b'Jim and I went to see the Joker tonight, and it was intense, challenging, but also beautiful and engrossing look at mental illness and the sicknesses at the heart of our society.\\xa0Director Todd Phillips gives us a plausible, believable, and terrifying Joker to inhabit a world that is set in a hazy late 70s period but the political landscape is very 21st century.\\xa0We can see multiple ways this movie could be considered "dangerous", but we feel the most dangerous thing about it could be people ignoring the many cautionary tales it packs into it\'s run-time.\\nWe\'ll be back in two weeks to discuss what we imagine to be a bit lighter fare; Zombieland: Double Tap!\\nThis podcast is an abridged version of the full, spoiler-filled discussion available only to our club members.\\xa0Check out our Club Bald Move page to find out how you can gain access to ALL of our premium content!\\xa0If you\'re already a member, please login to get the goodness flowing...\\nJoin Club Bald Move for premium content and website features\\nJoin the Club!\\nLeave Us A Review on Apple Podcasts\\nJoin the discussion:\\xa0Email\\xa0|\\xa0Forums\\xa0|\\xa0Facebook\\xa0|\\xa0Twitter\\nLearn more about your ad choices.
