The End of the Book: A Podcast Celebrating All Things Supernatural

Back with a bang after last week’s hiatus, Rachel, Jen, and Lyd are here to theorize about how some new casting news will affect our predictions and to unpack You’ve Got a Friend -- the episode where everyone says ACAB.  Tangents include: gal pals, powerhouse performances, and designated punchers. Redheads, assemble!

CW: This episode contains discussions of topics related to racism and antisemitism. 

---

This week Rachel, Jen, and Lyd discuss Suspicious Minds, a muddled episode in an otherwise promising first season, and the frustrating, unchecked pervasiveness of antisemitism in fantasy media. Not without some bright spots, tangents include: Roxy (Rockin' or Not?), giving Carlos and Lata the A-Plot, and wigs??

This was a bonkers episode but it looks like they're all going to be bonkers episodes from here on out y'all, so buckle up. This week we welcome back Courtney to guest host our breakdown of (and over) Cast Your Fate to the Wind. Tangents include: cheers and applause for Carlos and Anton, Betty's hair, and things that might happen later in the season that would induce Lyd's labour.

SYFY Wire: 'The Winchesters' showrunner says more 'Supernatural' characters are coming

Rachel, Jen, and Lyd get back together one more time before The Winchesters returns to discuss some theories that range from "What on EARTH??" and "Yeah, that's probably going to happen." Chuck lost! Zachariah is back! Is a Riverdale crossover in our future? And what was the deal with that letter John got in the pilot? You'll have to listen to find out more...

Rachel, Jen, and Lydia reunite for a quick refresher (with Emma chiming in occassionally) before The Winchesters returns next week, taking some time to analyze the meaning behind Dean's narration and who's really picking the music.

Rachel, Jen, and Lyd reunite to discuss Reflections, The Winchesters' last episode of 2022. Woohoo!!! Tangents include: Familiar faces (in this episode and beyond?), Lebanon (the SPN episode, not the city in Kansas), and Destiel parallels (shocking, we know)

A quick note to say there will be discussion of PTSD, trauma, abuse and how they relate to the character of John Winchester. If you do not feel comfortable participating in this discussion for any reason, we understand and hope to see you again next week. Thank you.

Grab your clown nose and a box of kleenex because this week Rachel, Jen, and Lyd are talking about Masters of War. It starts off John-centric but there's a lot going on here with everyone in the Core Four. Tangents include: a quick musical jaunt down to Hadestown, a conspicuous Throwback Thursday post, and the assertion that no one on this show is heterosexual.
