Description

EP70 - Let's talk about toxic masculinity, gun violence, and mental illness in Joker. Because here's the real question: in a world where we can see real life mass shootings on TV and read about them in newspapers and hear about them on the radio, why do we need a movie that celebrate and sympathizes with the shooter?

Logo by Jeremy Ferris.

New episodes released the 2nd and 4th Thursday of the month.
