Beyond Buffering: The X-Files, Fallout, Yellowjackets, & more!

Is it telekinesis or a poltergeist? Is his name Howard T. Graves or does that acronym actually stand for Howard The Ghost?? Why does Lauren Kyte have two green apples on her mantle?! This week's X-Files is absolutely chock full of shadowy mysteries! While Scully tries to convince Mulder that their car headlights are NOT haunted (they are totally haunted), the rest of us watch as a real angry ghosty blasts through town to protect his secretary/surrogate daughter Lauren Kyte. It's Season 1, Episode 6: Shadows.

Plus plus plus!! In-episode this week we also have the extreme pleasure of speaking with Lisa Waltz, who plays Lauren Kyte!

LaToya Ferguson gives this X-File a scary rating of 1/5 ABNORMAL POST-MORTEM MUSCLE REFLEXES***

***Kristin cautions that her rating would be at LEAST a 2 if you are scared of poltergeists!!!

This week we're going to the state of pizza, attitudes, malls, and Jennys: NEW JERSEY! Mulder is on a (wild) goose chase for the legendary Jersey Devil after learning of some recent woodsy cannibalism, Scully is going on a date with "Rob" after her best friend told her to get a life, and we've got college professors, park rangers, and VERY loud children also in the mix. Most importantly: Scully told her best friend that Mulder was CUTE. (kisssssssss!) It's Season 1, Episode 5: The Jersey Devil.

Meanwhile, Mulder is puzzling together 0s and 1s in search of his sist— oops I mean Kevin's sister Ruby, Scully is watching Mulder move through the loss of his sist— oops I mean Kevin's sister Ruby, and we all get to hang out at a biker bar and the library. It's Season 1 Episode 4: "Conduit," where we don't have friends, we just have people we like to hang with.

Welcome to The eX-Files, a Beyond Buffering podcast where hosts Jenny Owen Youngs and Kristin Russo cover The X-Files one episode at a time, spoiler free.

It seems the government is building military planes with UFO technology and our most trusted sources are a very stoned Seth Green and amateur-photographer Ladonna who runs the local diner: The Flying Saucer. Should we heed the mysterious warnings of Deep Throat and stay away from the case? OF COURSE NOT!! NO X-FILE STONE WILL BE LEFT UNTURNED!! It’s Season 1, Episode 2: “Deep Throat” and we are headed to Idaho to wear our Timberlands and have our memories erased.

Come with us on our newest podcast rewatch adventure, where Jenny Owen Youngs is showing her ex-wife Kristin Russo each and every episode of The X-Files one at a time.

Producer LaToya Ferguson gives this X-File a scary rating of 1/5 Budahases

It's the inaugural episode of The eX-Files, and FBI Agent Dana Scully has been assigned to write field reports on (and become best friends with) Agent Fox "Spooky" Mulder. Our first X-File has us going to Bellefleur, Oregon where the Class of '89 simply cannot stay away from the woods, where Scully takes a bath in the dark and gets some mosquito bites, and where Mulder has a f*cking blast losing 9 minutes of that most beloved of universal invariants: TIME!!! Could it be the stinky alien babies?!?!?! 

Come with us on our newest podcast rewatch adventure, where Jenny Owen Youngs is showing her ex-wife Kristin Russo each and every episode of The X-Files one at a time.

Producer LaToya Ferguson gives this X-File a scary rating of 2.5/5 Grey Metallic Implants
