Julie Season 1 Episode 15

In this episode, Jarad is depressed by his lot in the late stage capitalistic hellscape we all live in, so Julie tries to cheer him up with tales of gruesome death and inescapable fate. The hosts discuss how well the Netflix series, The Fall of the House of Usher, handles Poe's themes, and whether one can escape fate. We also learn why having cats and air mattresses at the same time is not especially ideal.

Come for the scintillating discussion of cruel destiny; stay for Jarad's rumination on the glories of his hair.

This series is based on The Fall of the House of Usher by Netflix and contains spoilers.

Meet us here at Perdition City Station every week for another excursion into Hell.

Hosted by Julie Price Carpenter and Jarad Johnson.
