  • Hilarious and amazing!

    Annie & Jenn forever have my X Files loving heart! They are so knowledgeable about the show and all the details that I love listening to them analyze. I’ve been listening to them for years now and have heard all episodes several times. Each re-listen makes me LOL all over again! They’re a terrific pair and their commentary keeps me entertained to no end. Keep the MSR coming, ladies! And more lists, please!

  • Good podcast

    I like this podcast. I agree with some of the other comments that Annie can be a little condescending & abrasive (at times). Jenn is much more laid back & fun.

  • Love this Pod!

    Dear Annie & Jenn,

    You have the most enjoyable podcast I have ever listened to. Any subject. To listen to you talk about the X-Files the exact way that I would talk about the X-Files is just a dream come true. So authentic, so loving - when you run out of episodes can you just start over from the Pilot?
