Before we get to the return of our favourite stretchy serial killer and how we feel for poor Dr Monty, we catch up on the festival of silly names and Ed starred in an observational documentary.

We discuss how to accidentally make an environmental message, why rain sucks, and Ed shares his love of hanging around with horses.

This week we dig into Native American lore, why Mulder was uncharacteristically slow off the mark, and why it only takes one Gatorade to scupper credit card fraud.

Michaela was buzzed to hear what Ed had to say about Mulder and Scully’s investigation into a faith healer. And why Jesus is Japan’s Thor.

Michaela breaks the weather, Scully stalks a lorry, and Deep Throat educates Mulder about sharks. Oh yeah and big love for the world's favourite conspiracy theorist squad. Plus extra movie club chat (spoiler alert for The Favourite and Poor Things).

Existential crises, the salamander hand and the unfolding curse that is being one of Mulder’s past colleagues.

If this one sounds like Michaela didn’t realise she was recording this via her laptop’s mic, that’s because that is the case.

Freaky Friday Frankenstein cop drama, with a terrible tattoo.

Our experiences of finding magazines in bushes might differ from Brother Martin's... 

The perfect episode of the X Files? And the perfect day of cleaning loos.

We learn all sorts of things in this episode, like not to play with fire, smokers are jokers, Mulder has a totally rational fear of fire, and Ed's mum was a raver.
