The eX-Files: The X-Files 1.24 The Erlenmeyer Flask

Welcome to The eX-Files, a Beyond Buffering podcast where hosts Jenny Owen Youngs and Kristin Russo cover The X-Files one episode at a time, spoiler free. You know that feeling when the genetic material you found in an erlenmeyer flask has an extra pair of nucleotides and it simply MUST be extraterrestrial?! This week Mulder is ogling floating alien-man-hybrids suspended in tanks of fluid and working through some of his biggest daddy issues to date while Scully finally gets to believing after the one-two punch of a hot lady scientist at Georgetown and an actual, literal, holy-actual-shit ALIEN FETUS preserved in dry ice. *deep breath* Also, The Smoking Man's filing system has returned, late night phone calls run rampant, there is an ominous man in a crew cut, and The X-Files may be no more.... Please join us for the season finale of The X-Files: The Erlenmeyer Flask! Producer LaToya Ferguson gives "The Erlenmeyer Flask" 1/5 Trust... Trust...
