A League of Their Own (1992 - mostly)
August 20, 2022 05:12 - 1 hour - 165 MBSara loves A League of Their Own (1992)! So does Chloe! Chloe loves A League of Their Own (2022)! Sara tolerates it. In this episode, we watch the 1992 movie, touch on the new show, and effusively declare our love for Rosie O' Donnell. There are also a lot of very confusing accents, courtesy of S?

A Tale of Two Muses
May 20, 2022 19:26 - 48 minutes - 68.6 MBWe'd both forgotten how incredibly fun this episode is! We like it more than Footloose, the movie it essentially spoofs. Join us as we laugh our way through A Tale of Two Muses, featuring ILLICIT GYRATING, questionable Southern accents, politics, and confusing costumes!

A Good Day
April 26, 2022 02:32 - 46 minutes - 72.6 MBWe drank very effective energy drinks and giddily discussed yet another episode featuring one of Xena's favourite nemeses, Caesar! That guy's antics always seem to lead to some very pivotal moments for both our heroines.

But I'm A Cheerleader (with Andrea Warner, Dina Del Bucchia and Hannah McGregor)
February 20, 2022 17:58 - 1 hour - 83.1 MBWe enthusiastically welcomed back three of our previous guests (Andrea Warner, Dina Del Bucchia and Hannah McGregor) to very chaotically discuss queer camp classic But I'm a Cheerleader! We talked aesthetics, our experiences with the movie, what we'd want out of a reboot/remake, and.....hippos pooping? You'll also want to listen for Hannah's thorough rundown of things the movie classifies as gay, straight and neutral. Guest bios: Andrea Warner writes and talks. A lot. She’s the author of...
Yellowjackets, Round 2 (The Special Guest Edition)!
February 09, 2022 22:46 - 1 hour - 94.5 MBRemember when we told you we're obsessed with Yellowjackets? Well, Sara recently joined pals kt and bailey to continue yelling about our favourite cannibals! Chloe had the plague and sat this one out. The trio chat about the fans' hunger (hah!) for seeing the girls chow down on one another, music hopes for season 2, the potential for more queerness (it's a girls' soccer team, ffs!) and puzzle over the main characters' motivations. bailey (they/them) is a Cree, Metis, Ukrainian Indigiqueer...
Yellowjackets
January 07, 2022 05:24 - 55 minutes - 73.2 MBWe're obsessed with Yellowjackets. Like, really obsessed. Join us as we get into the nitty gritty of the show's(very nuanced) characters, discuss our theories, and pose the important questions, such as: once a cannibal, always a cannibal?
A Family Affair
December 16, 2021 04:26 - 44 minutes - 61.9 MBIt's gay chaos....gayos?! We're back and giggly as we discuss the truly nonsensical but lovely Family Affair. Who doesn't like a Xena and Gabrielle reunion? And for once, Gabrielle gets her own double!
Host
October 31, 2021 19:58 - 56 minutes - 79.2 MBHappy Halloween! We're huge horror fans and for our first horror movie episode ever, we're discussing one of the scariest movies out there (at least, we think so!) -- Host! We discuss the appeal of horror movies, the genre's link to grief, and how filming over Zoom really amps up the scares. Oh, and we scream a lot. Remember: DON'T HOLD A SEANCE OVER ZOOM.
Ocean's 8
October 12, 2021 01:47 - 1 hour - 139 MBEveryone's hot and it's fun! That's the crux of Ocean's 8, but obviously we have more to say about it than just that. We discuss diversity, the movie's sartorial delights, food allergies, and ask: is this queerbait? We also rant about anti-vaxxers and thirst over Lou, because, y'know.
In Sickness and in Hell (with guest Dina Del Bucchia)
August 11, 2021 15:21 - 56 minutes - 59.6 MBThis week we welcome special guest Dina Del Bucchia to discuss one wild mishmash of an episode, In Sickness and in Hell! We talk about creepy crawlies, being disappointed by our heroes (and conversely, our positive experiences with Bruce Campbell), our affection for the episode, and fandom. We also rag on TERFs!

Adventures in the Sin Trade: Pt. 2
June 14, 2021 20:53 - 44 minutes - 65.3 MBFlogging and butts and visions, oh my! In this episode, we follow along with Xena as she continues on her path to redemption and wonder: once a murderer, always a murderer? Also: why do we always have panic attacks when we're trying to buy a specific cheese? Podcat also makes a particularly loud extended appearance.

Adventures in the Sin Trade: Part 1
May 03, 2021 22:19 - 57 minutes - 81.1 MBThis week, we discuss Adventures in the Sin Trade: Part 1, a devastating episode that concludes with the most epic, crushing line in all of history: "It's a toughie."

