S9 E8: "It'll Be A Coal Day in Hell(bound)" 1:24:32

13 päivää sitten1:24:32

1:24:32

This week we are untangling our reincarnated souls and their crimes while we discuss “Hellbound”! We’re talking our excitement about the inclusion of some coal mines, that Doggett has apparently seen TONS of skinned bodies in New York (tons!), Sweet Willy teaching himself how to make mac ‘n’ cheese and cut stock market deals, and discuss whether or not Doggett and Reyes can actually solve a case without Scully. We wonder why Doggett is touching all this evidence all the time, lovingly tease Reyes for wandering around with her unhelpful soulful feelings, get worried about Central Park’s lantern-body redecoration, and wonder when exactly Scully is going to actually do the job she’s being paid to do. Wise words from Doggett: Picking your victim because of their birthday is the very DEFINITION of a serial killer! Send us an email at scullynationpod@gmail.com or follow us on Instagram !…

This week we are wandering the Mexican desert without our memories while we discuss “John Doe”! We’re talking drug lord charm bracelets, our new fave the Mexican Cigarette Smoking Man, whether Doggett is experiencing a hangover from Skinner’s New Years party, get some Reyes lore dropped on us, and the return of yellow Mexico lighting. How else will we know where we are! We wince a little at Reyes’ accent, wonder what ideas were noodling around Vince’s head, get sad that they destroyed Mulder’s apartment set, and see Doggett’s wife for the first time.

This week we are checking our 90s emails while we discuss “Trust No 1”! We’re talking the Windows Movie Maker montage that starts this episode, go into hysterics about the melodramatic email, celebrate the return of Terrance Quinn, get excited about more bad Scully driving, and wave at tiny Mulder as he runs on and off the screen. Hopefully he’s on to better things. We wonder where that second baby disappeared to, speculate that the Shadow Man was one of Mulder’s assigned secret agents, laugh at super-soldiers zooming into quarry walls, and ridicule Dearest Dana, as is right.

This week we are standing still and letting ants crawl all over us while we discuss “Lord of the Flies”! We’re talking yet another Kim Manners bug episode, the very-bizarre and distracting Skyrim music, the star of the episode Dr. Rocky Branzino, and welcome Aaron Paul as a proto-Jesse Pinkman onto the show. We mansplain Syd Barrett to each other, think it would be more fun if Doggett loved The Dumbass Show, wonder how furiously Vince Gilligan was taking notes behind the scenes, and get excited about Brad hanging out with Skinner. And remember these wise words from Doggett: The bugs are gone! They’re gone! Send us an email at scullynationpod@gmail.com or follow us on Instagram !…

1:42:59

This week we are hopping between parallel universes while we discuss “4-D”! We’re talking the unexpected delight of Skinner and Brad’s team-up, Doggett’s favorite Polish sausage stand (do NOT call them hot dogs), how Monica’s favorite move is wiping mustard off people’s chins, and spend a truly ridiculous amount of time debating how long you can leave chicken sitting out. Honestly, it’s like half the episode. We talk Brad taking notes from Skinner on how to be bitchy, how much Skinner loves pulling the plug on beloved team members, congratulate Doggett on his comedic timing, and wonder if we’ve ended up in the We’re Done Here parallel universe. A special highlight to Skinner’s best line yet: Say hi to mama. Note: Please check out our guest spot on That Nostalgia Show’s “Humbug” episode, and then check out the rest of their back catalog!

This week we are decoding secret demonic messages while we discuss “Daemonicus”! We’re talking how disgusting it is to cheat at Scrabble, Professor Scully, how much quippy Doggett really doesn’t work, the continuing saga of Scully emailing and driving, and how apparently Robert Patrick can’t remember his lines because of his fear of demons. Sure, buddy. We lose our minds a little bit at Doggett’s embarrassing theory, get grossed out because of all the vomit, wonder exactly how messy Reyes’ car is, and sigh a lot because apparently Doggett is in love with Scully.

