Summary

We don’t like to play favorites, but for this episode, we’ll make an exception. That’s right – today we’re talking about the beloved Bones Christmas episode, The Man in the Fallout Shelter. Emily and Carla share some cold goss about which Bones cast member would be most likely to spread a deadly fungus to their coworkers in real life. Then, they unpack Brennan’s emotional present-opening scene, and reveal a famous incorrect line in the episode that never got fixed. But first, Emily channels her inner Temperance Brennan to help identify some bone fragments in a friend’s back yard.
