Supernatural's JARED PADALECKI talks Show Ending and Finale with JENSEN ACKLES 

Looking forward to listening to Jared’s return to the podcast. A good way to start my Tuesday morning. ❤️

I love it when actors act like normal people. Pretty much all of the SPN cast has that vibe, it's pretty awesome

"Pain is mandatory, suffering is optional"...absolute Truth.

I will always be grateful for Jared’s openness and honesty when it comes to mental health. I hope he knows how many people he’s helped by speaking so publicly about what he goes through. Thank you for having him on the podcast again, this was a fantastic conversation. And I am so sorry to hear about your sister, sending love.

Jared is so underrated and underestimated... He's such a brave, good and gentle guy, and of course an amazing actor. I love you so much Jared, please keep opening up to us (if and when you want ofc), we're always gonna be here for you... Be strong and please please please never change♥️ akf

He got so emotional talking about Sadie ❤

James Marsters, Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki all within a few months...amazing

I love Jared so much. He's the reason I started even watching Supernatural. I came across a quote of him talking about his depression on Pinterest and it encouraged me to seek help for myself. Jared changed my life and doesn't even know it.

Jared opening up about his arrest and stopping his drinking was an eye-opener. I'm glad that he learned from it and acknowledged that it was humiliating, but it's something that could have happened to any of us. He's wise enough to learn from his mistakes.

There are few celebrities I have more respect for than Jared Padalecki. His openness with regards to mental illness is important, and he's one of the few people with such a platform that actually uses it to put that important issue to the forefront. The fact that he had a slip-up is, to me, more a positive than a negative, at least in terms of the people that look up to him. "He's this millionaire actor, but hey, he had an issue like I had an issue." His work to get rid of the stigma that plagues mental illness is inspiring, and commands commendation. Great episode.

Jared is so honest and down to earth, he seems like such a kind and understanding person. We ❤️ you Jared!!

I remember reading a magazine interview with Jared online; about his mental health issues rearing it's ugly head during filming of the 3rd season of Supernatural, and he had said something along the lines of "I had dogs, friends and family members who I knew loved me, but I was depressed anyway". That quote helped me realize that it was okay to admit to being depressed, and that I needed help for my own depression and anxiety. I was the kind of person who would viciously beat myself up at the first sign of depression, telling myself that I was being a conceited asshole for feeling sad "for no reason", telling myself that I had no right to be upset when other people out there had it worse, that I was being overly dramatic, etc. I had found Supernatural in 2014 or 2015 ( I forget exactly) only a little while after my own health issues took a dive in 2013. So having someone out there KNOW what it felt like, and to be open an honest about mental health, really helped me come to terms with my own.

Probably one of those podcast episodes that made me cry. My sincere condolences to you and your family, Michael.

Jared is a good guy. Down to earth. Human as hell. Bravo for 15 years of supernatural

He's literally my favorite person.

I love that Mike gets his guests to open up and show how human they are without making everything weird. Jared opening up about his arrest and stopping his drinking was an eye-opener. I'm glad that he learned from it and acknowledged that it was humiliating, but it's something that could have happened to any of us. He's wise enough to learn from his mistakes. And when he was talking about mental health and his dog Sadie, I was teary-eyed for sure. His insights into mental health are always interestiing. And Michael, I'm sending all kinds of healing energy to you and your sister!

I'm so proud of being a Jared fan. I feel like he has one of the biggest heart in the world. He puts his soul into everything he does and he's so honest. I truly look up to him. He was the main reason I started Supernatural and he's the main reason I've been watching it for more than 10 years now. I can't wait for Walker and everything he does after Supernatural.

Thank you to Michael and Jared for such a sincere and bright conversation. Jared for me is not a "varnished" celebrity, but first of all a person. A person who does everything in his power for his family, friends and work. I wish you creative success in your future work, loyal friends and a long life for your beloved dogs.

