J2 Gold Panel(x) (v)
Jensen: I love Pittsburgh, I spent a few months here filming a movie, I had a good time.

Jared: It's hard to leave the family,
Jensen: (bring them with you) Do you know what that takes?!
Jared: I get ONE chance this summer to sleep in a hotel without the kids pulling on the beard, Daddy, Daddy.
Jensen: I thought I'd do that but ended up going down the youtube rabbit-hole, hours later I was still awake, because of this stupid phone. We're all susceptible.
Jared: Anyone UFC fan, I walked to the nearest bar, and about 12:30 walking home, I saw this handsome African American man staring at me and I’m like hey it’s pride week! And it’s Christian, Rob, everyone.
Jared: It was a shame to see him go.
Jensen: The first time I got to work with him was the finale, all season we were like ships in the night, I really enjoyed not only his company, but his talent.
Question: If demon Dean and soulless Sam had a battle of sarcasm, who would win.
Demon Dean for sure, Sam didn't understand sarcasm.
Question: (guy) Mark slept with your wife this season, what if Jo would be pregnant with Lucifer's kid? How would it be seeing your wife pregnant and you didn't cause it?
Jensen: As long as it’s not my kid! Hey I want another kid, not with me you don't!
Jared: Gen and I had this conversation. I want another, Have fun!
Jensen: To clarify, Mark didn't sleep with my wife, Lucifer slept with Jo. Did they? Was it the angel grace thing? Although I was in Austin the whole time and I don't have cameras in my apartment, so they may have! We have a nephilim, demon-human, what's an archangel-angel, just an angel baby.
Question: What are your personal cars?
Jared: My day-to-day is a Hybrid SUV which is amazing for kids.
Jensen: and sounds amazing when you rev it at the lights (sarcasm)
Jared: I’m restoring my first car.
Jensen: You’ve been repairing that since I’ve known you and I’ve never seen it, one of these days this mythical car will show up!
Jensen: My wife owns the cars at home, I walk everywhere in Vancouver, so I took my wife's old 2010 Range rover, our wedding gift to each other. But she has the cars at home and lets me drive it. The only thing with 4 wheels that I own is the off-road mule at the brewery. Waiting for the show to end so I can drive the impala home.
Question: Dean's character developed a lot more humor in later seasons, he used to be badass.
Jensen: I had to make up for the age. The writers started to explore the humorous side of Dean, fine by me because I enjoy doing it, but they bring the badass back, it's nice to have both, I hope you enjoy it.
Question: Lucifer fight scene.
Jensen: Doing it, Mark and I spent 9 hours in harnesses. It's very painful, especially when they hoist you up. They let us down to breathe for a minute, not only the uncomfortableness of the weight, but the harness was cinched so tight it was probably like a women's corset. We just loosened it for half an hour for lunch. Doing the fighting not having your feet, a punch starts from your legs, so it was very awkward. So I wasn't sure how it would work, and when I saw it, I wasn't overly pleased, it just looked awkward. They cut a lot of it, (like Twilight) I agree, I wasn't pleased, I don't think we'll be doing that again.
Question: What traits do you share with your character?
Jared: I’m a researcher like Sam. Jensen laughs at me because I read directions. He throws them away.
Jensen: My daughter just had her birthday and we gave her a little electric jeep, and they don't come assembled for some reason. Here's the battery and here's 72 parts, and of course I didn't read the instructions, and it took me three hours in the garage. At one point I was like hmmm, I guess I'll dig into my bag of screws and find something to hold it together. When you start using things that don't come with the toy… but hey that part stayed on. One of many traits I have in common with my character, no need for instruction manuals, I'll just force this square peg into a round hole.
Jared: And when you have extra pieces left over. Tom had a lego thing, in his room, he showed me, it was really cool, a little market and police car, and he was like, and those are just extra pieces. It was nothing foundational.
Question: What is your self care for mental health?
