Once again, Joker is the talk of the town. To mark the recent release of Joker: Folie à Deux, Nick and Bella are exploring the history of the iconic character and the tremendous actors who have donned the face paint.

• We open with the performance that changed the game. Jack Nicholson steals the show in Tim Burton's Batman with his unforgettable take on Joker.

• Next, we discuss Heath Ledger's Academy Award-winning performance in Christopher Nolan's modern classic, The Dark Knight.

• Finally, we analyze the polarizing origin story in Joaquin Phoenix's powerful take on the character in Joker.

There are plenty of other tidbits, history, and trivia on the character of Joker and his relationship with the caped crusader. Give this one a listen, and let us know your favorite Joker.
