Giovanni Ribisi and Jack Black love to play video games and one of them also likes to BE LIGHTENING AND MURDER PEOPLE?! We have incel vibes a-plenty, a sheriff who is the patriarchy jingle embodied, beer bottles all over the front lawn, and Scully finally (finally!) getting her autopsy groove back. It's Season 3, Episode 3: "DPO". Producer LaToya Ferguson gives this episode a scary ranking of 2.75/5 Jelly Donuts (They’re From Yesterday, But They’re Still Good) LOCATE YOUR HOSTS UPON THE INTERNET Jenny Owen Youngs | @jennyowenyoungs; jennyowenyoungs.com Kristin Russo | @kristinnoeline; kristinnoeline.com Looking for Buffy? bufferingcast.com/listen Find us at @bufferingcast on socials SLAYERS, EVERY ONE OF US | bufferingcast.com/book MUSIC | bufferingcast.com/music PATREON | patreon.com/bufferingcast MERCH | bufferingcast.com/shop PODCAST SCHEDULE | bufferingcast.com/jennycalendar Produced by: Kristin Russo, Jenny Owen Youngs, and LaToya Ferguson Edited by: Mak Kellerman Logo: Devan Power We acknowledge that we and our team are occupying unceded and stolen lands and territories.
