You know him as Art the Clown—but behind the silence, the prosthetics, and the gallons of blood is a performer with heart, humor, and a hell of a story. In this episode, David Howard Thornton joins Saraya to reveal how childhood mimicry turned into a voice acting superpower, how grief rerouted his path from teacher to cult horror icon, and how a $35,000 indie film changed his life forever. From haunted house shoots in sub-zero temperatures to getting sexualized at fan cons, this conversation is hilarious, heartfelt, and so Rulebreakers.