1:31:19

This week we are uncovering what must be the two-dozenth secret conspiracy at the FBI while we discuss “Nothing Important Happened Today II”! We’re talking how you just can’t tell your coworkers to zip it and cooperate, Brad and his squeaky chair, whether or not Scully is on quaaludes, how instantly hateable Brad is, and how the writing staff were really proud of their little tagline. We discover that Doggett can apparently just un-fire himself, wonder whether Skinner is going through nanobot withdrawal, laugh at the nightmare fakeout, and realize that of course Kersh is a hat guy. Phrase of the week: A little bureaucratic pimp job. You can’t just say that, Doggett! Send us an email at scullynationpod@gmail.com or follow us on Instagram !…

This week we are taking a swim with Lucy Lawless while we discuss “Nothing Important Happened Today I”! We’re talking Doggett and Reyes tummy sleepers lore, how much Cary Elwes is struggling his way through that American accent, how disgusting it is to stick your nasty fingers into your whiskey glass, how HR uses Mulder and Scully as a cautionary tale of workplace romance, and that The Lone Gunmen were let out of their government dungeon. We get scared of all the first names being tossed all over the place, celebrate Rowdy Held the baby actor, wonder what it is about slicked-back blonde hair that turns you evil, and have a heated debate over whether or not Scully called her baby Sweet Willy. Mulder’s a deadbeat dad, Scully abandoned Reyes in her hour of need and kicked Doggett out of her life, and Skinner is being a whiny loser about breaking into a top-secret facility. Tough look for our heroes this week! Send us an email at scullynationpod@gmail.com or follow us on Instagram !…

2:29:29

This week we are doing something a little different and taking a look back at Season 8 and The Lone Gunmen as a whole! We argue about whether or not sloughing off all your skin would be relaxing or not, add Chris Owens to the Famous Chris ranking (naturally), wonder if we need to do a T2 bonus episode, discuss the pros and cons of Mulder and Scully as parents, and have a very controversial ranking of “Patience”. We rank the episodes, recommend a few The Lone Gunmen episodes, answer emails and questions, assemble a bingo card/drinking game for listening to our podcast, and each assemble our own Topgolf Fantasy team and pit them head to head. It gets pretty intense. Note: Check out our Topgolf Fantasy team poll on Instagram on December 5! Send us an email at scullynationpod@gmail.com or follow us on Instagram !…

This week we are joining an alien cult to witness the birth of Scully’s baby while we discuss “Existence”! We’re talking aliens parachuting out of a ship in race cars like in The Fast and the Furious, Skinner getting karate chopped in the head in the goofiest way possible, whether or not we’re still on the Crane Train, how Doggett’s Topgolf crew has been defecting all year, how this is Reyes’ fourth rodeo, and the ridiculous amount of Baby Jesus references. We discuss Mulder warning Doggett about secret informants, wonder what The Lone Gunmen got Scully as a gift, and (some of us) get sad that they massacred our boy!

This week we are wrapping up The Lone Gunmen while we discuss “The Cap’n Toby Show” and “All About Yves”! We’re talking your classic hot dog mascot costume mixup, how grim it is that Jimmy is now living in their creepy warehouse with them, sexy spy fights, how we simply must stop making fun of Langly’s hair, and how we are now massive fans of the half-man half-crab Clarence the Crab. We have a hot debate on whether Morris Fletcher is fun to hate or just hateable, get sad that our Kimmy banishment didn’t work, get excited about the John Gillnitz cameo, want to see Fletcher really sleazing up a Backroom Boys meeting, wonder whether we’d rather spend a day with Fletcher or Kimmy, and get kind of sad that the show finally came into its own in the last episode.

We’re talking Margaret and Scully getting into mortal combat, karate chop decapitation, fake “friends” and “family” at this baby shower, Doggett conducting Doggett Activities (watching NASCAR and cleaning his gun), the strengthening evidence of Mulder’s cat energy, and wonder who can look more sad: Mulder or Doggett? The answer may surprise you. We cheer on the awkward evidence guy, wonder whether Reyes is just able to fast travel now, wonder whether Scully had a special evening with Zeus himself, debate just how long Krycek would have stood in that hallway, get really excited about Agent Crane and his radical airport controller moves, and lose our minds about Mulder pulling out of a parking spot. It has to be seen to be believed. Note: Please submit Season 8 and The Lone Gunmen questions by November 23rd (or 23th)! Send us an email at scullynationpod@gmail.com or follow us on Instagram !…

We’re talking baby boy Schnauz, Frohike’s Miami trauma, how the only excitement these boys get is playing catch with toilet paper, how Ella summoned Kimmy back into existence, the Frojack, and secret tango pasts. We welcome back Skinner: the real star of the show, note that Byers has a type (mysterious blonde women with ugly sunglasses), theorize that Doggett is a big ellipsis guy, get really scared of Jimmy in a Skinner mask, celebrate Ally Byers, and answer the age-old question of whether Skinner would sleep with his clone. Also, we celebrate the show giving us the greatest Skinner line of all time: I’m taking your computer and shutting off your internet service. This is going to be the next big X-Files meme.

