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

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.

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

This episode could've been 5 hours long and my ass would still be glued to the seat. What a good conversation. Still not ready for the show to end.

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

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

He got so emotional talking about Sadie ❤

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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.

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 😉.

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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!

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

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😀❤️

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

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.

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 ❤️

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 ❤️

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's literally my favorite person.

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.

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

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.

Another much NEEDED interview!!! Man, THANK YOU so much for bringing Jensen and Jared along!! Love this!

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 ❤️

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.

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.

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

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!

Wow. This is a really powerful episode. Right on time for me. Thank you!

This was a great conversation and thank you Jared for your openness and honesty. Your commitment towards your work, family, friends, growth inspires many. I hope you know that. Thanks! for sharing.

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.

Sorry for your loss. Prayers from South Florida, ✝️Have totally enjoyed this interview with Jared as well 😊

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!

Sorry to hear about your sister Rosey. Thank You for these podcasts. They’re nice thing to listen to in between everything. ❤️✨

Thank you Michael! Loved hearing both Jared and Jensen’s conversations with you. I hope they’ll each come back over and over. #SPNFamily forever.

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

Great discussion. Jared is so sweet and thoughtful - I really enjoyed this. Thanks.

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 ❤💖💖💖

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😉👍

Im so sorry for your loss. Your family loss. Thank you for sharing this. Huge hugs! Xo

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

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

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.

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.

A really amazing podcast. I'm a huge fan of Jared and Jensen. I like how he was so open about everything you guys talked about here. 😊

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

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

i am in tears. this is amazing. i needed it so much. thank you jared and michael.

Excellent episode with Jared. Sending my love & thoughts to you and your family at this difficult time.

So excited to listen to this later!! Love Jared! I already know this episode is just going to be amazing! ♥️

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 ❤️

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 !!! ♥

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

Awesome interview! It's great to have such honest and down-to-earth guests on the show. Great job, Michael. Keep it up!

Thanks for interviewing these guys. Love this show

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

Best podcast ever. Even if I have never heard of your guest, I listen and thoroughly enjoy it. The conversation is amazing and every episode is different and unique. I love it!!!

What a wonderful podcast, thank you so much Michael. It was like listening to two friends chat, share advice, and comfort. There was real connection and emotion there. The fact that you two love your dogs so very much, tells me a lot about the both of you, and your giant hearts. Your dogs are blessed to have you. I respect Jared's openness about his arrest, and using it as a teachable moment to learn and grow. No excuses. What I will take away from this podcast and remember for life is "no feeling is final" Thank you ❤️

Thank you so much for this Michael. I loved how talked so openly about things.

Absolutely fantastic interview! I LOVE that you normalize discussing mental health. It's such an important topic that doesn't get enough coverage. Thanks for really talking with Jared and digging into some good details!

This is starting to become my favorite podcast!! ❤️

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.

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

I was waiting for it for whole week thanks alot i wished it was 5 hours! You know 15 years u had one of the few or only person who talked to them this fine and entertaining

Loved this!! Admire the hell out of Jared's openness in discussing tough subjects!! He's my fave and didn't disappoint!! And Koda was adorable. Well done!!! and thanks

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

The conversation about living in the moment felt like something was taking the words from my mind, and describing my inner experience of daily life. I have chills, and feel so validated. Thank you both for this❤️

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.

So good to see Jared here. Thanks for the vid!

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

Im a new listener because of Jensen interview but you just keep it real. Love you & this show! Subscribed. Im in!

Jared and Jensen need a podcast

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.

Great interview! Than you all for the motivation ❤️

Sorry to hear about everything recently Michael. Thanks for the podcasts with the Supernatural boys and many others. Thoughts are with you and your family.

I really appreciated this episode. I'm going through some stress/anxiety/mess in my life and you and Jared had some inspiring and uplifting things to say about it. I appreciate you both and your honesty and openness. I love Jared from SPN and that made the episode even better. You are both admirable men. Seriously. Thank you for this episode.

The best part of this podcast is how open you and your guests are. So relatable! ❤️

Came here for Jensen and Jared, subscribed for future content!

Found this really therapeutic. Thank you.

I love this podcast. Thanks for being so open and honest and real and not blowing smoke!

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.
