55: 4x11 "Daughter of Pomira"

This week on XENA: WARRIOR PODCAST, it's the child custody battle of the century in 4x11 "Daughter of Pomira." Vera, Katie, and Livy discuss this episode's major cinematic influence, The Searchers, and the ways in which this episode fails to live up to the moral nuance and ambivalence of that seminal American Western. We talk about the subtextual reemergence of Gabrielle's Hope issues, Vanessa's blue dress of domesticity, and Milo, who is just the worst. So many coins in the Problematic Jar!!!

The power, the passion, the podcast!
