In this episode Joy and Laura break down season 5 episode 5 “Fallen Idols”. Sam and Dean investigate when it seems like the ghosts of famous people start killing residents of a town in Ohio.

We start with a, sort of, mailbag segment where listeners tell us the line or scene that got them hooked on Supernatural, and their comfort episodes. Feel free to email us yours. You can find the email address further down in these show notes.

We discuss the commentary around celebrity that this episode brings up as satire, and the beauty standard of the 2000’s; Dean fangirling over James Dean’s car; and Paris Hilton’s performance. Spoiler alert, we love it, so if you’re here to hate on her, you’re in the wrong place.

Joy fact checks the lore about James Dean’s car, and her Easter eggs are about real Leshy folklore, and how we idolise celebrities.

Stay safe out there, have each other’s backs, and always keep fighting!
