Episode 32: Gray-skinned Space Brothers and James Van Der Beek's Vanderbutt

Send us a text

Cancer, werewolves, and aliens collide in this wild exploration of the unusual and unexplained. We begin with James Van Der Beek's heartbreaking revelation about his battle with stage three colorectal cancer. The Dawson's Creek star opened up about how his diagnosis stripped away his identity as a husband, father, and provider – leaving him questioning his purpose and worth. Through this struggle, Van Der Beek discovered something profound about self-love and divine connection that transcends his roles in life.

From one rare human experience to another, we meet the extraordinary 18-year-old Indian teenager who just claimed the Guinness World Record for the world's hairiest male face. With 95% of his face covered in hair due to the ultra-rare "werewolf syndrome," this young man shows remarkable confidence, declaring "I like who I am and I don't want to change my look" despite facing significant challenges and occasional cruelty from strangers.

The conversation then launches into the cosmos as we navigate the fascinating taxonomy of alleged alien species – from the classic "Greys" with their almond-shaped eyes to the Nordic "Space Brothers" and the controversial reptilian theories popularized by David Icke. We examine how attitudes toward UFO sightings have evolved; where witnesses once faced ridicule and ruined lives, there's now growing mainstream acceptance of unexplained aerial phenomena.

We ponder the philosophical implications of human space exploration – are we not aliens ourselves when we travel to other planets? The search for extraterrestrial life continues through legitimate scientific fields like astrobiology and exobiology, focusing particularly on environments containing water as the fundamental building block for life as we understand it.

Whether you're a UFO enthusiast, fascinated by rare medical conditions, or simply enjoy thought-provoking conversations that challenge conventional perspectives, this episode delivers with humor, heart, and the occasional uncomfortable truth. Join us as we celebrate the weird and wonderful aspects of human existence – both on this planet and potentially beyond.

Episode 101: Happy Birthday Ben!

It’s Ben Kissel’s birthday, and the OK Bud crew just got back from a BBQ-fueled weekend in the strange and sandy outpost of Pioneertown, California. After digesting enough tri-tip to sedate a bull, we dive headfirst into the kind of stories that haunt your group chat: a premeditated murder with major “they planned this in a Chili’s parking lot” energy, the shocking truth behind the infamous McDonald’s coffee burn case (she wasn’t being dramatic — she was being cooked), and a chilling update on the man who brought a 20-pound chain into an MRI machine and learned the hard way about physics.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
