it's S1E5: The Zit!

Rayanne and Rickie think Graham is *the best* dad, but Angela disagrees — meanwhile Patty's dad thinks women can't do the jobs of men and we all scream "What the fuck, Chuck?!" Oh, and did we mention that Joanna is seducing her college professor on the train with Ernest Hemmingway?? It's time to talk about all kinds of dads on S1E4: Father Figures!

It's time to talk about our first kisses! It's time to figure out why Brian is putting a mouse inside of a glass beaker! Graham will kiss Patty so hard that Joanna will coin the hashtag #GrahamCrackers! AND?! We will begin a new segment to crown the very best flannel in the episode. Oh, and Angela will tell Jordan that she was TALKING, goddammit. We've got feminism, we've got Hillary Clinton, we've got Uncle Neil, and we've got a lot of sliced bread. It's Season 1 Episode 2: Dancing in the Dark!
