X-Files Diaries

Annie and Jenn are self-described X-Philes who wear their shipper hearts on their sleeves, and their podcast is all the better for it. X-Files Diaries runs through the series with an unabashed emphasis on the Mulder-Scully relationship (MSR, as the fandom calls it), and if that sounds like your kind of thing, you have found your people. With 200 episodes and a 4.8 rating from nearly 120 listeners, this is one of the more established and well-loved X-Files podcasts out there. Annie and Jenn bring genuine enthusiasm to every discussion — they obsess, they rant, they swoon, and they do it all with the comfortable energy of two friends who have been talking about this show for years. The monthly release schedule means each episode gets proper attention and depth rather than feeling rushed. Their conversations go beyond simple recaps; they dig into character motivations, dissect the writing choices, and occasionally veer into wonderfully heated debates about which episodes deserve more love. The shipper perspective gives the whole show a distinct identity that sets it apart from more neutral or mythology-focused pods. Currently active and still going strong in 2026, X-Files Diaries is a must-listen for anyone who thinks the heart of the show was always Mulder and Scully.
