36: 3x12 "The Bitter Suite"

This week on XENA: WARRIOR PODCAST, we're not in Kansas anymore. Buckle up, Totos, we're going on a magical mystery tour through the land of Illusia! That's right; Vera, Katie, and Livy have reached the musical masterpiece, 3x12 "The Bitter Suite." Join us as we explore the rich symbolism and dense cinematic referencing of this seminal episode of television. We discuss its hugely influential place in the history of TV musicals (SIT DOWN, Once More with Feeling!), its connection to tarot, Qabalah, and the occult; and its very eccentric use of CGI. Plus, a hot take on where reality ends and dream begins, the pros and cons of Broadway Gabs, Ares' best lewk, and what REALLY caused the rift between Xena and Gabs. So click your heels thrice and repeat after us: "There's no place like Xena's bosom! There's no place like Xena's bosom! There's no place like Xena's bosom!" The power, the passion, the podcast!
