Welcome back to Gank That Drank, the supernatural drinking game podcast where comedians Krissy Lenz and Nate McWhortor dive into their favorite Supernatural episodes with custom drinking game rules! This week, they’re tackling Season 9’s eighth episode “Rock and a Hard Place”—a forgettable monster-of-the-week episode that somehow becomes memorable thanks to Dean’s hilariously awkward chastity group speech.
The Virgin Episode That’s Actually Worth It
While the hosts admit this isn’t their favorite episode, it delivers some genuinely funny moments. The standout scene? Dean’s cringe-worthy monologue about sex at the church chastity meeting that literally has the group crossing their legs and crunching pamphlets. As Nate puts it, “it’s worth the whole episode just to watch that scene.”
Jody Mills Saves Everything
Sheriff Jody Mills returns and elevates every scene she’s in. Her sucker punch moment becomes one of the episode’s highlights, and her heartfelt conversation with Sam about the Winchester brothers’ special connection provides genuine emotional depth to an otherwise generic plot.
International Title Madness
The hosts discover wildly different international titles for this episode, ranging from Italy’s boring “Between the Devil and the Deep Sea” to Hungary’s brilliant “Unmake Virgins!” Germany’s “Finally a Virgin Again” perfectly captures the episode’s absurd premise.
