Summary
Charisma interviews comedian Iliza Shlesinger and her right hand Emily Higgins, host and producer of Ask Iliza, pull up for "Bad Eggs," the Season 2 episode where the Scoobies babysit sentient parasites and Buffy fights a subterranean Mama Bezoar with baby fever. Emily is the Buffy expert (she came armed with DVDs). Iliza is the first-watch newcomer who immediately clocks Sarah Michelle Gellar's ice-skater fighting style and reframes Mama Bezoar as a tool of the GOP. We get into pet-moms vs. real moms, why the 90s felt safer than they actually were, the canceled reboot, and what TV is actually for when the world outside is on fire. Nobody holds back. Listen now!