Sacrifice: Pt 2
March 12, 2021 05:10 - 49 minutes - 74.7 MBWe really cracked ourselves up talking over this very dramatic episode of television! We wonder: Why DOES Hope look exactly like Gabrielle? Is Xena acting out of character? Sara also proves to be the Master of Segues and we both give you all a glimpse into just how nerdy we are.

Sacrifice: Pt. 1
February 15, 2021 01:56 - 48 minutes - 70.2 MBIf the cocoon's a-rockin', don't come a-knockin'! We finally return to Xena, and discuss an episode that's got A LOT going on - Sacrifice Pt 1. We talk about Gabrielle's fortitude, the rules behind blood sacrifices, and meeting Katee Sackhoff. Chloe also seriously dates herself.

Happiest Season
December 21, 2020 21:45 - 1 hour - 142 MBIt's that time of year, and we're discussing one of the most divisive queer movies of recent years, Happiest Season! Are you team Harper or team Riley? Sara is team Riley and Chloe has mixed/too many feelings! We discuss whether coming out stories still have value, the movie's sartorial delights, toxic behaviour vs. toxic personhood, and more!

December 16, 2020 17:44 - 21 minutes - 13.6 MB"Lesbians can have orgies too". We chat about gay music, being music nerds and S needs to offer a formal apology to their parents for the constant Pride Parade of music they subjected their parents to.

November 27, 2020 03:25 - 46 minutes - 67.7 MBThis episode is snatched! Also, wolves and vampires? Guess what, they're gay!

WBB Talks Music: Kate Bush - The Dreaming
November 19, 2020 22:51 - 30 minutes - 19.5 MBWe tried to do a second podcast! But we're bad at schedules so we're incorporating it into WBB. Welcome to WBB Talks Music! These are short episodes where we chat about music and why it's good/bad/problematic/overlooked. First up, Kate Bush - The Dreaming. Great song, TERRIBLE LYRICS. EVEN WORSE VIDEO. The epitome of Well Intentioned White Woman Goes Way Off Track.
Vanishing Act (with guest Jaime Brown)
October 24, 2020 02:21 - 1 hour - 88.6 MBChloe and Sara welcome back dear friend and Bruce Campbell enthusiast Jaime Brown, who once again brings her unique perspective to WBB Podcast. We chat about acting techniques, Bruce Campbell, letting your actors have fun, and ableism, and wonder....just how DID that scuba suit of Autolycus' work?

San Junipero (Black Mirror)
September 04, 2020 23:12 - 1 hour - 104 MBWe've emerged from our pandemic depression haze to talk about a triumphant and emotional hour of TV, San Junipero (Black Mirror S03: E04)! While we generally like Black Mirror, we find it a bit overly pessimistic and monolithic in its attitude toward technology overall, so naturally this optimistic and very queer episode is our favourite. Because death and mortality are central themes, our conversations veer toward the heavy a little more than usual, but we still had a lot of fun talking a...

Bound (1996)
July 16, 2020 02:36 - 1 hour - 164 MBWe've emerged from our COVID funk to talk about Bound, a movie that's both successful as a lesbian movie and as an entertaining mafia movie! We talk A LOT about misogyny and the female gaze, and oh boy do we hope that Caesar has access to a reasonably priced (and discreet) drycleaning service.

Forget Me Not
May 18, 2020 19:20 - 57 minutes - 86.3 MBWe're back! We're still in (soft) quarantine! This week, we discuss Forget Me Not, an episode in which Gabrielle undergoes yet ANOTHER purification ritual. The poor girl's got a lot of pain. We talk the desirability (?) of memory erasure, jealousy, and we share our culinary quarantine tips!

When In Rome
April 20, 2020 05:44 - 54 minutes - 79 MBChloe and Sara discuss When In Rome, an episode of Xena in which no one who is supposed to be guarding someone else can actually do their job properly! And, of course, there's Caesar. We discuss Gabrielle's evolution and get philosophical with a discussion of morality and ethics, Chloe tries and fails to pronounce "Vercingetorix," and we make a lot of bad jokes, even for us! Find us on Twitter: http://twitter.com/WBB_Podcast Send us a message on Tumblr: http://warriorsbardsnbrews.tumblr.com...
Murder, She Wrote: It's a Dog's Life
March 30, 2020 03:58 - 51 minutes - 76.6 MBWe're all feeling stressed because of the coronavirus and what does Chloe do when she's stressed? She watches murder mysteries! True crime is all the rage now but we decided to...not get into that at all and discuss S01E06 of Murder, She Wrote instead ("It's a Dog's Life). Family drama, bad hair, a cameo from an 80s icon and a dog on trial. We can’t make this shit up.

