Fox in the Hell House

S2E13-- Episode 13: One Breath, pt. 2

Welcome to the second half of our episode on One Breath! This time we go deeper into the conspiracy of the syndicate, the grim reality of what the Cancer Man's life is like, what Skinner's whole deal is about, and the rich vein of Catholicism in Scully's resurrection. It's a good talk, come hang with us! Cohosts: Bill Eldridge (he/him) John Watson (they/them) Mae Barnes (she/her)

S2E12--Episode 12: One Breath, pt. 1

Scully is found alive in a hospital, and nobody-- not even hospital staff-- knows why. Mulder crashes out, and there is a lot of meditation on the metaphysical nature of life and death. This is the first half of our exploration of this episode--more next week!

S2E11--Episode 11: 3

Who ordered all these vampires, because dude, these vampires SUCK. No, really. Mulder, missing his one true bestie Scully, is really sad and decides to go hunt vampires in LA for a bit. Nothing of substance occurs, least of all the X-Files's exploration of the subject of vampirism. There is so much meat left on that bone, and we are SALTY about it. So come listen to 3 weirdos talk about the wasted potential of the episode and yell with us about VAMPIRES. Cohosts: Mae Barnes (she/her) Bill Eldridge (he/him) John Watson (they/them)

S2E10--Episode 10: Fresh Bones, feat. Madene Presley

We got us a heap of trouble with this one: Mulder and Scully are called into a Haitian refugee camp to investigate some mysterious shenanigans... which means that we need to talk about Haitian Voudon. To do that, we needed some help from someone who knows what he's talking about. We have special guest Medene Presley on to investigate the history and culturally prescient aspects of this bizarre episode, and we hope you enjoy the conversation! Cohosts: Bill Eldridge (he/him) Madene Presley (he/him) John Watson (they/them) Mae Barnes (she/her)

S2E9-- Episode 9: Ascension

This is the second half of the Duane Barrie saga in a nutshell: Scully gets abducted by Duane, and then Duane lets the aliens abduct Scully for like, another episode. Meanwhile we investigate the meaning of art criticism, interrogate the thesis of this show, and also make jokes about what a demon twink Krycek is. We dub Skinner "The People's Daddy," too. Cohosts: John Watson (they/them) Bill Eldridge (he/him) Mae Barnes (she/her)
