The Bloom Files | The X-Files Season 5 Episodes 6 & 7: “Christmas Carol” & “Emily”

The truth is out there. In here? Who knows. But we’re opening up “The Bloom Files” to find out.

Though ’tis the season to be jolly, this week, Mike (@AMikeBloomType) and Angela Bloom (@angpalaggi) are getting solemn this holiday season. They talk about “Christmas Carol” and “Emily,” the dramatic two-part arc that sees Scully discover how important, and surprising, family can be.

Next week “The Bloom Files” will be covering Season 5, Episodes 11 & 12, “Kill Switch” & “Bad Blood.” Write in your feedback for those episodes to [email protected] or [email protected].

Married couple Mike and Angela Bloom travel to the FBI basement to crack open The X-Files. Every week, the two cover a single or group of episodes of the influential sci-fi series starring David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson, which Angela has seen many times, but Mike has never. They’ll bring their different perspectives to this first watch/rewatch of Mulder and Scully’s adventures as the podcast goes hopping through the show’s first nine seasons.
