S1E13 - Beyond the Sea; or GIVE SCULLY AN EMMY!

Grab your file-drawer Cheetos, beware of extremely moist psychics, and join us as we break down The X-Files Season 1 Episode 13: Beyond the Sea! This week on our rewatch of The X-Files, Dash & Melz (longtime fans and couple) and Angel (first-time watcher and Dash’s mom) meet Scully’s dad, played by Don S. Davis, better known as Major Garland Briggs from Twin Peaks. He is alive for all of 90 seconds. What follows is a grief-soaked reversal where Mulder is the skeptic, Scully wrestles with belief, and Gillian Anderson and Brad Dourif enter an act-off where they're both winning. We talk about Scully burying herself in work, Mulder not being untouchable, and Luther Lee Boggs, a man that will kiss ya or kill ya, depending on the day. Along the way, we get more evidence that Mulder is a proto-gooner, tell funeral impostors to stay away from Scully and get a job, decide that being exe-CUTE-ed means getting licked to death by adorable kittens, and imagine Scully asking an ice cream server for a flavor that can commute a death sentence. We also discuss Julie Strain sword fellatio, Cher going to Harry Potter for cosmetic surgery, and the great nipple drought of 2008. If you’re reading this, you’re a friend!

S1E12 - Fire; or, Horny Mulder vs. Doctor Flame

Grab your lightly toasted Mulder-scented candle, watch out for strange British men, and join us as we break down The X-Files Season 1 Episode 12: Fire! This week on our rewatch of The X-Files, Dash & Melz (longtime fans and couple) and Angel (first-time watcher and Dash's mom) meet Phoebe Green, Mulder's old flame, and unfortunately for Scully, it's a whole thing. This episode gives us tuxedo Mulder, shirtless Mulder, jealous Scully, Victorian linebacker lips, and the canonical revelation that Mulder and Phoebe apparently boned on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's grave. We're also dealing with Cebob, a firebug who stalks the Marsden family, smokes three cigarettes at once for the children, and generally behaves like a man who should not be allowed near anything remotely flammable. Meanwhile, Doctor Flame shows up as the FBI's horniest arson expert, a deeply strange man that we are pretty sure wants to have sexual relations with fire. Along the way, we ask who undressed Mulder, wonder why these parents keep forgetting about their children, invent Mind Movers, discover Angel's understanding of Rule 34, debate how many times you can free Willy before realizing Willy is the problem, and somehow end up discussing public domain Mickey Mouse porn.
