In our season 1 wrap up we explore the classic physical comedy gag commonly associated with circus and clowning, but this sticky slapstick act transcends circus and spread to mainstream by way of the silver screen. We discuss the differences between circus and "hollywood" pie throwing, some famous pie fights, and the integral rules in the art of pie throwing.
