This week: Season 5 feedback! Asked by you, answered by us. Our feedback episode for Season 5 is here! Posting this on the first 5th of 2023 feels like a good move. Symbolically, you know. I asked my cohosties if they wanted me to say anything in here and Ella said “Cas is hot,” which if you’re here, I think you knew. Happy New Year! May it be prosperous and full of Cas, or at least Cas-related imagery, so you can pretend. Mentioned in this episode: ALL TOO WELL 10-MINUTE VERSION (more than one of these exists, but this is the one I am always rewatching) truly incredible PMV (Podcast Music Video) by @udontknowshitaboutcats <3 broken hwdyk.com quiz… may it serve you better than it did us Tumblr: https://thecascast.tumblr.com Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheCasCast Email: thecascast@gmail.com

This week: 5x21 Two Minutes to Midnight, original air date May 6, 2010. Written by Sera Gamble, directed by Phil Sgriccia. As I write this the episode is exporting. Current estimated time remaining is 27 minutes and 49 seconds. At this point, that feels like a lot of time in which something could go wrong. One of us could get sick, or not be able to use their good, quality audio which they recorded on their phone all special. One of us’ audio could spontaneously appear in the other hosts’ tracks during the outtakes. The power could go out. Pestilence is truly upon us in this episode. I only hope hitting publish won’t unleash a curse of some kind.

This week: 5x17 99 Problems, original air date April 10, 2010. Written by Julie Siege, directed by Charles Beeson. Cas found a liquor store, and he drank it! So things are going super well. Quoting Jess here - "Dean's really depressed this episode, Cas is on a bender and Sam is also there trying to keep the plot moving!" There's also Cas' gaping hole. Sorry. We also get really invested in Paul's love life! Not sorry for that.