Listening to him, and Jensen, being so candid about stuff, is always so interesting. I could listen to them talk forever

i could listen to Jared talk all day ! thanks for having him Mike !

when it comes to being there for your dog's last moments: I have worked at both an animal shelter and a vet clinic, and I have seen up close what happens when owners aren't there for that, I have seen dog's that came in pretty much already gone fighting the sedatives and stuff and completely panic because they kept looking for their owner that wasn't there, and that is the worst thing ever! and besides, that dog has been by your side and your best friend for years and has supported you through everything, so I'd say it's only fair to return the favor for those last moments... so yeah, it will be hard and there will be tears and all of that, but on behalf of all dogs, spare them the "my person isn't here for the scariest day of my life" panic and be there, just be there, they'd do the same for you

The Walker cast is getting better and better. This new take on the character for sure I am interested in seeing.

Koda is so cute!! When Jared started tearing up and he put his little paw in his hand like stoooopppp 💗☹

Nothing makes me cry easier than seeing my dad cry. He cries and I'm a goner. I can't imagine how hard it was for you to see that. Your family is in my thoughts.

Let me just say it here, I love the podcast, I love the guests but, man, the way Michael opens up, the things he shares, his fears and dramas, all those raw spots! I could seriously listen to him just talking about his life for two hours every week. He is the star and the soul of this podcast👏. He is what brought me here and what keeps me coming every week❤️. And I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one 😉.

I did NOT expect to cry today... That first story about Sadie... omygoodness🤧🤧🤧🤧❤❤❤

He's such a beautiful beautiful man inside and out.

It’s crazy how many seasons of supernatural he did like 🤯

Jared is such an inspiration, such a sweet, kind and at the same time full of funny guy. Love him with all my heart and proud of being his fan.

I absolutely love the fact that Jared talks about his anxiety and mental health so openly, it helps so much everyone that deals with it. Michael also talks a lot about it. It is really important and inspiring, thank you for that!

Jared and his character Sam Winchester has been the reason I came back to Supernatural after a couple of years. Loved hearing him here. ❤️

Been looking forward to this episode all week. Jared’s candor about his struggles with depression is very inspiring. Thanks for having him on. It really means a lot Rosey😀❤️

My condolences on the loss of your sister. It's never easy when that chain is broken. Sending you and your family love and prayers.

Oh my god, Jareds so.. Hes just so straight out amazing. He has this huge warm heart and personality. I really wants to meet him someday and just say thank you and hug him big time ❤️

Literally could listen to jared telling stories all day long. He’s got so much amazing and wise insights into the way of the world.

He is so so so honest talking about his arrest in details and how he started saying that is not an excuse He is so cute and precious !!! ♥

He doesn't mind wearing his soul on his sleeve. Very open always. Love that about him

Jared and Jensen need a podcast

If I get a wish, I am wishing for a candid conversation with Jared Padalecki. His status as an actor and Sam Winchester aside but This Conversation made me cry, smile, laugh and think At the same time. When he talks you could tell the emotions he feels and how he is so invested in different topics.

There are 2 sides to a story for a reason. People were just too quick on dragging him cause they saw him stumble. He wasn't to be blamed fully for what went down to begin with, cause it was so out of character for him + the cameras just happened to be right there, sus from the start. Nevertheless, I'm truly proud of Jared and how he handled himself and turned that to better himself.

I love Jared Padalecki so much!

I'm thankful for Jared's advice and that he's so open with his mental health, because sometimes it's easy to get lost in the hopelessness of Depression and Suicide, and just feeling like nothing will get better, you just get trapped on all the negative thoughts, memories, things you've fucked up and it's just hard, I've been depressed the majority of my life kind of just something I've had to live with and like him and Michael said it's kind of just there in the car with you, and you can't kick it out but you can still tell it to fuck off, but it's not always easy, I've made a few attempts in my 23 years of life, been hospitalized, and my Therapist never really helped, but to be honest probably should've tried someone else, her advice was usually to pray or read the Book of Mormon even though I'd told her more than once I'm Atheist, so more than anything I'd go to the sessions and just be annoyed. Anyway Anxiety is probably what I've made the most progress on, used to be so bad I could hardly say hello to a stranger, I was too scared to order food at a restaurant. But now it's not nearly as severe, I still get Anxiety from having to drive somewhere, or talking on the phone, it's mostly small things now, but I still can't help but overly worry about the most trivial things. Anyway my point is, it's easy to get lost in all the bad, but I think Jared offered great advice, to maybe try and help yourself get away from that. Really need to thank him and everyone else who worked on Supernatural, because it's helped me get through a lot.

