Join SPN fandom newcomers, Berly and LA, as they explore the TV series, Supernatural, episode by episode. Over drinks, they'll discuss lore, gore, and what they adore about the Winchesters and their adventures.

As a way to keep in touch during the 2020 pandemic, Berly and LA started podcasting with their debut, anything-goes talk show, The Tipsy Exchange. During those discussions, Berly and LA realized that they most enjoy talking humorously about TV, horror, suspense, and hot guys. Supernatural seemed a natural fit. It's a match made in heaven... or hell... you decide!

Now, let's get tipsy! CW/TW for violent and lewd commentary; listeners beware! 🔞

Welcome to the very first episode of Denim-Wrapped Nightmares! Hosts Berly (a new SPN fan) and LA (along for the ride) kick off their Supernatural journey with the 2005 pilot episode, and they're already swooning over the Winchester brothers.

The episode starts in 1983 Lawrence, Kansas where four-year-old Dean is absolutely not qualified to carry baby Sam like a football down the stairs while their house burns and mom Mary gets pinned to the ceiling. Flash forward 22 years and the boys are all grown up (and gorgeous, according to the hosts) with Dean breaking into Sam's Stanford dorm to drag him on a hunting trip to find their missing dad.

Episode Highlights:

• First blood splooge of the series! (Yes, they're counting)
• Dean giving 9-year-old Sam a .45 for closet monsters (very Texas of them)
• The boys posing as US Marshals while looking like teenagers
• "Scolder and Moldy"
• The Woman in White (Constance) being very forward in that front seat
• Poor Jessica meeting the same ceiling-pinned fate as Mary Winchester

The hosts dive deep into the lore, exploring La Llorona and the Vanishing Hitchhiker legends, including Dallas's own Lady of White Rock Lake. They praise the pilot for its solid setup and note that Jeffrey Dean Morgan falling asleep on the couch is absolutely forgivable because, well, it's Jeffrey Dean Morgan.

"Driver picks the music, shotgun shuts his cakehole!"

Hosts Berly and LA tackle Season 1, Episode 2 of Supernatural, and they cannot stop saying "Wendingo" instead of "Wendigo" (there's only ONE 'n', people!).

The episode opens in Black Ridge, Colorado where three camping bros learn the hard way that see-through tents offer zero protection. One guy gets attacked (RIP, early 2000s horror tropes), Corey Monteith gets snatched from the tent, and the third guy films it all on his Blackberry held backwards because front-facing cameras weren't a thing yet. Remember those days?

Meanwhile, Sam's having nightmares about Jessica doing a Carrie-style grave grab, and the brothers are on their way to the coordinates Dad left in his journal. They meet Haley Collins (serving looks in tiny shorts that are NOT woods-appropriate), her baby brother Ben (aka young Han Solo himself!), and their sassy guide Roy who is about to learn why you should STAY IN THE PROTECTIVE CIRCLE.

Episode Highlights:

• Sam and Dean posing as "Ranger Ford" and "Ranger Hamill" while talking to future Han Solo (Star Wars Easter egg overload!)
• Dean's "I don't do shorts" fashion stance
• Peanut M&Ms saving the day via Hansel and Gretel trail
• Roy being "secretly sassy" before becoming Wendigo snacks
• The hosts' deep dive into Wendigo psychosis and unwanted Dahmer talk
• Zero blood splooge count this episode (just evidence of previous splooge)
• Dean getting a kiss while Sam gets a shoulder pat (ouch)

The Wendigo goes down in flames, the Collins siblings survive, and everyone agrees to tell the authorities it was a bear. Dean declares he hates camping (relatable), and Sam gets to drive for once.

"Saving people, hunting things, the family business."
