1.01 Welcome to the Hellmouth | A Buffy the Vampire Slayer Podcast

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.
