• Episode 118: The Vampire Diaries - “The Downward Spiral”

  The AMPire Diaries Episode 118: The Vampire Diaries - “The Downward Spiral” In the immortal, loud words of Max Blum: “HERE WE GO!” We know all you AMPies have missed hours-long episodes full of tangents and segues, so we decided to record one for old times sake. (And because we had plenty of technical difficulties, thankfully rectified by the magic of EDITING.) That’s because your favorite Vampire Diaries rewatch-slash-first-time watch (and still mostly spoiler-free) combination podcast is discussing The Vampire Diaries’ “The Downward Spiral” (Season 6, Episode 16). Which means we’re talking: - The lyrical content of 3LW’s musical oeuvre. - “SARAH'S LIFE IS IN DANGER.” - Director (Mr.) Ian and the nature of CINEMA. - Stefan Salvatore forcing us to be ANTI-sexpionage. - Liam Davis: our favorite TVD character. - Kai's residual Luke-ness, which is perhaps the best this show has ever used Luke. - More little boy Damo. - More talk of Jill on the Other Side. - Is Matt still part of Enzo's plan, or...? (And in case you forgot, STEFAN Salvatore is actually part of the Sarah Salvatore story.) - Morgan going full speed ahead on BonKai and Kai as “Damon 2.0.” - “Enzo Hates… Twilight.” - Caroline Forbes’ Bronze dancing. - By the way: Shout out to Eliza Dushku. Girl, we miss you. - The same things we literally always talk about when we talk about Smallville. - Y'all remember Luke's gay herbs? - NEVER listen to the Salvatore boys. - LaToya talks about another WB ship BESIDES Angel/Cordelia (But don’t worry: She DOES talk about Angel/Cordelia too.) - Our old buddy, “Colin Phelps.” - Only two prison worlds, huh? Sounds nice. - Elena's forgetfulness. - Glenn Howerton’s CCH Pounder impression, a bit that will make more sense when we drop the full bonus clip on the Patreon. - Plus, LaToya’s mom (MOTHER) and dog (DAHLIA) both make guest appearances on the pod… sort of. “IAN SOMERHALDER MAKES HIS DIRECTORIAL DEBUT.” (“The Downward Spiral”) Whether you’re a Vampire Diaries obsessive or newcomer, join along with hosts LaToya Ferguson (@lafergs—AMPie Queen, Vampire Diaries obsessive) and Morgan Lutich (@LorganMutich—AMPie Queen, Vampire Diaries obsessive) on their continuing podcast journey.* Most importantly, get AMPED (and horny) along with them on this journey.
