When Pagan Gods Check In and the Apocalypse Checks Out on SupernaturalWelcome to this episode of Gank That Drank: A Supernatural Drinking Game. Hosts Krissy Lenz and Nate McWhortor are tackling Season 5, Episode 19 of Supernatural, "Hammer of the Gods"—building a drinking game to play along with the episode as they recap how every rule plays out. In this one, Sam and Dean get stranded at a suspiciously well-appointed hotel during a storm, only to find themselves trapped among a gathering of pagan deities with a very specific agenda for their two famous guests.Krissy and Nate dig into what makes this episode feel like a standalone monster-of-the-week adventure even as the season's mythology looms large. They marvel at the production design of the Elysian Fields Hotel and the stacked supporting cast, and they get into the mechanics of rules like drinking every time that Elysian Fields sign appears on screen (eleven times, as it turns out) or every time Mercury's aggressively aggressive keyboard typing demands your attention. There's also smooching, blood splats, name tag close-ups, and an elephant—because of course there is.Grab your drink and cue up the episode. These notes stay premise-level, but the audio discussion contains spoilers—watch first if you want to go in fresh.LINKSTruStory FMMembership (early, ad-free access + bonus content): JoinSocials: Facebook | Instagram | BlueskyLearn more about the hosts: Neighborhood Comedy TheatreIf you were going to build a drinking game rule for this episode, what would be the one moment you'd make everyone drink to?
