3.04 Beauty and the Beasts | A Buffy the Vampire Slayer Podcast

BUFFERING 3.04: Beauty and the Beasts In this episode, Buffy finds herself surrounded by all kinds of man-beasts, Faith coins the phrase "kickin the gearshift" (now a timeless classic), and Xander takes a very poorly-timed nap. We also talk to Red McCormick about her experience in working with survivors of domestic violence, and how that intersects with this episode of Buffy.
