This week we are doing our very best just to make it through this episode intact while we regrettably discuss “My Struggle III”! We’re talking the episode titles reflecting our increasing struggle to watch these, CSM name drop without any forewarning, Chris Carter’s “Secret Science” AMA, Mulder becoming a noir detective out of nowhere, and how this whole apocalypse thing was just one big joke. We get really excited about the possibility of Scully transmitting brain morse code, wonder when exa...

S9 E16: "Sweet Willy"

This week we are foisting our alien children off on unsuspecting Wyoming couples while we discuss “William”! We’re talking how whimsical Doggett is in this one, how unbelievable it is that Spender could beat Doggett in a fight, the hysterical split diopter shot somehow being upstaged by the zooming eyeball shot, and Skinner refusing to shell out for Lab Results Plus. We wonder why they decided to do this to poor Chris Owens, theorize that it was physically impossible to turn Spender into a Su...

S9 E15: "Disembark the Shark!"

This week we are wrapping up The Lone Gunmen’s story (and lives) while we discuss “Jump the Shark”! We’re talking the surprising return of Jimmy and Yves, the real reason why Chuck McGill hates Jimmy McGill, that they couldn’t let The Lone Gunmen go without one more shot of Frohike falling face-first in mud, the indignity of Joey Ramone slander, and Yves Adele Harlow's real name drop! We wonder if there will be a Vaping Man in Season 11, freak out about these evil airtight fire doors, t...

S9 E14: "The Scary Monsters at the End of This Show"

This week we are stranding ourselves in a snowy mountain cabin and trying to babysit while we discuss “Scary Monsters”! We’re talking Scully’s zombie horde of a class and how all she wants is just to eat her sandwich, the return of Leyla, the importance of checking your Blood Car Fax report, find out the fate of Mulder’s fish, criticize the verisimilitude of the snow, and enjoy Doggett’s continuing beef with kids. We wonder what the mysterious grandma is up to this whole time, get indignant o...

S9 E13: "Missione: Improbable"

This week we are dodging both serial killers and potentially God while we discuss “Improbable”! We’re talking the strangely Italian everything about this episode, how much we adore Ray McKinnon’s scowl, Burt Reynolds’ charm, the lengths Robert Patrick will go to to avoid being in a silly scene, the probably sarcastic clapping circle for Reyes, and the forty-second shot where we all have to pretend Arlene Pileggi is Gillian Anderson. They thought we wouldn’t notice! We derail for a while and t...

S9 E12: "No Sleep Underneath Brooklyn"

This week we are avoiding our shadow-selves while we discuss “Underneath”! We’re talking the return of Doggett’s articles, how apparently Scully is the only one around here who can solve cases, how absurd it is that a guy named Damon Kaylor is somehow not the killer, whether the Beardo Weirdo is a Shel Silverstein creation, and workshop “cyclepaths” as a concept. Is this anything? We dunk on Doggett’s old partner Dunk, discuss the relationship between necks and stress, theorize that Doggett m...

S9 E11: "The Assassination of Audrey Pauley by the Coward Doctor Priors"

This week we are wandering the halls of a ghostly hospital while we discuss “Audrey Pauley”! We’re talking whether or not Doggett could love a cat, if this episode is anti-organ donation, that they’re really forcing the Doggett-Reyes lovelorn gazing, how much we hate Steven and his stupid little pajamas, and how messed up it is that everybody is ready to start chopping up Reyes at a moment’s notice. We side-eye Reyes’ super-real “parents” “from Mexico City” (yeah, right!), boo the longest dea...

S9 E10: "A Providence of One's Own"

This week we are chasing alien cults across the Canadian border while we discuss “Providence”! We’re talking Doggett sleeping his way through this entire episode, wondering why on earth Skinner sucks so badly now, shake our heads at everyone suddenly converting to Christianity out of nowhere, lament that Reyes has nothing to do these days, and marvel at the fact that somehow, through it all, Brad is the only one in the cast keeping it real. How did this happen? We posit that Baby William is t...

S9 E9: "A Provenance of One's Own"

This week we are smuggling alien writings on our cool motorcycles while we discuss “Provenance”! We’re talking Neal McDonough’s icy blue eyes, how much we miss Machete Scully, that Elvira should be Kersh’s secretary, how boring Toothpick Man is compared to bad ol’ CSM, trucker zoomies, and that Skinner just kind of sucks now. We reaffirm that you shouldn’t smother your kids with a PSA, object to the word ‘rubbings’, struggle to piece together the plot, and laugh at Doggett getting run over in...

S9 E8: "It'll Be A Coal Day in Hell(bound)"

This week we are untangling our reincarnated souls and their crimes while we discuss “Hellbound”! We’re talking our excitement about the inclusion of some coal mines, that Doggett has apparently seen TONS of skinned bodies in New York (tons!), Sweet Willy teaching himself how to make mac ‘n’ cheese and cut stock market deals, and discuss whether or not Doggett and Reyes can actually solve a case without Scully. We wonder why Doggett is touching all this evidence all the time, lovingly tease R...

S9 E7: "John D (Like in Severance)"

This week we are wandering the Mexican desert without our memories while we discuss “John Doe”! We’re talking drug lord charm bracelets, our new fave the Mexican Cigarette Smoking Man, whether Doggett is experiencing a hangover from Skinner’s New Years party, get some Reyes lore dropped on us, and the return of yellow Mexico lighting. How else will we know where we are! We wince a little at Reyes’ accent, wonder what ideas were noodling around Vince’s head, get sad that they destroyed Mulder’...