This week we are hanging out with annoying coworkers in dank tunnels while we discuss “Alone”! We’re talking how Doggett was ruined by the X-Files in only a few short months, how regifting really loses its charm after the fourth or seventh time, whether there’s a radon leak in the basement office, that Leyla easily could have been another Krycek, how Doggett is always getting himself into Looney Tunes situations, and how we’re mostly excited that we are continuing the travel expenses storyline. It’s what the people truly want! We are bankrolling Images of Mulder , this summer’s hot new coming-of-age drama, getting excited about the lizard turning people into juice boxes, enjoying funemployed Mulder, and how there’s only so much more passing the baton that we can take. Mostly we’re just thrilled at the confirmation that Mulder and Scully do need to be dragged away from work by their fingernails. Canon!

This week we are for some reason breaking into maximum-security prison and hunting down grizzly bear poachers while we discuss The Lone Gunmen episodes “Maximum Byers” and “Diagnosis: Jimmy”! We’re talking Jimmy being put on death row for impersonating Elvis, how we didn’t know Byers was capable of bullying anyone, our favorite character Stronk, Steve Martin’s possible culpability in this evil scheme, and that Jimmy would definitely be a wife guy, and it’s strange that he hasn’t been snatched up already. He’s hot and dumb and rich! We worry about Langly getting frostbite through his 42 t-shirts, get into a death match over candy, get put off by Marilyn the sexy evil nurse, laugh at Byers’ super-serious bear trauma, and how messed up it is to let your eyebrows fall off into your patient’s open wounds.

We wonder why nobody seems to notice that Mulder does not give a shit anymore, enjoy Mulder and Doggett’s matching outfits, worry about Scully going into labor as a result of dismay at Mulder’s actions, explore Amanda’s troubling work situation, and yet again wonder about Kersh and Skinner’s whole deal.

We check in on Yves playing the Sims, get inspiration from a pro wrestler-themed wedding, wonder where we can sign up for the Monkey Liberation Army, note how Thomas Schnauz really got nepo-friended along in his career, and lament Ned Ryerson’s lack of a Blockbuster card.

We’re talking Reyes’ girl potential, comfy Scully, how dangerous it is to put two believers on one case, Jeb!, how much we enjoy how much Doggett and Mulder hate each other, and think it’s suspicious that Skinner didn’t show up to Scully’s hospital room. We do a lot of bad Batman voices (sorry in advance), wonder whether Mulder might actually be a ghost, try to stop Doggett from looming over Scully and having creepy visions, wonder whether Johnica could be a thing, debate the importance of an Evil Vaccine, and support Scully while she demands that Mulder be nice to Doggett, her only other friend. Also, this is serious business this week, because this is a case with some phenomena. What kind of phenomena? You’ll have to listen to find out.

We watch Langly go full cartoon mouth, realize that Byers was Suit Guy, get sad because Jimmy doesn’t know how to lick envelopes, laugh at yet another William, get scared of a bizarre kitchen appliance, and roll our eyes a lot at this whole baby storyline.

We laugh at Knowle Rohrer and the most suspicious hoodie of all time, how Scully is BESIDE HERSELF apparently, whether Skinner and Kersh take bets on their agents, that Doggett doesn’t know what a firewall is, and that Scully’s baby will happily help her threaten people.

We are on the hunt for a secret Nazi baby, wonder where they got the funds or technology for the Mission Impossible masks, mourn the lack of a makeover montage, wonder if Mr. Luscious Lips disappears in a cloud of cologne, and wonder whether it’s funny to stare at an old woman’s ass. And wise words to remember: Never look a gift himbo in the abs. Note: We goofed up the audio this week, and so unfortunately it sounds like we’re recording from a very deep well.

We get embarrassed by Skinner playing keepaway with Krycek, realize that first names can be incredibly threatening, get excited about Skinner and Doggett’s first physical altercation, find it beautiful that everyone wants to pummel Krycek within 5-10 minutes of meeting him, and mourn poor Doggett and all the third-wheeling he will be doing now that Mulder is back. The man doesn’t know what he’s in for! And the one thing we know for sure: Mulder’s urge to bully Krycek truly could pierce the veil of death.

