Bob and Brad take on one of the most divisive films in recent memory—Joker (2019)—starring Joaquin Phoenix in his Oscar-winning role as the Clown Prince of Crime. While the film’s technical achievements, cinematography, and score are undeniable, our hosts remain conflicted about its themes and overall message. DoesJoker present a compelling character study, or does it glorify chaos without purpose?
Then, in the second half of the show, they turn their attention to theBenromach 10-Year Single Malt Scotch, a Speyside whiskey known for its unique balance of smoke, sherry cask influence, and oak-driven complexity. How does this traditional yet distinctive dram hold up in the world of single malt Scotch?
