Last night, at midnight, I did a call-in interview with Upchuck the Clown on the Insane Clown Posse’s Internet Juggalo Radio Station, http://www.wfuckoffradio.com. Worlds been had colliding. So if you would like to hear me and some Juggalos being almost insufferably polite with each other for 20 minutes, listen:

No headphones up? I was nearly fired just now.
In Gabe’s defense – you did just click on a link for “wfuckoffradio.”
Whose logo is a poorly drawn boom box with a nutsack.
Where I work cartoon testicles are OK, it’s loud sounds from arrogant clown DJs that will get you written up.
Gabe, how you managed to not laugh and/or give a snarky comment when they were comparing the “Miracles” video’s production quality to that of a U2 video blows my mind. You’re a true professional.
In case you can’t tell, Gabe is the one who claims to be “sweet and kind and CRAZY”.
“Sure.” -Gabe
Gabe, you need to go shopping with the great-grandchildren and buy a new phone! I know it was top of the line in 1942, but the phone quality makes it awfully hard to hear sometimes. I recommend a Jitterbug.
Too many buttons for grandpa, he’s going to need a Migo.
Juggalo Island? LOST solved.
If only we could get them all to walk around with napsacks full of old dynamite.
Shhhh!!! They’re probably reading this right now!
So Is Shaggy2Dope the Smoke Monster or Jacob?
shaggy2dope is the mother
Wait. This woman’s REAL name is Gigantic? Her parents were big Pixies fans? Color me baffled. With clown paint.
That took me a minute, but I think her name is very long and it takes effort to spell correctly. Or her name is Ms. Gigantic
At the end, they mentioned the puppy video and went “Awwww”. So at least we know they have souls (unless the Juggalo is also a ginger).
Well the one thing we all agree on is that Gabe’s LOST re-caps are the best.
WFuckOff is the smooth jazz station where I live.
Oh that’s so interesting! It’s the country-western station down here.
Beck and Hannity here.
This is even better than that time Gabe got into an on-air argument with Teddy Roosevelt about reckless trust busting.
We got the Monroe Doctrine up in this biiiitttccchhh
I just want to know how I can become a member of the Juggalo bar. I want to defend truth, justice, and a Juggalo’s right to be free from THE BONE.
Pizza, Esq.
Good luck, Juggalo Necro-beastiality law has enough statutes to make your head spin.
I want to go to the Juggalo Denny’s in Ann Arbor, MI.
I am sure BAR/BRI has a prep course.
Sample Juggalo Bar Exam Questions:
1. MC LugNutz owns Blackacre. One day some Maggots cross his land without permission, attempting to retrieve a fox they were in hot pursuit of. MC LugNutz sees them from his window and thinks, “I ought to kill those fucking maggots,” but is too tired from playing XBox all night and drinking Chai Faygo to get off of his bare mattress. Just then, God smites the Maggots, who all died intestate. How will the estates of the Maggots be determined if the state they are in uses the per stirpes method of descent and distribution?
2. Grundle Slapper 69 comes upon the carcass of a polar bear in the woods and makes love to it. What causes of action does the polar bear have against Grundle Slapper 69? Against the owner of the wood? Against Psychopathic Records? Plese note any commerical paper issues that may be present.
3. Please detail the administrative process for filing a claim with the National Board of Juggalo/Maggot Relations.
4. Fucking magnets–how do they work?
BRAVA!!!
Sooo Good.
If this isn’t comment of the week i’m going to have to strangle some ninjas.
Is it too late to change my username to “GrundleSlapper69″?
I like that Gabe just more eloquently said, “We should all be so lucky to as to find something in the world that makes us so happy,” when he said that he thinks its nice that the Juggalos all have a shared interest. Diplomacygum!
I think the whole Juggalos represent humanity comment needs to be explored.
I sincerely hope this moment in culture encourages more Juggalos to start commenting on Videogum.
“This is stupid. I wouldn’t see this or I wouldn’t do that.” -Videogum commenters
Miracles is STUPID! And Upchuck’s a BITCH!
Well, I need to get back to work because it took way too much time out of my day to type that.
I think it’s both a sweet and consistent notion that ICP would want to show us their spiritual and their serial killer sides.
JUGGALO COURT? no!
“What you guys are doing is fresh” – Gabe
Decided, I am taking my laptop on my trip to California because I cannot be missing shit like THIS! And yes, my phone is also from 1942, like Gabe’s.
how come upchuck can’t refer to commenters as “monsters?” i do like the phrase “gabe and his buddies” though
I’m excited cause it’s the first time I’ve ever been called a “hipster”! I should probably start wearing more scarves and skinny jeans though.
You guys, they are talking about US on the radio!!
gabe gets it. he’s not a juggalo. but he gets it.
These jokers can’t even decide if they’re legit or not.
