CJ Leede is in the house! (it's a haunted house and the monster is religious trauma)

Nobody's down here except the FBI's most unwanted. That's right, we are talking about one of the most beloved shows of the 90's The X-Files, and joining me today are my pals Jocelyn Codner and Anette, and we are ready to see if the truth is really out there. We're talking Home, Bad Blood, Sanguinarium, and more favorites this week.
