Fun Facts:

Natalie did not notice the boys of Supernatural age over her binge-watching. Karen has recorded four podcasts with Natalie this weekend and still has two more to go!

Angel season 1, episode 15, “The Prodigal”
-Why doesn’t Angel go by Liam?
-Angel is a constant reminder of his actions as Angelus, but also his sister’s death
-The show mirrors the conversation we had on Twitter about Angel being a common Latino name
-Darla is back and everyone still doesn’t like her
-Darla-Angel-Dru-Spike Family Forever
-Which bothers Angel more– Liam’s past or Angelus’ past?
-How do we feel about the flashbacks to Liam?
-Kate and Angel: What is going on?
-The episode seems a little fragmented with Kate and Angel butting heads
-Think back to Cordelia getting used to demons, it’s time for Kate to get with the program
-Security systems are no match for demons
-Faith? No Faith
-Angel watches Kate’s dad die and it was so frustrating to see that stupid vampire rule work against us
-Angel is definitely the group dad
-Cordelia could go back to Buffy and whip everyone into shape
-Angel needs Cordelia around to keep him from the darkness

Angel season 1, episode 16, “The Ring”
-Demon Dating Database, sorry books
-Did we see the bad guy’s red flags from the start?
-Superfans sometimes come at the episodes with a blank slate
-Angel being thrust into the middle of the situation really shows the best parts of his character
-The humans are the bad guys, even though some of them demons by nature are awful
-Umm, maybe they should have kept some of the demons captive
-The makeup was SO ON POINT
-Also, there are so, so many demons
-What is going on with Wesley?
-Wesley is working on finding his footing as a character
-Is the pace of Angel to slow? Can they burn through story faster?
-Angel is Moses and Captain America
-Lila the lawyer is evil and Angel can see right through that
-We let Natalie talk about Captain America for a while, because we like her
-Wolfram and Hart are the big bad
-Brittany will dig at Angel and Buffy whenever she can
-Cordelia is Angel’s number 2 and we wouldn’t have it any other way

Listener Feedback:
-Natalie updates us on the James Marsters interview
-TALLOW?! Are we shipping them?
-Buffy isn’t a flat character, but she is also not truly defined to some of us. Sorry.

Brittany’s Brainstorms:
Buffy the Vampire Slayer season 4, episode 17, “Superstar” – Buffy has Molly Shannon on to promote her movie, or karaoke!
Angel season 1, episode 17, “Eternity” – More references to Angel’s past because it’s going to be an ETERNITY before we can stop hearing that awful accent
