Ride or Die Podcast

Ride or Die is the result of a series of poor choices that's led to this: an episode-by-episode examination of Supernatural, hosted by Waldorph and Pru. Join us on our death march through the CW cult classic -- and remember, driver picks the music, shotgun shuts their cakehole.