My dog Amy is going to be 16 in November I’m going through the same things Jared did, and I can only hope things will go as gracefully for me as they did for Jared. Dog love is forever love.

Thank you millions for treating Jared so cordially as a guest!! It was the nicest thing J2 could do in the quarantine peirod to come in this podcast!!!❤ I wish all the good luck and fortune to this channel😉👍

This is why i love Jared. Hes honest and doesnt sugar coat things. He tells it like it is and im glad he addressed the arrest. Hes learnt from it and moved on.

I'm very excited for this episode!! 💙 I really loved the last time Jared Padalecki was on the podcast. Thank you for having him back. He is such an inspiring human being just like you are Rosey. My mom and I got shirts from his "Always Keep Fighting" campaign. The message is so important. To always keep fighting and never give up ❤️ Thank you for always putting your heart and soul into this amazing podcast we all love. We are so blessed to have it and you. Love you Rosey ❤️

I teared up a lot about the sick/dead pets. I had my first dog on my own die this past Christmas (she was 11) and I had two of my giant rabbits killed by a fox/coyote - I wish they just went missing vs my Dad finding them like that. My new rescue dog basically got me through everything and he's an amazing pup...He was abused by his first owner and the second owner didn't have the space for him. I had mom take him to the vet while I was under quarantine for a checkup and she asked if he was going to be a therapy dog. When I got him he would shake and shrink into himself. I kept training him though and he really enjoyed reward based training/doing zoomies in my large backyard. I totally get the reference of the food as reward and the psychiatry vs psychologist. I went to a psychiatrist when I was 21 and she was fantastic, she just wanted me to talk through things then basically said "There's nothing that wrong with you but you definitely have Generalized Anxiety Disorder." I had panic attacks as a teen and I kept feeling like I was going to die. I was later diagnosed with lyme disease which can cause heightened mental illness issues and am basically cured/in remission now. I honestly thought he was either drugged or possibly had a bipolar episode. My grandpa was bipolar and would be an entirely different person when he drank. I'm happy Jared's okay now.

Jared Padalacki was in my high school drama class way back in 2000 at Madison High School. I got to meet him.

Just watched the intro and all I’m going to say is that I’m sending you lots of love, Michael and my thoughts are with you and your family.

I so agree with Jared about living in the moment. It is so important.

JARED!!!!!!

I'm a few minutes into the interview and I'm already crying like a baby 😭

I came because I saw Jared was on but man, hearing Michael talking at the start, I’m hooked in and will be back for every episode now. Your family are in my thoughts, it’s such a hard process when you have a terminally ill family member, especially when it’s 15 years. Sending so much love your way and thank you for sharing this and making me cry. You are a special and wonderful human Michael Rosenbaum ❤️

Jared one of my fav people on this planet

Much love for Jared! Hes a incredible human being who has positively impact the lives of many people! Thanks Mike for having him back and for creating a safe space for Jared to talk about such delicate subjects!

What a great podcast! This episode with Jared was amazing. Could listen for hours. I love how he's always open about his issues and troubles. And I also saw how uncomfortable he was talking about his arrest but he kept going. Very brave to stop drinking. His love to his dogs is one of the many reasons I love him so much. I'm really rooting for his success and I liked that it will be an all new Texas Ranger. But what really surprised me was that he's the classic car man. The others always pointed him like the one most likely to hit the impala. But well done. They both deserved. All the success J2!

Knitting and listening to jared talk is my new hobby

Nice to see Celebs who are Down to Earth like us. Who we can relate to & enjoy listening too. Thank you all for sharing your time with us

I love Jared so much, such an special human being 🥺 thank you for having him Michael

Deepest condolences concerning your sister, Michael.

this is just gonna be me crying along with Jared. I went through the same thing with my dog in February, having to put her done. She was 14 almost 14 1/2, and she was my baby. One of the hardest things I have to do in my life. Totally understand the pain and sadness Jared.

