Summary

On Episode 97 of Guide to the Unknown: We aren't done with clowns! 0:45 - Before we dig in, we want to let you all know that we’ve revamped our Patreon page! If you go to www.Patreon.com/gttupod, you can sign up to be one of our first NETHERWORLD WARRIORS, and gain access to EXCLUSIVE material from us! Kicking off the party, we’ve created a Patreon-specific podcast called GTTU’s Netherworld Dispatch, a spin-off of sorts, and Episode 1 is all about the movie IT: Chapter 2! We both saw it, and we have a LOT to say about it, so go become a Netherworld Warrior (starting at $4 a month, but you can change it to be whatever you want)! MORE ON THE WAY! 4:15 - The clown party begins with a quick list of some of the famous clowns that Will DIDN’T research! It’s a list full of gross weirdos like that clown from Spawn, some Rob Zombie stuff, and, of course, a Seinfeld favorite! Oh, and of course John Wayne Gacy’s Pogo the Clown. Time for some deep dives! 12:34 - Zeebo the Clown from Are You Afraid of the Dark! 18:37 - Adam the Clown from the video game Dead Rising (so cool) 24:51 - “The Clown” from the video game Dead By Daylight Oh, real quick: #JusticeForGhostface 36:10 - Ronald McDonald from the popular fast-food chain McDonald’s 40:23 - Honorable mention goes to Twisty the Clown from American Horror Story 43:08 - The capper. The winners of the “Whoa, Is This Actually Cool” award: Killer Klowns From Outer Space! Should we watch this movie? It seems kind of rad!
