Welcome to The eX-Files, an episodic rewatch podcast in which Jenny Owen Youngs & Kristin Russo dig into every episode of The X-Files, spoiler free, one at a time. Jenny grew up watching The X-Files when it aired, but Kristin has only ever seen the pilot episode. (Her review: "hot.") The podcast’s title — The eX-Files spelled with an “e” — is a credit to our relationship: in addition to being longtime business partners, we are also ex-wives. *cue spooky music*

2.06 Ascension | An X-Files Podcast
THE X-FILES ARE RE-OPENED, SMUG BITCHES! Daddy Skinner said let's goooooooo!! Also: Scully is somewhere in the sky, Mulder's hair has one fleeting non-duckling moment while drenched in rain, and Duane Barry answers the question on all of our minds — "Who took Scully?" — very clearly: THEMMMMMMM!
Producer LaToya Ferguson gives "Ascension" 1/5 Turning One Man’s Religion Into A Crusades

2.05 Duane Barry | An X-Files Podcast
The FBI needs someone who can act like aliens are all a bunch of hooey to help get some hostages freed, so they call in the best candidate for the job: Famous Non-Believer Fox Mulder! Also, Scully writes a check for $11.14, the perfect dog from "Ice" is back and no one tells us if he is okay, and C.C.H. Pounder as Agent Kazdin is the best Smug Bitch that we've ever met.

Re-Broadcast: Buffering the Vampire Slayer's 3.19 "Enemies"
To mark the 25th Anniversary of Buffy's Season 3, Episode 19: "Enemies," we are rebroadcasting our Buffering episode from back in 2018 — with special, beloved guest (and velvet choker owner), Hrishikesh Hirway. In re-listening to this episode we also learned that our conversation on "Enemies" also marks the very first time that Jenny told us the now-infamous tale of The Woman Who Had Two Pennies.
Please enjoy, and take this opportunity to kiss your best gal pal on the forehead.

2.03 Blood | An X-Files Podcast
Beware of your electronics and take special caution if you find any of their screens shortening the word "them" to "'em"!!!

2.02 The Host | An X-Files Podcast
It's a worm, it's a worm, it's a GREAT BIG WORM. Please check your toilets and put out your cigarettes, kids, because a giant flukeworm is on the loose. Flukey was last seen in New Jersey where it reportedly grabbed a slice and then headed south.
It's Season 2 Episode 2 "The Host" and we apologize, deeply, in advance.

Customer Reviews
Another hit from the buffering ladies
Jenny and Kristen have created another perfect podcast with deep dives into the Xfiles that investigate how this cult show interacts with the time it was made and the modern day. Big laughs and deep conversations keep me coming back for more
Awesome sound quality
Really fun insights and great rapport
The sound quality is excellent unless it’s a live show which is ruined by the noisy audience, so hopefully they don’t do them anymore
The hosts seem lovely
Love it so much
My favourite podcast is now rewatching one of my all time favourite shows and it is as amazing as I thought it would be. Loving listening to Jenny and Kristin’s takes on all things Mulder and Scully, they are amazing!
