]]> Jesters yes 1 1 S1E2 - Commedia Dell'arte https://pinecast.com/guid/653f35b3-0e91-44fd-9f69-8a0133449561 Wed, 22 Nov 2023 19:09:45 -0000 00:37:55 A causal canter through the crazy cast of 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!

]]> Commedia Dell'arte yes 1 2 S1E3 - Sacred Clowns and Holy Fools https://pinecast.com/guid/163c78d8-5b9d-45bd-b525-41d0d78e1142 Wed, 22 Nov 2023 21:03:38 -0000 00:34:07 A silly swim through the seas of surprisingly saintly 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.

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.
