Oh the Destiel of it all! Join hosts August and Elayna, along with guest hosts Hannah and Beth of Raising Perdition podcast! We talk about how much we love a Castiel girl boss moment, how heart wrenching it is to watch Dean almost give up the impala, and are just a little shocked at how early the Destiel vibes started.

It's the end of the world as we know it (we don't feel fine). If God is off the board, what does that mean for the apocalypse? Is this all really about a big family feud? A traumatized Noah is worried about Bobby, MEG IS BACK, and it's season 5, y'all!

We go deep into the fallout from season 4 and talk about how Sam, Dean & Bobby address family and broken trust as the conflict at the heart of this episode. The team also explores how Becky is a representation of the writers' feelings towards fans and how we feel about that all these years later. Other highlights - new lore drops explaining angelic vessels, Chuck hits Sam with a plunger (and we love the metaphor of it), and Cas is, thankfully, not dead.

This episode discusses Season 5, Episode 1: Sympathy for the Devil, through the theme of Family.

We're taking a detour on our way to Season 5 with a fun bonus episode, featuring August and special guest host Jus! Join the two of them for a spoiler-filled love letter of an episode, where we celebrate AUs, fanfics, and how they've shaped the fandom and the people in it. They discuss favorite tropes, the process of building AUs, and the fine lines one must walk to balance things like character voice and canon.

It’s the season 4 awards, aka, the episode where we try not to give every award to Cas! 😇 Join August, Elayna and Noah as they debate the funniest angel in the garrison, marvel at how representation for women somehow got WORSE, and how Sam is truly the most tragic figure of the season.

*An Important Note: We used a term in this episode ("gypped") and one of our listeners has graciously called us in to recognize the harm that this term causes towards Romani people. We're learning and will be avoiding that term going forward.

Thank you to this listener for calling us in - it is really appreciated as we continue to learn.

All aboard the trauma train! Join August, Noah and Elayna as they wrap up season four with a banger of an episode that discusses Ruby’s big girl boss moment, how much it hurts to see Sammy go full dark side, and how Dean is a bisexual switch king who’s just here to break shit.

New Winchester brother just dropped. 😅 August, Noah, and Elayna discuss the introduction of Adam Milligan, how much we love soft brotherly moments (even if they’re rare), and how John Winchester continues to be the absolute worst dad of the century.
