Seeing as though Todd Phillips’ new film Joker has completely flown under the cultural radar, sparking next to no heated debates, the team over at The ReelGood Podcast thought it might be a good idea to bring this little discussed film to the awareness of the masses.

We may not bring anything new to the table but gee whiz if we don’t rehash the ideas of other people in an exciting, engaging and relatable manner. If you only listen to seventy Joker related podcasts this week, make sure this episode of The ReelGood Podcast is one of them!

“Forever alone in a crowd, failed comedian Arthur Fleck seeks connection as he walks the streets of Gotham City. Arthur wears two masks — the one he paints for his day job as a clown, and the guise he projects in a futile attempt to feel like he’s part of the world around him. Isolated, bullied and disregarded by society, Fleck begins a slow descent into madness as he transforms into the criminal mastermind known as the Joker.”

Have you ever been hot? As in temperature? Yes, well, this particular episode was recorded on a very hot day. Blake drank two Coronas. Derek drank a Coke Zero. John drank nothing, in a desperate but fruitless bid to prove that he is the most resilient of the three.