We worry that Doggett is getting outnumbered by believers, discuss Mulder’s future as a medical skeleton, wonder why Skinner didn’t just follow the trail of spleens Mulder left behind him after the UFO, and cheer on Richie Slay.

We’re talking how we can no longer ignore the fact that Scully is pregnant no matter how hard we try, wonder where Mulder kept Scully’s ova this entire time (hopefully not his freezer next to the ice cream), note that Scully and Doggett’s icy-blue eyes are too scary when combined, how Scully would love to reproduce asexually if she could, and how Doggett needs a big net to catch Mulder. We laugh at Scully’s intense commitment to not letting Doggett know a single personal thing about her, how Dr. Parenti’s name as an OBGYN is a little on the nose, shake our heads at Scully and Skinner being mean girls to Doggett, and pause the podcast when we see a mouse in our house.

We celebrate the return of the best kind of Scully yelling, get excited about robot sniffers, wonder where this strange tunnel boy came from, disapprove from the questionable service Dump-A-Kid, and wonder why this episode is called Medusa, exactly.

This week we are looking into troubling secrets and barfing creatures while we discuss “The Gift”! We’re talking whether or not Scully has any hobbies, how there’s no way Skinner reads any of their case reports, some Geico Caveman kissing ASMR, and how Mulder is screaming at witnesses. He’s back, baby! We’re happy to see Mulder, but we’re troubled by his actions, and isn’t that just like coming home? We discover that Skinner troublingly doesn’t know Mulder at all, how much Mulder hates wife-eaters, we check in on the Man Bat, we wave our cowboy hats around as Doggett gets into a stand-off, and we demonstrate our dedication to actively ignoring both of the major storylines in this season. Our powers of denial are stronger than Scully’s allergy to sharing details of her personal life. Aww… Euthanasia!

This week we are avoiding squeaky carts in public bathrooms while we discuss “Badlaa”! We’re talking Doggett’s ever-deepening New Yahk accent, how Scully is always late to the scene because she has to exchange insurance information with all the cars she’s hit, sloppy vampires, how Scully is terrified at being the believer, that Skinner would make a great test proctor, and how it only took us ten episodes to create an absolutely unrecognizable version of Doggett in our minds. Gemini King Skinner took at least two seasons to develop. We admire Chuck’s luscious 70s locks, suspect that Mulder may have Gone Guy’d himself, puzzle over the plot for a while, wonder where Chuck’s journey takes him after this, wonder if Doggett is planning a bachelor party, and wonder how long it took Scully to clean out that alien mug.

We’re talking why you can’t blame everything on Gulf War Syndrome, how Doggett gets scared when Scully starts talking about the paranormal, our favorite extra who gets a little scared of a stick, how you have to shave lest you turn into a metal Chia Pet, and Doggett’s Boy Scout knife. We point out how much it would suck to get your head bowling ball’d, the truly bizarre pro-corrupt business practices stance this episode takes, how Doggett is immune to metal disease, and wonder why Scully has gotten nothing to do practically all season. The only thing deeper than Scully’s neurosis about sharing her emotions is Doggett’s New Yahk accent. Send us an email at scullynationpod@gmail.com or follow us on Twitter and Instagram !…

We note Doggett’s excitement over drug rip-offs, the exciting reappearance of Craddock Marine Bank, do some investigation to see if James Franco is in this one, shake our heads at Doggett’s anti-twin prejudice, and get really excited about a giant lighter for a while.

We get a little jump-scared by Doggett’s sad wet eyes, propose a team-up between the table slaw and the chili slide, talk about Skinner prepping for his New Year’s party, and how exciting it is that Scully is finally taking some PTO.

We have a dramatic brain wave of memories of the SyFy show Eureka, we know Scully is delighted to be pulled out of bed in the middle of night just like old times, we wonder if Doggett would like Memento, and we note that there are a lotta wife guys on the writing team.

Doggett, you’re on thin ice. We spend a lot of time hating on the police psychic’s discount Shawn Spencer energy, but then make up for it with our love of the weird sheriff, note the ghost boy’s Tim Robinson energy, and say goodbye to Scully as she just kind of wanders off into the woods at the end of this episode.

We propose a T-shirt idea of a banana slug making a little kissy face that says THE SECOND COMING, get sad that yet another state has been ruined for Scully, know in our hearts that Doggett would absolutely inhabit an Applebee’s, and note that it’s sad when a parasite god doesn’t even want you as a host.

