Slay it with me: other girls are awesome!
For this week’s episode of Deep Thoughts, Tracie and Emily welcome Kate Moody, aka The Money Librarian, to share her analysis of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Kate introduces Emily (a Buffy virgin) to the world of vampires, Hellmouths, and why all librarians love Giles. With Kate’s analysis, the sisters put Buffy in her proper place in the pantheon of superheroes, while engaging with the not-so-savory side effects of a romance between a teenage girl and a 200 year old undead killing machine. Also, much side-eye of what Joss Whedon considers to be a “moment of true happiness.”
