Ep 5.13 | Congratulations, It's John Winchester's...

Saving People, Queering Things ·

2023/06/12

What's worse than watching your grandparents die in the past? Watching your dad's villain arc begin when you teach him his first sigil. It's another 70's time travel episode! In this one, Dean maybe ensures the Terminator movies exist, we confirm that John would indeed give in to an archangel, and we mourn the end of the road for Anna (but not before we get in a little pitch for a Mary/Anna gay-romance-that-begins-with-stabbing). We're officially in the Team Free Will era, and

It's a wonderful romp full of Bi Dean trutherism, the writers having the cursed gift of prophecy, and confusion about how angelic TV show pocket dimensions function in reality. This

Dean Winchester? Apologizing?

There’s two things we know for certain—one, Bert and Ernie are gay. Two? So are Dean and Cas. This week, August, Elayna and Noah are joined by special guest Pluto (aka, the queerbaitscholar!) for a discussion of one of quite possibly the most overtly queer episodes of the series. From the “personal space” conversation we wish we’d had to the deep meaning behind the title of the episode, this deep dive into a fan favorite isn’t one to miss.

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.
