The Cas Cast: A Supernatural Podcast

This week: 6x12 Like A Virgin, original air date February 2, 2011. Written by Adam Glass, directed by Phil Sgriccia. An episode of Supernatural, if we're being honest. This one was an installment of the show, and they’ve got a sword in some rock, too. Yeah this one is called Like Cas Virgin... Ella wasn't awake to stop Ilse and Jess from choosing a title with less nouns and more logical clarity. L...

This week: BONUS BANTER, original air date today? I guess? Written by nobody, directed by nobody. Sometimes you just talk to your friends too long for it to be outtakes. Sorry about that. We made it a little bonus episode instead! Also as an apology for being gone for a bit due to unforeseen circumstances. So you get two episodes today, and if you don’t feel like hearing us talk about things that...

This week: 6x10 Caged Heat, original air date December 3, 2010. Teleplay by Brett Matthews, story by Brett Matthews and Jenny Klein, directed by Robert Singer.

This week: 6x07 Family Matters, original air date November 5, 2010. Written by Andrew Dabb and Daniel Loflin, directed by Guy Bee. First off, major apologies about my (Ilse’s) audio in this one. We’re working with some constraints that mean we have to work with audio recorded on my phone sometimes, which means more noise filters through. Sincerest sorry to your ears <3 This episode was a little...

This week: 6x06 You Can’t Handle the Truth, original air date October 29 2010. Teleplay by Eric Charmelo and Nicole Snyder, story by David Ree, Eric Charmelo, and Nicole Snyder, directed by Jan Eliasberg. Well, they hate us. Less than two minutes of Cas in here.

This week: 6x03 The Third Man, original air date October 8 2010. Written by Ben Edlund, directed by Robert Singer. We’re back for season 6 babyyy! It’s a big one for our boy, he's gaslighting, he's gatekeeping, AND he's girlbossing! All in a days work. Mentioned in this episode: chocolatecakecas summing up how important that one scene is to the lore better than we did Fanmade "Castiel Returns" sea...

This week: Ghostfacers Webisode(s)! We decided to cover the episode in which Cas appears to the Ghostfacers, because we said if Cas was in there, we’d do it. This is less of an episode and more friends rambling while a dog tries desperately to derail them, peppered with mentions of the television show Supernatural and its main character, Cas. Mentioned in this episode: the Ghostfacers webisodes t...

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 im...

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 recorde...

We also get really invested in Paul's l...

This week: 5x16 Dark Side of the Moon, original air date April 1, 2010. Written by Andrew Dabb and Daniel Loflin, directed by Jeff Woolnough. So everyone’s dead in this one, but don’t worry, because it’s not big-deal dead, it’s fucking-with-the-world-building dead.

This week: 5x04 The End (!!!), original air date October 1, 2009. Written by Ben Edlund, directed by Steve Boyum.

This Sunday (!) it’s September 18th!! So we thought we'd do a little something to celebrate Cas, a guy who is unfathomable, old as balls, has a deep melancholy, and must be very dense. Love you, bud.

This week, we see some truly impressive emotional misdirection from one protagonist and some really open communication from another.

While Ilse is away Ella and Jess will play. This week for a little fun we talked about the Angel episode Smile Time, written and directed by one of our favourite Cas understanders, Ben Edlund! An absolutely delightful episode of television. It's left us with one major question though, WHY the HELL did they never do a puppet episode of Supernatural?!?!
