S7 E18: "Bland X (Because We Couldn't Make a Good Saw X Joke)"

Scully Nation: An X Files Rewatch Podcast

This week we are just confirming for everyone that smoking is indeed bad for you while we discuss “Brand X”! We’re talking the FBI inflicting protective custody on people, how ridiculous it is to get mad at the Bigfoot Division for coming up with theories about Bigfoot, theorize that the Cigarette Smoking Man must be at fault for this somehow, and get very excited about Mr. Jigsaw himself showing up on the scene. We’re cracking our fingers and getting our Saw jokes ready. We get really disgusted at all the bugs in people’s lungs (NOT where bugs are supposed to be), Skinner starts chewing on wheat and becomes our audience surrogate, discover that Scully can stop you from smoking with just A Look and how anti-smoking campaigns should really make use of that, and we do just spend 5 minutes looking at Tobin Bell’s IMDB page. Also: we have a heated debate on whether Skinner is good at laying down the law. The most contentious forum discussion in existence, locked after 256 pages of heated debate.
NOTE: Please submit Season 7 questions/comments by April 21st! Don't listen to the date we say in the episode, our recording schedule moved back by a week.
