Today's Guest: John Kenneth Muir, author of The X-Files FAQ, Horror Films of the 1970s, Horror Films FAQ.


JOHN KENNETH MUIR podcast excerpt: "Every week, 'The X-Files' brought up these mysteries. There was an episode about the Loch Ness Monster, many episodes about UFOs. They also talked about religion, about faith and, in general, what is belief. I think that really connected with people. The writing was extremely intelligent.”

Key interview moments:

• 4:10 The appeal of "The X-Files" is no mystery at all, according to FAQ author John Kenneth Muir;

• 18:30 If you really think about it, Muir says, "X-Files" creator Chris Carter's work is art;

• 39:05 On a completely different subject, Muir explains why his massive collection of sci-fi, fantasy and genre toys are available for his little boy to play with to his heart's content, rather than keeping them boxed up.
