American Clown is an upcoming documentary directed by Guilford Adams and featuring John C. Reilly, David Arquette, David Howard Thornton, Bill Irwin, Steve-O, and more, delves into the misunderstood world of clowning.

This week, Guilford joins us to discuss the film and the deeper narratives it explores.

In our conversation, Guilford shares his personal journey into clowning, the inspiration behind American Clown, and why it's time to move past the horror stereotypes.

We dive into the cultural significance of clowning, the challenges faced by performers, and the evolving landscape of this art form.

🎬 American Clown premieres on Monday June 23.
