From the court entertainers dancing for Egyptian Pharaoh Neferkere 4,000 years ago, to the hot clown girl you saw on Twitter yesterday, the role of "professional fool" has been around for a long time with many variations. If you've ever wondered who the first ever clown was, the romantic tensions between a jester and their king, or why there's a whole subset of Christianity devoted to acting like a total weirdo, then step into my circus tent while I spend roughly 30 minutes telling you about all of those things and more!

S1E4 - Rodeo Clowns

This episode has everything. Cowboys. Bulls. An ancient civilization. A Disco man. A short king. A series of truly outstanding names like Jasbo, Skipper, and Dusty. And most of all, my heart. The subject of the ever-underappreciated rodeo clown has always been a favorite of mine, and if my proselytization is successful, it will be one of yours too. sYeehonk, cowpokes.

S1E3 - Sacred Clowns and Holy Fools

I didn't plan to make this episode- this episode revealed itself to me as I researched, peeking behind other more prominent figures like the royal jester and circus clown and just begging me to spend dozens of hours reading about it. I can't promise that this episode will open your third eye and grant you unequivocable insight to the universe and the role you play within it. But I also can't promise that it won't.

S1E2 - Commedia Dell'arte

Have you ever wondered, "Wow, the Joker is so cool. I wonder if he owes his existence to some several hundred year old style of Italian improvisational play?". Well if you have ever pondered that highly specific sentence, then do I have the episode for you! I read dozens of highly pretentious academic literature so you don't have to in order to answer that question. Jump in and I'll tell you all about the ancestral agent of chaos and the environment that produced him as we do a little tour through the commedia dell'arte!

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