Forgiven
March 16, 2020 03:46 - 50 minutes - 75.5 MBThis week on Warriors, Bards 'N Brews we get philosophical and do a deep dive into morality and personal growth.

Warriors, Bards 'N Brews at Fan Expo Vancouver
February 17, 2020 18:40 - 54 minutes - 78.2 MBWe were honoured to be invited to the first ever Podcast Alley at Fan Expo Vancouver! If you haven't listened to Warriors, Bards 'N Brews before this could be a good place to start! We stray from our usual live episode commentary to provide broader commentary on the show and its lasting impact. Chloe is particularly feisty in her belief that the XWP remains one of the most truly feminist shows out there! We apologize for the audio quality not being up to its usual standard, we were recordi...
Captain Marvel
January 13, 2020 06:21 - 1 hour - 164 MBCaptain Marvel was one of our favourite movies of 2019 and we finally get to talk about it after a long battle with the common cold and respiratory infections! We talk nostalgia, chosen family, Brie Larson's acting (we think it's good!), and agency, and we debate whether there's an element of queerbaiting. We had a great time recording it, and we hope you have fun listening. Find us on Twitter: http://twitter.com/WBB_Podcast Send us a message on Tumblr: http://warriorsbardsnbrews.tumblr.c...
The Bitter Suite
December 23, 2019 20:15 - 50 minutes - 73 MBClimb every mountain, kill every girlfriend! (not really). Join Chloe, Sara and special (returning) guest Jaime Brown, as they have way too much fun discussing Xena's first musical episode and the resolution of "The Rift," The Bitter Suite. Jaime lives in Surrey, BC with her husband, her cat, and her widespread chronic pain. She is a trained actor, karaoke enthusiast, and self-labelled bisexual disaster. Sara hates this episode, Chloe kinda loves it, and Jaime falls somewhere in between...
WBB Podcast at the VanPodFest
December 09, 2019 02:56 - 53 minutes - 75.6 MBWe were incredibly honoured to be able to do a live taping of Warriors, Bards 'N Brews at this year's Vancouver Podcast Festival. We strayed from our usual format a little, and discussed Xena's influence on us personally and on LGBTQ media over the past 25 years. We get emotional over Xena, Supergirl and Gentleman Jack, crack jokes, and answer audience questions. And Chloe reveals her type! PS: the intro isn't very audible as the staff member introducing us wasn't mic'd, but the audio sor...
Maternal Instincts
November 25, 2019 03:00 - 59 minutes - 81.6 MBThis week, we tackle Maternal Instincts. In other words, everything hurts and we're dying! We discuss the parallels between XWP and some of our favourite modern superhero shows (Legends of Tomorrow and Supergirl), fandoms and angst-love, the power of denial, and Callisto's nihilism. We tried our best to be at least occasionally funny discussing this very unfunny episode, and we think we succeeded!

WBB Podcast: Ghost Stories
October 31, 2019 02:24 - 42 minutes - 58.3 MBIt's almost Halloween, so why not cozy up and listen to Chloe and Sara (mostly Sara - Nova Scotia is VERY haunted!) tell ghost stories? We pull from personal anecdotes, our friends' stories, and more well-known - at least regionally - spooky tales. Boo!

The Craft
October 29, 2019 01:40 - 1 hour - 159 MBYou wanted it, you got it! We get spooky for Halloween and discuss 90's classic The Craft. Prepare for lots of screeching about witches and feminism! We talk about how The Craft really wants to be feminist but ends up being kinda anti-feminist -- we love the movie, but slut shaming, misogyny and casual cruelty abound. We also touch on some of its other big themes, including racism and theology. Happy Halloween! Find us on Twitter: http://twitter.com/WBB_Podcast Send us a message on Tumblr:...
The King of Assassins
October 02, 2019 02:36 - 49 minutes - 68.1 MBWe're talking The King of Assassins this week and there's....another lookalike? And this time it's Joxer's murderous brother, Jett.

The Debt: Part 2
September 09, 2019 05:04 - 49 minutes - 68.5 MBWe're back, after an impromptu summer hiatus! In this episode, we spend a lot of time discussing ethics: would Lao Ma have approved of Xena kiling Ming Tien? Was Xena going to listen to Gabrielle and leave Ming Tien alone before he bragged about killing Lao Mao? Was Lao Ma right to keep her husband in a coma? We want to hear what you think.