Jensen: When I'm home I'm plugged in 100%, it's not about me at all, and it's a taxing task, I don't know how my wife does it. Honestly, what keeps me even keel is that I have a lot of time by myself, in Vancouver I wake up and say what do I want to do today? At home I don't have that luxury, that's what clears my head, literally, I know that sounds selfish, but sometimes you have to be selfish for your mental health.
Jared: I’m in a better head space when I read, that sounds so random. The news can cause anxiety so even if you are hearing what you want to hear.
Question: (Daphne) Reaction to Scoobynatural?
Jared: The first time we saw it was at the Manns Chinese theater. Sometimes he and I have a private moment on set, or us and Misha, to say this is so cool, but rarely outside set like that. We're here and the Oscars were here last week, it was really surreal and cool.
I don't know how you got tickets.
Jensen: They paid people to be there.
Jared: Is that what that debit was.
Jared: They left 8 seats for us to watch, me and Gen and Jensen and Danneel.
Jensen: Misha leaned over, like "this is amazing!" has this happy little kid expression and he’s like, this is so cool! Apparently they want to do more, not promising anything, it was received so well, I know a conversation has been had. Everybody that needed to be pleased was pleased, so we'll see.
Question: I know both of you like music, did it bother you when the animated series was weird with the mouth movements not matching?
Jared: They usually do it in a different language, that was animated in in Japanese and it doesn't translate perfectly. I did all of them, you didn't?
Jensen: I did one episode.
Jensen: Or they have one word where we need four words. It's not going to match up. This is why I didn't do it, with most animation the vocals are recorded first, when you're trying to sync your voice to the animation, even if it was done in English, it would be difficult to sync with what they have already chosen.
Jared: Honestly, it's difficult to do ADR, even when it's me syncing with myself. It gives me more respect for people who dub in foreign languages.
Jensen: On that note, we should animate our way right out of here.
Main panel (x) (v)
J2 jump onstage!
Jared: “As is obvious to everyone, we haven’t worked since the finale. So we’re a little beardy.”
They are going around flipping back and forth between each side to decide where to start taking questions & being silly.
J2 are doing a bit of like a Laurel & Hardy bit.
Question: “I’ve been watching you guys since I was little.” “How little?” “Since you guys started and I’m 18 now.” Jared: So…four? Jensen: pretends to faint over that. Jared catches him, helped Jensen up after collapsing like an old man lol.
Jared: “If I could be anyone else on SPN, I’d be Castiel so I could have the day off!” Jensen: Even when he’s working. BA-DUM! Jared: That was my joke! You can’t explain my joke! Jensen: It was a follow-up joke. Jared We kill so many, I have a lot of good answers but they're all dead.
Jensen would be Baby because she just sits around and gets pampered all day long.
Jared: I've been an angel before, Gadriel, but I would still play Cas because it’d be fun to help the Winchesters out with no agenda.
Fan: I think I would be Jensen actually. Jared: But then you’ll get to look at me!
Question: What hair products do you use? Jared: I use shampoo, conditioner, beanie. I haven't paid for a haircut in 13 years.
Jared doesn’t know what hair product the on set hairdresser uses on him. Jensen: YOU LOOK AT IT EVERY SINGLE DAY. To be fair it's sitting in front of me every day and I have no idea either.
Jared: I had a quarter life crisis over my forehead, fivehead, am I going bald? So I started using Nyoxin, I literally just use shampoo and conditioner and throw a beanie on even in 105 degrees in Texas. People look at me, I could walk around with a gun it would be less scary.
Jensen: This is not a word of a lie, I think she uses mousse.
Jared: Coming to a store next summer: Moose Mousse.
Question: How many miles do you think the Impala racked up?? Jensen: even before we had it, when Dad drove? Hundreds of thousands.
Jared: at least a half million miles on her.
Jensen: The one I drive, has 99999, Jared: 666, Jensen: that's car number three. Just what the brothers have driven is hundreds of thousands.
Question: Why did Soulless!Sam smirk when Dean got turned by the vamp, he's supposed to be emotionless?
