This episode has everything: a mysterious man beheading seals along the California coast , a former clown who murdered his wife and then himself during his own sentencing , and a massive Hollywood breakup shaking the tabloids to their core .

Episode 137: I'm Sorry I Brought My Party Purse 22.09.2025

On this episode of OK Bud, we bounce between the hopeful, the absurd, and the downright horrifying. There’s the runaway cow Mootilda , who dodged the slaughterhouse and found supporters raising money for her sanctuary. A Baton Rouge teacher got busted with cocaine after a drug dog sweep, insisting it wasn’t hers. And the darkest of the bunch: a man who kept four vulnerable adults trapped in his ba...

Friday’s episode covers a little bit of everything: first, we get updates on D4VD-- and realize Kyle actually does know one of his songs — thanks to endless TikTok memes. Then the Buds wrestle with a surprisingly heavy debate: the morality of leaving shopping carts outside the “cart womb” , and what it says about the soul of society. Finally, we discuss the man arrested for making what he claimed...

Episode 135: The UK Scandal Nobody Asked For 18.09.2025

Thursday’s episode starts with the scandal that somehow rocked no one: a rock-skipping controversy in the UK that left Jerii bored beyond words.

And finally, we end at Universal’s Epic Universe in Orlando , where a guest has di...

Episode 134: Watch Ads or Wipe with Your Hand 17.09.2025

Wednesday’s episode begins with the grim reveal of the identity of the body found in d4vd’s Tesla , closing one of LA’s eeriest mysteries.

We wrap on a lighter note with a health update on the beloved Dolly Parton , whose spark may di...

Episode 133: Big News But We Can't Tell You 16.09.2025

Tuesday’s episode kicks off with the shocking update about the body found in D4VD’s car in Los Angeles, a case that’s spiraling from strange to sinister.

Episode 132: Grandma’s Got a Body Count 15.09.2025

Monday’s OK Bud is a rollercoaster of sweet, sad, and slightly horrifying. We start with Costco’s new 4-pound pumpkin pie , a dessert so massive it might actually unite the world . Then we dive into the grim tale of an elderly woman with dementia who killed another resident in a nursing home , before Kyle bravely admits what he used to think “breast cancer” meant as a kid (spoiler: he was wildly o...

Episode 131: Everyone Needs a Nap 12.09.2025

Today the Buds lean hard into escapism , because reality needs a break. We start with a Florida man arrested for urinating in a surf shop like he’s auditioning for chaos, then celebrate Rebecca Black , who shared that sex with women literally saved her life and sparked her rebirth. Finally, we say a bittersweet goodbye to Ghost, the beloved octopus at the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach, now...

Episode 130: Life on Mars, Death at Petco 11.09.2025

Today’s episode goes from disturbingly furry to cosmically curious. We cover the horrifying story of a felon who dressed as a puppy at a pet store and strangled a teenager to death , then blow Kyle’s mind with the truth that sand is mostly pulverized rock and ancient fish poop . We wrap on breaking news that there may actually be signs of life on Mars — proving our planet isn’t the only one with p...

Episode 129: Grumpy Got Stabby 09.09.2025

Today on OK Bud, we check in on the Coldplay couple , who are now navigating divorces yet one of the people cheated on sets the record straight.

Se...

Episode 128: From Flaming Lips to Explosive Licks 08.09.2025

The Buds start by sharing their weekend seeing The Flaming Lips and Modest Mouse , before diving into darker headlines. In Peru, a journalist’s dog saved his life by slobbering out the wick of a stick of TNT hurled into his yard by attackers. Then we look at the trial of Sara Boone , the woman who filmed her boyfriend’s slow death inside a suitcase, and finish with chilling new findings in the Gil...

Episode 127: Ben Kissel vs The Meat Monopoly 04.09.2025

Today’s OK Bud starts with chaos: Kyle, Kayden, and Ben were literally rushed out of a guns-drawn police/criminal stand-off the day before, and yes, they lived to tell the tale. From there, we catch up with the latest on Raja Jackson and Syko Stu , before Ben does the unthinkable — he convinces Jerii and Kyle to turn against Boar’s Head . Why? Because the so-called king of deli meats is quietly pa...

Episode 126: You Think It's Funny But It Taint 02.09.2025

Finally, we close on the chilling story of a female TikToker murdered alongside her family , a tragi...

Burning Man brought both life and death this week, with one baby born and one murder committed in the desert festival chaos.

And to round things out, police arrested a man caught masturbating in his...

Episode 124: Gangnam Style, Xanax Pile 29.08.2025

Today’s headlines take us from Seoul to the swamps to suburbia. First, Psy lands in hot water after being linked to street Xanax , a scandal amplified by Korea’s unforgiving culture of shame.

Finally, the chilling case of a husband who murdered his wife by lacing...

Episode 123: Return of the Graveyard Gimps 28.08.2025

Tonight’s nightmares: in the UK, gimps in rubber suits are crawling out of the shadows of parks and graveyards , because apparently Jason Voorhees needed kinkier competition. Science meanwhile introduces us to a brand-new spiky dinosaur , proving evolution has always been into BDSM. And finally, the Bermuda Triangle mystery has been “solved” — which is just science-speak for “it was never aliens,...

Episode 122: Tails Is Too Young for This 26.08.2025

Today’s episode is a mess of the absurd and the alarming. We dig into the problematic age gap between Sonic and Tails , and why Sega lore might be weirder than anyone asked for. Then it’s the unsettling reality of AI chatbots telling kids how to “self-delete” —a terrifying glimpse at how tech is running off the rails. And finally, like clockwork, the Burbank Butt Sniffer has returned, proving some...

Episode 121: The Longest Yard (of Rubber) 25.08.2025

Episode 120: You Gotta Be Shrekking Me 22.08.2025

Today on OK Bud, the infamous Menendez brothers are denied bail, keeping them behind bars decades after their notorious case.

Dark headlines to send us straight into the weekend. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and Calif...

Episode 119: When Mental Health Goes Public 22.08.2025

Today’s OK Bud is heavy: we cover the devastating story of a New Hampshire mom who killed her entire family and herself after posting about “making changes” on TikTok, the shocking arrest of Lil Nas X after a very public breakdown, and the panic at Villanova University caused by an active shooter report that turned out to be nothing more than a cruel hoax. It’s an episode about the dangers of onli...

Episode 118: The Rise of Benny Two Chainz and the Fall of Society 20.08.2025

In today’s chaos: a UK kid who acid-attacked his own dad gets eight years in prison but is now releasing rap TikToks his father wants nothing to do with, officials announce that kink might actually be the new path to better mental health, and Ben introduces his swaggering alter ego, Benny Two Chainz . It’s an episode that swings between the disturbing, the bizarre, and the hilarious—sometimes all...
