    #SaveTheWinchesters | An Almost Season 1 Recap

    This week the Pod Squad reflects on what could've been and what, perhaps, should've been. Notably missing from this episode is a bingo card review (a thing this episode was definitely meant to cover), a cohesive intro and a normal outro (also things that definitely should be within the episode). Be amazed by our lack of ability to stay on topic and join us for what can barely be called a season review in good faith. Featuring the Jensen Ackles long con, a single slice of pie, two dozen references to Misha Collins (an actor who notably doesn't appear in a single episode of the show) and a plot twist which much like Schroedinger's cat is simultaneously good and bad. This episode description has been written by Jamie, a host of Driver Picks the Podcast who is notably both not on this episode and has seen exactly zero episodes of The Winchesters. #SaveTheWinchesters CHECK OUT ALL OF THE POD SQUAD'S PROJECTS: Saving People, Queering Things: https://queeringthingspodcast.com/ Driver Picks the Podcast: linktr.ee/driverpicksthepodcast Supernatural Opinions: linktr.ee/SupernaturalOpinionsPodcast Raising Perdition: linktr.ee/raisingperdition Raising Winchesters: linktr.ee/raisingwinchesters Thief Steals the Podcast: https://thiefstealsthepodcast.podbean.com/ Fine Things Well: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fine-things-well/id1620103495

    1.13 | The One Where It's Actually A Sequel | Hey, That's No Way To Say Goodbye

    The Squad gathers to discuss the season one finale of the prequel *ahem* the SEQUEL Supernatural series The Winchesters. We’re existing on a scale of feelings about the directions this episode took the show from “did not like the AU aspect” to “15x20 healing is supreme” to “not sure where to go from here”. A LOT happened in this episode and the co-hosts talk each other through it, and dissect each and every word out of Dean Winchester’s mouth. Listen on for discussions including but not limited to the following: the implications of the multiverse, Chuck won theory, and HunterCorp Sam and Dean. We also spend a LOT of time working on the physics of multiversal travel. Spoiler: we do not have the background information to explain and deconstruct the multiverse/AU.

    1.12 | Will We Die In This Clown Car? | The Tears of a Clown

    This week, the Squad’s clown car jokes all come back to haunt them as we’re confronted with a very real and somewhat terrifying vehicle crammed with an impossible number of clowns. We take some time for meta, fandom, and Jensen’s birthday in this one! KJ and August educate Beth on British soap opera Coronation Street. This is an ep where the background sets and the establishing shots are SCREAMING with subtext and Beth takes the charge on dissecting them. Finally, the squad creates a list of questions that this show has 45 minutes to answer before this season comes to its conclusion.

    1.11 | All My Homies... Want More John Winchester? | You've Got A Friend

    August and KJ are alone at the circus this week, hoping their chaotic energy measures up (Beth claimed it was a “BOP” in post production, so they did alright). They talk possible Dean placement in the timeline (and the universe), the Maggie/Latika ship we didn’t know we needed, the Akrida’s plans for Kansas state legislature, and KJ utters the words “this show better get renewed purely for more John content” (tests confirm this was definitely KJ and not an imposter). With only two episodes remaining, August and KJ lay down some of their best guesses about where this show is going, when and how we’ll be seeing Dean Winchester, and what other familiar names and faces will be gracing our screens between now and then.

    1.10 | Two Episodes Exist Inside: One Good and One Bad | Suspicious Minds

    This week, the Pod Squad discusses Episode 10: Suspicious Minds, the ways the Winchesters is improving on its forebearer in queer representation and how it addresses trauma, but also explore how there is still further to go in actually depicting queer people. We LOVE Lata’s everything, want to see more of the Carlos/Anton storyline, and debate at length how Akrida possession works. KJ is VERY concerned for Lata’s new extracurriculars (ala Sam Winchester in Season 4), Beth paints a vivid picture of giant bug carcasses, and August is intrigued by the way that John’s spiral into darkness is being portrayed. We take some time to talk about the issues of representation in the writing choices around a Golem, medical experimentation, death of a Black character off-screen, and how the way this storyline is written brings this episode way down in tone in ways that feel both unnecessary and irredeemable. Finally, we talk about Mary’s “Stanford Era”, the potential for family conflict (and what she should study!), how the writers room really needs an excel spreadsheet specifically for the Men of Letters, and how THE AKRIDA KNOW DEAN IS HERE AND MAYBE WE WILL SEE HIM SOON? Content Warning: This episode discusses (non-graphically) anti-semitic and racist aspects within this episode of The Winchesters. Timestamp: Roughly 1:02:20 - 1:10:30.

    1.09 | We're All A Bit F****d (The Squad After Dark) | Cast Your Fate To The Wind

    The Pod Squad casts doubts on Robbie Thompson’s claim that Rob Benedict/Chuck appearing in last week’s episode was all in good fun. This episode is laced with parallels on parallels on parallels, and the hosts are losing their minds about them! There’s a lot to say this week about vampires and dead man’s blood in the Spn-verse, the team-up of former/potential love interests Kyle and Betty, Riverdale-ification, Carlos and Latika interpersonal relationship navigation, Bad TV CPR, and of course the birth of The Holy Water Hair Commercial.

    1.08 | Let's Quickly Google That: The Episode | Hold Onto Your Life

    The Pod Squad is back! and they're feeling totally fine and normal this episode as they try to process everything they just witnessed. The Squad talks through the first full episode with Samuel "Universe’s Third Worst Father" Campbell, confusion around the case of the week, the implications of Rob Benedict, and of course That Photograph. Also featuring Jensen "One Of Us" Ackles, multiple Supernatural transcripts, and a general lack of interest in the Akrida.  For show updates, follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/waywardparents or Tumblr: https://waywardparentspodcast.tumblr.com/,  and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts!  Listen to Raising Winchesters, Hannah & Beth's show, here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/raising-winchesters/id1643766843 Play BINGO with Us: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jA2kKJO90L9U6H7-P6vhA-SDDAZqOK8_OCG8Z8eehws/edit?usp=sharing Our OG Supernatural podcasts: Saving People, Queering Things (August & Elayna's show): https://queeringthingspodcast.wordpress.com/ Driver Picks The Podcast (Beth's show): https://linktr.ee/driverpicksthepodcast Supernatural Opinions Podcast (KJ's show): https://linktr.ee/SupernaturalOpinionsPodcast Music by JuliusH from Pixabay  Sound effects provided by Zapsplat.

    Take a Ride in the Clown Car | A Winchesters Mid-Season Discussion

    It's time to take a ride in the Clown Car (don't get run over on the way)!  The Pod Squad comes together for a special collab where we talk about the first half of The Winchesters' Season One. We talk about parallels we've loved, the impeccable characterization of John so far, and how much this really is the Dean Show.    Are the Akrida the same species as Chuck? Where is Dean, actually? Are Samuel and John going to hate each other? Will we see Bobby or Rufus anytime soon? How are we going to get on track with Supernatural canon?  For all of our predictions and a BINGO update, listen to this mid-season chaos episode!
