Scully Nation: An X Files Rewatch PodcastS4 E3: "Deceive. Panflute. Teliko"This week we’re avoiding melanin-sucking albino vampires while we discuss “Teliko”! We’re talking how “Deceive, Inveigle, Obfuscate” is never going to be a thing no matter how many times Howie tries to jam it into the episode, Scully going on a hot date with a dead man, racist panflute music (like, A Lot of it), our New Favorite Guy™ whose face is carved out of stone, Mulder being a serial mono-Secret Informantist, and how disappointing it is we missed our opportunity to have Scully fireman carry Mulder.

Scully Nation: An X Files Rewatch PodcastS4 E2: "It's Always [CENSORED] In Home-delphia"Hoo boy... This week we’re celebrating wholesome American inbreeding values while we discuss “Home”! Glen Morgan and James Wong are back, and they came back with a bang, not a whimper. We’re talking the incredible amount of inappropriately-timed flirting in this delightfully nasty episode, how much we love sunny daytime horror, impatient Chekov’s booby trap, Scully’s mom vibes, and wonder how this one got past the censors. Somebody was sleeping on the job this week, and we are not complaining. We’ve got an absolutely action-packed FBI Do this week, Amanda reveals her down-homey accent she’s been pre...2022-06-281h 44

Scully Nation: An X Files Rewatch PodcastS3 E23: "Girls Gone Wetwired"This week we are absorbing hypnotic signals from our television sets while we discuss “Wetwired”! We’re talking why Mulder needs to stop meeting randos in the middle of the night all the time, the evil joys of Paranoid Scully, the suspicious absences in Mama Scully’s family photos, Skinner still holding a grudge from Avatar, and the deeply baffling revelation that Mulder is colorblind?!?!? We point out Mulder’s absolutely profound puppy dog eyes, find out that Mulder is the anti-Walter White, and get sad about Scully’s deepest fear being the possibility of Mulder betraying her :( All the bad boys...2022-05-311h 50

Scully Nation: An X Files Rewatch PodcastS3 E13: "Syzygy. Fine. Whatever"This week the stars are making us fight while we discuss “Syzygy”! We’re talking about how Mulder and Scully are not the Boo Crew this week, attempt to solve the mystery of the horny beast, freak out about Mulder making the most depressing drink of all time, and cancel Mulder forever because he makes fun of Scully’s little feet. We’re hyping up Bob’s Mob, talk about how Rob Bowman has one ass shot per episode written into his contract, genuinely love the letterman jackets on display, and discuss whether or not Skinner (Gemini King) was checking the...2022-03-221h 35

Scully Nation: An X Files Rewatch PodcastS3 E12: "Warrin' Away Again in Cucaracha-ville"This week we are avoiding getting eaten by cockroaches while we discuss “War of the Coprophages”! We’re talking CMB (Classic Mulder Behavior), how delightful it is to watch Mulder and Scully just hanging out, Mulder’s girly scream, revise our Scully snack policy, but most importantly, welcome back Scully’s dog! We gush over Darin Morgan’s writing as per usual, wonder whether Scully and Kim Wexler would hang out, find out that Mulder definitely has a type, and mourn the poor cockroach that died of old age.

Scully Nation: An X Files Rewatch PodcastS3 E11: "Are You There, God? It's Me, Dana (feat. Revelations)"This week we are running up that hill and making a deal with God as we discuss “Revelations”! We’re talking Scully getting her turn to have an insane Mulder moment, the long-awaited Grandpa Fight, the Boo Crew breaking the laws of physics to show up at a crime scene, and Mulder flying down the Lil Nas X stripper pole to hell and getting scooped up by aliens. We derail the climax by talking about Midnight Mass for five minutes, talk about the greatest masterpiece of our time The Day After Tomorrow, predict that Scully will become pope, and welcom...2022-03-081h 38

Scully Nation: An X Files Rewatch PodcastS3 E2: "Paper Clip, Take Me Home To the Place I Belong"This week we are outrunning government agents chasing us away from secret mining facilities while we discuss “Paper Clip”! We’re talking how Mulder’s dad created Clippy, the ridiculously ineffectual assassins, how Skinner is a tank built to beat up people for Mulder and Scully, and Krycek’s clown shoes. We struggle to come up with team names for both the good guys and the bad guys, get disgusted that Scully’s brothers still haven’t shown their stinking faces, talk about Scully getting a child leash for Mulder, and point out Skinner’s soulful eyes.

Scully Nation: An X Files Rewatch PodcastS2 E20: "Humbug-demonium"This week we are unpacking our luggage and our biases while we discuss “Humbug”! We’re talking how Mulder is somehow both a weirdo and a normie, Dr. Blockhead’s Gob Bluth energy, Mulder and Scully’s combined sleep schedules, Scully’s magician skills, and how you shouldn’t talk to the FBI unless you have a good zinger. We heap love on Darin Morgan’s love letter to abnormality, advocate for bullying hot people, create and then immediately disband Wart Corner, and take a run through Chekov’s Tabernacle.
