Monkey Revenge & Tattoo Pain: Karens, Tattooer Olympics & Why Tattoos Hurt | TATTOO BUDCAST Ep. 72

The Olympics are coming to Los Angeles in two years, and the Buds are already mentally preparing for the traffic. But instead of complaining (for once), it sparks a brilliant idea… Tattoo Olympics. We’re talking speed setups, fastest breakdowns, flash painting, endurance rounds… who’s taking gold in the tattoo world? The Buds also start cooking up plans for a Tattoo Buds Art Show + Karaoke Night, because nothing says community like art and public embarrassment. Jimmy Jam discovers “bite-size painting” as a way to survive making flash (because full sheets are emotionally taxing), while Sanae shares her latest encounter with a Karen in the wild… and yes, she leaned all the way into the conflict. From there, things go completely off the rails. We get into roller coasters, the rumored closing of Six Flags, and James introduces a new method to “raise your frequency” or, for the rest of us, just declutter your brain. Jimmy Jam also announces he released a book. A picture book. Because growth has limits. Then we introduce our newest obsession: Punch the Monkey. The new Moo Deng? NEW-DENG??  We’re invested. We also learn how tattoos create real physical and psychological responses (yes, this episode is somehow educational), and close it out with a Tattoo Cover Up story involving some very sweet, very messy revenge on a listener’s dad’s mistress. Grab a seat, grab your emotional support monkey, and enjoy another chaotic episode of the Tattoo Budcast. ----more---- 🔥 BUDCAST EXCLUSIVE 🛒 15% off tattoo supplies 🌍 http://www.kingpintattoosupply.com  🏷️ Code TATTOOBUDS15 ----more---- Like & Subscribe for new episodes every week.
