LOST (with Buffering the Vampire Slayer's Jenny Owen Youngs)

Jenny Owen Youngs is coping with life transitions by getting lost in a whole variety of worlds. Jenny Owen Youngs' most recent EP is It's Dangerous to Go Alone. She hosts the podcasts Buffering the Vampire Slayer and Veronica Mars Investigations. Here's some stuff we talked about: Our Feelings "That Josh Whedon stuff that went down" Tropes Vs. Women in Video Games Pac-Man is maybe the clearest metaphor for modern life as we know it Jenny is deep in The Witcher 3 When Jenny's brain won't shut up, Skyrim makes everything chill out "Our princess is in another castle!" That Super Mario Bros. movie where Mario is from Brooklyn Xalavier Nelson's episode from last season Dragonborn (ft. John Mark Nelson) Link is quite androgenous Fallout 4 is darker and gunnier than Jenny would prefer Video Game Feelings is an Area Code Audio production. Hosted and produced by Richard Clark. Associate produced by Nettie Smith. Additional help from Ashley Whitehurst and Matthew Linder.
