  • Great

    Carrie laughs WAY TOO MUCH. It’s constant. Great podcast though.

  • A Great Companion.

    Enjoyable banter (from either side of the border o believe) and a deep love for the show’s creativity. Not afraid to call out the bad episodes and delve just as deeply (except the novel approach to Tesos). Enjoyable on a long drive. If you are looking for an X files podcast, ensure this is happening in your feed.
