Hosts Maggie S and Nathaniel J do deep-dives into episodes of Buffy:The Vampire Slayer and Angel, two episodes at a time. They try to provide intellectual and emotional connections to the material, discuss the social and ethical issues contained both within the shows and in the show’s production, while also discussing the journey of making a podcast with emotional and intellectual honesty.
This week, Nathaniel and Maggie celebrate Thanksgiving in July with Buffy episode Pangs, and then break out the kleenex for Angel episode I Will Remember You. Topics include problematic themes, crossovers, and the comparisons between IWRY and Becoming Part 2.

This week on Insane Troll Logic, Nathaniel and Maggie break down the Oz/Willow break-up and bring to a close their long debated thoughts on Oz as a whole (not that we won't see him again), and generally feel icky about the somewhat problematic Angel episode Sense and Sensitivity.

A new beginning (of sorts!) for Insane Troll Logic as Maggie and Nathaniel begin doing battle with season 4 of Buffy and the first season of Angel's spin-off! They talk new characters, new directions, and fan theories about certain one-off vampires.
Nathaniel and Maggie wrap up season three of Buffy with the two-part finale "Graduation Day!" Maggie makes Nathaniel look at the finale a different way with her take on the metaphors, Nathaniel enjoys the "ending" of the Buffy/Faith rivalry, and they both love Anya.
Season three starts to wrap up as Nathaniel deconstructs the Buffy/Angel relationship, Maggie weighs in on The Mayor/Faith and Buffy/Giles comparisons, and both marvel at the fact that Xander doesn't do anything problematic this week? All this and more on Insane Troll Logic!
CW: School shootings, suicide.
This week, Nathaniel and Maggie deal with the awkward plot and latent lgbtq elements of Enemies and the overall weirdness of comedy episode Earshot, and how its weirdness is an unintended casualty of real world problems.
Things get real on Insane Troll Logic this week, with topics of kink and sexual assault (of the less-common female-on-male variety), so please listen responsibly. Nathaniel approaches Consequences with some emotional honesty, and Maggie enjoys the lgbtq themes of Dopplegangland, and both dig on the Faith and Willow centric narratives within.
This week, Maggie and Nathaniel continue season three of Buffy with The Zeppo and Bad Girls, discussing Xander's character development, Wesley's first appearance, and whether or not Angel can get certain frustrating testicular issues...whether Nathaniel likes it or not.

This week, Nathaniel and Maggie discuss two fan-favorite episodes of Buffy: The Wish and Amends, talking alternate realities, hating Xander (as usual) and how Amends is one of the best visualizations of depression. (CW: Depression, Suicide-please listen responsibly)
This week, Maggie and Nathaniel are joined by writer (and long time close friend of Nathaniel) Nastassia to discuss two more season three episodes, Revelations and Lovers Walk! We discuss Faith, Spike, fandom and fanfic, and how Nastassia got Nathaniel into Buffy in the first place.
This week, on Insane Troll Logic, Maggie and Nathaniel discuss the "Angel is back" narrative, enjoy character moments, and enthuse over the debut on The Mayor!

As Nathaniel slowly dies from a bronchial infection, he and Maggie soldier through the beginnings of Buffy's much-loved third season with Anne and Dead Man's Party, talking the moral high ground in the debate over Buffy's walkabout and how Anne establishes the city of Los Angeles for Angel's upcoming spin-off.
Maggie and Nathaniel enthuse over the ending of the dramatic and romantic Buffy and Angel/Angelus epic with "Becoming 1&2!" They also declare themselves a Kristine Sutherland stan account, now that Robia Lamorte is gone.
