#093: The People’s Joker with Dwight Hurst

For our ninety-third episode, we’re joined by friend of the show Dwight Hurst (“Broken Brain” podcast) for a discussion of the audio commentary for writer/director Vera Drew’s brilliant 2022 partially-autobiographical DC Comics satire “The People’s Joker”. Among the things discussed: the insufferable nature of Jared Leto, what Jesus has in common with Elvis, dedications to Joel Schumacher, using Cameo videos in your fictional narrative, genuine psychological analysis of the film’s themes, the greatness of “Xavier: Renegade Angel”, and so much more. Ryan’s Recommendations: “SCTV” (1976-1984), “Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman” (1976-1977), and “Wonder Showzen” (2005-2006) For 500 hours of exclusive bonus content and early releases of every episode, join our Patreon and become an Official Minder: http://www.patreon.com/onetrackmindpodcast Our network: https://www.someonesfavoriteproductions.com/network Theme Music by: Bildschirm (bildschirm.bandcamp.com).
