    The eX Files: The X-Files 3.04 Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose
    Apr 15 2026
    Welcome to The eX-Files, a Beyond Buffering podcast where hosts Jenny Owen Youngs and Kristin Russo cover The X-Files one episode at a time, spoiler free. A veritable smorgasbord of both psychics and Buffering jingles converge for one of The X-Files most beloved episodes, S3E4 "Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose." We've got Peter Boyle, questions about the meaning of life, Jenny feeling all kinds of feelings, and Kristin returning to her crystal ball (adding to the veritable smorgasbord of psychics) to find out more about Scully's NEW DOG. Producer LaToya Ferguson gives this episode a scary ranking of 1.5/5 Uranuses (hehe) Unlimited LOCATE YOUR HOSTS UPON THE INTERNET Jenny Owen Youngs | @jennyowenyoungs; ⁠⁠⁠⁠jennyowenyoungs.com⁠⁠⁠⁠ Kristin Russo | @kristinnoeline; ⁠⁠⁠⁠kristinnoeline.com⁠⁠⁠⁠ Looking for Buffy? ⁠⁠⁠bufferingcast.com/listen⁠⁠⁠ Find us at @bufferingcast on socials SLAYERS, EVERY ONE OF US | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠bufferingcast.com/book⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ MUSIC | ⁠⁠⁠bufferingcast.com/music⁠⁠⁠⁠ PATREON | ⁠⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/bufferingcast⁠⁠⁠⁠ MERCH | ⁠⁠⁠⁠bufferingcast.com/shop⁠⁠⁠⁠ PODCAST SCHEDULE | ⁠⁠⁠⁠bufferingcast.com/jennycalendar⁠⁠⁠⁠ Produced by: Kristin Russo, Jenny Owen Youngs, and LaToya Ferguson Edited by: Mak Kellerman Logo: Devan Power We acknowledge that we and our team are occupying unceded and stolen lands and territories.
