This is warming the cockles of my cold, cold heart.
Silicon Valley star (and host of the X-Files Files podcast!) Kumail Nanjiani took to Twitter this weekend to reveal that he’s living the X-Files fan dream:
I got to be in an ep of my favorite show (X Files) written & directed by my favorite writer (Darin Morgan.) And this script is wonderful.

I had been trying to stay calm & approach it like any other job. And then I freaked out soon as I saw this. pic.twitter.com/reBKXIlXQ4

Nanjiani and Joel McHale are two of the first non-returning cast members to be announced for the series.
What do you think, gang? Are you familiar with Nanjiani’s X-Files podcast? Are you riddled with envy?