Better than Chocolate
August 13, 2019 05:01 - 1 hour - 139 MBDuring Vancouver's Pride Week we recorded an episode dedicated to one of our favourite movies (really!), Better than Chocolate. This movie is a wild ride through Canadian LGBTQ history, cute friendships, lesbian tropes and awkward discussions/depictions of sex. Dildos abound and there is SO MUCH MOANING. There's also a pretty decent trans storyline! Find us on Twitter: http://twitter.com/WBB_Podcast Send us a message on Tumblr: http://warriorsbardsnbrews.tumblr.com If email is your thing, s...
The Debt: Pt 1
July 02, 2019 04:32 - 51 minutes - 70.8 MBWe're back discussing the first part of the two-parter that birthed this podcast! We love this episode but also have things to say about XWP's love of the mystical asian trope, levitation as lesbian sex, and the logistics of boat travel on this wonderful, ridiculous show.

June 17, 2019 05:31 - 1 hour - 90 MBWe revisit an old favourite and discuss why we still love it, creepy dudes and why they suck, how this could've been way worse in terms of predatory/creep factors and can you tell that Chloe didn't do any of the usual uploading duties?

Gabrielle's Hope
April 22, 2019 05:36 - 49 minutes - 33.7 MBGabrielle's Hope is a bit of a heavy one, but that didn't stop us from having fun with it! We discuss demon babies, our utter and complete lack of a maternal instinct, and Gabrielle's naiveté. Thanks to Podcat for his editing skills. ;) If you want to check out the podcast we mentioned ("Ghosted!"), it's available here: https://starburns.audio/podcasts/ghosted-by-roz-drezfalez/ Find us on Twitter: http://twitter.com/WBB_Podcast Send us a message on Tumblr: http://warriorsbardsnbrews.tumbl...

The Deliverer
March 22, 2019 01:46 - 1 hour - 46.4 MBEverything's changed. The Deliverer marks the start of The Rift, and a huge turning point in Gabrielle's character development and her relationship with Xena (which will always prevail!). Chloe and Sara talk about cults, Gabrielle's arc and her neverending need to always believe in yet another someone...or something, Xena's faith in Gabrielle, and queer suffering in media. Oh - did you know that chariots radiate big dick energy? Find us on Twitter: http://twitter.com/WBB_Podcast Send us a...
Been There, Done That
March 02, 2019 20:32 - 59 minutes - 41.1 MBLet's talk about time loops! Since Russian Doll has taken everyone by storm and brought time loops to the forefront again, it feels very timely (hah!) that we're talking about Been There, Done That -- a pretty great piece of time loop media in its own right. We talk about the parallels between the episode and Russian Doll, trauma and anxiety metaphors, and time loops as a vehicle for dark comedy. And, of course, expect bad puns!

The Furies
February 12, 2019 04:31 - 52 minutes - 36.1 MBChloe and Sara's first episode back after extended illnesses is a wild one, and marks the start of season 3! We talk women and vengeance, Xena's parentage, gods and incest, and hairstyles as an indicator of a character's moral leanings. Chloe also confuses decapitation and castration. Buckle up!

Carol (2015)
December 20, 2018 20:36 - 1 hour - 78.9 MBIn the spirit of the season, we're talking about our favourite holiday movie, Carol (2015). We saw it three times in the theatre! We're a little into it. We get film nerd-y and discuss our endless appreciation for the driving/road trip scenes, the lesbian nod, the movie's (very few) faults, The Price of Salt, Therese's deep resentment of Richard, and queer history. Also, dear listeners, please tell us: what's the opposite of a cougar? Because that's what Chloe is. Find us on Twitter: htt...
The Price
December 03, 2018 02:22 - 47 minutes - 32.9 MBWe're back! After a short hiatus brought on by a move, Chloe and Sara are at it again. This time we're discussing The Price, one of Xena's more problematic episodes. We talk racism, She-Ra, moving, Xena's darkness and Gabrielle's strength, and our shared affinity for fictional scientist ladies in unfortunate 90's khakis.

Vampire Month: Dracula Retold
October 18, 2018 19:34 - 55 minutes - 38.4 MBIn our third installment of WBB Podcast's Vampire Month, we read from and discuss the cheeky short story "Dracula Retold" by author zana, and welcome our special guest/excellent friend and hairstylist, Bailey. There are queer vampires aplenty! We talk about vampires and consent, the author's clear disdain for heterosexual marriage, vampirism as a metaphor, and lesbian tropes and creative spellings of the word "woman."

Vampire Month: Carmilla - Bonus Episode
October 01, 2018 20:31 - 2 hours - 104 MBWelcome to Vampire Month! We begin with a discussion of the Carmilla webseries, with a focus on Season 1. We discuss what made us (particularly Sara) fall in love with the series, the less good aspects, Hollstein's similarities to Xena and Gabrielle, and toxic behaviours. We're going on a trip across the country this week so updates may be a bit sporadic but our next episode will hopefully be uploaded next week!
