Dr Abby Howells, PhD (whose doctoral thesis is fittingly 'Performing prison: How is life on the inside portrayed to the outside world?') joins Tim and Guy to praise Joker 2 for one reason only: "It is not as racist as prison movies typically are." Apart from this silver lining, there's a lot of critical clouds on the horizon of Folie à deux - a fact that will shock anyone who's listened to other episodes of this series. More importantly though - we get to know about Abby's portrayal as the Cowardly Lion and the history of the worst play of all time.

Get ready for a completely earnest discussion about the movie Joker: Folie à Deux cause these guys have lost it. Tim’s review of this watch? “I miss my family and I want to leave.” Guy’s feelings on critics who aren’t down at The Classic with them watching this film? Frauds. Tim pontificates on what Chris Nolan would have to say to Todd Phillips, Guy believes Todd has left breadcrumbs in the movie to show his appreciation of Always Sunny and Arrested Development and both of our boiz wonder about these inmates’ piss buckets.

We've got it all - running water in the urinal, personal agency and a 7th watch of Joker 2. Tim and Guy examine the brutal reality of the seven times at the trough. Stuffed, so completely, with Joker 2.

Monty is steadfast in his belief that he simply will not be bossed around by this movie, and breaks down (with the detail and vocabulary of a decades-long sports commentator) the back and forth of the boiz' latest fight. Guyguy also puts up a spirited defence of Steve Coogan's performance within the context of the borderline impossible acting job he had to perform. And let us not forget the brilliant Catherine Keener.

Tim meanwhile wants to dig deep into the nature of comedy (again), clowns and what the movie was trying to do with all three of those things.

Coming to you from the sleeping bags they just spent the night in, inside the comedy club they currently live in - Guy and Tim are picking apart the financial performance of Joker 2 and the incredible reaction of Todd Phillips upon release of the film. Tim tries (to limited avail) to tie the trajectory of the watches to Elisabeth Kübler-Ross’ five stages of grief. Guy poses the question: Who are the fans of this movie?

It has been three weeks, and in some ways five weeks. And in some other ways, it has simply been one day for Tim and Guy watching Joker: Folie à Deux. A damaged Lithium Ion battery pack has become a ticking potential timebomb threatening to destroy The Classic (Tim and Guy's current abode) adding beautiful background tension to this episode. The very definition of a joke is picked apart for a very long time after this 5th watch of the movie.

Guy and Tim are truly ON ONE. Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber is outted as a common plagiarist. Todd Phillips is recognised as being VERY IMPORTANT to the making of Joker 2. And also, it is Monday! Now imagine this: What if this movie was made for just one person? And what if that person was a certain Canadian physiologist who almost killed himself going on an all meat diet? There truly is a lot to consider when you’ve got a brain full of Joker: Folie à Deux.
