This week on XENA: WARRIOR PODCAST, it’s love at first sight! Vera, Katie, and Livy are stepping into an alternate timeline with 6x18 “When Fates Collide,” one of Xena’s most romantic episodes. We discuss how writer Katherine Fugate found her way to Xena, why alternate realities are such a popular storytelling trope in fandom, the bold revisiting of “The Ides of March” that actually manages to match the original’s intensity, why this villain team-up works so well, predestination vs. free will, and all the amazing Roman LEWKS! Plus: Neil?, fajinking, running foundation, Tipping the Velvet, Altications, soft back touching, and washing your hands in the clip! The power, the passion, the podcast!
