10: 1x19-20 "Altared States" & "Ties That Bind"

Daddy issues abound on this week's XENA: WARRIOR PODCAST! First Vera, Katie, and Livy talk about 1x19 "Altared States," notable less for its ripped-from-the-Old-Testament plotline and more for its insinuating teaser, which, uh, is so NOT about fishing. (Also hello, Karl Urban!) Then it's on to 1x20, "Ties That Bind," where Ares pretends to be Xena's dad and Freud has a field day. We discuss the gorgeous on-location cinematography, Gabrielle's evolution from comic relief to co-lead, and the symbolic meaning of Ares' stupid little earring.

The power, the passion, the podcast!
