It's the inaugural episode of The eX-Files, and FBI Agent Dana Scully has been assigned to write field reports on (and become best friends with) Agent Fox "Spooky" Mulder. Our first X-File has us going to Bellefleur, Oregon where the Class of '89 simply cannot stay away from the woods, where Scully takes a bath in the dark and gets some mosquito bites, and where Mulder has a f*cking blast losing 9 minutes of that most beloved of universal invariants: TIME!!! Could it be the stinky alien babies?!?!?!
Come with us on our newest podcast rewatch adventure, where Jenny Owen Youngs is showing her ex-wife Kristin Russo each and every episode of The X-Files one at a time.
Producer LaToya Ferguson gives this X-File a scary rating of 2.5/5 Grey Metallic Implants

Previous Episode
The eX-Files: Season 1 Trailer | An X-Files Podcast
Welcome to The eX-Files, an episodic rewatch podcast in which Jenny Owen Youngs & Kristin Russo dig into every episode of The X-Files, spoiler free, one at a time.
Jenny grew up watching The X-Files when it aired, but Kristin has only ever seen the pilot episode. (Her review: "hot.")
The podcast’s title — The eX-Files spelled with an “e” — is a credit to our relationship: in addition to being longtime business partners, we are also ex-wives. *cue spooky music*
If you can't wait for the pilot episode to air, or if you just love having a blast, please join us for our Official eX-Files Launch Party on Sunday, March 19th at 7pm Eastern — exclusively on Stage Pilot. Tickets go on sale to the public at 10am Eastern: stagepilot.com/exfiles

It seems the government is building military planes with UFO technology and our most trusted sources are a very stoned Seth Green and amateur-photographer Ladonna who runs the local diner: The Flying Saucer. Should we heed the mysterious warnings of Deep Throat and stay away from the case? OF COURSE NOT!! NO X-FILE STONE WILL BE LEFT UNTURNED!! It’s Season 1, Episode 2: “Deep Throat” and we are headed to Idaho to wear our Timberlands and have our memories erased.
Come with us on our newest podcast rewatch adventure, where Jenny Owen Youngs is showing her ex-wife Kristin Russo each and every episode of The X-Files one at a time.
