Let's all skip out on geometry review so we can MAKE OUT IN THE BOILER ROOM, huh?!?! Finally, we come to the inspiration point that gave our podcast its name! Meanwhile, Brian is SO MAD, Danielle knows a ton about crustaceans, Graham talks a good risotto game, and Rickie does a great impression of the new English teacher, Mr. Katimsky. OH AND ALSO JORDAN HOLDS ANGELA'S HAND IN THE HALLWAY. Plus, Buffalo Tom. *wipes brow* That's right, it's Episode 12: Self-Esteem.

The eX-Files: 2.24 Our Town | An X-Files Podcast
Kristin Russo & Jenny Owen Youngs cover The X-Files one episode at a time.
Though we are discussing "Our Town" today, it is decidedly NOT the play by Thornton Wilder but rather an episode of The X-Files in which the townsfolk are dining on... other townsfolk! Cannibalism: the other red meat??
Producer LaToya Ferguson gives this episode a scary ranking of 1/5 Outsiders We Have To Deal With
