Not Another X-files Podcast Podcast

Baby now we've got Bad Blood - HEY! We welcome Carolyn's sister Monica as a guest this week as we chat about one of our favourite episodes of all time! Monica shares her X-Files origin story, which involved being scarred by Carolyn. We talk about all the wonderful actors in the episode, especially Luke Wilson, and Monica and Carolyn have lots to say about vampire lore and subculture. You can play along with our guessing game that is actually harder than it seems, and sing an homage to the episode with us! Grab half of a bagel with light cream cheese and travel down to Texas with us.

Let's take a dip in the primordial cyber ooze! We are a little freaked out by our computers this week as Artificial Intelligence threatens our very existence. Welcome to Kill Switch! Carolyn and Vanessa are joined by two phile-friends to discuss whether robots are running the world. Carolyn gets a little excited about her favorite "genetic opera" while Vanessa can't get enough of sarcastic Scully. Download now for tons of fun facts and a confusing journey through technology, society, and whatever name the CW goes by now.  Thank you to our listener Paul for our outro! Editors note: We have some weird background noise in this episode, we've got it figured out, but couldn't fix it on this recording. Thanks for standing by us!    

Welcome to Chinga, the first X-Files episode Carolyn ever saw! Don't worry, you'll hear a lot about her X-Files origin story. We also reflect (no pun intended) on our favourite bald guys, talk a lot about Stephen King, and Carolyn takes her own stab at being a prolific horror writer to tell Vanessa a story that totally freaks her out. Find out what we're shipping this time and shudder along with us as we talk about possibly one of the creepiest X-Files episodes ever!  

  This week we pay tribute to teen angst and Mulder's boyish agility! The trees are alive, with the sound of angry dads--it seems. Carolyn and Vanessa view the X-Files through adolescent glasses! Does it smell like teen spirit in here? Download now and don't get trapped in the orchard after curfew! Good news! Thanks to our awesome patrons on patreon.com, we are getting a new recorder! This will help us avoid audio issues in the future. Season 5 has been a wild audio ride! Thanks everyone for your regular support! Shout out to: Alex, Anna-Karin, Daniel, Erika, Jemimah, Jennifer, John, Maria, Michelle, Monica, Naomi, Peter, Sara, Vicki, and Vin!  On that note, we apologize for audio weirdness this week.       

How much blue paint can you swallow before you die? We talk to our guest, Lindsay, to find out! We also talk the season 11 announcement (cautiously optimistic), overused plot devices, and wonder why Mulder can't keep his fish alive. In the end, we come to the conclusion that "Mulder doesn't need a badge to do what he wants to do," and end up having our very own NRA conference. Enjoy the crazy!  

This episode will melt your face off! This week Vanessa and Carolyn welcome a new and exciting guest! Andrea Warner from the podcast Pop This! comes by to share her hot takes on feminism, pop culture, and being driven by the Cigarette Smoking Man. We get down to the 'bones' of the episode and have a great time laughing at Mulder's fight skills and Scully's desert wanderings in a nightgown. Download today for maximum episode freshness!  Thank you to our listener Paul for the amazing outro music!

Before we get into the description, we apologize for the audio quality this week. Our recorder is acting less-than-stellar. We are in the process of rectifying that situation, but for now, we hope that you will stick with us and enjoy this episode anyway! Next week will be better, we promise. This week, we tackle The Post-Modern Prometheus - the X-Files episode that has sparked many an internet think piece. On that note, trigger warning: we talk about rape in this episode. But we also talk about fun things, such as what Cher would be like as a mom. Carolyn also gives us her best Mutato impression, and, as always, we go down with the Mulder & Scully ship. To Carolyn's surprise, Vanessa gets the shippiest she ever has! Listen also for a taste of what Mulder's voicemail greeting would be, according to us. Thanks as always for listening!  

This week we wander off the main path and travel off-road with Carolyn and Amanda! Tag along on our impromptu camping trip with Mulder and Scully. Ever wonder which podcast host would be the one to keep the other two alive? The answer probably won't surprise you! All this and our favourite segments, including shipping, oh plenty of shipping! So let Amanda get you a marshmallow for roasting on the fire as we cozy up and sing some campfire songs!  Thanks to listener Paul for the outro song!

Vanessa and Carolyn welcome back an erstwhile guest to chat about their favourite trio, the Lone Gunmen! KB joins the girls to cover this fine 1989 vintage episode (like a fine wine...Get it? Ahem...Anyone? Tough room). Topics covered include huge cell phones the size of Mulder's head, Mulder's wedding ring and fan theories about Mulder's supposed former marriage, hackers, and 90s haircuts! We also ponder what happened to Mulder's pants, and who X lets into his bathtub... Thanks to listener Paul for the outro song!

