A Carny | This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von

Комедия

Mitch Candiano is a Carny from Lawrence, MA whose family has been in the carnival business for more than 100 years. He has worked numerous roles in multiple carnivals all along the east coast.
Theo is joined by a Carny to chat about the wild life of a carnival worker. They talk about the difference between carnivals and fairs, his personal connection to freak shows (and a three-legged man), games that used to rip people off, smoking weed with one of the munchkins from the Wizard of Oz, rivalries between different groups of carnies, how he saw the business change over the years, and much more.

    Hey Mitch and Theo when I wrote my first comment I thought about adding something about the dunk the clown or as it was called the Topsfield drowned the Clown he was way over in the corner of the Midway and next probably didn't describe it as well that guy was a genius he was just so right on with his ability to heckle get an aggravated and keep them throwing balls trying to dunk the clown or "drown the Clown". I remember his his catchphrase was "high and dry". There was a rumor about him that he was a Harvard professor. The Topsfield Fair ran for 10 days and it always ended on Columbus Day some Mitchell remember some of those nights got pretty cold. Neckline would stay in that Booth all night sometimes it would be in the lower 40s and high 30s by closing time.
