- We found some clowns that'll scare you it-less.
- Let's talk about that.
(playful theme music)
Good mythical morning.
- Link, do you like clowns? - No!
- It's almost like you knew
I was gonna ask you that. - No!
- Or course you don't like clowns, because when clowns
aren't busy making children feel uncomfortable
at birthday parties, they're busy making children
feel uncomfortable at other public places,
parks, subways, the Grand Canyon,
I once saw a clown make children feel uncomfortable,
and me feel uncomfortable, at the Grand Canyon.
- Get out of here dude.
- They're also occasionally starring in movies like
the remake of Stephen King's It,
you hear that's in the theaters now Link,
you gonna go see It?
- Yeah, I hear ya.
- No you're not, 'cause you're afraid of clowns.
- I'm a clownie.
- And as scary as Pennywise is, there's actually a lot
of real-world clowns that have done even creepier things,
and we're gonna find out if your knowledge of clowns
is as sound as your hatred of them.
- Great. - It's time for,
If a Clown Comes to Your Town, Will You Be Around
to Fill in the Blanks on Some Facts About Them?
Okay Link, you know how this works,
if you get four right, you win.
And if you don't get four right, you lose,
and that means you're gonna be visited
by a very special clown in Good Mythical More.
And if you do get four right, I'm gonna be visited
by that very special clown.
- Define visited.
- The clown will sit on your lap.
Or mine.
Killers gotta eat, too.
Famed clown serial killer John Wayne Gacy
used to be a manager at three different blank locations,
and loved the food so much, he eventually requested it
as his last meal.
Where did John Wayne Gacy work?
- First thing to pop into my head is Arby's,
'cause I think John Wayne Gacy liked a good meat stack.
- That's good logic.
- Arby's, it feels like a fast food thing to me,
he's a manager there, I don't know.
- Arby's - No offense Arby's.
- Not too far off Link, it's KFC.
Not Arby's, KFC, a different kind of meat stack.
- 11 herbs and spices.
- Well, 11 secret herbs and crawlspaces.
Be careful how you address a clown, 19th century
French clown Jean-Gaspard Deburau, known for carrying
a cane, once killed a young boy in the street
by hitting him on the blank with his blank
for calling him by his clown name Pierrot, he was acquitted.
- He called him by his name, and he killed him?
He wasn't currently in clown form,
and that's what made him mad?
- Are you ever not in clown form?
- And he was acquitted?
This has got wrong written all over it.
So I'll add to that by getting it wrong.
This one seems obvious, where do you hit a boy and kill him?
It's either the head or the heart.
And he's carrying a cane, so I'm gonna say,
head with his cane.
- You sure? - Yeah.
- That would be so obvious, though.
- Head with his cane.
- Well Link you're right.
We wanted to make sure that you got one.
- You know what, I wasn't gonna change it to heart.
Hit him in the heart with his thumb.
I didn't know he was gonna die, I'm a clown.
- At first, we didn't have cane in there,
and I was like, let's put cane in there,
just hopefully he'll say cane.
- I was like you said cane.
- Good job, in-- - Thanks for that
vote of confidence - In 2009, juggalos
Skippy blank and Thr0wT blank murdered a man
in Pennsylvania with a hatchet, supposedly influenced
by the Insane Clown Posse's logo Hatchetman.
Skippy blank and Thr0wT blank.
- Thr0wT? - Yeah.
- Skippy Peanut Butter and Thr0wT Grabber.
- So close, but so far away, it's Skippy Critter,
and Thr0wT Stabba, which is really not far from Grabba,
you gotta Grabba to Stabba.
- That's right. - You know.
- That's what I was thinking.
- I'll give you a half point. - Half a point.
- I'll give you a half point, but we're not rounding up.
You know what, this got me into thinking,
I thought we needed our own juggalo names,
so I present to you, Cheesy Bean and Herpy Miniweet.