It's baaack! Redux again! This week Carolyn and Vanessa have a blast talking about this conspiracy-packed episode.  Vanessa wonders what a syndicate group therapy session would look like. Carolyn wonders if hospital visiting hours are enforced when your nurses are shippers. We answer some important questions! Does Scully have gal pals? Why is sad Mulder so very sad? Where can we get our dinner cloned? All this and some crazy fan theories mainly surrounding CSM, Skinner, Scully's mom and a priest--not necessarily in that order. 

We're back! Welcome to Season 5! Carolyn and Vanessa can barely contain their excitement about reaching their favourite season of the X-Files. We read some listener comments and questions to get the ball rolling, then pick apart Mulder's murder, discuss Scully's infamous Southern Blot, and find ourselves stymied by the black oil AGAIN. We then explore a couple super important questions: Were aliens involved in the Cold War? Who is the anti-shipper of the X-Files? And where does Skinner get his power?  Download now for NAXFPP redux! (Note: We are sorry in advance for any audio weirdness due to technical difficulties.)  

Amanda joins Vanessa and Carolyn again to wrap up season 4, and she makes some pretty bold guesses about what she missed.

We wanna be where the pillows are, so get comfy with NAXFPP! In the season four finale Carolyn and Vanessa break it down and get biblical. We get into a serious conversation about the importance of faith, but have faith that we have plenty of laughs along the way! We also wish for Mulder and Scully currency, highlight the plight of women in the FBI, and WOW we are crazy about the WOW signal... and the disturbing sound of space... Find your comfy pillow and download now! Thanks to Paul for creating our outro song and listen to episode 420 for his tribute to our theme song.

We're chasing some demons this week! Our curly-haired angels, Carolyn and Vanessa, woke up in a strange place and can't quite figure out why youtube keeps suggesting alien abduction videos. C wonders what Scully writes about Mulder in her diary and V gets psychological! This episode has it all, some top notch shipping, 90s moments, a myriad of fun facts and fashion you can catwalk into a crime scene with! Also, don't miss an exciting visit to our favourite coastal Rhode island town, Quantamahalish...Quantamagagadoodoo? Download to find out if we ever get the pronunciation right! 

Good morning starshine, the earth says hello! In this episode, we chat with Vin Forte of the podcast "Any Time With Vin Forte" about the classic Simpsons episode, "The Springfield Files." We hear Vin's thoughts on the Revival and the X-Files in general, hear fun facts from both Carolyn and Vin, and talk about a whole slew of 90s moments. Vin is appalled by Carolyn's choice of aquarium in a landlocked state, and Vanessa commiserates. We try to get to the bottom of the Red Speedo mystery and find out one of the best-kept Simpsons secrets! Vin also wows us with his impressions of cartoon characters, and we discuss what the Simpsons version did better than the X-Files themselves. Don't be afraid! We bring you love!  

Carolyn and Vanessa sing an elegy for this X-Files episode that scared Carolyn when she was just a youngin'! We harness that fear and explore paranormal phenomena such as spectres of death and ghosts. Then, we dive into the most important questions: "Could Scully's therapist have a crush on Mulder?" and "Does Mulder even lift?"  Thanks to Jackson Beats for letting us use his track for our closing song! Check out his YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/user/Shmackinj  

This episode is the bees knees! If they have knees... Carolyn and Vanessa get buzzing on the topic of bees, and C investigates 90s horror movies that could make you afraid to leave the house! V gives you her infectious lowdown on smallpox and both girls sing the praises of our favorite bespectacled bald Assistant Director. You won't have to make a deal with the devil in order to enjoy our episode this week, honey--let us buzz in your ears! Thanks to Paul for creating our outro song and his aforementioned tribute to our theme song. Check out his Soundcloud here: https://soundcloud.com/thedivisiontree

Amanda joins Vanessa and Carolyn again to talk about this X-Files episode that is actually quite a big deal (contrary to its title)! This week, we feature a tribute to our theme song sent to us by a fan, the ever popular Science With Amanda segment, and a Shipping Report so hot, Carolyn can hardly contain herself! This podcast also is teeming with talk of tails... And don't forget: The H is silent! Thanks to Paul for creating our outro song and his aforementioned tribute to our theme song.

Join Carolyn & Vanessa for a little chat about this X-Files episode whose title may or may not be Latin...

Carolyn and Vanessa are once again joined by Georgia and baby Hank, and this time Hank makes himself heard! He gives his opinion on the passing of our intrepid podcasters' favorite agent, and gets some salty life advice from "Auntie Carolyn." C and V also discover that they are on different sides of the East Coast/West Coast rap battle, question why Chris Carter kills off so many characters, and enjoy some Scully Sass and 90's music. All this and an important lesson from our podcasters: never go to the back of an airplane with a mustached dude!
