EWB 162: JOKER
Happy New Year Everyone! Ralph Schmidt of the excellent band Ultha, joins us for a trans-Atlantic discussion of one of our mutually favorite movies of the past year, the Todd Phillip's directed Joker starring Joaquin Phoenix and Robert De Niro. Despite the "woke" crowd denouncement of the film, claiming that it is "just another angry White Man" movie, Joker pulled in over a billion dollars at the box office last year. We touch on some important social topics such as the increasing move toward a "new conservatism" and cancel culture. Dig in!
