Episode 79: “Pogo the Clown Is Coming to Town”
Show Notes Episode 79: “Pogo the Clown Is Coming to Town”
This week Host Dave Bledsoe stops joking around and gets serious when he says the clown can stay but the Ferengi in the monkey suit has got to go!
Our show topic this weekend is the extremely unfunny situation with millions of killer clowns crawling the streets of middle America terrorizing good god fearing White folks with their crazy pie throwing and seltzer spraying frivolity!
Along the way we examine the root causes of clown fear (Hint: because they fucking creepy) and what to do when you come across a clown on the streets. (Hint: Run screaming) We look at the history of clown sightings around the world and tie the BREXIT to last year’s Northampton Clown. It’s all so clear when we think about it.
We also do a deep psychological analysis of the Satanic Panic of the 1980’s with only a minor reference to the time our Mom made us sell all our D&D Books because they made us worship the Devil! WE BOUGHT THEM ALL BACK MOM! Finally, we note any time white people are putting on masks and hoods to square OTHER WHITE PEOPLE, it is actually good thing!
Promotional consideration by Creepo the Clown, close your eyes, Creepo is there! We open our show this week with news coverage from the epicenter of the Clownpocalypse in Greenville South Carolina and close with Crispin Glover and just some FUCKED up song about clowns! Honestly what is THAT?
