Rabbis Michael Knopf and Jesse Olitzky are lifelong friends, pop culture fanboys, and lovers of all things Jewish. Join them every other week for a conversation about what’s going on in pop culture from a Jewish perspective and about Judaism through the lens of pop culture.
In this episode, Rabbis Knopf and Olitzky discuss the new Warner Bros./ DC film, “Joker,” starring Joaquin Phoenix and directed by Todd Phillips. ‘Joker’ raises serious questions about mental illness, gun violence, and social responsibility. Our hosts give a fresh Jewish take on these timely and pressing issues, which are no laughing matter.
