The Purge

Gank That Drank: A Supernatural Drinking Game Podcast

Join hosts Krissy Lenz and Nate McWhortor as they dive into Supernatural Season 9, Episode 13 "The Purge" - where fat-sucking monsters, competitive eating, and the beloved introduction of Sheriff Donna Hanscom combine for a delightfully gross adventure. Grab your favorite beverage and play along with their drinking game rules while the Winchester brothers investigate mysterious weight loss deaths at a health spa.

In this episode, Sam and Dean go undercover at Canyon Valley spa after a series of bizarre deaths where victims' fat is mysteriously sucked from their bodies. Dean finds himself relegated to cafeteria duty (complete with hairnet) while Sam leads questionably long yoga classes. The investigation introduces fans to the unforgettable Sheriff Donna Hanscom, whose first appearance showcases her signature "you betcha" charm and reveals the painful story of her ex-husband Doug.

The case leads to the discovery of Maritza, a Pishtaco (Peruvian fat sucker) running the spa with her murderous brother Alonzo. While Maritza uses her abilities to help willing clients lose weight, Alonzo's uncontrollable hunger leads to multiple deaths. The episode culminates in a tense moral debate between the brothers about whether non-violent monsters deserve to live, adding another layer to their ongoing family drama.

Key Topics Covered:

• First appearance of fan-favorite Sheriff Donna Hanscom
• Competitive eating culture and sabotage
• Pishtacos: Peruvian fat-sucking monsters
• Undercover work at Canyon Valley spa
