01:00:31 Episode Review and Closing Thoughts

The format’s changing, and we’re diving straight into the action! This week, Crowy n Memms hit play on The X-Files Season 2, Episode 17 and record in real-time, reacting to every eerie moment, unexpected twist, and classic Mulder-Scully tension as it unfolds.

No pre-scripted breakdowns—just raw, unfiltered commentary as we pause for analysis, throw out wild theories, and give our instant takes on the episode’s best (and weirdest) moments. Is this the best way to watch The X-Files? Maybe. Is it chaotic? Absolutely.

Also, we’ve scrapped The Scraps! But don’t worry—random bonus episodes will still drop for rants, raves, and all the offbeat chatter that Scraps lovers enjoyed. Speaking of which—got something you want us to react to live in between our X-Files watches? Let us know!

This week, Crowy n Memms tackle Season 2, Episode 16 of The X-Files, where an alien crash-lands, and instead of making friends or phoning home, it goes on a full-blown hybrid-killing spree. Government cover-ups, secret experiments, and Mulder doing his best “I told you so” face—this episode had everything. But did it actually make sense? That’s another question entirely.

We break down the wild plot, debate whether this alien was just having the worst day ever, and, of course, keep an eye on Scully’s grippers as she somehow stays skeptical yet again.

For all the best off-topic chaos, check out this week’s Scraps—where we take things in an even weirder direction (if that’s possible).

Think this alien was justified in its rampage? Hit us up at thehighfilespodcast@gmail.com—we’re ready to hear your theories, no matter how insane they are!

This week, Crowy n Memms dive into Season 2, Episode 15 of The X-Files, where things get mysterious, eerie, and honestly, a little confusing. Voodoo, zombies, and an unsettling amount of needles – this one had all the ingredients for a killer episode, but did it actually deliver? Spoiler: We have thoughts.

Between trying to figure out the episode’s plot (or lack thereof) and questioning Mulder’s ability to take anything seriously, we also explore the age-old question: actually we cant remember what that question was.

For all the best off-topic tangents, check out this week’s Scraps, where things get even weirder. And if you think we’re cursed for real after this one, hit us up at thehighfilespodcast@gmail.com – we’ll take all the protection spells and production tips we can get.

Get ready for some serious investigative and speculative vibes as Crowy n Memms light up and dive deep into The X-Files Season 2, Episode 14. This week, we’re trying something new—focusing on just one episode to see how the vibes flow. Does it make us more focused? Less distracted? Yeah, probably not.

Join us as we unpack [key moments from the episode], rate it out of 100 Scullys, and get lost in the weirdness of it all. Plus, if you love our completely off-topic tangents, this week’s "Scraps" episode is stacked.

Hit us up at thehighfilespodcast@gmail.com and let us know what you think of the new format!

We’re back, folks! After taking a well-deserved break for Christmas and New Year’s, Crowy n Memms return to the mic to wish you all a Happy New Year! We hope your holiday season was filled with love, relaxation, and just enough conspiracy theories to keep things interesting.

Now, let’s talk about two of the most baffling episodes of The X-Files we’ve tackled so far. This week, we dive into Episodes 12 and 13 of Season 2, where confusion reigns supreme. Neither of these episodes exactly blew our minds (in a good way), and to be honest, they were a tough sit. But, as always, they sparked some intriguing discussions between us, so it wasn’t a total loss.

Expect plenty of eye-rolling at Mulder’s theories, head-scratching moments as we tried to figure out what was even going on, and, of course, our thoughts on what these episodes might have been trying to say. Spoiler alert: they didn’t say it well.

For those of you craving the real chaos, check out this week’s Scraps, where we go off on all the tangents we couldn’t fit into the main show. As always, it’s like hanging with us during a smoke break – random, hilarious, and occasionally insightful.

Missed us over the holidays? Don’t be shy – drop us a line at thehighfilespodcast@gmail.com and let us know your thoughts, favorite episodes, or what random nonsense you want to hear us cover next. We’re so excited to be back, and we’ve got plenty more X-Files (and tangents) to dive into in 2025!

The High Files Podcast – Episode 14 Recap

Get ready for some serious investigative and speculative vibes as Crowy n Memms light up and dive deep into Episodes 10 and 11 of The X-Files Season 2.
