Joker: Folie à Deux!

from It's What We Do! Podcast · host Hen & Jon

Send us a textWhat if the Joker is just a figment of Arthur's fractured mind? On "It's What We Do," we challenge assumptions with a deep dive into "Yonker 2," a film that has sparked mixed reactions and comparisons to "Morbius" and "Madam Web." With Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga leading under Todd Phillips' direction, we scrutinize the film's narrative choices, the DID plea, and Arthur's reluctant embrace of his Joker persona. The dynamic between Arthur and Harley is a fascinating puzzle, and we unravel how their shared delusion crumbles, impacting their relationship and leaving audiences in suspense.Switching gears, we channel our inner critics as we discuss the film's approach to the musical genre, questioning its commitment to musical madness. Does it deliver on the promise of a musical spectacle, or does it merely flirt with the genre? The Harley and Joker talk show sequence stands out as a highlight, and we examine the emotional power of its musical numbers. Our banter is laced with humor as we explore Harley's manipulative tendencies and her disinterest in Arthur's non-Joker identity, all while sharing personal anecdotes and musical tidbits that add a delightful twist to our critique.As we navigate through racing and entertainment, we celebrate Bob Odenkirk's upcoming action sequel and unravel the mystery of Scientology with a dash of humor. The anticipation builds with news of the Ayrton Senna Netflix miniseries and the thrilling Formula 1 season, with names like Max Verstappen and Lando Norris keeping us on the edge of our seats. We round off with exciting TV updates, including James Gunn's Green Lantern series casting, and our personal viewing lists. Join us for a fun-filled, engaging ride through movies, music, and motorsport, and don't miss our signature farewell to wrap things up.Follow the podcast everywhere!IG @itswhatwedopodX @itswhatwedopodTikTok @itswhatwedopodLike and Subscribe us on Youtube!Itswhatwedopod