We note how all journeys end in spooning, whether or not we would listen to Marita’s podcast, decide that Scully would absolutely kill the “Taken” speech, note that the real plotline of the episode is that CSM’s kids are all unionizing, and how if we were Skinner, we would just never come back to DC to look Scully in the eyes after we lost Mulder. Mulder’s been whooshed away on a UFO, but more importantly, it’s been 200 days since the last mention of the nanobot storyline. We demand resolution!

We wonder whether Skinner told Wayne about the bee, agree how canonical Mulder’s love for Plan 9 is, wonder whether Scully really is in love with Skinner, get comfortable in our “loving Chuck” era, and celebrate the split-screen bubble bath scene we have been waiting for forever. Also: There’s no way Skinner would suspend them for this, this is not even close to the worst thing they’ve ever done with FBI resources. Let’s be real here.

We’re cracking our fingers and getting our Saw jokes ready. We get really disgusted at all the bugs in people’s lungs (NOT where bugs are supposed to be), Skinner starts chewing on wheat and becomes our audience surrogate, discover that Scully can stop you from smoking with just A Look and how anti-smoking campaigns should really make use of that, and we do just spend 5 minutes looking at Tobin Bell’s IMDB page.

Steep competition. We’re giggling over the episode taking place in Goochland and Milford because we’re 12 years old, Mulder’s freaking out because Scully has been emailing a guy called Cobra who’s probably taller than he is, and we find it very, very interesting that Scully has access to Skinner’s private line.

S7 E5: "Just Say No to Rush" 1:23:38

This week we are trying to outrun this messy drug metaphor while we discuss “Rush”! We’re talking Diesel Dana, very aesthetic interrogation rooms, how episodes like this almost (almost) make us miss Howie, the criminally-underused Ann Dowd, and Mulder being hilariously and dramatically offended by being called old. We decide that we’re Chuck fans now, get excited about the alternate episode where a ghost submarine goes around stealing flashlights from evidence lockup, propose a supernatural NextDoor, and theorize that Mulder is actually upset because everyone in this episode can run faster than him.

This week we are counting down to Y2K while we discuss “Millennium”! We’re talking how poor Millennium didn’t make it to the millennium, wonder whether Scully forgot about her ouroboros tattoo, point out that Skinner really does love to sit on these time-sensitive cases until it will be the most dramatic, welcome Frank Black to the pod, and finally reach a 0 on the Doomsday Clock scale! Much celebration ensues. We worry about time running out on this New Year’s Eve party, get jump-scared by Octavia Spencer, Ella is unimpressed by the moldy zombies in the basement, we recap the show Millennium for those who haven’t seen it and discover the real reason Skinner put Mulder and Scully on the case is because the Necromancer is messing up his margarita plans. We’ll be honest: most of this episode is just talking about Skinner’s New Year’s Eve party. Deploy Skinner’s boys!

This week we are trying to control our hunger pangs for human brains while we discuss “Hungry”! We’re talking how Amanda loves a Donnie Darko type, how the fast food manager is giving us Gus Fring vibes (Vince, you wiley dog!), how Mulder might be extra sensitive about this case post-brain surgery, and how this therapist is down BAD. Girl, get a hold of yourself. Speaking of obsessive therapists, we talk about Hannibal for a while, how Derwood Spinks is a fabulous name, how the line between Vince Gilligan and Mickey Mouse is getting thinner every day, and Ella gets to make a very important statement about Krycek. Don’t you hate it when your ear falls off in the middle of your therapy sesh? We do too. Send us an email at scullynationpod@gmail.com or follow us on Twitter and Instagram !…

S7 E2: "The Sixth Extinction II: Please Sir, May I Have Some Amor Fati?" 2:15:59

This week we are traversing the hills and valleys of Mulder’s psyche while we discuss “The Sixth Extinction II: Amor Fati”! We’re talking painfully obvious Jesus metaphors, how exciting it is that Mulder has finally become the X-File, Scully sucking out Skinner’s nanobots, the exciting return of Deep Throat, how Kimberly really needs an anti-Boo Crew security device, and Mulder and Scully professing their love for each other in front of their Doordash driver. We clown on this episode more than we really intended, we sigh at the conclusion of Diana’s storyline, we note how hurtful it is that Deep Throat tells Mulder he is not the center of the universe, and we laugh at all the really, really subtle subtext. Also, Scully doesn’t believe in aliens again, we guess? In the words of Gillian Anderson herself: I don’t know if we can keep doing this, Chris.
