My Friend Greg Episode 19 - Studio 405 Takeover & Thundertats Preview
In this episode we packed up the whole set up and took My Friend Greg on the road to Studio 405 In OKC to link up with our people, talk shop, and officially kick off the hype for Thundertats Expo in OKC (July 17-19).
This ones got everything - introductions to the crew, behind-the-scenes of the tattoo world, and deep dive into what it's really like being tattooers across different eras. We break down how the industry has evolved, the wild shift in tattoo technology, and how we all ended up developing our own styles.
Of course, it wouldn't be us without some chaos - random tangents, bidet debates (yeah it went there), apprenticeship stories, and the kind of unfiltered conversations you only get when tattooers sit down with mics.
If you're heading to Thundertats or just want a raw look into tattoo life past and present, this episode sets the tone.
Pull up, press play, and welcome Studio 405.

My Friend Greg Episode 18 - Señor Stupidface and the Final Goodbye...For Now
Episode 18 gets a little emotional...But don't worry, we still keep it unhinged. We're officially saying goodbye to Stupidface as he packs up and heads to Montana for his next chapter. Before he disappears into the mountains (or gets eaten by a bear), we bring in a special guest - his dad Kenny, now forever known as Señor Stupidface. We get into Kenny's daily routines, life wisdom, and what its like raising...well, Stupidface. Then things take a hard left turn into one of the most important debates of our time: In and Out vs Smashburgers. We also breakdown what Montana life is really like - especially if you're coming from California - and whether Stupidface is actually ready for it or about to be humbled real quick. All jokes aside, we wish him the best on his new journey (even if we fully expect chaos). It's laughs, roasting, questionable advice, and a proper send-off for one of the shows favorites.

After a long break, we're finally back in the studio and catching up on everything that's been going down. From chaos at the shop to prepping for conventions, it's been anything but quiet.
We also get into the bittersweet side of things as we get ready to say goodbye to Stupidface before his big move to Montana - pour one out for the homie.
Greg's on the rebound and feeling better (miracles do happen), and we talk about getting life back on track, daily routines, and "allegedly" staying consistent with podcast moving forward.
Same energy, same nonsense...just slightly more organized (maybe).

My Friend Greg Episode 6 - Stupid Face Enters the Chat (and Still No Arrest Record)
In this episode, we welcome Stupid Face - formerly know as Art by Jdog, currently know as a disappointment to at least three art teachers and one confused probation officer (just kidding, he's never seen the inside of a cop car). We unpack his crime-free existence, which somehow feels like a bigger red flag than the actual felony. We discuss his artistic "evolution" which is just a fancy way of saying he gave up and changed his Instagram handle. Also featuring: zero edge, mild opinions, and the safest rebellion you'll ever hear. This is the episode that proves you can be a tattoo artist, a grown adult, and still get ID'd at the movies.
