1:17

man who died in that plane crash was inoculating

It's life of Christmas. And.

2:32

I grew up watching The Exile. Seen.

2:36

For the first time I pulled

2:38

2:40

of course didn't know. pepperoni for

2:42

me I'm Kristin Russo. Esquire

2:44

so stereo and young. Son.

2:46

I've only ever seen thirty

2:49

four episodes of Be X

2:51

Files to they were talking

2:54

about Season Two: Episode Ten:

2:56

A completely sensical, linear, clear

2:58

plotline Episode read: Museum. Read.

3:01

Museum was written by Chris Carter.

3:04

Directed. By When Phelps and

3:06

originally aired on December ninth,

3:08

Nineteen. Ninety Four. Wow. just.

3:11

Twelve. Know before Krista

3:13

Hundred. Fifty. Five, I'm

3:15

sorry twelve days when it's my

3:17

birthday, Jennifer's the seventeenth. They did

3:19

a bad. Enough

3:22

money and about they are eight

3:24

days I'm and you said twelve

3:26

hours late for that's her birthday.

3:28

Way out of us. Anyway, according

3:31

to I am the big. This.

3:33

Is the one where a vision.

3:36

It's it is a lie already.

3:38

there were vegetarian but whatever or

3:40

her of league and religious cult

3:42

is accused of kidnapping local teenagers

3:44

for some type of ritual that

3:46

they don't know either. I am

3:48

the baby's mother and Scully. It's

3:50

begin to suspect that a different

3:52

kind of conspiracy is at play

3:54

when Scully sees deep throws Killer.

3:57

In. Town Now featuring.

4:00

With. And. Special.

4:02

We're special appearance by a

4:04

vessel. Guest star. Be.

4:07

Returning to. Earth

4:12

I get a week now. I was a

4:14

zero quake. I think we have to be

4:16

Reagan's because they also weren't drinking the milk

4:18

that else part of it. Yeah, right. They

4:21

didn't know the difference between vegetarian and V

4:23

again and nine before, But now, whoever. Wrote

4:26

the I am sure how scripts in in

4:28

the you know two thousand something understood the

4:30

difference. And made them properly again. So

4:33

I ask. For. Low. Wow.

4:36

Welcome to a complete

4:38

episode. I'm. That

4:40

design and this is one and

4:43

city safe side. I do

4:45

what I did that they

4:47

are that line of sight

4:49

unseen for residents for reasons

4:51

ah. Does we're good at heart? All about those

4:53

reasons of I am I. This is the first time

4:55

that you've ever been able to give your own. Scary.

4:58

Ranking right? Yeah, It's

5:00

it's. weird. That. Really

5:03

a layer. Of

5:05

usually at a glorious layer

5:07

allied. With goal. I don't know.

5:10

I think it's all like that

5:12

he didn't like. Started on Saturday.

5:14

It's It's a beautiful, beautiful layers.

5:17

It's because every time you invite us over

5:19

to your lair you like pull over the

5:21

Prado like props that that make that must,

5:23

the bank and whatever. and and when we

5:25

leave you put that away and you're a.

5:27

Part of the like at that

5:29

he had much for your fancy

5:31

last racing gold. but yes, so.

5:33

My Theory ranking for this

5:36

episode. Read Museum is. One.

5:38

Point Four out of five. Kids

5:41

as guinea pigs. The

5:45

lenses break this down. Sally

5:47

please. One of course. Is

5:50

for the opening theme. As always, Whom?

5:52

don't you dare sing it Jedi? Can

5:54

I know you have seen yet? Don't.

5:57

Have you think you can only thing it in the major

5:59

key. Yeah, so it's the only way

6:01

I allow it. That's the good stuff. Okay,

6:05

I would never do that to you,

6:07

Latoya. So I gave an additional

6:09

0.152 written by Chris

6:11

Carter, which to me are the

6:13

four scariest words in the universe.

6:16

And I know technically saying that I should give

6:18

the episode at least a five then, but

6:21

I don't want to give that man power, so I'm not going

6:23

to do it. But just know if you

6:26

see that more often than not, you

6:29

know what you're getting. And

6:31

then I'm going to give 0.25

6:34

to the sound fully worked to

6:36

the bugs in the woods with

6:38

Katie. Although we should

6:40

just be happy that that big

6:42

ass crow, that goofy ass big

6:45

ass crow didn't bring down the

6:47

scary ranking because that I

6:49

just watched. I'm sorry, it's slightly

6:51

derailed, but it isn't in the scary thing

6:53

where I just watched an episode of Charmed

6:56

from season four where so much

6:58

of the episode is goofy. And it is like

7:00

a vampire episode because they're like, we're finally doing

7:02

a vampire episode after Buffy left the WB. So

7:05

they did that. And they literally have

7:08

bats attack Paige's

7:10

page. And it is so cool. It's

7:14

like the one cool moment with the

7:17

bats because they invoke Hitchcock's the birds.

7:19

And it's like actually genuinely freaky. And

7:21

it's the opposite of this crow thing.

7:24

The crow that crow moment made me feel like

7:26

we were supposed to watch it in like a

7:28

3D theater and the crow would pop out at

7:30

me. Like that's the vibe that I

7:33

had real like I definitely

7:35

wanted to call the red holding

7:38

the crow. But ultimately,

7:40

my thing is with this episode is that

7:42

it is kind of too much of a

7:44

mishmash to be like scary, even though it

7:46

like it tries its hardest. Early

7:48

on, like in the first like the opening

7:51

scenes, like they're overloading the score and like

7:53

they're like, this should be scary. What's

7:55

happened to this teenage boy? But

7:59

the more this episode goes on, The runway. Know.

8:01

Just. A mess. Ah, really the best

8:04

thing about this episode is that

8:06

it finally provided me contacts for

8:08

that episode of Picket Fences. With

8:10

me always assessing we will be discussing

8:12

know videos as much. My first episode

8:15

of Picket Fences for the allow you

8:17

want more ideas a buddy tell a

8:19

baby he knows I'm doing a seriously

8:21

are written by Somebody Tell You the

8:23

opposite of written by Chris Carter. I

8:26

also love that it this way and

8:28

the scary ranking of listeners you know

8:31

will go in now knowing that. One.

8:33

Point one: Five is Not.

8:35

About the episode at all if it's

8:38

an episode of have written by Chris

8:40

Carter that it automatically now as getting

8:42

one for the credits and the point

8:44

one five for Chris Carter what's the

8:46

point One five ten shades depending on

8:48

what Chris Carter the up to you

8:50

about your a really suffering say I

8:52

will also out of his kept a

8:54

scary but may be a trigger warning

8:56

just for that genuine the actual meets

8:59

draw me in this episode because they've

9:01

decided to go to meet flat as

9:03

a way I'm of his his I

9:05

after doing. So we should not have done that. Yeah,

9:08

and I you put that in your production notes.

9:10

and I mean a. Feeling of it's pretty

9:12

clear months ago that it was a real meat

9:14

plant but ah my and I'm glad to get

9:16

confirmation. That are they did. this isn't They

9:18

won't do it again because you would

9:21

think that after they shot at a

9:23

real sewage plant and they might have

9:25

had the foresight to be like location

9:27

suits where things are gross. Maybe not.

9:30

As really thought cheaper You know the agreeing with

9:32

that and then they realize maybe one of the

9:34

always have to take the short cuts with the

9:36

budget. Swollen. I mean, they're right.

9:38

There could have also been some. You.

9:40

Know before they were there in there with.

9:42

The actual meat they could have thought

9:45

like would probably be really cool. Shooting

9:47

wise, really realistic. really be no act

9:49

by the in that I mean they're

9:51

correct their it is very realistic. I'm

9:54

trying to get the bureau there and

9:56

a new suit on a set of

9:58

city talking about. My.

10:01

Our current life is V again and she

10:03

sat down on the couch as I hit

10:05

play with our. Dinner and I was

10:08

little. I. Am so sorry it

10:10

is such that night. And

10:12

is a bit better suited. Want you to eat while

10:15

watching the X files? Yeah! Yeah yeah yeah yeah

10:17

you seven but the others you didn't get in

10:19

like meal real quick before it gets into the

10:21

bad stuff. This one. not even one. Second before

10:23

the were displaced and up me. Anyway,

10:27

What a perfect segue to be. Sexual tension? awards. which

10:30

we are not nearly of shooting. At

10:33

the. Oh that's

10:35

what I hear. It's like met me. I

10:37

think sex. Acts say ah

10:40

big thoughts. One

10:42

nice thing about what a horrific mess

10:44

this episode is. Is.

10:46

That is distracted me from mother's hair. I don't have

10:48

a mother's hair a thick as I didn't notice it

10:50

because everything else was. Too wild if

10:52

it did go back to duck laying.

10:55

A at Least Duckling. A decent place again.

10:57

This episode was so bad I was focus

10:59

on other things. I went

11:01

to I'm and Air B and Be

11:03

very recently and there. Were I walked

11:05

into the bathroom of they Are being

11:07

Be In there was but one thing

11:09

hanging on the bathroom wall and it

11:11

was just a framed picture of a

11:13

duckling at and does it follow it

11:15

I like wow no matter where I

11:17

go very is you know that? Oh.

11:20

Well. I guess you've gotten some of. Our big thoughts

11:23

on this episode but any others

11:25

from huge, any. I. Mean, I think.

11:28

Aside from this episode giving

11:30

Latoya contacts for a ticket

11:32

senses episode after. A

11:35

very long time of his, it's been like

11:37

if your monthly payment I wasn't either brought.

11:39

I'm like that, except at several long months

11:41

of uncertainty. see. I'm

11:43

I. I hope we can all agree on what did.

11:46

The. Real A like. Highlight.

11:49

Is. Of. This

11:51

episode. The. Sheriff Sons

11:53

Truck. Who. The Saracens. His

11:55

truck is really nice and there's actually.

11:58

Some. kind of like There's something

12:01

out right now. I can't remember

12:03

if I think it might be a Ford that

12:06

has the, they come in like white and black and

12:08

they have the same like stripey thing. Yellow

12:10

and orange stripey thing. Yeah. So

12:12

cool. Big matchbox car

12:16

energy. I'm not on the same frequency as these

12:18

two when it comes to how cool this truck

12:20

is. Oh, I love it. I wish

12:22

I could drive one. It's a white thing,

12:24

right? I guess so. If

12:26

only we had our white nonsense single, we

12:28

could play it for ourselves right now since we

12:31

both love this truck. Jenny,

12:35

what is the good thing in this episode? It's

12:37

the barbecue scene, right? It's

12:39

the barbecue scene. Yeah. Okay, cool.

12:42

Just want to make sure we're all, we all

12:44

appreciate this

12:47

gift. Oh, too. Small gift. Oh,

12:50

too. Wipe some barbecue sauce

12:52

off of Jillian Anderson's face, you know,

12:54

to get that moment to. That

12:58

napkin. Do you think you would be so bold? I

13:00

don't know. I don't know that I would be so bold. It makes

13:03

me think that that ever happened in Hannibal. And

13:05

like if it did, it wasn't, you

13:07

know, it wasn't beef. She was

13:09

eating, unfortunately. I

13:13

think that I would wind up doing that actually,

13:15

but I wouldn't do it like Mulder does it

13:18

like softly and tenderly. I feel like I would do it like

13:20

joking. We'd be like licking your

13:22

thumb. Yeah. Yeah. Let me

13:24

get let me get that for you. I've been texting a

13:26

Scully like calling H.R. It's

13:31

like the first the first H.R.

13:33

thing in the folder for Mulder is

13:35

like like fingering her necklace and then

13:37

you flip six forward and it's like wiping

13:40

barbecue sauce off of her face. What else

13:42

has this man done? He's like, and

13:44

Mulder sees all this, he's like, who took these

13:46

pictures? That

13:50

could all be in a file somewhere if they

13:53

weren't best friends. But they are.

13:57

Latoya, your big thoughts on this

13:59

episode. Oh,

14:01

it's not good at it.

14:05

Or yeah, I wrote a simply put

14:07

this preview episode signal but a mess

14:09

arc episode because that's what it is.