I have a 2 year old shepherd and I’m bawling my eyes out. My heart is with you both. 💗

He’s a beautiful human being in every sense of the word ❤️

I look forward to watching this. I mean last week Jensen & this week Jared....love it. ❤ thanks lovely.

Jared is an amazing human ,so true of heart ,& the love he has for life is just awesome ,spn will live in our hearts forever 💕💕 he has helped me so much.i love him for his honesty & it's very hard to open up about anxiety / depression ,but thank God he has the will to keep fighting ,he is my heart & soul forever 🌞🌞🌹

I've always thought that Jared was more grounded and more spiritual. Great interview!

Aww... 🥰 Jared has cutest dog! 😊

This was my first watch of this podcast, came on to see Jared. Really enjoyed Michael‘s approach and openness so I will be watch more. In regards to Jared, I’m lucky to have met him on a couple of occasions because my cousin worked for him on Supernatural. Such a great, personable guy and that really comes across in this interview. What really struck me personally was his sharing of his dog Sadie‘s death. My dog is 15 too, and has the same issues Sadie did. Jared describing to Michael how someone knows when it is time to let go was something I needed to know at just this time. On another note, Supernatural was such a big part of Vancouver’s film industry, will truly be missed.

First season Dean in gilmore girls was awesome. ☺️

Just saw Jensen’s episode and it was my first time watching/listening to your podcast. Loved that, and this one too! I’ve been binging now, and I really love how comfortable and natural the whole thing feels with every single guest. I also hope your family finds peace and strength during this difficult time, my deepest condolences for the loss of your sister ❤️

I love how open y’all are about mental health and I love how Jared sees it..like an old friend. No feeling is final. I dig it.

Jared has so many insights.

Hooray, it’s Jared’s interview! Looking forward to hearing about Walker. Thanks for all of the work you guys put into this podcast. ❤️

Thank you for having both Jared and Jensen on your podcast. 💙

Omg JARED!!!! Finally! I've been waiting the whole week. Counting the days. I'm watching it right now! So sorry for your loss Michael.

Loved this interview. Even more than Jensens. When he talked about pain and suffering, I totally understood. Everything changes, good or bad it will change. And Gen is a badass like myself. Natural childbirth was a b****. Love Jared

Thanks for sharing Jared, I have depression and anxiety myself. A bunch of us online decided that our anxiety hasn't bothered us during the lockdowns, for us it's just "oh, it's Tuesday." LOL

My sympathies for the loss of your sister. It sounds like she had 15 good years and was loved, and that's worth everything. Thank you for both Jensen's and Jared's interviews - totally different feel to them but equally interesting!

I had the exact same situation as Jared, minus the fighting, but I was at a friend's flat, was handed a drink from someone I knew and trusted and blacked out at the party and passed out in one of the bedrooms... I didn't remember most of the night, but luckily was with friends who never left me. Turns out I had been handed a drink my friend was given by someone else and it had been spiked. I had only had four ciders that night as well as this drink I was handed, definitely not enough for me to black out. It really can happened anywhere, and it was definitely a reminder for me to be more careful.

Rosey and Jared making me cry as usual. Love both of you guys! And I am so so sorry for your loss, Rosey.

The actual difference is that psychologists have PhD's in Pychology and work in a variety of fields, from behavior analysis to forensics. Psychiatrists are Medical Doctors and undergo the same initial training in medical school as neurologists, cardiologists, surgeons, etc, and then 4-year residency program prior to starting careers. So a Psychiatrist is, by training, closer to a neurologist than a psychologist. Their jobs are to evaluate and diagnose neuro-pyschiatric disorders and prescribed a plan of care. They typically no longer do counseling or therapy. Therapy is typically the job of licensed therapists and, in some states, licensed clinical social workers. The confusion comes from an archaic view of psychiatry still painted in media and film of the "armchair shrink", which hasn't been the norm for decades. Hope this clears things up. Much love to Jared for seeking help from both!

