Cultural References
The episode title is a play on the Detroit, Michigan based hip hop group, the Insane Clown Posse. Krusty's performance at the USO show is a parody of Bob Hope who is famously known for his USO Shows. Originally Moe was supposed to say Anny Deskanko in a reference to Ani Difranco. As in some previous episodes, there is a song featuring NRBQ. Fat Tony's real name is Marion, as was the late actor John Wayne.
In one scene, Krusty comes in with a problem and Homer asks Marge to play devil's advocate. However, instead of taking up an argument, the next scene shows Homer playing a pinball game called Devil's Advocate.