14:11

somehow. I like it's while that the url

14:13

my your boss comes up here when it doesn't make. Wait,

14:16

Why is sports are being bad as

14:18

this is a that and they. Could.

14:21

Put it poses as a critical of

14:23

the week episode ever to decide and

14:26

a half heartedly teaches that bigotry is

14:28

wrong just because they didn't know. That

14:31

sick of government surveillance of a real threat. Yeah.

14:34

Oh, that's why. yeah. And also that old

14:37

man still thinks it was like. Just.

14:40

Both. What a move! I whenever

14:42

the aliens. Yeah. As a separate

14:44

I mean I thought old man. Who in the trash can such

14:46

as a middle man. That

14:49

makes sense to me. I.

14:51

I thought, you know. If.

14:53

You forgot. That. There's

14:56

a man peeping through a mirror

14:58

which I forgot many times about.

15:00

That as good as liquid integral

15:03

part of the episode Like and

15:05

or so. So much happening

15:07

that oh right is also a guy

15:09

in the mirror. Like mercifully integral

15:11

parts of the episode of like know

15:13

those are integral part of separate episodes

15:15

all put into Why? Yeah if if

15:17

you put into a blender ah yes.

15:20

I was I was reading what am I a

15:22

Crown Books veil is like imagine and as well

15:24

that was a bit has blake bits of like

15:27

every extra episodes of in as I say Like

15:29

but also the of Aliens to yeah also we're

15:31

going to connect that's one of the biggest moments

15:33

in the series so far while her doing all

15:35

of this other stuff and other on remind me

15:38

why. Written by Chris Garnier like mate like the

15:40

scariest thing the Republicans would have been reading my

15:42

ex wife was in. they'll be like the writers

15:44

are all like as he ever since it was

15:46

a mess he didn't work in there like betrayed

15:49

you. This url say that. Adequate Cards like

15:51

the idea was exists as to settle Episode:

15:53

i think about how did you ask me

15:55

about that But like a divorce is the

15:57

most confusing episode he's ever see. It. Would

16:03

I be recalled was will be they

16:05

accomplish what happens when Morgan said my

16:07

feeling and Chris Carter knows this is

16:09

like services about what a bit sleepy

16:12

told them it sucks be like. I.

16:15

Thought it was great. Time.

16:17

Every episode of The Exiles is Chris Carter

16:19

separate episode of The Exile. Of. Of

16:23

there's a scene in. This. Episode

16:25

where Mulder and Scully or like talking

16:27

about what's going on in the Motel.

16:29

Room and I felt like it was

16:32

them talking about that things happening but

16:34

also David and Gillian talking about how

16:36

confused they were. They were like this

16:38

but that doesn't explain this which also

16:40

doesn't account for that. See

16:42

us, do we all know and it's

16:45

fucking disaster. Those who vote you know

16:47

I reject Rams and we get some

16:49

other good said ah and get some

16:51

horrible shed so. Let's. See

16:53

16:58

race all know it when I get their

17:00

little. Pornography.

17:02

I know when I see. Well I know

17:04

that the I know that the kids are watching

17:07

the television show. Cops which made me do

17:09

a deep down and network synergies. Yeah,

17:11

and I also am that look, I

17:13

finally know what the Age of Aquarius

17:16

refers to. Zelig. That was comforting to

17:18

me because I never go here. Yeah, well,

17:20

that's what I knew it as exactly bloated

17:22

and I know. Yeah, That's what I need

17:25

to and I was like but wait, what is

17:27

the age of Aquarius though? You know that's my

17:29

like to. None of my siblings

17:31

a pod and you might

17:33

learn going to sit with

17:35

me Military offensive assistant Us:

17:37

Well, I learned that actually.

17:39

Hair got a little bit dragged, By folks

17:41

you know about addictive billiards. got.

17:43

Drags because it's. But. Have

17:45

those votes thought like it because they're

17:48

that beta recourse is a bangor to

17:50

settle like over it. Yeah, I agree.

17:52

I agree Hair with my entry point

17:54

into musicals. Actually my eighth grade self

17:56

watched musical hair and I was like

17:58

oh shit. I love music. Let's go.

18:00

All right. So, uh, enough

18:03

about musicals. Uh, let's go

18:05

to the beef factory. Um,

18:11

we talked about the opening scene. Beth

18:13

works at the plant. She gets home and she

18:15

has two kids. They're watching the television

18:18

show Cops. Um,

18:21

the old, this older brother, Gary, the kid

18:23

that plays Gary, um, looked

18:25

to me so much like the older

18:27

version of Anthony Jr. on the Sopranos.

18:30

I don't know what it was about his face

18:32

and, but he just looked like Anthony

18:35

Jr. to me. Okay. No?

18:38

Okay. You don't see it? I can sort

18:40

of see where you're going with. Yeah.

18:42

Yeah. Yeah. I

18:44

feel like I can see where you got that, how you got there, but I am

18:47

not there myself. You know what I mean? Cool. No

18:50

support. Sorry. I

18:53

am happy to hear your beautiful ideas.

18:55

Always. That's something my

18:57

friend. It does. Oh, I'm here. I'm

19:01

so discontent between you two. Just so

19:03

you know, I'm bringing the layer to

19:05

you. It's

19:09

a negative layer. Um,

19:14

so any, any guesses on who calls

19:16

Gary and asks him to go out

19:19

into the woods? I know what a

19:21

Chris Carter written episode that doesn't answer

19:23

any fucking questions. Okay. Um,

19:26

cool. So

19:29

yeah, we learned that the kid, no

19:31

guesses, no guess. We know it. We

19:34

know it's not the guy in the bathroom. To be honest with you. Let

19:36

me just be honest with you. The guy

19:39

in the mirror is kidnapping the kids. He

19:42

knows. But like while they're out doing

19:44

stuff, so he's not like calling them. So

19:46

yeah, exactly. Cause they would have

19:48

heard him cause he's in, also the guy's mirror. Don't

19:51

forget that. His name is

19:53

Thomas. This short

19:55

for gash, gash wrote that so

19:57

reflex disorder. Oh

20:01

my god, yeah, is he calling from behind the mirror? Can

20:05

we just talk about the, there's a, this

20:07

is a town, there's a doctor who's

20:09

been giving the kids vitamin shots, but

20:11

the vitamin shots are actually from the

20:14

Erlenmeyer flask and they are alien DNA,

20:16

which is why the crew cut man

20:18

is there, killing anyone who knows anything.

20:21

But also- Everything else is superfluous,

20:23

although there is a pedophile in

20:25

the walls somehow. Who happens to

20:27

be connected to that doctor

20:30

and the chef. And there's

20:32

a church slash cult,

20:34

depending on who you ask, that

20:37

doesn't eat meat, is primarily

20:39

made up of white people,

20:41

but they also wear turbans

20:44

or headdresses. And so there's a bunch of

20:46

racist language in the episode, but it is

20:48

direct. There's just a, and

20:51

they didn't do anything wrong. And the

20:53

pedophile, only thing he did wrong was be

20:56

in the mirror and take videos and

20:58

maybe some other horrible things. I'm not

21:00

really clear on exactly what that guy's

21:02

deal is. And

21:05

also the parents don't question regular

21:07

vitamin shots. Like that doesn't happen anywhere

21:09

else in the world. No one questions

21:11

that. And also the vitamin shots are

21:13

making, turning them into disturbing behavior. But

21:16

we don't really see that. They just seem like asshole

21:18

teens, right? Yeah,

21:20

they just seem like asshole teens. They

21:23

just seem like asshole. They seem like asshole small town

21:25

teens, especially the one who's the son of the sheriff

21:27

who thinks he can do whatever the fuck he wants.

21:30

And Gary gets abducted, whatever, kidnapped and is

21:32

out in the woods. And like what we

21:34

learn is that whatever they're being given is

21:37

making them like really aggressive and like really

21:39

shitty. But then like later we hear about

21:41

all the horrible things that Gary is now.

21:43

And the only thing on the list is

21:46

that he doesn't really want to play football anymore.

21:49

So that's

21:51

the worst thing you could do

21:53

in the comments. But also everyone

21:55

before Gary needed to be sedated

21:57

after the situation. But he doesn't

21:59

for so long. reason and also the

22:01

sheriff's kit is actually killed not

22:03

just written on and Is

22:06

that because crew cut guy got through cut did kill

22:08

him do we have a bullet hole though? Oh my

22:11

god? He won the trunk That's

22:14

I was gonna say do you want to know my

22:16

actual favorite part of this episode is that crew cut

22:18

man takes one? Gun and puts it

22:20

into an empty fucking truck. I were wound

22:22

it like 12 I like why the fuck you be putting a

22:24

gun in the truck I Was

22:28

rattling around gonna shoot somebody back there

22:31

Around yeah, I was sure do we got to

22:33

plant a gun in someone else's trunk Why are you

22:35

doing this? Which is what I initially thought

22:37

I was like he must be and then he drives

22:40

away in that blue car and I'm like Oh, well,

22:42

he's just no luggage. Just a gun. I Have

22:45

a question for the room. Uh-huh. Okay episodes

22:48

from 1994. Yes, it's 20 24 Yes,

22:53

have I been hardened

22:55

and calloused to the

22:58

world in the intervening? 30

23:02

years or is everyone

23:04

kind of overreacting to a disoriented

23:08

teen in their underwear with magic

23:10

marker writing on their back I

23:13

feel like everyone's acting like he

23:16

is one is like carved into

23:18

the flesh But it's just

23:20

sharpie. It is just sharpie I think it's

23:22

because small town and like these kids are

23:24

all like people that they know like they're

23:26

notable Teens from what we at least

23:28

from wheat what we know The ones

23:31

we see in there notable teens. I Was

23:35

more surprised when the old man was

23:37

shocked that high school teenage boys could

23:39

be rapist I know there's been all

23:41

these rapes from high school

23:43

boys. I'm like, yep No

23:46

boys in this town, you know, no, no,

23:48

there's no farmers farming towns have

23:51

no criminal behavior at all

23:53

As we learned earlier, especially

23:55

if they're cherry farmers, but it's not that

23:57

I want to see sexual assault But

24:01

shouldn't the sheriff's son have been more aggressive with

24:03

his girlfriend or something? It seemed like they were

24:05

just fine and good. I didn't

24:08

see anything that said they were worse than

24:10

any shithead small-town

24:13

teen. No, the sheriff's son was

24:15

just racist and an

24:18

asshole and was completely normal for a girlfriend.

24:20

And he was like, I learned it from watching you,

24:22

basically. Yeah. Blanket apologies to

24:24

our shithead teen

24:26

listenership. We love you.

24:28

I mean, you could change. I

24:30

do not apologize to you. Do not be

24:33

a shithead teen. No, we don't have

24:35

any shithead teens that listen to our

24:37

podcast. You never know what the

24:39

shithead teen is doing. You guys

24:41

weren't shitheads when you were teens? Not

24:44

like him. Not like that kind of a shithead. I

24:46

was just sad. Oh. I

24:48

was just sad to be mean. Yeah,

24:50

I think I was a lot closer to too sad

24:52

to be mean. I was definitely not a mean teen.

24:55

You weren't either. We were... No, I

24:58

wasn't mean, but I definitely was a fool.

25:01

A fool is different than this

25:03

asshole throwing a bucket of blood on the

25:05

beam of doing now. Sure.

25:09

Okay, wait. But the Sharpie is

25:11

ridiculous. And also, who is it?

25:15

Okay, so the guy that plays the pedophile

25:17

I have called Dustin Hoffman in my notes,

25:19

so I'm just going to start referring to

25:21

him as Dustin Hoffman. Is

25:23

Dustin Hoffman writing on the

25:25

kid's backs? No. Yes.

25:27

He is the writer. He is the writer. But

25:30

he's not assaulting them in any way. I

25:33

mean, I don't know what he's doing to them.

