This is Joker This week on the podcast Brian and Johnny review the new DC Comics/Warner Bros. film Joker, directed by Todd Phillips and starring Joaquin Phoenix. There is also talk of IT: Chapter 2, and Brian’s recent and upcoming travels. Joker (2019) Summary 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 known as The Joker.
