We're starting a series on "Why the hell are clowns so scary?!" And in classic PomPitchPod fashion, we're starting as close to the beginning as we can get - the archetype: The Trickster.
We also start by discussing some of the fundamental reasons we think might cause our near universal fear of clowns.
A ton of research for this episode and future clown related episodes were from the Smithsonian and Encyclopedia Britannica.
Also the podcast Myths and Legends, specifically episode 40 on the trickster tortoise of West African folklore.
And Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood - A Day at the Circus
