Flanagan's Wake | A Mike Flanagan Podcast

This week on the show, it's Perry's time to die as we chat about episode 2 of Mike Flanagan's The Fall of the House of Usher: "The Masque of the Red Death." We discuss young Roderick's moral war between his sister and his wife and how Perry's hedonism feels a bit too performative.In celebration of the life and art of the incredible Eliza Cowey, please purchase her artwork here: https://doofmedia.myshopify.com/collections/elizas-artwork.

Hey friends! Holy crap, we got to talk to Kate Siegel. Last week, Kate basically demanded that we sit down with her and chat, and we, of course, immediately complied. We talked all about Kate's previous Flanagan roles, her philosophy on acting, and her sitting down in the director's chair. We also asked what her favorite non-Flanagan role was, which featured me staring blankly like an idiot because I hadn't seen her answer. I feel like it goes without saying that Kate was gracious, clever, and absolutely fascinating. There were times when I just forgot to ask a question because I was just enjoying listening to her talk. Maybe we'll get good at the interview thing eventually.Thanks again to Kate Siegel for making time for our show!

Hey folks! Last week, we got the chance to sit down with the incomparable Rahul Kohli for a far-ranging chat. We talked about his time working with Mike Flanagan on Midnight Mass, Bly Manor, and upcoming projects (I tried to get him to admit that he would make an incredible Roland Deschain, but alas... no secrets revealed). I also couldn't resist getting him to chat about about his first TV role as Ravi in iZombie. We also spend a lot of time talking about video games because who doesn't want an excuse to talk about video games?Thanks so much to Rahul for taking the time to talk with us. This was such a blast.
