On Fail Better, David Duchovny, who has experienced both low and high profile failures throughout his life, explores the vast world of failure - how it holds us back, propels us forward, and ultimately shapes our lives. Each week, he will chat with guests like Ben Stiller, Bette Midler, and more about how our perceived failures have actually been our biggest catalysts for growth, revelation, and even healing. Through these conversations, he hopes listeners can learn how to embrace the opportunity of failure and fail better together.
In this episode, David chats with Gillian Anderson, the Dana Scully to his Fox Mulder. The two X Files co-stars got a chance to open up about the ways they might have failed one another during that wild ride, and examine the ways they’ve grown since.