Jared: That’s just the way I look. Even when I sleep I’m like this… *does a grin*. I always have a shit-eating grin. Maybe because he wanted to see where the story went from there, oh cool a new opponent, it'll be fun, the excitement of the quest. That, and my face. Jensen: I just assumed you were watching cat videos.
Question: What would you like to see in S14, for your characters and Cas and Jack.
Jared: Is he coming back? The boys joke about Cas/Misha. Jared: “[Cas] is not dead, just recast.” Jensen: “Cat’s outta the bag.” Jared: “CAS out of the bag.”
Jensen: For Dean, I'd like to see him come back.
Jared: BUT! I would love to see Dean come back, but I want to see Michael!Dean for several episodes. Even if we do too many we can always do S15.
Jensen: Christian had a beard when he was playing Michael, so (y/n?)? Fans shout. Get rid of it? I mean why not, we'll see?
Jared: I would like Sam to take the opportunity while Dean is Michael to teach Jack what Dean taught Sam. And Cas to bring food, do laundry, teleport us somewhere.
Jared: (shout "get Jack laid") Are we casting?
Jensen: Alright ladies take it easy. He's one years old!
Jared: In Season 32, when Jack is 18, we’ll get him a girlfriend, boyfriend, whatever he wants!
Question: When SPN ends will you still do cons?
Jared: It's hard to think about the day when SPN ends, the show is gonna have to end. I don’t think the SPNFamily has to end.” I'm flattered at meeting our newer members, friendships 8 years later still traveling around.
Jensen: Yea.
Question: Bonjour, je t'aime. Do you need special French lessons? So the question, do you need time ot prepare learn, lines, what is your process before shooting?
J2 laughing at each other and their attempts at French
Jensen: You go first, yours is longer than mine.
Jared: Why yes it is, and my process. That reminds me of DJQualls getting into his process on set and we were messing with him. So, back on track, I spend many days letting it, preparing for that moment, they can't stop laughing at the double entendre of everything.
Jensen: we should not be allowed to raise children. Jared: I’m not allowed that’s why Gen ships me away
Jared: I read it for many days, before we start filming I want to have watched it in my head, it's all about repetition, so I know the foundation to change it afterwards.
Jensen: So many metaphors, that's why I let him go first.
Jared does WOW with his fingers and mouth and Jensen does it sarcastically back to him.
Jensen: I am the opposite, I wait until the night before, no matter what time we wrap I sit on my couch, get my script, two fingers of bourbon, and I read the script once, then show up next day and do it.
Question: What scenes do you prefer.
Jared: “I like emotional stuff.” Jensen: “You would.”
Jensen: I like the lighter stuff, comedy, and finding comedy a lot of times where there isn't comedy.
Jared: I don't like exposition,do you know what that is,
Jensen: (the Anchorman reference) I believe it is an old, old wooden ship.
Question: Who do you like being directed by, Jensen, Misha, Rich?
Jared: He's right next to me.
Jensen: Pretend I'm not here.
Jared: It was easy being directed by Jensen, I’ve known Jensen the longest and the best. Jensen knows how I work and vice versa. He knows what to say to me because we have such a rapport with each other.
Jensen: We direct each other on a daily basis anyway. Like it was funnier the first time, do it like that again. We’re constantly watching each other’s back. So it wasn't much different for me. And there's not a lot of directing from any director with him and I, maybe just go over and pick up that prop, so they let us do our thing.
Jared: The guest directors understand that Jared and Jensen care about Sam and Dean more than they ever could, so we will have done everything we need to, they trust us.
When Misha directed, Jared was more focused on messing with him. Jensen adds that Misha’s strategy wasn’t so much directing so much as survival, wondering if his house was on fire.
Jared: When Speight directed he kept calling them by their character names. Sam? Call me Jared. We’ve stopped trains together in Europe! I've been to Brazil with your family.
Question: “I’m so nervous.” Jared: “All good, girl. You’re surrounded by family.”
Any idiosyncrasies before filming a scene?