I'm glad that Jared got an Impala too. After all, he is the car guy! Enjoy your cool classic car and all the memories that go with it.😙

Good Morning and Happy Tuesday, Rosey! Very very excited to hear you once again get inside of Jared! 💙

This podcast always makes me cry at some part. Even though I'm not a fan of Supernatural, loved the true honesty of the podcast.

Great interview as always thank you

Thanks for interviewing these guys. Love this show

Great interview. Love it.

I lovvvvvved this episode! I love what Jared said “Pain is mandatory, suffering is optional” That’s what got me through natural birth!

I've been waiting for this podcast!! I've been a fan of Jares for a while now, and my respect and admiration for him has never wavered. Listening to this podcast has only made me admire him more. He learns from his mistakes, and draws inspiration from his surroundings. He's a genuine soul and I adore him ❤💖💖💖

Found this really therapeutic. Thank you.

Amazing pod per usual Michael

I've only have had one dog in my life (my current boi). He's 13 right now and months ago I was really afraid that his time was quickly coming to an end. His name is Rideau (after the Canadian Canal) and he's a gorgeous German shepherd husky mix. He basically has the furryness and shape of a husky but the tan and black coloration of a German shepherd including amber eyes and dramatic black eyeliner. We really, really lucked out with him as he's our family's first dog and he never had any behavioral issues. He doesn't bark, doesn't chew, hump, fight, poop indoors and he automatically knew that we didn't want him on the couches or carpet or hardwood (our main level is tile). He's a great dog. He's got the temperament of a really chill German shepherd...hes almost like a golden retriever or newf. Weirdly enough, he does not howl...i don't think he knows how. The closest he'll get is doing his singing routine when he sees we've finished our supper and he knows it's his turn. Lol There was a time a year ago that I was really, really struggling with because he suddenly was completely unable to walk. It was heartbreaking, he just kept falling and falling. Took him to the vet and he was diagnosed with "old dog syndrome". Apparently it was like a mini stroke and it caused him to have bad vertigo and he couldn't stay up because he was dizzy. But the vet told us that it's temporary and in a few weeks he'll get back to normal. Slowly but surely he got better and I've never been more proud of him! Sadly a few months ago we really worried he was close to the end. He was barely eating and was super slow walking and he began to drag his hind legs just like Jared's dog was doing. He's slowly losing sensation and control in his back legs and it can become progressive. I became determined to find him a wheelchair so he'll never stop moving but I haven't needed to yet! Slowly he's been readjusting himself and learning how to compensate. His front legs have gotten much stronger to pull himself up. If his hind end starts to sink on a walk I simply have to lift his belly and he can continue. He does require me to support his hind end when he's going up stairs though. But it's become so much better and more manageable then before and he's less frustrated. And! He's eating again! We stopped feeding him once a day, dry kibble. Now he eats a breakfast and supper of half kibble half wet dog food mixed with a little water (I call it doggie cereal) and his pain medication. There is hope guys! Your dog can surprise you!

That was such a powerful episode ! Thanks for inviting Jared, Mike !

Great interview! Than you all for the motivation ❤️

Jared is so insightful and intelligent. I will go away from this podcast with a new realization that I can apply to my own life. Thank you!

Your doing a great job with the pod casts Michael, thank you so much for the ride x

Thank you so much ♥️

Holy shit this one resonated with me. First of all, all the love to you and your family, man. My dad had a family before he met my mum, and that brother of mine passed away from cancer last year. He was 39 so an adult, but yeah. I met him at most once a year and we didn't grow up together the way me and my other brother did. I mean sure, I guess we had a relationship so it sucked, but his passing just really destroyed my dad, it was really fucking difficult to watch =/ Second of all, sort of like your guest I stopped drinking after I just realized I become an ASSHOLE with alcohol in my system (there were a few incidents). And damn, I can't even tell you how many times each month people tell me that I should take a glass or two (I'm from one of those European countries where drinking is insanely normalized and almost mandatory) and it annoys the living shit out of me that people can't just accept that I don't like the person I become with alkohol, so I have quit it. Yeah, I don't know, it just felt good hearing someone you admire have a similar story. Anyways, I found the podcast because of the Supernatural boys, but I'm absolutely sticking around and subscribing! Thanks for reading, take care and pls be safe.