25:36

But they say, they say, is there any

25:38

evidence of assault? Well, he said he loved

25:40

them or what if he's a creepy pedophile

25:42

or whatever. So I don't know what he's

25:44

doing and what he considers assault. I

25:46

never killed anyone is what he said. Right,

25:49

but I mean when they find, like, when

25:52

we get to the slideshow, which, by the

25:54

way, fucking three cheers, we've waited

25:56

like 12 episodes to get another. We're finally

25:58

back in the basement. I only got a

26:00

slideshow from Mulder. But I feel

26:02

like Scully's first question is any evidence

26:05

of sexual assault, and Mulder says no.

26:09

So I just am confused. But okay, he's writing on

26:11

their backs with Sharpie. Yeah, he is doing that. And

26:13

he's drugging them. And

26:15

he's drugging them. He doesn't know what it is.

26:17

And he cares about them enough to not- I

26:20

guess he's punishing them in his, I

26:22

don't, I- I try not

26:24

to get into the head of- I'm gonna, yeah. Gurd Thomas.

26:28

Also, why does he have all the

26:30

VHS tapes behind the mirror? This is what I'm

26:32

saying. How did he get in there? How did you get

26:34

in there? How did he get in there? And I'm sorry. Well,

26:37

it's he owns the building. And he used

26:39

to run a daycare out of it. Oh,

26:41

because it's like an apartment complex. Oh, that

26:43

building. I thought the building was a pastor.

26:46

I thought you owned that land. That's-

26:49

okay. No, no, no, no. Okay, okay.

26:52

That makes a little- But if you're

26:54

gonna- if you're gonna have a little hidey

26:56

hole where you're filming people through a mirror,

26:59

why would you leave all the video

27:01

cassettes there? Yeah, and does he have

27:03

a little TV back there? What's like- you

27:05

know what I mean? Why are they all back there?

27:08

Takes them with you in a little satchel. Also,

27:10

I'm sorry, but what kind of construction is this

27:12

that it's simply a mirror attached to the studs?

27:14

There's nothing back there. There's nothing back- there's nothing

27:17

even holding out that mirror. Okay.

27:22

This would never happen in Rome, Wisconsin

27:24

where a picket fence is a set. I'm

27:27

just saying. Delta Clan, they're

27:29

freaky over there. Rome, this shit wouldn't

27:31

happen. You have to watch this

27:33

episode of Picket- we'll get there, we'll get there, we'll get

27:35

there. Um, but is

27:38

there any reason to go like completely chronologically?

27:40

I will just- Why would we bother when

27:42

the episode barely bothers? I just want to make sure

27:44

we're all comfortable with whatever. I'm probably going chronologically, but at

27:46

the same time I will say this episode was directed by

27:48

Win Phelps, his one episode of X-Files, and I can't remember

27:50

my notes. I'm fine with that because one of his first

27:52

shot was just on boobs. That's

27:55

not how we do things in X-Files, dude. Boobs?

27:58

Yeah. I'm

28:01

so confused. Wait,

28:04

Kristin, are you confused about boobs? Yeah,

28:06

what are boobs? Let

28:09

Latoya and I educate you. I

28:11

can't educate anyone on boobs. Latoya,

28:14

could you hold up Elmo and point on

28:16

Elmo to where the would be for the

28:18

pair? No, Elmo, don't listen to him. Cover Elmo's

28:20

ears. So

28:24

this episode is called Red Museum, and

28:26

it's the church of the Red Museum.

28:30

Yes. That just feels like too many

28:32

buildings. This is one of those things where it's just,

28:34

it doesn't, there's too many words. The

28:37

red is the red meat. That is what it is. Church

28:41

of the Red Museum. The Red Museum

28:43

is the rancher's

28:45

farms, the Museum of

28:47

Blood, and barbarism. Barbarianism?

28:51

Barbarism, you got it right. You got it right. The

28:53

Church of the Red Museum is the organization. Right.

28:57

It's not the building. And they have

28:59

done, they aren't, let's talk

29:02

about walk-ins. Can we talk about the,

29:04

because I don't even understand how Mulder got

29:06

there. Let's add something to the heap. The

29:09

literature, he says, I'm like, the literature

29:11

sounds like cockamatie bullshit. Is

29:14

the literature like the most recent issue

29:16

of the lone gunman? According

29:20

to the literature, Abraham Lincoln was one. Which

29:24

I did look up and it does, like

29:26

I did find little blurbs saying that perhaps.

29:28

But a walk-in is an

29:30

actual concept where you reach

29:32

enlightenment by saying, I am leaving my body

29:34

and I'm opening myself. I'm

29:37

becoming vulnerable to the soul of

29:39

an enlightened soul. Every

29:43

day I try to cast my

29:45

spirit out of my body. But

29:47

it's not working. Jenny

29:50

looks so tired. Guys, by the

29:53

way, if anyone's listening, that's what's

29:55

happening here. Thanks,

29:57

LaToya. In that moment,

29:59

you look. exhausted and also fed up

30:01

with us. Yeah,

30:04

no. He's like, I can't believe that they're actually going

30:06

to talk about this episode. But

30:11

this being here with you two and

30:13

also Elmo, of course, is

30:16

my reward for making it through the obstacle course

30:18

of this day. That's how I feel.

30:21

Well, I'm glad that you made it through. And

30:25

I would really like for you to not be a

30:27

walk-in. I prefer the soul of Jenny O'Nyong. But

30:30

what if the new soul came in

30:32

with the exact dynamic co-host you've been

30:34

longing for? Just like twice

30:36

the energy of current Jenny O'Nyong. That's

30:39

too much energy. I

30:43

didn't specify an energy level. I just said your

30:46

ideal co-host. You

30:48

are my ideal co-host. But

30:51

what is the spirit of, I don't know, someone

30:53

who could be identified as like

30:56

Big Jenny? I

30:58

don't like it. No, we hate it. They're

31:00

too large. Too large. We

31:02

don't have our Denny. We don't

31:05

want the walk-in soul. Thank

31:07

you for preferring me to a

31:10

soul of some other soul you haven't met. It

31:13

seems like they think that

31:16

the Church of the Red Museum

31:18

is possessing the bodies

31:20

of the teens. That's the

31:23

theory at the top of

31:25

the episode. They, the sheriff,

31:27

he's like, because they're different. They don't eat

31:29

meat around meat parts. They don't eat freak.

31:32

Fucking absolute freaks that

31:34

don't eat meat. I would just say

31:37

if this were part of the Picket Fences

31:39

episode, Tom Skerit's Jimmy, he would not be

31:41

thinking they're possessed. He wouldn't be the one

31:43

ushering or leading the charge on that. I'm

31:45

serious. Maybe we should start talking about it

31:47

now because we keep bringing it up. Yeah,

31:50

let's fucking talk about Picket Fences. Should we

31:52

play the layer jingle to get us into

31:54

Picket Fences? Should we talk about Picket Fences

31:56

in your layer and then leave your layer

31:58

to come back to this home? mess

32:00

of an episode sure let's

32:02

get away from this episode it's crazy

32:31

okay we're in the lair look at the gold so gold

32:34

and shiny yeah ugly

32:36

it up for you we surprised you we

32:39

didn't let you have time to cover up

32:41

all your gold I have Ray bands for

32:43

the guests so you don't buy the shyness

32:45

of all my gold okay

32:48

so Latoya why don't you give

32:50

us an intro to this episode

32:53

and why you had us watch

32:55

it why

32:57

had you watch it I thought

33:00

you really like I made you watch

33:02

this X-Files episode so

33:05

the reason why I'm on this episode

33:07

of the podcast again sight unseen for

33:10

Red Museum is because famously

33:12

Red Museum was supposed to

33:15

be a crossover with

33:17

David E. Kelly's picket

33:19

fences X-Files of course on

33:22

Fox and picket fences on

33:24

CBS so it

33:26

was at the time an unprecedented

33:28

inter-network crossover between the two shows

33:32

which so picket fences

33:34

set in the fictional town of Rome

33:36

Wisconsin it's kind of like as

33:39

I said in the office hours it's

33:41

kind of like a pastiche to like

33:43

like the Aussie and Harriet or leave

33:45

it to Beaver like oh we

33:47

just have the perfect like small town neighborhood and

33:49

everything's great and all shucks but

33:52

it's kind of like because it's in a way

33:54

it's satire but I don't think it's like mocking

33:56

that that's why I say pastiche more and it

33:58

was like early like David

34:00

E. Kelly in his bag, like I'm

34:03

going to talk about the issues of the day and

34:05

we're all going to be debating and despite it

34:07

being like a family drama, every episode

34:09

is going to have a court case. Watching

34:11

the opening credits literally, you

34:13

have Ray Walston as Judge Bone and it's

34:16

like his little gavel. That's how you end

34:18

the end credits. It's like we are going

34:20

to have a court case in every single

34:22

episode. That's

34:24

amazing. I didn't know that. I didn't know

34:26

that when I watched this episode. Cool. There

34:28

is, now Chris is going to be like,

34:30

yes. Oh, I'm in, I'm in. So basically

34:32

both shows, X-Files

34:35

and Pick Your Fences, despite being on different

34:38

networks, they were both produced by

34:40

20th Century Fox Television, which you know, that

34:43

helps, right? Both Friday shows

34:46

and actually, Pick

34:48

Your Fences aired the hour after

34:51

the X-Files. Perfect, right? Chris

34:54

Carter and David E. Kelly apparently bumped

34:56

into each other on the lot, like

34:59

Foxlot, and they just started talking about this and

35:01

they're like, this would be awesome. So the plan

35:04

was for both episodes to take

35:06

place in Rome, Wisconsin. The X-Files

35:08

episode would be from Mulder and

35:10

Scully's perspective. And then the

35:12

Pick Your Fences episode would be from those characters'

35:14

perspective being like, I

35:17

wish I could have seen Mulder and Scully

35:19

in like one of those courtroom scenes. Just

35:21

them watching, being like, what

35:25

the fuck is this? Incredible. That would

35:27

have been so good. And also like

35:29

seeing them like with Don Cheadle would

35:32

have been awesome. Yeah, yes,

35:34

because at this point in Pick Your Fences, Don

35:36

Cheadle is the DA of Rome, Wisconsin

35:38

and Pick Your Fences. But

35:40

then at the last minute, they've written the scripts for both

35:42

of these episodes. CBS pulls

35:45

out because they already

35:47

are dealing with really terrible ratings

35:49

for Pick Your Fences. Pick Your Fences always got

35:51

terrible ratings despite winning 14 Emmys

35:54

in its life. It was a four season show. Wow.

35:56

Yeah, I won 14 Emmys and then David E.

35:58

Kelly would go on to create. the

36:00

practice in Ally McBeal, which were also

36:02

on two different networks. But because of how he

36:04

became the biggest showrunner in the world, he was

36:06

able to cross those shows over because it's the

36:09

man who won the Emmy for

36:11

best drama and best comedy in the

36:13

same year with those two shows. Never

36:15

happened since. Never happened before.

36:18

God damn. Wow. Sorry,

36:20

Chris Carter. You could never. But

36:25

yeah, the while like

36:27

Fox, like X-Files

36:29

does not have any mentions to Picket Francis

36:32

or anything. That's Picket Francis. The episode away

36:34

in the major is Christmas episode, actually, for

36:36

that season does mention

36:39

everything that happens in this episode of

36:41

television. They don't say the names of

36:43

Moulders, but they literally say Delta Glen.

36:45

And they say every plot point

36:47

of the episode from

36:50

the like the bovine growth homeroons to

36:52

the alien stuff. And

36:54

yeah, they talk about the FBI agents. They

36:57

talk about the doctor. And

37:00

they do have so Sam Anderson plays the

37:02

FBI agent in that episode of Picket

37:04

Francis. And he was actually in a

37:06

previous episode. He's FBI agent that unfortunately,

37:09

whatever, there's something weird happening in Rome, which

37:11

is often he's the one who has to

37:13

be sent down to deal with these people.

37:15

So this was unlike anything

37:22

that I have memory of seeing.

