Season 1, Episode 3: “Episode 3”

Kevin McGahern travels around America meeting people who are redefining what it means to be family, in surprising ways. In South Carolina, Kevin rides with an anti-fascist motorcycle club called The Bastards. Their motto: “Who needs a father when you’ve got a brother?”. In San Francisco, Kevin meets Jeremy, the 23 year old ‘Jewish House Mom’ of Crypto Castle, a house of Bitcoin tech entrepreneurs who work hard and play hard in an arrangement that blurs the lines between family, friends and colleagues. Kevin travels to Ohio to attend The Gathering of the Juggalos—the weirdest festival in the world—as he meets the Juggalos, fans of the genre known as ‘clowncore,’ pioneered by the band Insane Clown Posse, known for their dedication to ‘family’, their clown makeup, and the cartoonish violence that dominates their events. Later, in Florida, Kevin visits ‘The Sausage Castle’, where a travelling band of misfits has found family in a house full of guns and glory holes.