- [Link] We look great.
We now have a backup career.
- You didn't take any offense to Herpy, that's good.
- I'm over it.
- You've learned to live with it.
I've learned to live with herpes.
- It's a badge of honor for me,
that I wear in stressful situations,
on my lip, just for clarification.
It's the lip herpes that I get, cold sores.
- Technically the same virus, but--
We all can tell clowns are dangerous just by looking at them
but blank clowning is ranked eighth on the list
of Most Dangerous Jobs in America.
- Most dangerous jobs in America,
what kind of clowning is that.
Prison Clowning.
Do not get into prison clowning, it doesn't end well.
It's the eighth dangerous, most dangerous career
in the world. - That's your answer?
- Yeah. - I mean, that would be,
that would be very dangerous.
- Prison clowning. - I thought you would
get this one, rodeo clowning.
- Oh, it's so obvious. - Prison clowning.
- You should have put like rope in there somewhere.
- Well, I almost put cane in there, but that didn't
- Barrel. - make sense.
- I'm gonna hide in a barrel.
- Yeah, rodeo clowning is the eighth most dangerous job,
right behind wife of a Scientologist.
A clown that terrorized the streets of Northampton, England
holding balloons and waving at people,
went viral on Facebook in 2013.
The only thing the townsfolk ever heard him say
was Pennywise's catchphrase, blank blank.
You didn't watch the original, did you?
- I actually did watch the original.
I haven't gone out to see the new out yet.
I'm intrigued by it, but I don't remember
Pennywise's catchphrase, send it to me now
through the internet and backwards in time.
Okay, I'm getting it.
A penny saved is a penny burned.
- That's more than two blanks.
It's just two words.
- Penny,
Penny wenny.
- Penny wenny. - Penny wenny.
- Okay, that's your guess. - Penny weiner.
- I think you know that you're wrong, it's beep beep.
Just beep beep.
- Oh, beep beep.
I vaguely remember that from the miniseries.
- Yeah, now you remember it.
- It was on television, they showed it
over a number of weeks, and everyone talked about it.
- Incidentally, beep beep is also Suge Knight's catchphrase.
Trial is set for 2018.
Hey, innocent until proven guilty, man,
but you can still make jokes about it.
During the 2016 clown sightings epidemic,
several news outlets reported that a clown blank
was being planned for Halloween night.
Lucky for all of us, it never happened.
- A clown blank Halloween night.
- Think about it man.
- Clown festival.
- Boy that sounds horrible. - Scary.
It kind of does, though. = It does, though.
- Come to the clown festival, all are welcome.
Clown-valanche.
- Oh, you,
you hyphenated.
No, it's a clown purge man.
- Oh, like the other movie.
- Unfortunately, a clown purge is clowns doing a purge,
not being purged themselves, so,
- That's bad. - Yeah.
Also, a clown purge is what happens
when Ronald McDonald tries to fit into a bridesmaid dress.
- Oooh, your jokes are so edgy today.
I should've gotten that one.
- Children, I don't think you have a chance now, Link.
But listen, if you get this one right,
I'll let the clown sit on my lap all through More.
- Alright, alright.
- Children at a Greenville, South Carolina
apartment complex encountered a group of clowns
who emerged from the woods and began making
strange noises and flashing blanks.
Police were never able to track the clowns down.
What are they flashing?
- Boobies?
Credentials?
What could they be flashing?
Flashing, - Is boobies credentials that,
is that one word?
- If you're gonna flash your boobies,
you need to also flash the credentials
about flashing said boobies.
Right, I have the right, I have the permit
to flash said boobies.
Flashing, lights.
Flashlights.
Christmas lights. - More specific.
- Halloween lights.
- Laser pointers man. - Laser lights.
- It was like laser. - Laser pointers.
- Yeah, I just gave you the answer.
- It was laser pointers. - I'm taking it.
Laser pointers. - No, you lost man.