37:24

I like OK,

37:27

well, should we talk about the action? Should

37:29

we let people know what the twist of

37:31

the episode is or are we keeping the

37:34

twist? We should tell them, right? Yeah,

37:36

I think that. Yeah, let's do

37:38

it. Yeah, you come in

37:40

here for spoilers. Don't you? We're going to spoil

37:43

this episode. So we'll put you know what? I'll fucking

37:45

throw the time stamps in the episode here and the

37:47

episode notes. So if you want to skip, if you

37:49

want to watch this episode of Picket Francis on spoil,

37:51

you just skip to that time stamp. You come back later.

37:54

You probably should because you'll be like, whoa. I

37:56

don't know. You'll watch every episode of Picket Francis. That's why

37:58

I hesitated because like I. It was absolutely

38:00

like, what the fuck? So

38:03

the cows in the

38:05

episode of Picket Fences are

38:07

not being given alien DNA.

38:10

They're being given progesterone because

38:13

they are carrying

38:15

human babies and giving

38:17

birth to babies for

38:20

families that can't carry their own

38:23

children for whatever reason. What?

38:28

What? Hi Jenny. I

38:30

have a question for Latoya who I assume

38:32

knows the answer. As

38:35

I assume you know the answer to most questions. Is

38:38

this a ripped from the headlines or ripped

38:40

even from like stuff that was like trying

38:42

to be passed? Pretty much, because he's David

38:45

Kelly and like he does this even more

38:47

in, it's really, he's really

38:49

in his bag for Boston Legal when he does this. And

38:52

you know, when he can talk about like W second

38:55

term and he

38:57

can really like go into that. But yeah, he loves

38:59

talking about the issues of the day. And

39:01

that's why the show was kind of ahead of

39:03

its time because he was talking about like current

39:06

events and issues. And of course controversial because you

39:08

know, we're talking about like the taboo issues. No

39:10

one's talking about like television too.

39:12

So yeah. But that's what made

39:14

watching this so incredible for me and why

39:17

I really do want to watch the series

39:19

is because you, for me, a

39:21

first time viewer, I like came in and by

39:23

the first few scenes, I'm like, oh, this is like a

39:26

satire, right? It's like funny and kind

39:28

of slapstick in its moments and its beats.

39:31

And then inside of the episode, I'm

39:33

like, wow, they're really raising like pretty

39:35

important questions about like fetuses

39:37

and like consent and rights. And then

39:40

the daughter who's played by what's her

39:42

face? What's the daughter's name? Hallimari Combs

39:44

from Charmed. Hallimari Combs is in this

39:46

episode talking about how she doesn't believe

39:49

in God and she's telling her little

39:51

brothers and her and the mom have

39:53

this like really fucking poignant important exchange.

39:56

And I just felt like I

39:58

was there for all of it. I wasn't taken

40:00

out of the comedy by the serious beats

40:03

and I wasn't taken out of the serious

40:05

beats by the comedy and I don't even

40:07

know how that's possible but I found it

40:09

to be incredible. It's like there's established characterization

40:12

for every character of the show but like

40:14

they will also be like the figureheads for certain

40:16

talking points. So often Tom Skerritt's character who plays

40:18

the sheriff sometimes they will give him like the

40:20

point like the talking point that you like you

40:22

don't want to agree with him but like you

40:24

know like this character is a good person so

40:27

you're like you're trying to see his side even though

40:29

he gets like the really like bad opinion too

40:31

because he is like more of a one like

40:33

who's like I just like the normal good old

40:35

days basically and then you know his wife Kathy

40:38

Baker like she's uh the doctor and more progressive

40:40

but then sometimes you know it's like but but

40:42

you know I believe in God and then as

40:44

you were saying the conversation they have and it's

40:46

just like we're having it's a good

40:48

uh I think that's what David

40:50

Kelly was especially great at his peak is

40:52

like talking about both sides and giving them

40:55

actual room even though like you know you know

40:57

what side he's actually on based on what the

40:59

stuff he's writing about but like he's not going

41:01

to just be like and this side's stupid. Yeah

41:05

yeah it was fucking great um

41:09

Chinese you're you have a thinking

41:11

face on oh no um I

41:14

watched a lot of pick offenses when I was a

41:16

kid like when it was airing mm-hmm and

41:19

I feel like probably a lot of it went over my head

41:21

um the only thing

41:23

I really remember about it other than

41:25

Tom Skerrits mustache is uh Marlee Matlin

41:28

showing up oh yeah she is great

41:30

and I need you to see her

41:32

episodes Kristen okay great I'll watch Marlee

41:34

Matlin. She's the they

41:36

mentioned the dancing bandit that the FBI let go

41:38

away so that's what she is she is she's

41:40

a bank robber who like but

41:42

every after she robs a bank she'll always like leave

41:44

her like the people she robs with like a dance

41:46

I think that she does and

41:49

then eventually she becomes the town's mayor um

41:51

because the town has uh wacky mayors one

41:53

of them does spontaneousy combust and that's why

41:55

they're like the kid was like I don't

41:57

really believe he exploded like yeah yeah So

42:00

there was a beat in this episode where

42:02

Holly Marie Combs gets real

42:04

serious and talks about how her best friend

42:06

was killed by her mother. And I

42:08

was like, what

42:10

are you talking about? I was laughing about

42:12

a baby being born from a cow a

42:15

minute ago and now I'm like into some

42:17

serious shit. But

42:20

I wish, I really wish it was a full crossover. It

42:22

would have been cool. I still thought it was very fun, even

42:24

though it was mild. I

42:27

do think when David E. Kelly did the

42:30

practice Ally McBeal crossover, it would have

42:32

been kind of what I imagined this

42:34

show to be because it's not so

42:36

much the POVs like they said they

42:38

were due, but because the practice was

42:40

a serious drama and Ally McBeal was

42:43

kind of like a slapstick comedy. So

42:46

it was interesting to see those characters

42:49

work in those separate worlds. The

42:51

practice characters on Ally McBeal would be like, are

42:53

you people all insane? And

42:55

then like, yeah, I feel characters because

42:58

like they're not they're not used to homicide with the

43:00

practice characters are so they're like, they're coming into that

43:02

world. It's like, how do they react to it? So

43:05

I'd be curious to see how Mulder and Scully

43:07

would react to the characters of Rome, Wisconsin. My

43:10

God, same. Like imagine

43:12

they all just sat around the table eating ribs. Tom

43:18

Scarat's mustache would be a mess. Oh,

43:20

shit. You're right. I don't know. I

43:23

feel like somehow you'd keep it clean. Latoya,

43:25

before we I

43:27

really never want to leave this golden lair and go

43:29

back to the right thing. Oh, yeah.

43:31

I still want to tell you about the Age of Aquarius and

43:34

maybe talk about some other important stuff. So

43:36

like maybe there'll be a couple things out there. But

43:38

is there anything else about the crossover picket fences that

43:40

we want to talk about before we go back to

43:43

the Church of the

43:45

Red Museum? Important buffering

43:47

connection to it, obviously.

43:49

Yeah. The medical examiner,

43:52

Carter, who is the one who brings

43:54

up the Delta Glen cows and everything

43:57

played by David Kelly, Fave, Kelly

43:59

Connell. Um, who is of course

44:01

a member of the order of Turaka. He's a

44:03

blood guy from what's my life. Loved

44:07

him in there and I loved

44:09

him in this episode. I thought he

44:12

was fantastic. Yeah. All right.

44:15

Back we go to the non,

44:17

to the non-layer. Oh,

44:19

uh, before we go back to

44:21

the layer, there's also another great moment in piggy

44:23

fences where the newscaster is discussing what's happening. And

44:25

you know, he's like, you know, where it's happening

44:28

in Rome, Wisconsin. Where else? And I'm like, Mulder

44:31

should investigate Rome, Wisconsin. I'm

44:33

like, that's offensive that he's

44:35

not get to investigate this.

44:59

Totally insane. Back

45:05

to reality. Okay. Before

45:08

we went into the layer, we were at

45:10

the church of the Red Museum. And for

45:12

some reason, which is never explained, Odin is

45:15

typing his sermon or

45:18

whatever we want to call it. Yes. Yeah.

45:20

If he's having someone else speak as like

45:22

a vessel or whatever. And

45:25

I just, because they're

45:27

like, it's run by a guy named Odin and

45:29

they showed, showed Mark Rolfson as Odin. I'm like,

45:31

this motherfucker's name ain't really Odin. And

45:34

then I was right. So,

45:36

but like, it's not like, if he

45:38

didn't talk for the whole episode, then I would like

45:40

not even really wonder. I would just be like, that's

45:42

part of his thing, but just for the sermon or

45:44

I'm calling it a sermon item. I'm sorry to

45:46

the church of the Red Museum that I

45:48

don't know the intricacies of your religious practice,

45:50

but whatever they're doing, he's hyping

45:53

it. But like, they

45:55

are a fucking cult who worships

45:58

a false idol and Odin. This

46:00

is happening. Is it?

46:03

I didn't leave with enough information on

46:05

their... Who is there?

46:07

There's some other lord and master. It's

46:10

not Odin. They follow Odin. But he's

46:12

only telling them to not eat meat

46:14

and to try to tell other people

46:16

to be good to animals. Because that

46:19

seems... And also, is it

46:21

in reaction to the meat

46:23

being bad for these people? Right.

46:26

Right. Listen.

46:28

Maybe listen. Maybe... I mean,

46:30

you know, this... The rancher...

46:32

It seems like old man, rancher and

46:35

Odin, may agree on some things. Like

46:38

the rancher's talking about how it used to be like

46:40

you would have 50 cows and like they would go

46:42

out to pasture. Now you have to have 500 cows

46:44

and they're all in pens and like whatever. This

46:47

episode just has too many points. So

46:50

we can't go into them all, but I

46:52

just feel like I... This

46:54

group of people seem to just be saying to

46:56

like not eat meat and that they want

46:59

to convince other people to like be kinder

47:01

to the planet and animals? Question

47:03

mark? We should hate them. Boo!

47:06

Throw blood! Before

47:09

we get to the racist shit

47:11

with the Red Museum, I really

47:14

like sang a big song about

47:17

the Age of Aquarius. Get it?

47:20

But I

47:22

did look it up and... Okay. So just let me tell

47:25

you a few things. The Age

47:27

of Aquarius, it's an astrological thing

47:29

and it is either unclear. People

47:32

are debating this. It's either the age

47:34

we're in or a forthcoming astrological age.

47:37

It takes approximately... This is why we need the

47:39

Hellmath. Are we still going with Hellmath? Should I

47:41

play the Hellmath jingle or are we updating that

47:43

jingle? What's the plan, Jennifer? Why

47:46

don't you play that jingle for now? Because,

47:48

you know... Hellmath!

47:54

Okay, so it's

47:56

approximately 2,160 years. for

48:00

each age in the astrological chart

48:03

that corresponds to the average time

48:05

it takes for the

48:07

vernal equinox to

48:09

move from one constellation to the

48:11

next. So we're count that's how

48:13

the ages are counted and they've

48:16

gone backwards and they are there's

48:18

a discrepancy in when the age of

48:20

Aquarius first happened but each

48:23

astrological sign determines

48:26

what's going to happen in the age that

48:28

we're in and

48:30

so in the age of Aquarius

48:32

it's like you it's associated with

48:35

electricity and computers flight humanitarianism

48:38

idealism rebellion

48:41

nonconformity so it's like this it's

48:44

like a horoscope for 2160 years is how I understand it. Oh

48:46

yeah LaToya

48:51

brought up the way that she knew the age

48:53

of Aquarius which is the same way I know it

48:55

from the musical hair and in this

48:57

article they kind of dragged

48:59

hair they said the

49:02

lyrics from that song are when the moon is in the

49:04

seventh house I can I can

49:06

almost not read it without saying that

49:08

and Jupiter aligns with Mars then

49:12

PEEs will guide the planets

49:14

and love will see you

49:16

the stars. I was

49:20

ready to go. Astrologer

49:22

Neil Spencer denounced the lyrics as

49:24

astrological gibberish noting that Jupiter aligns

49:27

with Mars several times a year

49:29

and the moon is in the

49:32

seventh house for two hours every

49:34

day. Yeah when

49:37

that happens okay okay the age

49:39

of Aquarius is every day when you're watching

49:41

the musical hair. Thank you very The

49:44

dawning of the age of Aquarius is every day.

