    I’ve just started watching X-Files and I love it so much. I love the bond between Mulder and Scully. This podcast is such a great companion to the show.

  • Great but beware of spoilers

    I don’t see how you could love the X-Files and not like this podcast. Great discussions on pretty much every episode.

    However, if you are listening along while watching the show for the first time, beware of major spoilers sprinkled throughout.

  • Zero Spoilers Warnings

    I’ve had multiple major plot points spoiled in just the first 6 episodes of this podcast. Why is it so hard to find an X Files podcast that doesn’t spoil the show? I just wanted to follow along with a podcast as I watch the show but it seems no one has any respect for spoilers. I’m done with this show. It’s taken away so much of the magic from my first watch through. I’m so disappointed.
