73: THE FALL OF THE HOUSE OF USHER - Episode 1: "A Midnight Dreary"

This week on the show, The Fall of the House of Usher begins! Matt and Scott chat about episode 1 of Mike Flanagan's final Netflix show: "A Midnight Dreary." They talk about how this show feels like a culmination of all of Mike's work up until this point, the crazy amount of Poe references, and the wonderfully different tone of the show. It's gonna be a fun 8 weeks!
