From Podcast To Stage

Best known for his roles as FBI agent Fox Mulder on The X-Files and novelist Hank Moody on Californication, Duchovny has spent recent years diving into conversations on his Fail Better podcast. Launched in 2022, the series features in-depth interviews with creators like X-Files mastermind Chris Carter and actor Jaleel White, touching on art, failure and personal growth. In November 2023, Duchovny posted that full video episodes of Fail Better were now streaming on YouTube—starting with his sit-down with Carter—signaling a multimedia push that naturally grew into a live tour.

Tickets And Queue

Early bird tickets went live on June 6 when Duchovny first teased the 2025 dates in an Instagram announcement (instagram.com/p/DKcxsy6PqDN/) co-starring a series of promotional shots by @byjanejimenez. Fans can choose between general admission seats for an immersive Q&A or VIP packages, which include perks such as a pre-show meet-and-greet, signed tour posters and exclusive merch featuring artwork from his debut novel, Holy Cow. All tickets remain available via the link in his @davidduchovny bio.

In Memphis, the tour will bring its conversational format to the Landers Center, while Texas fans can catch Duchovny at Dallas’ Majestic Theatre and Houston’s House of Blues. After two nights in the Sonoran Desert—Tucson’s Rialto Theatre and Phoenix’s Crescent Ballroom—the show heads to Malibu’s beachfront Ohana Fest before concluding in Los Angeles at the El Rey Theatre.
