It's bitter, brutally cold here in New York City, and it's even worse in many other parts of the U.S. So, this episode is, if anything, more relevant than it was when it first aired. So enjoy, while I make plans for the 100th EPISODE(!) of the Matt Sager Podcast for Monday. Among other things, I plan on giving you my top new picks for what's streaming in February, on Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu and more. So take the weekend to stay inside where it's nice and warm, and catch up on all these awesome titles that landed on Netflix in January. And if you need a suggestion to get you started, you can't go wrong with The Punisher season 2 and the Fyre documentary. They're both engaging and tragic, and one of them actually happened! What those Fyre people were willing to do for water will blow your, uh, mind. While you're at it, check out Fyre Fraud on Hulu, for an interview with Billy McFarland himself!

Original episode description, from January 18, 2018:
It's freezing in New York City, and a blizzard is heading our way - which means I can't go see the movie that made it to number one on my list of most anticipated movies of 2019, Glass. And, as the reviews keep coming in and getting worse, I do not mind the wait.
Especially with so much great stuff now streaming - Punisher season 2, which also has decidedly mixed reviews but which I'm very hopeful will be lots of fun, debuted on Netflix today. Also new to Netflix is Fyre: The Greatest Party That Never Happened, which looks like a very interesting look at the disaster and the con men who organized it, although Hulu actually beat them to the punch, releasing their own documentary, Fyre Fraud, earlier this week.
Here's the trailer for Fyre on Netflix: https://youtu.be/j8lNWj5Atu0
