Why do people take the role of Joker so serious? Was Heath Ledger’s death truly a random tragedy or was there something more insidious going on as people so often suspect? As it turns out the role of “The Joker” has ancient roots that involve religious and state ritual.

On this week’s episode we discuss:
-Jodie Foster
-Actor Egregores
-Method Acting
-Magickal Casting
-David Lynch
-Origins of Theater
-Jesters
-A Clockwork Orange
-The Dark Knight

In the extended show available at http://www.patreon.com/TheWholeRabbit we go even further to explore:
