Driver Picks The Podcast

RIP Jimmy Novak's animated corpse, you will be missed x This week the girls cover a myriad of topics including but not limited to; the LeveragexSPN universe, Bobby's emails to Crowley, how Dean might actually be a bit too self-aware (it's all about the narrative patterns!), and Sam's ongoing struggles with his grasp on reality.    

Season 7 starts off strong this week as Jamie drops the P word (and Beth refuses to put a gift horse under a microscope so she's counting it as a win)! Bobby, Sam and Dean attempt to save the day through the powers of love, family and friendship. Meanwhile; Cas is young, sexy, and utterly indifferent to sexual orientation (#GayRights).  Find Driver Picks The Podcast here: linktr.ee/driverpicksthep...

Join Jamie & Beth as they reflect back on the sixth season of Supernatural and Jamie rants about her hopes, dreams (and fears) for season 7!

Obi Wan Kenobi Voice: Hello there! It's official, the girls are back for more fun and gaslighting (hiatus? what hiatus x). This week Cas "self aware king" tiel continues to fly directly towards the sun, while Sam's graduated from a glass of room temperature milk to... a collection of mandarin segments? One things for sure though, the trees might be mid but the forest is f l o u r i s h i n g!!  Fi...

Wait.. who's that?... OH MY GOD, IT'S BOB THE GHOST JANITOR WITH A STEEL CHAIR!! Grab your bevy of choice and settle in because this week the girls are talking about the pros and cons of long-form media, the shift from serial to binge consumption formats, and the associated impact on narrative structure (so hopefully you're into that). Meanwhile Cas takes Lisa and Ben to the spa, Sam tries to unio...

This week on Driver Picks The Podcast: "treestreestreestreesFOREST" - Sera Gamble (probably) "Supernatural should be about Cas & Crowley only" - Ben Edlund (probably) Meanwhile Cas and Dean are breaking up (again), the girls posit that Misha Collins does his best acting on park benches, Jamie gets possessed by the spirit of Arthur Conan Doyle, Beth finds a way to make IKEA relevant, and in the...

Ulterior motives in MY gay lover? It's more likely than you think! This week Jamie's tinsel related struggles give away the date of recording, and debates about which Winchester is more Jesus-core were way more topical at the time. It's a talk shit, get hit world as the girls say RIP to Eve (still a better parent than John Winchester), and devise a venn diagram to capture Supernatural's affinity f...

TLDR: War Crimes? (ft. Beth monologuing)  This week the girls are joined by special guest Hannah from Raising Perdition! And Jamie immediately puts her at risk of psychic damage by theorising about Cas's War Crimes Era. Meanwhile Beth drops lore about fandom 4D chess, Hannah puts herself at risk of cancellation, and the Apollo Dodgeball Meme makes an appearance.  Find Raising Perdition here: https...

This week Beth comes prepared with new 6x12 Phenomenon evidence (POV: Crowley Edition) and Jamie retaliates to being kicked out of her own office by dealing 10 points of psychic damage with an update to the Sera Gamble Longcon. Meanwhile Cas is building a political strategy on the foundations of his predecessors least popular policy, and the girls talk about sandpit rivalries and fishing technique...

This week Beth's mad about Omaha and unnecessary character deaths (RIP Rufus & Gwen) while Jamie's just glad the Campbell storyline is finally over! She's more interested in educating us all about decades old Tourism Australia lore and vaguely theorising about Gamble's writers room strategies anyway (it's basically all one big game of pick up sticks).  Find Driver Picks The Podcast here: linkt...

In a very Jamie coded move, this week Ben Edlund wrote Sera Gamble a personalised meta-fic wherein her least favourite characters die tragically. Meanwhile Jamie casts Balthazar as a Sam side character and makes a compelling case for intentionally written Destiel while Beth headcanons Bobby having a petting zoo out back. Find Driver Picks The Podcast here: linktr.ee/driverpicksthepodcast  and Thie...

New burial site, who dis? It's a short one this week but the girls still find a way to devote time to classic Aussie children's entertainers, Jamie squeezes in two intros for one PSA, and Beth Cas codes Lisa while somehow simultaneously Lisa coding John??  Find Driver Picks The Podcast here: linktr.ee/driverpicksthepodcast  and Thief Steals The Podcast here: linktr.ee/thiefstealsthepodcast

This week the girls are back to discuss 'Sam's Death Dick: The Episode'. Beth is excited to see the continuation of the newly coined 6x12 Phenomenon, Jamie doesn't think Sam qualifies as a poor little meow meow (no matter how hard he tries), and The Dabb Effect is in full swing as season one calls and asks for not only it's aesthetics but also it's plot back.  Find Driver Picks The Podcast here: l...