49:46

It's the dawning. Anyway

49:50

so I don't know if anyone else cares about

49:53

that but I just was like man I've been

49:55

humming along to the age of Aquarius for like

49:57

decades without ever wondering what the fuck that meant.

50:00

Now I know. And now you

50:02

know too. What else should we talk about, you

50:04

guys? Well, we

50:08

haven't gotten to the rib scene yet. That's

50:11

where my eye is drawn. I

50:13

think we should touch on the rib scene before anything else. Probably

50:16

because all my notes are in all caps. Let's go from a

50:18

buffering, from ribs to racism. Let's

50:20

just take that jump. We'll go right to

50:23

ribs first, races in second. Okay,

50:25

okay. That is the order of what's the occur. Yes,

50:28

it is. What

50:31

if I told you, Scully

50:33

and Mulder are eating ribs together? Mm-hmm.

50:36

Good. Great. There's sauce on

50:38

Scully's mouth. We've already established this. Mulder

50:42

reaches across the table to rub it off. We've already

50:44

established this. But it bears repeating. Well,

50:47

and it needs significant eye

50:50

contact. Jingle. My

50:56

question is, well, how good is barbecue

50:58

in Wisconsin? It's a beef

51:00

country, but is Wisconsin a barbecue

51:02

seat? No, right? I

51:05

mean, I don't know. I guess I can't speak for Wisconsin,

51:08

but I wouldn't think so. I mean, would it say super

51:10

Wisconsin? Sure, but... Shouldn't

51:13

they be at a mac and cheese restaurant? Or

51:16

just like, I would imagine this, like the

51:18

beef here to be more... Like,

51:20

I would have just imagined them having burgers

51:22

in Wisconsin in a ranching town. Like,

51:25

that would be more... Or steak. Or

51:28

steak, yeah. Like a real good

51:31

T-bone steak. I don't really know a lot about steak.

51:33

Well, the problem with that is that then

51:35

there wouldn't have been barbecue sauce, and then

51:38

it wouldn't have been on Scully's mouth. Catch

51:40

up. And then Mulder would never have had

51:42

to rub it off with his thumb.

51:46

There are sauces. There are other sauces. Would

51:48

you like me to take this very, like, sexy

51:51

question mark moment and make it absolutely

51:53

the least sexy thing that's ever happened

51:55

by telling a story about my relationship

51:57

to steak? Sounds

52:00

like something you do. Go ahead, Christian.

52:02

Yeah, let's hear you ruin steak. Come on. Well,

52:04

no. I mean, I don't eat red

52:06

meat a lot anymore, but my family,

52:08

like, you know, when I grew up we

52:10

would, if it was like a barbecue time,

52:12

we would get a London broil. That

52:15

was like our steak. And I fucking loved a

52:17

London broil, like so much as a kid. I

52:19

was like, please give me more slices of that.

52:22

And they, my parents would like spoon

52:24

some of what they called the juice

52:26

over the top of it. And

52:28

I loved that so much that I was

52:30

like four or something. And I was like,

52:32

I don't actually want the meat. Can I

52:35

just have a cup of the

52:37

juice, which is blood.

52:39

Guys, it's just the blood of

52:41

the... Oh, so you were

52:44

living your best life in episodes. And

52:46

I was like, I demanded a sippy

52:48

cup of this shit. And I

52:50

didn't really like it as much as I thought

52:52

I would, but I do just want to let everyone

52:55

know that I was demanding blood in a sippy

52:57

cup at age four. Were your parents putting

52:59

in the sippy cup

53:02

using a veterinary syringe? Yeah,

53:07

I used a snake bite kit to suck it out of

53:09

the steak. Anyway,

53:13

sorry, everyone. Listen,

53:16

that's just who I

53:18

was. They train

53:20

the bodies and store the

53:22

blood to snack on later

53:25

to avoid detection. What do you

53:27

mean? I am literally not allowing

53:29

you to talk about the episode

53:31

three inside of Red Museum because

53:33

the whole podcast will fucking explode.

53:37

Something important about this scene where Scully eats

53:39

ribs is also that she is wearing

53:41

a white suit whilst

53:45

aiding the ribs, which... She's also got

53:47

a big ass bib because apparently she's just a

53:49

fucking slob from what I'm seeing in this scene.

53:52

I love it. I fucking love it.

53:54

Or is it a strategy? La Toya? Nope.

53:57

She's just raving it. You know, she's just so...

54:00

distant. He's

54:02

a sloth. I

54:04

wish he would touch me

54:06

but he's always touching his

54:08

slideshow clicker. Maybe

54:10

there's a way I can entice

54:13

him. Well you know he's never touched his bed

54:15

because he doesn't have one. There's something like

54:17

that was a little too graphic for me with

54:19

the slideshow clicker. Like I just really felt like

54:21

you crossed the line for me there. Great.

54:27

Anything else about ribs? Yeah

54:30

there's not really anything in the scene besides you know,

54:32

Moltres talking about walk-ins and I'm like really? Okay.

54:35

Yeah. Scully says

54:38

ribs like these. I'd say

54:41

the church at the Red Museum has its work

54:43

cut out for it. Ribs

54:46

like these. And Hannibal Lecter's

54:48

like I can do even better. Hungry?

54:50

I know you guys have watched the

54:52

television show Hannibal but if you haven't

54:54

I highly suggest it. I have not.

54:57

I mean Julian. Julian is

55:00

Hannibal Lecter's psychotherapist? Do

55:02

you think she did a good job? Yeah

55:05

no I would like to watch Julian in anything she does.

55:08

All right well we

55:10

covered ribs. Shall we go to racism for a

55:13

minute? The

55:15

meal is interrupted because one of

55:17

the kids from the Church of

55:19

the Red Museum is on the

55:22

street and the son of the

55:24

sheriff, classic, if you

55:26

would like to find the most racist

55:28

person in town, check

55:30

and see if the sheriff is a white guy and if he

55:32

has a son and then- That's a

55:34

good place to start. Ding ding ding. You usually

55:37

have found him. I

55:40

feel like we're here with Latoya, a television

55:42

expert and so like immediately you're going to

55:44

be like actually in the television show, super

55:47

natural man.

55:50

Super natural man

55:52

okay go on. I wanted to get two in one

55:54

and that was the quickest I could- I mean my

55:57

TV everything is like the note I had where-

56:00

I was distracted at first because of the head

56:02

bully Rick. I was like, he seems familiar. And

56:04

I realized it was the eyebrows because the actor

56:06

is Cameron LeBean, who is the brother of, as

56:09

I wrote in my notes,

56:11

much more successful Canadian actor,

56:13

Tyler LeBean of NBC's New

56:15

Amsterdam, the CW

56:18

show Reaper, which was a delightful two

56:20

season show, Boston legal,

56:22

as I've mentioned before, Tucker and Dale

56:24

versus Evil, the Canadian high school drama

56:26

Breaker High. Again,

56:29

I pointed out that Tyler would end

56:32

up in the X-Files over the years

56:34

in three episodes and I won't spoil

56:36

who he's playing because it's funny, but

56:38

he seems to be a favorite of

56:40

Darren Morgan and the late Kim manners.

56:43

So that's the money shows up. Yeah.

56:46

So I don't really know and

56:48

like I talked about this in the

56:50

office hours too, because there's a lot

56:52

of like racist shit said to these

56:54

folks because they're wearing head like head

56:56

wraps. I called it a turban

56:58

earlier, but really just like a thing around

57:00

their head and these are insults and slurs

57:03

and things that are normally directed

57:05

at folks who are wearing. Yeah.

57:08

Is it better or worse that they chose

57:10

a white actor and I've been really an

57:13

actor is the son of the art director

57:15

and I have facts about that, but it

57:17

feels so confusing because if you're

57:21

trying to do a thing where you're talking

57:23

about how this town is racist like the

57:25

people in the town are racist and they

57:28

are hating these like

57:30

brown folks for practicing a religion

57:32

different than theirs than like do

57:34

that, but maybe not in this episode

57:36

because it's like is that what Chris Carter is trying

57:38

to do? It doesn't seem like that. I don't think

57:40

that Chris Carter was trying to do much of I

57:42

don't know what he's trying to do. It's

57:45

still a mystery still that file

57:48

is unsolved. Um, but

57:50

because these things

57:53

are said and I don't

57:55

exactly know how to deal with it except for to

57:57

be like this is not cool and poorly done. and

58:00

shouldn't have been done at all.

58:02

I also thought since there are

58:04

things that are directly used to

58:06

insult folks who wear head scarves,

58:09

and we are living in the year 2024, and

58:12

Palestine is being bombed,

58:14

and folks in Palestine are being horribly

58:17

killed, and there's a horrific genocide

58:19

happening, I thought, well, maybe one

58:21

positive thing that I could do

58:24

in this tiny little corner of

58:26

the world is talk about this

58:28

amazing Kefia factory that I follow

58:30

it's the last and only standing

58:33

Kefia factory in Palestine, and

58:36

it's called Herbawi, I think I'm saying that

58:38

right, H-I-R-B-A-W-I, and if

58:40

you don't already follow them,

58:43

you should, they make gorgeous

58:45

Kefias, and they are just

58:47

an incredible account to follow, to

58:49

see really

58:52

beautiful, powerful things that are happening in

58:54

Palestine, and also they

58:57

talk about the horrible things that are happening

58:59

in Palestine, but I find them to be

59:01

a really powerful follow, and

59:03

when I went to look it up to

59:05

share with you, there was a tiny blurb

59:07

on the history of the Kefia, so

59:10

if I may, I would love to

59:12

read just the tiniest bit of history

59:14

on this headscarf. The

59:16

symbolic Kefia garment is more important today

59:19

than ever, traditionally worn over the head

59:21

or shoulders by farmers, the last century

59:23

has seen a revival of the Kefia

59:26

as it becomes synonymous with the quest

59:28

for Palestinian freedom and independence. It

59:30

was adopted by freedom fighters in the 1930s Arab

59:32

revolt, it's

59:35

a traditional Arabic scarf or headdress,

59:37

and it became the uniform of

59:39

Palestinian rebels and their resistance against

59:42

the occupation of the British Empire.

59:44

Not long after, in continued solidarity

59:46

with Palestinian heritage and independence from

59:49

Israeli occupation, the Kefia ascended

59:51

into a powerful symbol of

59:53

Palestinian struggle and freedom, and

59:55

the last bit of this is just that

59:58

the Palestinian Kefia is worn... across

1:00:00

the world by those standing in

1:00:02

solidarity with Palestine, which I feel, I

1:00:04

think a lot of you listening to

1:00:06

this podcast know this, but in case

1:00:08

you don't go read about it, follow

1:00:10

it because it is one small thing

1:00:12

and one small, I think very beautiful

1:00:14

thing to learn

1:00:16

about inside of the

1:00:18

really horrible stuff that's happening over there. So, you

1:00:21

know, Chris Carter doing some bullshit and giving me a

1:00:23

reason to say a couple of hopefully helpful

1:00:26

things. Maybe

1:00:28

that's that was his long con.

1:00:30

His long con. Yeah. He just wanted me to

1:00:32

have a good way to talk about the

1:00:34

Kaffia in 2024. Yeah,

1:00:36

it's actually a good writer. Yeah, it's

1:00:39

great. It's great. Who could think that

1:00:41

far in advance? Unbelievable. Thank you.

1:00:43

Sometimes he does it. Sometimes it's

1:00:46

good. I

1:00:48

don't know. I'm just following what Toria's like. Especially

1:00:51

because there seems to have been like a

1:00:53

lot of time crunches also in the X-Files.

1:00:56

Yeah, that's a troubling situation. As creative as

1:00:58

the writer room was, I'm like, it troubles

1:01:00

me that there was a lot of time

1:01:03

crunches in this writer's room too. And

1:01:06

showrunner is allowing that and kind

1:01:08

of creating that situation. Yeah. Yeah,

1:01:11

I understand you had to rewrite

1:01:13

the episode because of Pig It

1:01:15

Fences, but does it have to be this? I

1:01:20

feel like you could just go right in and

1:01:22

just cross out all the Dustin Hoffman's. Just

1:01:24

cross them all out. You don't even need

1:01:26

any of them. Just take them right out.

