Saving People, Queering Things (Saving People, Queering Things)

How are we at Season 8 already?! Join the whole crew as we talk through this jam packed first episode of Season 8, We Need to Talk about Kevin through the theme of Family.

We dive into themes of chosen family, discuss Dean and Benny, and do some yelling about how out of character Sam's storyline is. You don't want to miss this great start to the season!

Here are the links to some fan vids August recommends to get the feels going: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=430D0-e9VE0&t=18s&ab_channel=Bexism

(and more coming soon)

Our long time guest Renny is back for this week as we dive into Season 7 Episode 13, through the theme of Duty!

Join us as we question why this episode is all about these powerful Amazonian women and yet it still doesn't pass the Bechtel test?? And how are they only finding out about these Amazonians now if they have been around for centuries? How many of them are there? Why haven't the police investigated them in the past? We have a lot of questions. Listen in to see if we have the answers! ;)

Is family all about who we have faith in? Abigail and Hana discuss 2.01 and how Sam's choices in the Season One finale give Dean the ability to cling to life. They explore how John's authoritarian parenting breaks down when Sam refuses to rise to the revenge bait and how half-hearted attempts at connection are nullified by the lack of behaviour change. Hana shares their experiences with powerful sibling bonds and Abigail has observations about directing choices.

This week, Sam and August discuss the tragicomedy of soulless!Sam (he has no soul and not a clue!) We discover that Dean knows at least one therapy word but that giving Sam therapy-speak without a soul might actually be pretty ethically dubious. If we could ask the writers one question about this episode, it would be: Why not aliens? Plus, August is VERY excited about the X Files. All hail the alien octopi underlords!

• August makes it worse with a theory on why Dean really left Sam at Plucky Pennywhistles as a kid

Queering People, Saving Throws | Head Empty, Just Tree

Join us for the start of a magically queer journey for an unsuspecting group of college students and one park ranger heading off on an early-aughts school trip in Big Bend National Park!

Ranger Montgomery (Sam) is leading a group of environmental science students on a trip through their park when things go a little… weird. Mo is left to guide four students to safety: Avery Thomas (August), a former high school baseball player; Gemma Owens (Elayna) a Scottish woman returning to college as an adult; with Courtney Bryant (KJ, Supernatural Opinions) and her identical twin sister Lizy, a pair of slightly obnoxious former LA residents. Running the narrative, or possibly running after this narrative, is Noah!

As the SAG-AFTRA strike against the AMPTP stretched on, the Saving People, Queering Things hosts have been on a solidarity hiatus, and embarking on a new side-adventure: Queering People, Saving Throws, a D&D-aided original storytelling podcast.

They also talk about the racism and misappropriation of indigenous history inherent in this episode's plot. Additionally, there is yet another example of Dean Winchester's complicated relationship with sexuality (#deanisbi)!

Protection is the name of the hunter's game, but who deserves to be protected? In an episode where Sam and Dean make the voluntary decision to get arrested, Dean takes an anti-death penalty stance, we question if John thought the world needed to be protected from Sam, and we challenge the idea that Deacon is heroic based on the violence he exhibits. Our favourite conversation this week centres around Tiny, who is humanized in a really important way, and how his story is another mirror of the Winchester's relationships.

It's the end of the world as we know it (we don't feel fine). If God is off the board, what does that mean for the apocalypse? Is this all really about a big family feud? A traumatized Noah is worried about Bobby, MEG IS BACK, and it's season 5, y'all!

We go deep into the fallout from season 4 and talk about how Sam, Dean & Bobby address family and broken trust as the conflict at the heart of this episode. The team also explores how Becky is a representation of the writers' feelings towards fans and how we feel about that all these years later. Other highlights - new lore drops explaining angelic vessels, Chuck hits Sam with a plunger (and we love the metaphor of it), and Cas is, thankfully, not dead.

In this takeover recap of 3.05, we've landed in fantasy land where nothing is quite how it usually is on Queering Things.  It's 50% Sam and Jacob being assholes to each other, 25% arguing about how to do the podcast, and 25% actual content.  Sam and Jacob argue about the 30-second recap, discuss fairy tales and the meta of a "fantasy story about fantasy stories" and observe how Dean stares into the camera, Office style. 

Other features include the unconvincing rebuff of a gay joke, more discussions of Sam and Dean's parent/child dynamic, and Jacob's surprise when Sam actually shoots a demon.

What's worse than watching your grandparents die in the past? Watching your dad's villain arc begin when you teach him his first sigil. It's another 70's time travel episode! In this one, Dean maybe ensures the Terminator movies exist, we confirm that John would indeed give in to an archangel, and we mourn the end of the road for Anna (but not before we get in a little pitch for a Mary/Anna gay-romance-that-begins-with-stabbing).

We're officially in the Team Free Will era, and the gang spends some time assigning roles to each other. Finally, we come back to a favourite theme of the Kripke era - free will - and discuss how Dean's determination to make his own choices has been an inspiration to us in our own lives.

Growing up in the hunting life has never been easy, but Sam and Dean sure have a lot of it to do this episode. Join Abigail and Elayna for a our first romp with everyone’s favorite Trickster, who is causing a string of strange deaths that cause the boys to reach out to Bobby for help. We dig into unreliable narration, the boys mixed perceptions of one another, and more in this episode that’s dripping with both mischief and heart.

Bela is "confident but casual", Gordon is still on his anti-Sam mission, and we are once again asking the question of why John didn't share vital information with his kids. Turns out you're always unlucky if you're a Winchester! In this episode, Noah, Elayna & guest Alyssa talk about how the freedom of the rabbit's foot is ultimately a trap every character has to outsmart to survive.  Also featured: The first instance of "idjits" from Bobby, Bela as a foil for Dean, and the contrast of which of Sam and Dean's childhood trinkets John chose to keep.

We love a good duo episode! Join August and Noah as they discuss how a lot happens in the episode but also not really anything? Some topics of discussion include: Bobby is father, Leviathan lore, how unrealistic it is that a hospital isn't looking into the weird deaths that keep happening (plot plot convenience convenience), as well as talking about Lucifer's abuse towards Sam and how manipulative and sneaky he is.
