A Supernatural Crash Course with Krissy Lenz
Manage episode 427835958 series 3577938
This week, Mandy settles into the passenger seat of the old Impala with comedian and podcaster Krissy Lenz for a road trip down the highway of "Supernatural," the long-running TV series about two brothers hunting monsters across America and facing their daddy issues.
Krissy, a self-proclaimed nerd and host of the Supernatural drinking game podcast, “Gank That Drank,” introduces Mandy to the show's premise and its significance in the genre TV landscape. The two discuss the series' impressive 15-season run and its blend of horror, humor, comedy, and family drama.
Their conversation touches on the show's early episodes, which Krissy notes are steeped in urban legends and local lore. From the "Woman in White" of the pilot to Wendigos and Bloody Mary, "Supernatural" initially drew heavily from campfire tales and regional myths.
The pair also explore the show's evolution, with Krissy hinting at the introduction of angels in later seasons and even a meta episode where the main characters enter the world of Scooby-Doo.
It turns out, the show is perfect fodder for a drinking game, with rules like drinking whenever Dean calls Sam "Sammy" or someone crashes through furniture. This game, it seems, is not for the faint of liver.
