This week, Leo and Tim dive into the first Halloween episode of the iconic teen horror/drama “Buffy The Vampire Slayer,” and discuss its approaches to gender roles and genre lamp-shading as well as its attitudes toward the myth of the vampire. Should this episode live as long as Angel? Or should it be smashed like, say... a bust of Janus? Join us and find out!
