There’s arguably no superhero in existence that has been reimagined, redefined, or reinterpreted more than Batman.  No matter how many times he’s been rebooted, audiences are always willing to come back to Gotham City’s greatest defender.  With so much Bat content out there, there’s plenty to dissect, analyze, and of course, rank!  This podcast is dedicated to a surgical evaluation of Batman’s history, with a focus on ranking several topics in the world of Batman, among other classic Bat themes and characters. Join host Daniel Cohen, Pop Break’s former Film Editor and Resident Bat-Maven, as he brings on several guests every month to share his passion for the one and only Dark Knight.  From Adam West to Robert Pattinson, no bat stone will be left unturned.  Bottom-line: If you’re a Batman fan, this is required listening. It's time for another episode of the Batman by the…uh oh.  Wait a minute.  What’s happening?  Wha- “Winged freak.  Terrorizes.  Wait till they get a load of me.” That’s right!  Welcome to the JOKER by the Numbers Podcast!  Grab your laughing gas, hand buzzers and pencils, because everyone’s favorite clown prince of crime has taken over the feed.  You want chaos?  Today we’re bringing the CHAOS!! Last year we ranked all the actors who played Batman.  With Joker: Folie à Deux upon us, we have to do it: We’re ranking Jokers. Do we really need to sell this episode any more than that?  The Joker is arguably one of the biggest villains in all of pop culture the last few decades.  The character has two academy awards on his mantle.  Whether it’s pure goofball in the 60s with Cesar Romero, or Joaquin Phoenix’s ultra serious take in 2019’s blockbuster and divisive Joker, he always brings something to the table to discuss, and could be the biggest reason why Batman as a property has stood the test of time.  His never-ending battle with the Joker is the cornerstone of the character.  They said it best in a little movie called The Dark Knight… “I think you and I are destined to do this forever.” With a topic like this, you know we had to go BIG.  Joining Daniel on this laughing gas filled journey is podcasting director of the pop break, Alex Marcus, along with an all-star panel of alums and newcomers. Fresh off his appearance in the Definitive Batman Draft, Kris Ingersoll of the Media/Lit podcast makes his return, along with Amanda Rivas, host of the Anime x Pop podcast, and of course the flagship podcast of the pop break, the Socially Distanced Podcast.  And making their debuts on the Batman, excuse me, the Joker by the Numbers Podcast, Alex’s former co-host of the Cinema Joes Podcast, Noah Franc, and professional wrestler, Brandon Vice. The panel dive into everything Joker.  Can Daniel get through the Jared Leto segment without going on a 2016 Suicide Squad rant? (probably not).  Did the Joaquin Phoenix discussion last a long time? (probably).  And…who won the title of #1 ranked Joker?  We won’t dare spoil that for you, but let’s just say it was a nail-biter. What are you waiting for?  This is an episode where we rank Jokers.  LISTEN RIGHT NOW!