1:01:28

Then you might take one step towards something.

1:01:30

Yeah, he

1:01:32

didn't need to be here. No. It's

1:01:35

just like the writers criticizing. It's

1:01:37

like, yeah, why not just make this episode about

1:01:39

the crew cut man? And

1:01:41

that situation? Yeah. Wow.

1:01:46

Something that I would like to mention

1:01:48

that is in my notes chronologically is

1:01:50

that the name of the dog that

1:01:52

is used to date Katie, the girl

1:01:54

who gets taken in this episode is

1:01:56

Puppardog, which is a fucking fantastic name

1:01:58

for a dog. Yeah, we don't

1:02:00

know what happens to Katie after she's

1:02:03

dosed and everything. She has to be- Doesn't matter.

1:02:05

We don't- Doesn't matter. Nobody

1:02:08

cares. How are you gonna- Tell us that. Why is it-

1:02:10

People had to wait. The T's had to be sedated

1:02:12

elsewhere and like, that is not the case after

1:02:15

for anything else. For anything else. I

1:02:17

also thought for the first part of the episode

1:02:20

that He Is One would have something to do

1:02:22

with either Odin, or like I thought he was

1:02:24

someone else. And so then when Katie gets taken

1:02:26

and it says She Is One, I was like,

1:02:28

she is- Oh, it's about

1:02:30

them. Three. The sharpie

1:02:33

marker is about them. Also, is the

1:02:35

one- Cause he does- Gurd calls the monster,

1:02:37

so it's like the one like, he is

1:02:39

a monster, he is a monster. Not

1:02:42

really. But also if you

1:02:44

care about the kids, don't you

1:02:46

care, like wouldn't it not be that they're the

1:02:49

monster? Wouldn't it be that they're the victim? And

1:02:51

also if she's a monster, she's killing Pup-er-dog. She's

1:02:53

not happy to see Pup-er-dog, like- She loves Pup-er-dog

1:02:55

so much. She's so happy to see Pup-er-dog. She

1:02:58

obviously did not want to see a dog

1:03:00

murdered on screen. I was terrified

1:03:02

when I heard that went after her. I was

1:03:04

like, don't you fucking dare. I did an actual

1:03:06

depiction of how these kids have changed from anything

1:03:09

other than the asshole kids they would grow up to

1:03:11

be because of Pup-er-dog. Footage

1:03:13

not found. Yeah. We

1:03:17

took it all. We brought

1:03:19

them to our mind. And

1:03:22

end the night. Emperor Hoth

1:03:24

and Ice. The

1:03:27

rage of the art made

1:03:29

the discourse. No. No.

1:03:33

We didn't see. We

1:03:35

don't know what she

1:03:37

did. What

1:03:40

will I become? Simla Saga.

1:03:42

Hellblade 2. Play it now

1:03:45

with Game Pass. Okay.

1:03:48

They go and they arrest Odin for

1:03:52

no reason whatsoever, correct? Oh,

1:03:55

because Odin doesn't say anything. We will

1:03:58

talk to them basically. So

1:04:00

they arrest him. Yeah, I literally, they placed

1:04:02

him under arrest and they wrote him my

1:04:04

notes for what? For what? He

1:04:06

literally, he says, what are you

1:04:08

arresting me for? And Mulder's like, we actually

1:04:11

don't have to. That's it. Yeah, we don't

1:04:13

actually have to have a reason. So you're

1:04:15

under arrest. They see the other church

1:04:17

members around the car and they're like, that's it.

1:04:19

Why? From the cuffs off. Chris

1:04:21

Carter and cults,

1:04:24

a short story. Like why does Chris

1:04:26

Carter think that if you're in a

1:04:28

religious cult, your one big

1:04:30

move is to all appear at one

1:04:33

time standing very still. And like

1:04:35

that happened in that other episode with the other

1:04:37

cult. I think he's like a spooky, but you

1:04:39

know what? When the townspeople

1:04:41

and their kids like show up in like, you

1:04:43

know, at the Red Museum, everything, I'm like, they

1:04:46

are the ones who look like the fucking children

1:04:48

of the corn. That's the cult members. Totally.

1:04:51

Totally. So they

1:04:53

arrest Odin because of Katie's

1:04:57

cosmology. They report and they find

1:04:59

out that Richard was

1:05:01

a doctor. And so you'd

1:05:03

have to be a doctor to

1:05:06

get the anesthetic slash hallucinogenic scopolamine.

1:05:08

You'd have to be a doctor to get it

1:05:10

in these like high quantities. But Richard

1:05:12

Odin was a doctor and

1:05:15

didn't renew his license after an ethics inquiry.

1:05:17

So he wouldn't even be able to get

1:05:19

these drugs, but

1:05:22

let's arrest him anyway. I don't know. I

1:05:24

don't know how prescription pads work. He might

1:05:26

have some line around. I really don't know

1:05:28

how that works actually. Yeah, that's true. Hey,

1:05:30

doctors. In the 90s, the medical, yeah,

1:05:33

in the 90s, they don't have computer stuff really. It

1:05:36

was just a pad. It was just until your pad

1:05:38

ran out, your R-X-10. You could write a

1:05:40

check at the grocery store. Like they

1:05:42

didn't have shit in the 90s. Paper

1:05:46

meant so much more in the 90s. The

1:05:50

one thing that we get from this arrest

1:05:52

of Odin is a really

1:05:55

heated exchange and the interior. A lot

1:05:57

of interrogation room moments.

1:06:00

this episode. Do

1:06:02

we want to hear this clip? Do

1:06:04

we want to hear a tiny little snippet of these two

1:06:06

talking? I think so. Hit

1:06:09

it, John Mark. Do

1:06:11

your religious beliefs preclude you from exacting

1:06:13

revenge, either physically or psychically, on those

1:06:15

who might not share them? The

1:06:19

barbarians will one day be cleansed from the earth.

1:06:22

Answer the question! You did it, didn't you? You

1:06:24

did something to those gifts, Sheriff! And

1:06:27

also, Mulder says, Sheriff, I've already had to

1:06:29

go through this once with your kid, and

1:06:31

it's like, you should have that conversation with

1:06:34

the Sheriff. Yeah. Because Sheriff, your kid's a

1:06:36

fucking bigot. You should probably, like, deal with

1:06:38

it. Sheriff, you should, like, parent your kid.

1:06:40

Sheriff, you should arrest your kid for assault

1:06:42

for the next scene. What was

1:06:45

weird, what was a little weird to me in

1:06:47

the structure of the relationship between the Sheriff

1:06:49

and the kid is that I feel like

1:06:51

usually when this is the story, the Sheriff

1:06:53

is much more actively an asshole.

1:06:55

And I felt like the Sheriff here was

1:06:58

like, not like he was like, sort of

1:07:00

an asshole, but he was like, mad at

1:07:02

his kid. And usually the Sheriff is like,

1:07:04

egging the kid on to do

1:07:06

the shitty thing. I think

1:07:09

probably he's based on just his

1:07:11

kid being around. I think he's probably just never

1:07:13

home. So he's

1:07:15

just never around.

1:07:17

Right. So the good

1:07:19

people of the church at the Red Museum

1:07:21

are blocking the entrance to Clay's barbecue. And

1:07:24

we've already established that with ribs like these,

1:07:26

these people are going to have their work

1:07:28

cut out for them. And it is clear

1:07:31

from this, from this scene that

1:07:33

that is, that is the case.

1:07:35

No, what I just realized, it's

1:07:38

basically like, so

1:07:41

Chris Carter has few ideas.

1:07:44

They have, this is the firewalker idea

1:07:47

where Red Museum people know something is

1:07:49

wrong and something is wrong with the

1:07:51

meat. They're just not saying it. Like,

1:07:54

that's probably what the seed of

1:07:56

the idea was for them. Like

1:07:59

they're the ones who can see. that something's wrong.

1:08:01

That's because there's other otherwise like why are

1:08:03

they out here doing this? Like no and

1:08:05

I feel like that was another really confusing beat for

1:08:07

me because at the end there's

1:08:09

like this nod to the

1:08:12

person doing these studies was clearly using

1:08:14

the Church of the Red Museum as

1:08:17

their control group like

1:08:20

so then Where did they pick

1:08:22

this town? Because this town had

1:08:24

a group of people who didn't eat the meat

1:08:26

and they were like great We can use them

1:08:28

as the control group or like but hey have

1:08:30

has the Church of the Red Museum been there

1:08:32

for like 16 17 years No

1:08:41

If the kids have been getting the vitamins for

1:08:43

a long time Written by

1:08:46

Chris Carter. We're doing it. You know what

1:08:48

we need. You know what, Jani add to

1:08:50

your jingle list We need a jingle that's

1:08:52

just like stop asking questions so we can

1:08:54

just interrupt ourselves by playing the jingle Don't

1:08:58

question anything Don't

1:09:01

question anything Don't

1:09:05

question anything Yes, so

1:09:08

when when pieces shit Rick runs up and throws

1:09:10

a bucket of blood on these poor

1:09:13

people a Very

1:09:18

Conspicuous man Beckons

1:09:21

to Scully and Scully Looks

1:09:24

to Mulder and Mulder space is like

1:09:26

the student has become Yeah,

1:09:29

let's get in this guy's fucking truck

1:09:31

right now See

1:09:34

outside the barbecue joint. I this

1:09:36

is where I was like, oh, okay So

1:09:38

this cult like really reminds me in

1:09:40

a way Because

1:09:42

they're kind of more nefarious but of the guilty

1:09:45

remnant and the leftovers and either either of you

1:09:47

watch HBO's the leftovers Just just a bit and

1:09:49

I'm actually just restarted it recently because I want

1:09:52

The first season's hard to get because I also like I'd watch

1:09:54

the pilot I'm like, I don't know if this is for me

1:09:56

and I finally like got over that hump and then like especially

1:10:00

Like going back to the first season after you watch

1:10:02

it, it's like great, but like yeah, it's kind of

1:10:04

a hump But there's a part like uh in like

1:10:06

the I think the last season where like aimee

1:10:09

brennerman's character Like she's gotten out of the guilty

1:10:11

remnant She's like writing a tell-all on the cult

1:10:13

and everything and she like doesn't start pitching everything

1:10:15

and the publishers are like So

1:10:17

is that it really like the

1:10:19

cult didn't really do anything like they were they

1:10:22

were smoking I guess Basically

1:10:24

and like why doesn't the book have the

1:10:26

moment where like you realize you like you left your

1:10:28

family for a bunch of fucking Whack jobs, right? fucking

1:10:31

whack jobs Right,

1:10:34

right It was like in this moment. I'm like,

1:10:36

I feel like this cult Is

1:10:38

so like ineffective like no, they couldn't arm a

1:10:40

fly lately They don't do shit and like eventually

1:10:42

someone's gonna realize like what was I was

1:10:45

like doing? Like just leave this

1:10:47

place that's full of meat Yeah

1:10:53

I was really feeling it in that scene and then you

1:10:56

know rick decided to throw blood on them But yeah, I

1:10:58

was like in that moment. I'm like this is

1:11:01

The most ineffective like cult

1:11:04

i've ever seen in my life god Well

1:11:06

if their work is to you know Lead

1:11:09

people away from eating meat. I guess

1:11:12

being situated in where high

1:11:15

beef country might be The

1:11:17

ticket but they might want to

1:11:19

adjust their strategy They should try to pretend to

1:11:22

be one of them like, you know, wear

1:11:24

some some flannel and be like hey meat's

1:11:26

bad Yeah, yeah partner

1:11:30

Ranchers might just listen to other

1:11:33

ranchers exactly go undercover

1:11:37

Um, yeah, and we talked about this old man.