Jensen: There is a sequence, lock it up, the bell rings, the marker, the clapper take 1. And Tahmoh would walk in circles grunting just before scenes.
Jared: And he’s a big guy.
Jensen: So cut to Jared & I watching *stares forward terrified* like “are we gonna get hit??"
Jensen: I don't know what that is, I've never built up the courage! David does something too, I forget, he gets the Ketch look, Ketch-face, and that he keeps the Ketch accent between takes which helps.
Jensen on Jared: "If we’re in the middle of a scene & it’s his turn to say a line but he’s just checked out, there's been this odd pregnant pause, you see him realize he missed his line & he does a loud throat clear & then says his line as if the long dead air was so he could clear his throat." Every time.
Jensen: sometimes he's meaning to pause, but I know if he clears his throat, he forgot it was his turn.
Jared: You chew gum and stick it to the roof of your mouth, oh you put it there.
Jensen: Just so you know For 13 seasons, Sam and Dean have ALWAYS had gum in their mouths, in every scene. Just to prove my English teacher wrong. Jensen, I can tell you're chewing gum. Oh really, watch these 13 seasons, Mrs Patterson, Karen, if that is your name.
Question: What would they tell their characters?
Jared: Move to Maui. Go to Spain. There’s nothing for you here. Eat some cheese. Cut your hair.
Jensen: Maybe not to Dean about the cheese… Jared: You’ve had enough, Dean.
Jared: Not that Sam and Dean are military, but I wouldn't make them re-live past trauma, but thanks, buddy.
Jensen: get a little WD40 on the Impala doors. “They’ve been squeaking for 13 seasons”
Jared: I would tell Sam and Dean, “Hey, stop chewing gum!” Sam, stop dying!
Question: Appreciate mental health awareness and support of MeToo. What have you done for the MeToo movement?
Jared: Minorities, women and LGBTQ are not treated well still but as a society, we're talking about it, we've had a drink with this person in Hollywood not knowing, some of the mea culpas that read most true, I realise I need to shut up and listen.
Jared: AKF has been special to me, you need a genuine connection to change, just try to listen to people and don't want to hurt them. I would like to be emotionally available so he can listen and help. Let them know you see them as people and treat them as you want to be treated.
Jensen: I would say, something I've always aspired to live by, lead by example, you can call people out, but at the end of the day, showing and being the person you want to be and make people proud of. Says it’s something my parents taught me, his father said don't tell people what to do, show them, if it's your boss and you don't want to get fired, show by example. If someone is being inappropriate show them by example how to be better.
Question: Who makes the most bloopers?
Jensen points at Jared
Jensen: Jared might be “the blooper” or else he’s probably responsible for it.
Jensen: Jared failing to enter the scene on time was how Jensen lip-syncing to “Eye of the Tiger” happened. Jensen: “I get a lot of credit for that – it was his fault.”
Since Rob left the con, Jason takes Rob’s place to sing the last question with Jensen. Jensen says they rehearsed that for three weeks!
Last Question: What do you do with your kids in the rare time you have with them?
Jared: Watching Supernatural during kids’ nap time should be called “Supernapural”. Stephen: *rim shot* Jared is so proud he finally got a rim shot! Jensen: That's his one a year.
Jared: We have a chicken coop and vegetable garden, we look for for bugs and found a frog, his name was Jumpy. We found a tarantula, it wasn't poisonous.
Jared: I feel like an awful dad. My kids love chasing bugs. It’s noon, Texas in the summer, 100 degrees. "Daddy, you chase bugs, too!” I say: “…I’ll watch from the kitchen window.” A lot of lizard chasing doodybugs, a lot of touching of bugs goes on in my house.
Jensen: For me, it depends which kid I'm dealing with whether I can remember their name (too soon?). So JJ was at camp and my wife had taken Arrow to the store, it was just me and Zep, so I put on a Led Zeppelin vinyl and sat in my leather chair in my living room, and just stared out the back window and listened to Led Zeppelin.
Jason and Jensen do the last question song again.
