We're three fans of Supernatural, and those gorgeous Winchester boys, who are going through every episode examining the canon, fanon, and our own headcanons as they pertain to Wincest and the show in general.

In this episode we introduce ourselves and how we got into the show. We also talk a bit about Wincest and how the theme of incest, stemming from the show's roots in the gothic horror genre, was woven throughout the series.
