009: Kevin Bachelder: The Man, The Myth… The Earper

#009. KEVIN BACHELDER: THE MAN, THE MYTH… THE EARPER

Airdate: July 15, 2020

Kevin Bachelder is a sci-fi fan at heart. Being the fangirls that – well – Forever Fangirls are, we had to talk to this Buffy/Earper and get to know the man behind the twitter account. What we found was a man willing to share his memories, his infectious laugh, moderating moments, and what it felt like to have Anna Silk play a character named after him. Most importantly, we learned Kevin truly is how he portrays himself on social media. He’s kind, and he’s such a joy to talk to… even if he is a Red Sox fan. 🙂

003: Buffy & the Shot Felt ‘Round the World

#003. BUFFY & THE SHOT FELT ‘ROUND THE WORLD

Airdate: May 2, 2020

Wiccans Unite! The relationship of Tara Maclay and Willow Rosenberg gave us representation we were sorely lacking in primetime television. During the 7 Seasons of Buffy: The Vampire Slayer, the writing always gave us hope for a brighter and accepting future. All of that was dashed with one bullet, one window shattering, one phrase “Your shirt.” Was this the beginning of the “bury your gays” trope or just a beloved character being taken too soon? Kimberly and Sheila (who has never seen the series) discuss it all.

**Spoiler Warning**

Trivia Question:

Fan conventions are a way to meet the stars of shows and fellow fans. What decade did cosplay start? Bonus points if you know what was the first recorded cosplay costume, who they were and what they wore.

Tune in next episode for the answer and what happened when Kimberly attempted to ask Sheila out at a convention.
