Ep 14. The X Files ft. Neoshia Roemer
Our insightful guest Neoshia leads the conversation on the X Files. We get into the origins of the term 'shipping,' how TV got more gory and technical during its 'golden age' and how the X Files set the bar for the enduringly popular genre of crime procedurals. Tangents include...
- the ability of television to start conversations about social, political and even existential realities
- the haven of 'blerd' (black nerd) spaces
- the danger of rom-coms teaching young women their happiness is predicated on finding love, especially if they used to treat you poorly (ew!)
