What an honour it was to be nominated in four categories at the Golden Lobes. Our silly little labour of love is less than 7 months old, and has only 8 episodes so far. So to see our name up there alongside some honest to goodness juggernauts of the comedy podcasting world was truly incredible.

Happy st Patrick's day fellow buffy fans
An old fashioned looking postcard of st patrick casting out the snakes with a speech bubble pasted on saying "feck off sneks" and an image of the executive who allegedly was responsible for shitcanning the Buffy reboot. His name is Craig Erwich and he looks like he probably golfs with the mayor.
