Show notes

Part 3 with Clancy Sinnamon (CC Donut), back to his first overseas trip at 19. First arvo in New York, overwhelmed in Times Square, an old lady offers him and his then missus a free personality test. He reckons it might teach him something about himself, follows her down a back alley and straight into a big Scientology building. They sit him at a little desk with a divider and a hundred multiple choice questions, so he does what he always did at school: ACDC all the way down the page and hands it in.

They pull him out to a back room, deeper into the building, where a bloke in a lab coat tells him his results show he's very unstable and unhappy. Clancy was having the time of his life, but took the path of least resistance, agreed he was very sad, and walked out with a Scientology book. The missus, who answered properly, came out stable and walked free. Next day the same lady tried to hand him a pamphlet in Times Square.

Same trip, he emptied his coins into a homeless man's cup in Washington, realised his squashed Disneyland souvenir coin went in too, and got caught reaching back into the cup. In France he learned to say "parlez vous français" thinking it meant "I don't speak French". In Dubai with the cricket he kept asking for ham and pineapple pizza.

Then the origin of CC Donut: his mum called him CC, and a mate at cricket started calling him "cinnamon donut". He talks about where the skits come from, including the viral 120 slump video shot at a mate's dad's concrete batching plant out of Mitchell, where Clancy jumped under a truck pouring straight water and had to be hosed down, and the livestock agent skits inspired by his brother that stirred a few people up.
