A Sam Girl Retrospective
Welcome to a fem-lead, Sam-centric rewatch Podcast of Supernatural! Journey back through the iconic series, Supernatural, with Sam Winchester fans 10 years after they first watched the show. Each pod ep will cover up to two episodes of the series as we work our way back through each season.
Listen on:
Hey, hello! My Tumblr used to be a Supernatural specific account way, way back and I ran with some really fun Sam Fans back in the day. The live blogging, the meta writing, the fandom wars 😅...!!! That was a time.
Since it's been about 10 years since I started my Supernatural watch for the first time, I decided to start a Sam centric retrospective rewatch Podcast with my old friends that I met on Tumblr Dot Com!
It will begin on June 20th with S1 of the show (anywhere you get podcasts). Watch this space because I will update about the Pod here as well as on Instagram and other socials.

It's week 2 of A Sam Girl Retrospective and this week your host, Audree, is joined by guest host, Vic! They discuss the next two epsiodes of season 1 and all the wonderful elements that make the early seasons so special. Be sure to find visuals for this episode on our Instagram, including graphics showing the break down of how we rate these episodes.
Acknowledgement: Episode 2 of Supernatural does deal with a creature from indigenous lore and we want to be sensitive to that. I've included a link discussing how to be respectful if writing your own story, should you decide to include one. We also want to acknowledge that the show may not have been as sensitive in how it included this creature, so I've added a chapter break in case anyone would like to skip past our discussion straight to "Dead In the Water."
E2 discussion begins at 9:10E3 discussion begins at 43:16
Thank you to Tumblr user eruthiawenluin for talking through concerns about this with us! We definitely want the podcast to be accessible to everyone.
