Insane Troll Logic: A Buffyverse Podcast

Episode 0512: Checkpoint/Blood Money

This week, on Insane Troll Logic, Nathaniel and Maggie talk The Watchers, Knights, and Glory in Buffy episode "Checkpoint," and continue talking about the descent of Angel (and the messy stories that result) in "Blood Money." 

Episode 0511: Reunion/Redefiniton

This week, on Insane Troll Logic, Maggie and Nathaniel take on two more episodes of Angel! We're talking the return of Darla and Drusilla, the beginning of Angel's next story arc (and why it may not work exactly as intended) and a new direction for the Wolfram & Hart side of the ongoing narrative! Come for the queer subtext, stay for the pretentious voiceover!

Episode 0510: Into The Woods/Triangle

This week, on Insane Troll Logic, Nathaniel and Maggie try to have some fun and good humor with two more episode of Buffy. Nathaniel attempts (in vain) to re-write Riley's departure (we'll miss you, good boy) and Maggie has some strong opinions about babies...in fictional narratives.

Episode 0509: The Shroud of Rahmon/The Trial

This week, on Insane Troll Logic, Maggie and Nathaniel deal with crime narratives and heroic self-hatred with two more episodes of Angel! In "Shroud of Rahmon," we deal with heist stories and the shifting from Kate to Gunn, and in "The Trial," we attempt to deconstruct the complex dynamics of Angel and Darla!

Episode 0508: Shadow/Listening To Fear

This week, on Insane Troll Logic, Nathaniel and Maggie take on two more episodes of Buffy season 5 with Shadow and Listening To Fear. They talk Joyce's illness, Riley's upcoming departure (probably too much), and rubber puppets!

Episode 0507: Fool For Love/Darla

This week, on Insane Troll logic, Maggie and Nathaniel take on a Buffy/Angel "crossover" in the flashback heavy double feature Fool For Love and Darla! Maggie talks gender bias, Nathaniel gets a little frustrated with Fool, and the pair generally enjoy the fascinating glimpse into the settings' history and lore!

Episode 0506: Dear Boy/Guise Will Be Guise

This week, on Insane Troll Logic, Nathaniel and Maggie tackle two more episodes of Angel Season Two. They discuss the proper return of Darla, missed opportunities with Kate and Gunn, and the persona of Angel himself.

Episode 0505: No Place Like Home/Family

This week, on Insane Troll Logic, Maggie and Nathaniel reunite after a brief hiatus to talk all things Glory, the Buffy and Dawn dynamic, Tara and her abusive family, and all sorts of fun stuff. Nathaniel also gets self-conscious about allyship and stuff. 

Episode 0504: First Impressions/Untouched

This week, on Insane Troll Logic, Nathaniel and Maggie bounce back over to Angel and talk the immediate sinking of any possible Gunn/Cordy shipping and uncomfortable topics including (unfortunately, CW: sexual abuse content) Darla's actions with Angel, and the "not enough yuck in the world" of Untouched.

Episode 0503: The Replacement/Out Of My Mind

This week, on Insane Troll Logic, Maggie and Nathaniel take on two more season five Buffy episodes. They talk the strange poignancy of Xander's new arc with The Replacement, and continue to explore the rapid implosion of the Buffy/Riley relationship (and, of course, Spike does stuff, too) with Out Of My Mind.
