Episode description

Does your favorite TV show have an episode that takes it's characters into a parallel dimension where everything you thought you knew has changed? 

For Stella Cheeks, that's the Star Trek TOS episode "Mirror, Mirror" and for Erin Cline, it's the X-Files episode "The Lost Art of The Forehead Sweat". 

It's the granddaddy of all AU fics and the X-File to end all x-files! Spock's got a beard, Reggie makes it weird, and this as well rhymes in an... Alternate Universe!

About the podcast:

Erin Cline and Stella Cheeks have been friends for over a decade but have never seen each other's favorite TV show. Seeking to rectify that grievous error (seriously, they used to live together), X-Treks was born! Each week the duo choose one episode from Star Trek: The Original Series and one episode from The X-Files that fits a previously chosen cinematic theme, watch them together, and share their feelings! Alongside producer Bobby Hoffman, they discuss their first impressions, how the episodes fit into the larger fan lore, and fascinating behind-the-scenes facts.