S9 E6: "Trust No 1? More Like Trust Every 1!"

This week we are checking our 90s emails while we discuss “Trust No 1”! We’re talking the Windows Movie Maker montage that starts this episode, go into hysterics about the melodramatic email, celebrate the return of Terrance Quinn, get excited about more bad Scully driving, and wave at tiny Mulder as he runs on and off the screen. Hopefully he’s on to better things. We wonder where that second baby disappeared to, speculate that the Shadow Man was one of Mulder’s assigned secret agents, laugh...

S9 E5: "Cap'n Cook of the Flies"

This week we are standing still and letting ants crawl all over us while we discuss “Lord of the Flies”! We’re talking yet another Kim Manners bug episode, the very-bizarre and distracting Skyrim music, the star of the episode Dr. Rocky Branzino, and welcome Aaron Paul as a proto-Jesse Pinkman onto the show. We mansplain Syd Barrett to each other, think it would be more fun if Doggett loved The Dumbass Show, wonder how furiously Vince Gilligan was taking notes behind the scenes, and get excit...

S9 E4: "Playing 4-D Parcheesi"

This week we are hopping between parallel universes while we discuss “4-D”! We’re talking the unexpected delight of Skinner and Brad’s team-up, Doggett’s favorite Polish sausage stand (do NOT call them hot dogs), how Monica’s favorite move is wiping mustard off people’s chins, and spend a truly ridiculous amount of time debating how long you can leave chicken sitting out. Honestly, it’s like half the episode. We talk Brad taking notes from Skinner on how to be bitchy, how much Skinner loves p...

S9 E3: "A Little Bit of Daemonicus in My Life"

This week we are decoding secret demonic messages while we discuss “Daemonicus”! We’re talking how disgusting it is to cheat at Scrabble, Professor Scully, how much quippy Doggett really doesn’t work, the continuing saga of Scully emailing and driving, and how apparently Robert Patrick can’t remember his lines because of his fear of demons. Sure, buddy. We lose our minds a little bit at Doggett’s embarrassing theory, get grossed out because of all the vomit, wonder exactly how messy Reyes’ ca...

S9 E2: "Nothing Important Happened In This Episode, Either"

This week we are uncovering what must be the two-dozenth secret conspiracy at the FBI while we discuss “Nothing Important Happened Today II”! We’re talking how you just can’t tell your coworkers to zip it and cooperate, Brad and his squeaky chair, whether or not Scully is on quaaludes, how instantly hateable Brad is, and how the writing staff were really proud of their little tagline. We discover that Doggett can apparently just un-fire himself, wonder whether Skinner is going through nanobot...

S9 E1: "Nothing Incriminating Happened Today (According to Kersh)"

This week we are taking a swim with Lucy Lawless while we discuss “Nothing Important Happened Today I”! We’re talking Doggett and Reyes tummy sleepers lore, how much Cary Elwes is struggling his way through that American accent, how disgusting it is to stick your nasty fingers into your whiskey glass, how HR uses Mulder and Scully as a cautionary tale of workplace romance, and that The Lone Gunmen were let out of their government dungeon. We get scared of all the first names being tossed all ...

(BONUS #11) Wastin' Away at Topgolf: Season 8 (and The Lone Gunmen) in Gestation

This week we are doing something a little different and taking a look back at Season 8 and The Lone Gunmen as a whole! We argue about whether or not sloughing off all your skin would be relaxing or not, add Chris Owens to the Famous Chris ranking (naturally), wonder if we need to do a T2 bonus episode, discuss the pros and cons of Mulder and Scully as parents, and have a very controversial ranking of “Patience”. We rank the episodes, recommend a few The Lone Gunmen episodes, answer emails and...

S8 E21: "Existence Is Futile"

This week we are joining an alien cult to witness the birth of Scully’s baby while we discuss “Existence”! We’re talking aliens parachuting out of a ship in race cars like in The Fast and the Furious, Skinner getting karate chopped in the head in the goofiest way possible, whether or not we’re still on the Crane Train, how Doggett’s Topgolf crew has been defecting all year, how this is Reyes’ fourth rodeo, and the ridiculous amount of Baby Jesus references. We discuss Mulder warning Doggett a...

TLG E12: "Never Meet Your Captain Tobys" & E13: "The Spies Who Went Into the Vault"

This week we are wrapping up The Lone Gunmen while we discuss “The Cap’n Toby Show” and “All About Yves”! We’re talking your classic hot dog mascot costume mixup, how grim it is that Jimmy is now living in their creepy warehouse with them, sexy spy fights, how we simply must stop making fun of Langly’s hair, and how we are now massive fans of the half-man half-crab Clarence the Crab. We have a hot debate on whether Morris Fletcher is fun to hate or just hateable, get sad that our Kimmy banish...

This week we are attending a species reveal party for Scully’s baby while we discuss “Essence”! We’re talking Margaret and Scully getting into mortal combat, karate chop decapitation, fake “friends” and “family” at this baby shower, Doggett conducting Doggett Activities (watching NASCAR and cleaning his gun), the strengthening evidence of Mulder’s cat energy, and wonder who can look more sad: Mulder or Doggett? The answer may surprise you. We cheer on the awkward evidence guy, wonder whether ...
