It’s Cort’s birthday this week (happy birthday, Cort!). So, she chose Mike Flanagan’s “Fall of the House of Usher” (Netflix) for our homework. Yay!!

Cort is a huge Edgar Allen Poe fan, so she nerded out big time on this limited series. Listen in to catch a few Easter eggs, find out who we thought “deserved” what they got, who didn’t, whom we “proud of,” and whom we can’t wait to get their comeuppance in the real world!

We also chat about River Phoenix since October 31st was his 30th deathiversary.

And we pay homage to Matthew Perry who passed away on October 28th at the too-young age of 54.

Next week: We celebrate Susan’s bday with her choices of: “Grey Gardens” (max/TCM) and “The Night of the Hunter” (tubi).
