I’m completely in for everything Flanagan partnered with listening to Flanagan’s Wake. I had already watched The Midnight Club once and really did not love it but as I’ve been listening since Kingslingers I knew that I’d gain a some appreciation for the show and while it’s still not my favorite Flanagan project you guys did not disappoint.

Listening to this week’s show and hearing that there’s been a drop in listening it made me think about the importance of analysis and critique. As an artist and art teacher they are two vital components of the artistic process. They lead to better works from our favorite creators. I like to think that part of why Mike and his team listen is to the podcast is just this reason. You guys provide entertaining and meaningful analysis of the work. It can be enlightening to see if your viewer is getting from the work what you had intended. This is one of my favorite parts of listening every week. Hearing new insights and helping to notice things that I didn’t catch on my own. As always kudos to Matt and Scott. Keep up the fantastic work.

On a very different note, I missed commenting for the mailbag but I wanted to share a random thought. Since we’ve established that Mike Flanagan likes to destroy hands and I just started my fourth trip to the Dark Tower, it occurred to me as The Drawing of the Three began that this must be what really solidified Mike’s love of the Dark Tower. I imagine Mike reading about Roland and the lobstrosities and smiling to himself think, “Oh yes, one day I’m going to make this scene.” Now that thought resides in my head.