1:11:39

He basically just wants to take them there to Show

1:11:42

moulder and scully that these guys

1:11:45

are injecting the cattle Um,

1:11:47

he says with Yeah,

1:11:50

I went insane during the secret i'm like this

1:11:52

man is telling the most boring story Like he's

1:11:54

giving so much backstory. I'm like, I don't care

1:11:56

and he finally said the thing and i'm like,

1:11:58

okay Okay, and then the thing is

1:12:00

not the thing anyway. So why are we

1:12:03

wasting your time? I

1:12:07

had a really nice time hearing about

1:12:09

how the

1:12:11

cow business has changed. His dad

1:12:14

bought it in 1890. He sold his granddad.

1:12:22

He sold that ranch for 80 times

1:12:24

what his granddad bought it for. He was really proud

1:12:26

of that. So I was proud of him. It's a

1:12:28

hell of a walk up. This is

1:12:30

just before the episode truly becomes inscrutable, but

1:12:32

even here I'm like, is

1:12:34

this important? All of what he's saying?

1:12:37

And in the end, it was not. It was

1:12:39

not. One

1:12:42

of the guys doing the BST Pokey

1:12:44

Pokey is the glasses guy

1:12:46

from Behind the Mirror. Peepee.

1:12:48

Dustin Hoffman. For

1:12:51

no good reason. Okay,

1:12:55

so just when I thought

1:12:57

this episode couldn't get crazier, we're suddenly

1:12:59

in a plane with a doctor clutching

1:13:01

a fucking suitcase of money,

1:13:04

and then the plane goes down

1:13:06

and explodes. And I felt

1:13:08

insane when this happens. Because this

1:13:10

is where the episode fully becomes

1:13:12

inscrutable. That's not

1:13:14

what this is, first of all. The

1:13:18

moment where I said this episode is boring, and

1:13:20

I went through that as the fiery explosion was

1:13:22

happening, I'm like, it's so

1:13:24

boring. This hasn't changed anything about the

1:13:26

episode, but just made it worse.

1:13:29

Just wild. It just seemed so

1:13:31

extreme. Such an extreme choice for this

1:13:33

moment. Could have been so many

1:13:35

other ways. You can tell where the

1:13:37

money does and does not go, because the way

1:13:40

they shot the scene inside a small place, money

1:13:42

did not go here. Honestly,

1:13:45

or to the explosion, the explosion looked like if

1:13:47

I was maybe in middle school and I

1:13:49

was like, let me do something really cool

1:13:51

on my camcorder. It was not great, guys.

1:13:56

Anyway, the plane explodes and the doctor's in

1:13:58

it, and he dies. Everyone

1:14:00

dies, but the suitcase is left behind. That's

1:14:02

the suitcase that has the trace of alien

1:14:04

DNA in it. And a bunch of money. And

1:14:07

so much money. A bunch of money. He's

1:14:09

obtained well for this. For turning

1:14:11

these teens into teens. Holy

1:14:13

grift. Nice

1:14:17

work if you can get it. Okay,

1:14:24

so crew cop man, we've already

1:14:26

talked about it. He's here. He's

1:14:28

killing people. He's killing the farmer. Scully's

1:14:30

the teen. He kills the farmer that's

1:14:32

not the pedophile. Right. Not,

1:14:34

yes, exactly. We

1:14:37

learned that Gary never got sick.

1:14:40

Give me some alien DNA. Honestly, give Jenny

1:14:42

some alien DNA. She needs it. She

1:14:45

has a one year old. I'm sorry, did you just want to just

1:14:47

think? Two year old. It's the 90s and now we just give vitamin

1:14:49

shots all the time and a child should never

1:14:51

get sick. That's weird. Also,

1:14:54

did Jay have her husband to have an

1:14:56

accident or was her husband killed because he

1:14:58

wanted Gary to not go

1:15:01

to the doctor anymore? I have

1:15:03

no idea. Cause

1:15:05

don't ask questions. Okay.

1:15:09

They find the fucking mirror hidey

1:15:11

hole, blah, blah, blah. The most

1:15:13

upsetting thing in the episode happens

1:15:15

when the sheriff's son's friend says

1:15:17

he has to drain the lizard.

1:15:22

Where were you the last time you heard the phrase, drain

1:15:25

the lizard? I

1:15:27

don't even know. It

1:15:30

might have been 1994, but I cannot

1:15:32

recall the details. I was upset. I

1:15:35

was upset. Also for a minute, I thought that this was

1:15:37

a lesbian. This boy who

1:15:39

says he has to drain the lizard, when they first

1:15:42

have this scene in the car in the truck, I

1:15:44

was like, oh, it's the sheriff's son and a lesbian?

1:15:47

No. Are they just drinking in the truck? Is

1:15:49

that what you do in small town Wisconsin

1:15:51

or like, is he upset that his girlfriend

1:15:53

was attacked? Oh, right. Oh,

1:15:56

adding some emotional complexity. I

1:16:01

feel like that should be a thing. Yeah. Have

1:16:03

you, have you, did you never drink in a truck as

1:16:05

a teen, LaToya? No. I've never,

1:16:08

I never drank in high school. I never

1:16:10

drank. So. That's good.

1:16:12

And that's what all high schoolers should

1:16:15

do, not drink. I

1:16:17

mean, at least if you drink in a parked truck and don't

1:16:19

drive it after that, that's okay. You

1:16:21

know they were going to drive. Yeah. Maybe

1:16:24

that's why he was kidnapped, so he wouldn't drive drunk. Oh,

1:16:27

so you defend the pedophile. Yep.

1:16:33

But I do want to say something about pedophiles. Actually.

1:16:36

Oh no. I am so

1:16:38

sorry to every listener. This is

1:16:40

what happens when I go on the podcast. No,

1:16:43

I just want to say one thing,

1:16:45

okay? Just one thing, because they interrogate

1:16:47

this man. It's very

1:16:49

confusing because in the beginning of the thing,

1:16:51

Mulder is like talking about this guy and

1:16:54

little boys, which is extremely upsetting. And then

1:16:56

by the end of the scene, he refers

1:16:58

to him as just some poor soul who

1:17:00

blew their cover and I think Mulder, where

1:17:02

are we in this? Where

1:17:04

are we? What is our stance? But what I

1:17:06

would like to say is that Mulder says, men

1:17:10

who know they're sick try to get

1:17:12

help. You just kept right

1:17:14

at it for years. And I

1:17:17

personally just took a little bit of issue

1:17:19

with this because I do think that, listen,

1:17:22

just let me have my little pedophilia moment.

1:17:24

I think that pedophilia is

1:17:27

one of the most. This

1:17:29

is a thing that people do not ask for help with

1:17:31

because it is so mon... it

1:17:34

is so like

1:17:36

absolutely deplorable. Yes. But

1:17:40

it makes it impossible and very hard for

1:17:42

folks to ask for help who need it.

1:17:44

And so I just would like to say

1:17:46

that. I'm not defending Dustin Hoffman, but...

1:17:51

You didn't need to defend him so much.

1:17:53

You just say, Mulder's bad at profiling despite

1:17:55

what the show says. Mulder is bad at profiling?

1:17:57

Yeah. I didn't think the vampire guy really believed

1:17:59

he was a vampire. I'm like, no, it's too big he really believed

1:18:01

he was a vampire and you know what? He was a vampire.

1:18:04

He's a fat profiler. I'm

1:18:06

just saying. There's

1:18:09

more layers here. There's more complexity here and it

1:18:12

doesn't have its place in the X-Files, but should have just

1:18:14

left the whole fucking plot line out and then we all

1:18:16

get there. Definitely not in the Chris Carter episode of the

1:18:18

X-Files. Okay,

1:18:21

so we started- I think you actually,

1:18:23

I realize like, David E. Kelly would

1:18:25

have regretted this whole, I'm going to

1:18:27

do a crossover thing working with Chris

1:18:29

Carter. Like, it wouldn't- Seriously.

1:18:31

No, David Kelly like wrote all of

1:18:34

his episodes like by hand, like on

1:18:36

like a legal

1:18:38

notepad. Nice. Yeah. You

1:18:42

love to hear it. Yeah.

1:18:46

We played the sound clip at the top of the episode

1:18:49

where Scully

1:18:52

says that it's purity control.

1:18:54

What was in that flask got the purity

1:18:56

control moulder. Antibodies

1:18:59

derived from an extra terrestrial,

1:19:01

but Scully's not super convinced even though

1:19:03

as we said off mic, she held an

1:19:05

alien fetus in her hand. What

1:19:10

more does she need? I think she

1:19:12

needs the alien. Like I think she, I think

1:19:15

that Scully needs to have a relationship with an

1:19:17

alien. Like they need to have a

1:19:19

conversation about something for- She needs an

1:19:21

alien to wipe barbecue sauce off her mouth.

1:19:24

She needs an alien to

1:19:26

help clean her up after she has a

1:19:28

good snack on some ribs. Okay.

1:19:33

So what else? What else? Is

1:19:35

there anything else? Oh, this episode suggests that

1:19:37

if we simply take all of the bigots

1:19:39

and all of the cult members and put

1:19:41

them in one big barn, that perhaps we'll

1:19:44

start to see each other's humanity

1:19:46

and the world will

1:19:48

live as one. I don't know if

1:19:50

that's even what was happening. It was a lot of the

1:19:52

biggest glaring at the

1:19:54

cult. I don't know if anything was

1:19:57

solved or resolved. I don't either. Um,

1:20:01

Mulder has been just in my notes, gun

1:20:04

and around. That's what I say that Mulder's doing.

1:20:07

G J A S D B

1:20:09

factory crew cut

1:20:11

man has doused the place in gasoline.

1:20:13

Cause he's going to put it in

1:20:15

gasoline simply everywhere. But gasoline has been,

1:20:17

if you had gasoline on your sex

1:20:19

season two, X-Files bingo card, you are doing

1:20:22

great this season. You're doing great. Imagine how good

1:20:24

this is going to, this is going to smell like the

1:20:26

Jackie barbecue and yellow Jack. He actually

1:20:29

just, yeah, he's just having a big

1:20:31

barbecue. Um,

1:20:35

I wanted to say one thing about, uh, walk-in freezers with

1:20:37

cow carcasses. Oh yeah. Jenny, please go ahead. You were going

1:20:40

to say no, no, no, go for it. Go for

1:20:42

it. Go for it. Um, I think I may have already

1:20:44

told this story, but the only thing I

1:20:46

ever think about when I see, um, a scene

1:20:49

like this, so where there are a bunch of, uh,

1:20:52

butchered things hanging is

1:20:55

the remake of Texas

1:20:57

Chainsaw Massacre. Um,

1:20:59

because Jessica Beale. Yeah.

1:21:02

So the 2005 version with Jessica Beale. I

1:21:04

saw this in the theater with my best

1:21:06

friend, uh, who's also a queer woman. And

1:21:09

she leaned over to me as Jessica Beale

1:21:11

stood inside of the ribs of a fucking

1:21:13

cow and said, Jessica Beale

1:21:15

is so hot. And you're

1:21:17

wearing a tank top in that scene. She is, she is.

1:21:20

But it like, Oh, uh, I

1:21:23

did skip a day of school with a friend and we watched,

1:21:25

uh, the DVD of that movie in her in

1:21:27

home theater. It was a rich friend. So that

1:21:30

was good. I just, I just want, if

1:21:32

Jessica Beale listens to this podcast, I just want you

1:21:34

to know that every time I see a

1:21:36

cow carcass, I think of you. So you

1:21:38

know what the movie,

1:21:40

you know, yeah, I unfortunately, I

1:21:44

unfortunately saw it and then it,

1:21:46

it really imprinted on a while.

1:21:50

No, it's 2003. I'm sorry. I think

1:21:52

I watched it in 2005, but yeah, it's very important

1:21:54

to note. It's 2003. It

1:21:56

imprinted on me and I'm not watching

1:21:58

horror movies anymore. kind of way and not

1:22:01

in a Jessica Biel is hot kind of way. I

1:22:03

also like lived in like the woods at the

1:22:05

time, you know, in a rural area at the

1:22:07

time. I think that day we

1:22:10

watched it also we did a

1:22:12

double feature of that and the

1:22:14

rules of attraction, which it was

1:22:16

a coincidence that Jessica Biel is

1:22:18

also in that movie because that's

1:22:20

Jessica Biel, Ian Somerhalder, Shannon Sosseman,

1:22:22

James Banderbeek. Yeah,

1:22:25

Jessica Biel was like, seven

1:22:27

pail, you know what I mean? Yes,

1:22:31

I know exactly what you mean.

