The Witches of Letters: A Supernatural Rewatch Podcast

In this episode Joy and Laura break down season 5 episode 6 “I Believe The Children Are Our Future”. Sam and Dean investigate a series of deaths and strange happenings that resemble urban legends or lies that kids believe. After some investigation they find a young boy called Jesse who possesses the power to make his thoughts reality, and who Cas says is the Antichrist.We discuss how the demon lore on the show has seemingly changed; how Jesse is actually very sweet, even though he’s the supposed Antichrist; and also how we never see him again after this episode, even though he seems very relevant to the apocalypse plot.We also discuss how a lot of the lies we tell children have breaking and entering involved for some reason, and Joy traumatises Laura with a story about sea monkeys.Joy’s Easter eggs are about what happened to the Castiel action figures on the set, how the Antichrist lore holds up, and some examples of surreal history.Stay safe out there, have each other’s backs, and always keep fighting!Sources used:https://epguides.com/Supernatural/  (for dates of episodes)https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1506849/?ref_=ttep_ep_6 https://supernaturalwiki.com/5.06_I_Believe_the_Children_Are_Our_Future_(transcript) Joy’s show notes Email us: thewitchesofletters@gmail.comSubscribe and follow us on socials:Find us on Instagram Find us on ThreadsSupport the show by leaving a review and a 5 star rating wherever you listen, and sharing the episode with a friend.Theme music is Hard Rock (Fireman) by AlexGrohl from Pixabay Supernatural podcast, Supernatural TV show rewatch, Supernatural episode recap, Supernatural rewatch podcast, Supernatural fan podcast, Supernatural analysis podcast, Sam and Dean Winchester, Castiel, hunters and monsters, Supernatural demons, Supernatural angels, lore, favourite Supernatural moments, SPNFamily, behind the scenes Supernatural, monster of the week podcast, paranormal, urban legends, horror, fantasy, Supernatural season 4 recap, women podcasters.
