Dance, podcast, dance! Break out your fushigis and don't forget your dance belts, we're watching Labyrinth.  Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by http://nouvellas.bandcamp.com/">Nouvellas
This week we're talking Snipe Hunting. Everything you need to know to track the elusive snipe. Also buttons. What about buttons? Honestly we don't have to tell you. It only has to make sense to us.  Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by http://nouvellas.bandcamp.com/">Nouvellas
This week we're covering Jawbreaker. Not the band, we did that. Not the candy, this isn't a candy podcast. We're discussing the dark 90's comedy that sits somewhere between Heathers and Mean Girls in both tone and body count. Learn it. Live it. Podcast about it.  Baby You Change Your Mind" by http://nouvellas.bandcamp.com/">Nouvellas
We're really excited to learn about hockey from the hot new hockey show, Heated Rivalry.  Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by http://nouvellas.bandcamp.com/">Nouvellas
It's the end of a year. A good one? No. But a one! Great job year, your were...Anyway here's the breakdown of what happened.  Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by http://nouvellas.bandcamp.com/">Nouvellas
Happy Chrimus! This week on Still Buffering, we're squeezing out the last bit of the holiday with a somewhat traditional viewing of a kind of bad Christmas movie. But good bad, not bad bad, girlboss Ms. Doubtfire good bad. How much does snowboarding even cost?   Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by http://nouvellas.bandcamp.com/">Nouvellas
It's time to slap n chop, microzap, and instapolymelt it, because we're talking the classic late night informercials of the 80's and 90's, when plastics weren't micro, they were all over your food. Also a raccoon got really drunk and we all connected with it spiritually. Weird times.  Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by http://nouvellas.bandcamp.com/">Nouvellas
This week Teylor makes Sydnee listen to another punk band. Though they mainly talk about other stuff. IDK.  Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by http://nouvellas.bandcamp.com/">Nouvellas
This week, we're returning to Silent Hill yet again to discuss the survival horror series newest offering; Silent Hill F. What does the F stand for? Well no spoilers but my current best guess is frenemy.  Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by http://nouvellas.bandcamp.com/">Nouvellas
It's hard out here for a podcast. But not when we're showing love to the coolest of the cool Lily Allen. Join us as we talk about current tiktok trends, Allen's amazing songwriting prowess, and how deeply uncomfortable we are with a freaked out David Harbour. Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by http://nouvellas.bandcamp.com/">Nouvellas
Alas, spooky season has ended, but we have one last scare for you! Specifically, Chuck Tingle's 2023 novel Camp Damascus, a supernatural horror story about conversion therapy. What's more terrifying than ignorance and hate disguised as religious dogma? Ignorance and hate disguised as religious dogma that also makes you vomit flies.  Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by http://nouvellas.bandcamp.com/">Nouvellas
The spooky month has reached its end with a new spooky anthology found footage film. Happy ween!  Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by http://nouvellas.bandcamp.com/">Nouvellas
One two, a spooky podcast episode is coming for you...We're back with another scary movie! This week it's the iconic Freddy's Revenge, originally mocked for its queer subtext, but rediscovered as a cult classic by more modern generations. If you like gay camp with a side of gore, don't sleep on this movie! Or, you know, in general when Freddy Krueger is involved.  Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by http://nouvellas.bandcamp.com/">Nouvellas
I'd like to play a podcast... This week we're continuing our horror movie marathon with 2004's Saw, the first in the long running franchise of nightmare traps and confusing timelines. Join us as we discuss John Kramer's questionable moral campaign against taking life for granted, and who's job prepares them the most to cut their own foot off.  Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by http://nouvellas.bandcamp.com/">Nouvellas
As our spooky month of scary movie reviews rolls on, we're checking out the newest installment in the horror series that made every millennial afraid of log trucks; Final Destination. Bloodlines is serving Rube Goldberg machines of doom to the next generation, with plenty of nods to its legacy. Can death be outsmarted? Maybe. But not in the presence of an MRI machine.   Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by http://nouvellas.bandcamp.com/">Nouvellas
It's Halloween season and you know what that means; we're bringing you a month straight of spooky movie discussion. This week, join us as we discuss the newly released Weapons. Is it just a scary movie about evil magic, or a meditation on the current woes haunting our country? Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar, but a giant rifle in the sky might suggest some symbolism?  Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by http://nouvellas.bandcamp.com/">Nouvellas
This week we're bringing you podcasting at any cost! And by that we mean we're discussing the current hit tv show Peacemaker. Is redemption possible? Can we overcome the toxic indoctrination of our past? Does anyone actually know what an eagle looks like? All that and more on this episode of Still Buffering.  Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by http://nouvellas.bandcamp.com/">Nouvellas
This is a tribute to the best podcast episode in Still Buff history, BUT NOT the actual episode. We forgot to record that one. Anyway, while we're at it, we're discussing Tenacious D, and reasserting how attractive Jack Black is yet again.  Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by http://nouvellas.bandcamp.com/">Nouvellas
I know you have a little life in you left..for this week's episode all about M3GAN 2.0, the return of our favorite murderous robot gay icon. Will she dance, will she sing, will she have multiple wig reveals? Of course she will. Join us as we discuss camp, horror, and the metaphor of mothering a murder machine.  Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by http://nouvellas.bandcamp.com/">Nouvellas
It's September which pretty much rounds up to Halloween, so we're starting spooky season and watching Clown in a Cornfield. How can we possibly get Gen Z and Millennials to join forces? By making them realize they have a common enemy, and that enemy is an evil boomer clown. It works on many levels really.  Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by http://nouvellas.bandcamp.com/">Nouvellas

silicon straws are the BEST!! Not only can you reuse them for a really long time, but also if you feel the need to chew on the ends, you can do that. It feels better than chewing on plastic straws. (I'm autistic and straw chewing seems common, so I'm sure there are other autistic people who would also love these. )

Syd being self-conscious about her orders = #relatable . I'm vegan *and* allergic to the most popular vegan ingredients (beans, including soy). I apologize the entire time In ordering and asking questions, then I tip 25%

I like Ted as lawyer representation because, before him, the only tv or movie lawyers I saw were either evil sleeze or Erin Brockovich style savior, and most lawyers I've met are normal people except with intensely exhausting jobs that take far too many hours per week

If I were looking for a new doctor and one of the doctors on their website had pink hair, I'd specifically ask for that one

ENM (ethical non monogamy) and poly aren't interchangeable words. It's a rectangles/squares thing. If you're poly, you're under the umbrella of ENM, but there are many ways to be ENM (thruples. open relationships, relationship anarchy, swapping, more). Of course, the point the siblings made still stands which is that the movie demonstrated not informed and not consenting, so just NM with no ethics.

I recognize all the flaws and the fact that it didn't age well, but High Fidelity (book AND movie) will always hold a special place in my heart. 🙃

Writing this before listening to the episode -- here is the order of the Grinches IMO: 1. the absolutely perfect original 1966 animated version based on the fantastic Dr. Seuss book; 2. the surprisingly super fun 2000 live action iteration, which I fully expected to hate but which is now on my annual "Must See" holiday list, starring Jim Carrey; 3. the unnecessary, just "meh" 2018 animation that nobody asked for, and that, quite frankly, I really don't remember; and... 4. the Grinch Musical that I never plan to see because it's even more unnecessary than the 2018 animation. Hoping the hosts agree with me -- now to listen and find out!

as an aroace who has zero interest in ever dating, this episode is fascinating in the same way as learning about a foreign culture
