Today, the Buds cover the death of rock legend Ace Frehley, Kevin Federline’s baffling decision to write a memoir, and the unlikely heroism of a Dairy Queen Blizzard that helped de-escalate a tense police standoff.
Jerii’s back just in time for Murder Monday on a Wednesday, and things get dark fast. We cover the woman who died by suicide on the Disney monorail, another who was crushed to death at a Post Malone concert, and a Brooklyn woman fatally struck by a falling solar panel. To top it off, we close with a drive-by cheeseburger attack outside a strip club.
Today, Jerii leaves the Buds for NYC until Tuesday, but not before we spiral into chaos: a man’s scrotum is slashed by his girlfriend who’s now on the run, and a drunk sheriff gets fired after his third DUI on record (and probably not his last). It’s goodbyes, groin injuries, and gross negligence — just another day on OK Bud.
Today’s episode covers everything from toxic homes to stolen booze. A mother refuses to accept home builders’ mold denials after her family falls ill and the family pet dies, the “firebug” behind the Pacific Palisades blaze is arrested in Florida; d4vd is declared “not a suspect” in Celeste Rivas’ death, but the lack of a determined manner of death suggests some serious police wordplay. And finally, Guy Fieri gets robbed of over $1 million in liquor bottles. Mold, mayhem, and a million-dollar heist… welcome to Flavor Town, crime edition.
Today’s episode goes from gruesome to grim: a Staten Island man beheads his mother’s boyfriend for telling him to “take a walk”, two prison guards are in hot water for letting an inmate burn to death in his cell, and a couple dies of heat stroke after a cocaine-fueled bathtub “celebration” for their child’s 4th birthday. It’s a chaotic cocktail of violence, neglect, and very bad decisions.
The Buds dive into a chaotic mix of story updates, the wild arrest of Mark Sanchez after a knife fight with a 70-year-old man, and the truly otherworldly investigation into whether UFOlogist Nigel Larson is the same man Jerii dated in college. Stranger things have happened!
Today, the Buds break down the chaos after d4vd’s bodyguard seemingly joked about being involved in Celeste Rivas’ murder during a livestream, Diddy gets sentenced to 4 years in prison and channels Denzel from Flight energy instead of Training Day, and science drops a bombshell: human intelligence peaks at age 60.
This week, America crowned its true champions: Chunk the bear and Bug the gloriously overweight ginger cat. Meanwhile, Taco Bell wants nothing to do with a 31-mile “Taco Bell Marathon” that forces runners to eat chalupas mid-stride, and Harvard is now teaching a class on RuPaul’s Drag Race.
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. It’s murder, mystery, and celebrity misery — just another day with the Buds.
The Buds sink their teeth into this week’s strangest stories: the virtual best bear competition sweeping the internet, the discovery of a skeleton under the porch of America’s most haunted house, and the truly haunting spectacle of Caitlyn Jenner singing TikTok on national television. Bears, bones, and ballads — this episode’s got something for everyone (and nightmares for the rest).See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
This week, the Buds take on the disturbing whispers of a possible Houston serial killer that local authorities keep brushing off, a stunt-eating man who braved the world’s smelliest food for views, and a handful of updates on stories we can’t seem to escape. From denial in Texas to noses that will never recover, this episode reeks of chaos.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
The Buds dive into the chaos as d4vd reportedly flees the home he shared with his manager after a police raid, while rumors swirl about Celeste Rivas' parents’ silence in her alleged abusive bond. From there, we spiral into the rapture and Ben drops some hard science on Kyle: toilets don’t actually flush backwards in Australia. Apocalypses, parents, pop stars, and plumbing — this one’s got it all.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
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 basement for over a decade, abusing and stealing from them until he was finally caught.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
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 were rage-bait videos, which turned out to be plain old hate crimes.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
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. From there, we dive back into darkness with updates on d4vd as investigators search the Los Angeles home he stayed in for traces of blood tied to the body found in his car. And finally, we end at Universal’s Epic Universe in Orlando, where a guest has died amid the park’s string of recent medical emergencies just months after opening.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
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. Then we spiral straight into dystopia as bathrooms begin requiring you to watch ads just to get toilet paper, because even basic bodily functions are now monetized. We wrap on a lighter note with a health update on the beloved Dolly Parton, whose spark may dim but never fadesSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
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. Then we dive into the bizarre story of young vigilantes who lured a local pedophile, beat him up, and shaved his head—only to get arrested themselves. Later, we cover the wetsuit-clad thief who swam away from a $20,000 robbery at a Disney waterfront restaurant, proving crime is getting way too creative.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
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 off). We wrap with Walmart arming employees with body cameras to combat theft, because apparently we’re living in a dystopian buddy cop reboot.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
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 in her final days.Laugh, cry, and briefly pretend the real world isn’t on fire with another OK Bud!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
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 problems.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
