For this Halloween special, the trio of Jefferson, Josh and Tyler reunite to discuss the long-running Sci-fi/Horror/Thriller series "The X-Files". We analyze Sculder and Mully as two sides of the American archetype, the changing face of Horror from the 90s to now, the fading appeal of the X files to demographics and the explosion of populist sentiment (with the concomitant 'omnipresence' of conspiracy thinking) in America, the presence of the frontier in the American mindset with the show's unique dwelling on local monsters, the aspects of the show that could not be made today, the virtues of the Syndicate, and finally, how the X-Files is the ultimate expression of American Mythology in a time of De-mythologization. If the primary neurosis of Western Culture today is the false elevation of individual self-knowledge and assertion, it is a crucial reminder that "the Truth is out there".
