Episodes
Ulysses
September 17, 2018 17:41 - 56 minutes - 38.8 MBThis very loose retelling of The Odyssey/Ulysses is both fun and infuriating, seeing as we strongly doubt Xena's ability to be any man's "little wife". We wonder: can the siren scene be read as slightly queer? Should it be more queer? We also touch on the series as a feminist nod to women's importance throughout history, Tori Amos, and um, puffins. We also remembered that there is a literary work called The Odyssey but kinda forgot about James Joyces' Ulysses, so....forgive us. Find us o...
Blind Faith
September 03, 2018 19:56 - 46 minutes - 32 MBLong live Butch Queen Gabrielle! We're particularly crass and punny as we discuss one of Chloe's very favourite episodes, a tender gay romp in which Gabrielle almost gets (forcibly) married for the 3rd (?) time and Xena has her very own fanboy service human.

For Him the Bell Tolls
August 21, 2018 03:15 - 52 minutes - 36.1 MBToxic masculinity ruins everything. As does jealousy. We discuss how Joxer is a victim of toxic masculinity yet still very irritating and love on our dear shit-disturbing Aphrodite a whole lot. Prepare for groaning every time Joxer's theme song plays, ESPECIALLY if he's singing it.

A Comedy of Eros
July 09, 2018 17:38 - 44 minutes - 30.8 MBOne of our more spontaneous recordings! We talk about jealousy, Chloe’s “fighty” side, and devirginizing as a gross patriarchal power move. There’s also plenty of innuendo and the most Tori Amos references we’ve ever made in a single episode!

A Necessary Evil
June 25, 2018 17:30 - 50 minutes - 35 MBThis week, Chloe and Sara get into A Necessary Evil, aka A Battle of Egos.

June 10, 2018 21:03 - 54 minutes - 37.2 MBEveryone loves The Quest!

Destiny
May 28, 2018 17:10 - 50 minutes - 34.8 MBIn Destiny, we're introduced to Xena's first girlfriend (M'Lila) and Caesar - who, I don't know - may have had a teensy impact on Xena's life. This is one of our favourite Xena episodes and we were excited to get to talk about it!

The God You Know

A Solstice Carol