1:22:33

Great. Um, cool. So we're supposed

1:22:36

to keep crew cut man alive. But

1:22:38

guess what? Oops, the sheriff shoots him.

1:22:40

The sheriff. Yes. He

1:22:42

has no fingerprints. He has no

1:22:44

history. He has no name. He's

1:22:48

anonymous. Mulder's disgusted.

1:22:51

And he orders everyone out. Well,

1:22:53

yeah, because he he told Scully like,

1:22:56

and he wanted him alive, basically, he didn't tell the

1:22:58

sheriff though. And then the sheriff full on executes him

1:23:00

for killing his kid. And I'm like, a cab, because

1:23:02

here's the thing. It's just not good enough after to

1:23:04

pull this off. So. Yeah.

1:23:09

Yeah. We go out on

1:23:11

a Scully voiceover. Right. Talking

1:23:15

about how crew cut man doesn't exist. The

1:23:17

purity control degraded and then therefore

1:23:20

could no longer be analyzed.

1:23:23

No one in the church, the Red

1:23:25

Museum contracted the flu that's hurting

1:23:27

everybody else and plays barbecue closed.

1:23:30

So further notice that much to Scully's

1:23:32

dismay. That flu has to

1:23:34

like be killing these people, though, right? They've

1:23:37

never been sick. The kids.

1:23:39

Right. Yeah. Like, what are

1:23:41

there? What's the immunity situation

1:23:43

with somebody who has never before been

1:23:45

sick until they're like a teen? Yeah.

1:23:49

But one other unanswerable question.

1:23:52

The guy

1:23:54

who took them out to the cow farm

1:23:56

to show them the cows getting

1:23:58

poked. You'll make it. He's

1:24:01

driving away meaningfully in

1:24:03

his little pickup truck at the end

1:24:05

of the episode. Why, Chris Carter?

1:24:08

He's happy they're done injecting

1:24:10

the cows with the bovine growth and warmth

1:24:12

that he thinks it is. Not the alien

1:24:14

DNA, because he thinks it's one thing. And

1:24:17

he will always think it's that one thing. Okay, okay,

1:24:19

okay. There's actually a

1:24:22

movie version of Crossroads, but it's just that guy in

1:24:24

the truck. It's not Britney Spears and the other two.

1:24:29

He's loving these movie references. He

1:24:32

thinks, my prerogative? Is that from Crossroads or is

1:24:35

that a different movie? No, he thinks I love

1:24:37

Rock and Roll and Crossroads. And

1:24:41

then also, I'm Not a Girl, Not Yet a Woman is

1:24:43

like a big hit from... What do

1:24:45

you got in that notebook? Poems mostly. And

1:24:48

we're always saying on this

1:24:50

podcast. Jenny's favorite movie. Written

1:24:52

by Shonda Rhimes. Also, just

1:24:54

attention. Oh my God. For what you

1:24:57

know, that, Jenny? No. Written

1:24:59

by Shonda Rhimes. Same with

1:25:02

Princess Diaries 2, Royal Engagement. Also written

1:25:04

by Shonda Rhimes. I have the VHS

1:25:06

of Crossroads in this house, so... I

1:25:11

just can't finish the conversation

1:25:13

without saying, tainted beef. I

1:25:16

just wanted to get the chance to say,

1:25:19

tainted beef. Tainted beef. I

1:25:26

also really thought... Now I feel I've

1:25:28

got to moo away. ...be

1:25:31

some rids. I really

1:25:34

thought that I wasn't going to make it through the

1:25:36

episode also without singing Man

1:25:38

in the Mirror, but I did. So,

1:25:41

you know. A

1:25:43

lot of musical references available to us. And

1:25:48

none from Jenny. Jenny's like, I will not. Jenny

1:25:50

actually hates... I don't know why Jenny

1:25:52

both of us. I mean, tainted beef in unison with

1:25:54

you, Latoya. But

1:25:56

you may not have noticed because you were feeling it.

1:25:58

I would really feel it. I'm feeling it. Speaking

1:26:03

of feeling it, oh, I can't believe you

1:26:05

didn't use speaking of painted beef. Why

1:26:11

don't we slide on

1:26:15

over, why don't we reach

1:26:17

gently across the table and wipe

1:26:19

the barbecue sauce off the

1:26:21

mouth of the sexual tensioner.

1:26:29

Sexual tension award. Beautiful

1:26:35

people. Welcome back to

1:26:37

another thrilling installment of the Sexual Tension Awards.

1:26:40

It is I, Jenny, along

1:26:42

with my good friend, Kristen

1:26:44

Russo, and my very good friend, Latoya

1:26:46

Ferguson. Good to tell

1:26:49

you all. Fuck

1:26:52

you. Here to, you know, enumerate

1:27:09

trad for the Sexual Tension Awards. Let

1:27:13

me tell you what

1:27:16

is up. Sometimes

1:27:20

love is messy. Therefore,

1:27:24

in slot number one, may

1:27:27

I present, you may

1:27:29

offer up on a

1:27:32

sort of standard white

1:27:34

platter that you might buy

1:27:37

in bulk from a restaurant supply store, molder,

1:27:39

and scully eating

1:27:43

ribs. He was into it. He

everyone in make this a community event.

1:28:21

Please. It's all

1:28:23

of us and Scully

1:28:25

eating ribs now technically a Vote

1:28:29

for slot two is also

1:28:31

a vote for slot. That's true Voting

1:28:35

for slot one because Mulder is part

1:28:37

of all of us as I'm frequently

1:28:40

reminding myself However

1:28:42

in slot number three we have Something

1:28:45

even perhaps more special more

1:28:47

rare Take the macro

1:28:51

zoom all the way in To

1:28:54

the self to the core the

1:28:56

soul if you will it's

1:28:59

Scully and The

1:29:02

joy of eating those ribs.

1:29:06

Yes, just a woman and her ribs and Sort

1:29:12

of brown sugar and

1:29:15

I Just

1:29:20

ecstasy I'm just gonna what for the

1:29:22

listener who can't see you I would

1:29:25

like to let you know that as

1:29:27

Jenny said brown sugar She closed her

1:29:29

eyes and then her hands went

1:29:31

up and sort of like a tent shape

1:29:33

over her head And then when she said

1:29:35

molasses, she kind of made the molasses then

1:29:37

go over her head so

1:29:40

I just And and LaToya

1:29:42

for the listeners at home shaking her Listen

1:29:50

let's Scully claim her claim

1:29:53

the power of her own arousal,

1:29:55

you know go Scully go Whoa

1:30:00

But we were in the sexual attention awards.

1:30:02

We are, but, you know, too

1:30:04

far. This is uncomfortable. I'm never here, so

1:30:06

I don't care

1:30:08

for it. This is our lair, and it

1:30:10

just looks like that shack that I found one time

1:30:13

that was just completely covered in

1:30:15

pages from porn magazines that

1:30:18

you were really disappointed

1:30:20

in me for going into. Yeah, use our

1:30:22

mockery for that. Would

1:30:25

you like to hear the results from Firewalker? Oh,

1:30:29

before we hear the results, I

1:30:31

should probably just tell people where they can

1:30:34

vote, because I'm sure everyone listening really wants

1:30:36

to cast a vote as quickly as possible.

1:30:38

What you're going to do is go to bufferingcast.com.

1:30:41

And that is where you will find this

1:30:43

poll. And you can take

1:30:46

your little ballot, twist it

1:30:48

up as tight as you please. You're

1:31:02

the worst. Just

1:31:07

tap it into a slot. Just

1:31:09

the end. Tap it into a slot. End

1:31:12

quote attributed to Jenny Onyox.

1:31:15

With slots

1:31:18

like these, the voters have their work cut

1:31:20

out for them. I actually just went ahead

1:31:22

and mailed a trophy to Ribs because they

1:31:24

win no matter what. That's

1:31:28

wise. Beat the rush, Kristen. Okay,

1:31:32

how did it go last time? Last time, listen,

1:31:35

Firewalker, surprising no

1:31:37

one in last place, Fungus and popping

1:31:39

out of Juggulars, I'm so sorry. Ew.

1:31:42

Boo. But they did get 11%.

1:31:46

It wasn't like a 1% vote. Like

1:31:48

11% of folks voted for them, but they came in last. Did

1:31:51

they forget that Hannah's Bradley Whitford was

1:31:54

in the last episode? A

1:31:56

lid for every pot. Almost

1:31:58

a tie. uh but

1:32:01

third place Trepcos and the volcano

1:32:03

um so they

1:32:05

did remember but third place

1:32:08

uh second place molder

1:32:10

and silicon based life forms

1:32:13

uh i kind of helped that one because

1:32:15

my parenthetical for that was he doesn't he

1:32:18

doesn't want it inside him but also does

1:32:20

he so i kind of i kind of

1:32:22

upped the skill off what

1:32:25

am i doing here and what was

1:32:27

the percentage on that christen that was

1:32:29

19 percent uh trepcos

1:32:31

and the volcano is 18 percent molder and

1:32:33

silicon based life forms was 19 percent but

1:32:36

then was 53 percent

1:32:39

it's molder and scully with the face caress

1:32:42

uh yeah and that

1:32:44

girl whatever her name was she kind

1:32:46

of by extension got involved she

1:32:48

was there it was a threesome she

1:32:51

was just dead corpse

1:32:53

her her buffungus corpse

1:32:56

1:34:40

So, Kristen, dare

1:34:42

I ask, how's the crystal wall looking today?

1:34:44

Is it cloudy? Is

1:34:47

it clear?

1:34:49

Is it shooting

1:34:51

sparks? What's going on? It's

1:34:53

actually just waiting for a moulder to reach across

1:34:56

the table and wipe off the barbecue

1:34:58

sauce. But completely covered in barbecue sauce.

1:35:00

Yeah, it's been but it's not even

1:35:02

I'm not even doing a crystal ball

1:35:04

this week. It's just it's

1:35:06

just covered Jenny. Chris, what were

1:35:09

you doing with your crystal ball

1:35:11

that is slathered in barbecue? My

1:35:14

crystal ball can make

1:35:16

choices of its own. And yeah, it

1:35:18

heard how good those fucking ribs were.

1:35:20

La Shoya. I couldn't stop it. And

1:35:23

now it's an asshole. Well,

1:35:27

you'll have to tune in to the next episode to

1:35:29

find out if it's now an apple. Beautiful

1:35:35

friends. Beautiful friends. What

1:35:38

can we what I think we've said,

1:35:40

honestly, far more than this

1:35:43

episode may have warranted. But

1:35:45

I regret nothing. And

1:35:49

I'm Jenny Owen Youngs. And when I'm

1:35:51

not watching The X-Files or Buffy or

1:35:55

being called Little Jenny by producer

1:35:57

LaToya, I'm usually making music.

1:36:00

music. My latest record is

1:36:02

called Avalanche. It's out now. You can hear

1:36:05

it where you listen to music. You can

1:36:07

give me a shout on Twitter and Instagram

1:36:09

and TikTok and occasionally twitch at Jenny Owen

1:36:11

Yanks. What if at every

1:36:13

live event that we do for the

1:36:15

X-Files now, we both have

1:36:17

to link our arms and drink out

1:36:19

of our blood wine glasses, but then

1:36:21

also one of us has to get

1:36:23

barbecue sauce on our face? No.

1:36:27

Okay, no? Okay. I'm just spitballing. You just want to eat ribs.

1:36:29

That's what you want to do. Honestly,

1:36:34

I think I've eaten ribs like twice in my

1:36:36

life, but this episode made them

1:36:38

look appealing. It says the

1:36:40

former blood drinker child.

1:36:43

So that's

1:36:46

me. Former blood drinking child,

1:36:48

Chris and Russo. When I'm

1:36:50

not talking about aliens or

1:36:52

vampires or the things that

1:36:54

I did as a child, I'm working

1:36:57

with and for LGBTQ plus communities.

1:37:00