In an unexpected turn of events, this week Jamie gets evicted from her own study so that Beth can break down the 4th podcasting wall and address the audience directly about "The 6x12 Phenomenon". Meanwhile: Bobby is experiencing Big Emotions(tm), Sam is back to experiencing emotions (just generally), the audience is getting "Swooping Season (magpie POV edition)", and Dean defeats a large rock (whi...

This week the girls are joined by special guest Beth (US edition) for Beth's (AUS edition) birthday! The squad is discussing everything up to and including; Death's food preferences, Dean's special resurrection outfit, Bobby's incredible parenting coming to bite him on the ass, and Sam's weird habit of getting talked into patricide.  You can find Beth on Raising Perdition (and on tiktok @bethloves...

This week the girls forgot to check if their microphone was plugged in (we apologise in advance x). Jamie is writing Adam centric fanfic out of spite this episode while Beth gives her take on Megstiel (and the relevant Live Dean Reactions). Incredibly impactful character 'The Pizza Man' makes his debut while the girls categorise all non-Winchester characters as either 'Sam characters' or 'Dean cha...

Better late than never this week as the girls try to figure out why this undeniably hate-crimey episode feels a bit... less hate-crimey than usual? Sam is truly Live, Love, Laughing his way through life as he remakes all the same decisions from season four (but he's less angsty about it this time), meanwhile Dean is vlogging with a Go-Pro mounted on a selfie stick, and Corbin Bleu is relevant in a...

POV: you're a dog (you know this because of knee high shaky cam). This week Sam's returning to tertiary education via the combined convenience of sleeplessness and zoom, Papa Crowley is an icon as always, and Beth tries to reassure Jamie that the secondary characters of Gamble Era do get better. Other topics include; forgotten werewolf lore, Sam's weirdly recurrent interactions with vets (and dogs...

To celebrate Dean's 45th birthday(!!), this episode Jamie head-canons John buying Dean ice-cream? Meanwhile, Sam tries to act like he's always been against working with demons, Big Daddy Vampire is somehow one of Dean's most supportive parental figures, Dr Cas is in the house (but Sam's soul has left the building), and Beth shares some of her other media interests and the vindication of narrative...

Misogyny? in OUR fifteen season long CW show? (it's more likely than you think). Big Yikes abound this week as Jamie, August, and Beth re-write the episode in an attempt to make it more enjoyable. Meanwhile goddesses are ordering UberEats(TM), the PSA has Beth & August sharing braincells, Jamie applies Leverage's 'drink theory' to Supernatural's Hays Code, and the squad deliberates over the di...

This week the girls know three things for certain. One, every single immortal ancient being is obsessed with Dean Winchester. Two, Lisa Braeden is the only normal person in this entire show. Three, vampire lore makes no fucking sense!!! Speaking of lore, yet more information about Sam's pathology is explored this week while Samuel Campbell is taking his wannabe Jurassic Park to the ethics committe...

This week the girls are talking perspective (Dean's), perspective (Bobby's), perspective (debut Director! Jensen's) as Beth decides that if Hell is the kitchen bench then Sam is (meta-textually) a glass of room temperature milk. Jamie cites 'Bootleg Crowley' as yet another Dabb mis-demeanor and, in an unfortunate turn of events, Noah (number 1 Bobby Stan Of All Time) is not present to discuss Thee...

This week KJ joins the girls to discuss anything and everything up to and including; Castiel's Top Secret Body Chute, Jamie's new favourite funky little trash man, the impact of profound bonds, Sam using his pre-law education to write health & safety waivers, Jamie yet again traumatising Beth & KJ via the medium of "jokes", and behind the scenes DPTP production lore! You can find KJ on Sup...

This week the girls try their hands at investigative journalism as they endeavour to determine the origins of the ABO universe via obscure Angelina Jolie references (@MishaCollins, drop your AO3). Jamie is astounded at the significant shift that seems to have come over the Supernatural writers room now that Sera Gamble is taking charge. Meanwhile, Beth spends the episode primarily confused (about...

This week the girls gloss over basically everything as Gamble's revolutionary new era begins in the exact same way as Kripke's (burning a matriarchal figure on the ceiling for man pain). This episode introduces the new dynamic of: Sam (hairy), Samuel (bald), and Dean (micro-aggressed). Meanwhile, Jamie is covering everything from accusing God of both lying & identity theft to positing the conc...