Sugar slam calls it a joke to be in on, and DoucheNozzle thinks it’s the most realest illest rilla dilla shizz.
Nevertheless, good interview Gabe, way to represent
They apparently have no grasp on sarcasm either, eesh.
(SIDE NOTE: LOL U2 making the Cramazing Miracles video)
Also, just as a bit of info (The podcast continued in the other tab and they’re onto religion now) one of my good friends from High School wasn’t a juggalo, but he did listen to every album and know the mythologies surrounding them. I guess there’s this big allegorical thing they tried to do over the course of the albums, involving characters that served as proxies for good/evil, depravity, redemption, there’s some juggalo jesus concept wrapped up along with a story about an infidel, I don’t know. I’d ask him, but I only bother him when my regular “Guys” are out of town.
always good to have a back up plan, especially if its a juggalo back up plan.
“The Dark Carnival.”
(Taken from Gawker, for more details, Check out: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_Carnival_(Insane_Clown_Posse) )
“See, almost all of ICP’s albums revolve around this thing called The Dark Carnival, a limbo-like zone where dead souls are sent to await judgment (the concept came to Joseph Bruce—aka Violent J—in a dream). There are six aspects of the Dark Carnival, called Joker’s Cards, that are successively revealed via ICP concept albums, and the final Joker’s Card reveals the “true nature” of the Dark Carnival.
Well, ICP turned over the last Joker’s Card (“The Wraith”) in 2004. And it turned out that, uh, the Dark Carnival… is God:
It ain’t about Violent J or Shaggy, the Butterfly or 17. When we speak of ‘Shangri-La’, what you think we mean? Truth is we follow GOD, and have always been behind him. The Carnival is GOD and may all Juggalos find him!”
So where do you go from there? Well, once you’ve revealed to your fans that the creepy gothic mythology you’ve spent 12 years developing is just, you know, Christianity with clown makeup and faygo, basically all you’re left with is praise songs. Hence:
Water, fire, air and dirt
Fucking magnets, how do they work?
And I don’t wanna talk to a scientist
Y’all motherfuckers lying, and getting me pissed.
Preach on, Shaggy 2 Dope! By the way, magnets work like this. ( http://www.howmagnetswork.com/ )”

I just want to say to all the juggalo visitors out there, keep being cramazing you guys. And we will keep enjoying. Everybody wins!
Lost commentary, attack puppies, and Juggalo jokes. That is Videogum in a nutshell.
I like how Upchuck got hit with a garbage can on one of the hayrides… now he hates those hayriding dicks! Can we find the radio program where he discusses this incident? I can’t get enough.
I wonder what other people we sometimes egg on are secret lurkers, I see you Gwyneth
Oh man. You crazy for this one, Delahaye!
I think my man-crush on Gabe has just been taken up a notch. More like Gaygo, amirite?
No juggalomo.
Man, Have we got a site for you!
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=105547626135055
Dave?
“YOU’RE the biggest ninja!”
“No YOU’RE the biggest ninja, your site is da illest!”
“Ok, we can ALL be the biggest ninja.”
Cue the death threats Gabe habitually receives from the angrier clowns out there radically receding, nice job!
Hayrides! Juggalo Island! Juggalo Court! Where is my Juggalo Doctor/Optometrist/Dentist??
“Uh dude, I don’t want to sound like a dick or nothing, uh…but it says on your chart you’re fucked up. You talk like a fag, and your shit’s all retarded.” -Idocracy/Juggalos, probably
That is truly terrifying.
Juggalos on internet radio makes about as much sense as Mummenschanz on the King Biscuit Flower Hour, okay?
“Upchuck’s a bitch.”
Gabe IS ♥Sweet♥
I don’t think Juggalos are as self-aware as they think they are.
I have always loved juggalos. They don’t occur in the wild here in Prairie Canada, but I love reading about them.
Gabe + Juggalos = swooning
It seems pretty clear to me that Upchuck should be a guest judge on The Marriage Ref. Or maybe Seinfeld should be Bone Lord at the Gathering? I don’t know, they’re basically the same person.
Me: “Mr. Matthews! Have you seen the new ICP video!?”
Mr. M: “…ICP?”
Me: “Insaaane Clown Possee! The juggalos, man! You down with the clown?”
Mr. M: “What is it with you people and the juggalos?”
Me: “What do you mean, you people?”
Mr. M: “The internet.”
So cool you guys. We’re the internet.
I have never cried so hard laughing at monster comments. As a reformed Juggalo myself (yes, that happens. its a church program) I’m pretty glad that people are finally digging deep into the two decades of hilarity. Those that love the fucking magnets joke should really check out Violent J’s little “speech” in Twiztid’s “What the Dead Like”. No seriously.
you know what, i actually don’t love his horn.
My question: Do Juggalos wear their makeup on the radio?
