The Witches of Letters: A Supernatural Rewatch Podcast

Episode 106: S5E19 “Hammer Of The Gods”

In this episode Joy and Laura break down season 5 episode 19 of Supernatural “Hammer Of The Gods”. Sam and Dean are lured to a fancy hotel by a bunch of different Gods who are planning to use them to stop the apocalypse. Gabriel then shows up to help them.  We discuss Laura’s love of brotherly banter, the misrepresentation of the deities in this episode (especially Zao Shen), how in a different world Dean and Gabriel might actually be friends, and the disgusting final scene where we meet Pestilence. We also discuss the amazing fight between Gabriel and Lucifer, why Sam and Dean would watch porn out in the middle of nowhere with their laptop on top of the car, and the idea that Gabriel gives them which will form the storyline for the rest of this season. Joy’s Easter egg is the real lore behind Zao Shen. Stay safe out there, have each other’s backs, and always keep fighting!

Episode 105: S5E18 “Point Of No Return”

In this episode Joy and Laura break down season 5 episode 18 of Supernatural “Point of No Return”. Sam, Bobby and Cas work together to stop Dean sacrificing himself to Michael. But when the angels bring Sam and Dean’s half brother Adam back from the dead to use him as Michael's vessel instead of Dean, they all have to work together to hide Adam and try to stop Zachariah once and for all. We discuss how we feel about Dean being hurtful towards Bobby, Cas’ reaction to Dean and how angry he is, and how Adam reacts to being brought back from the dead and being introduced to his half brothers. We also discuss how Sam and Dean are always trying to sacrifice themselves, how Dean is hurting everyone he loves, how we appreciate that the men on this show are allowed to show their emotions, and how badass it is when Cas blows himself up to get them into the angel green room to save Adam. Joy’s Easter eggs are about the significance of the ivory handle of Dean’s gun, and location lore about Van Nuys. Stay safe out there, have each other’s backs, and always keep fighting!

In this episode we are joined by the hosts of Spirits and Supernatural, Jenny and Dawn, as we break down season 5 episode 17 of Supernatural “99 Problems”.  We discuss how funny it is when Sam and Dean have to prove they are hunters to other people, Cas’ lack of knowledge about technology, and how Dean has given up leading him to be willing to be Michael’s vessel. We also discuss drunk Sam and drunk Cas, and is Joy turning into a Sam girl? Joy’s Easter eggs are about the Bible’s references to the Whore of Babylon.

In this episode Joy and Laura break down season 5 episode 16 of Supernatural “Dark Side of The Moon”. Sam and Dean are killed by hunters who are angry that Sam started the apocalypse, and they end up in heaven.  We discuss Sam and Dean dying again, how scary heaven is, and we disagree about Dean and Sam’s differing happiest memories and how they made each other feel. We also discuss Kurt Fuller’s amazing performance as Zachariah, and how we feel seeing Ash and Pamela again, and the Wizard of Oz references. Joy’s Easter eggs are about the Axis Mundi, the Biblical accuracy of Joshua and the garden, and some near death experiences that match what we see of the afterlife depicted in this episode.

We also discuss Bobby’s love for his wife and how much he has had to suffer in the duration of the show so far, and all the zombies!
