Doug Budin Unleashed: Childhood Scars, Cancelled Costumes, and Bravo-Level Drama

Listen to this episode from Show Pony on Spotify. Jeff Lewis Live’s Doug Budin joins for a chaotic deep dive into childhood trauma, cancel-worthy costumes, Bravo drama, and life with Jeff Lewis. Doug Budin, the official chump of Jeff Lewis Live, joins for a completely unhinged episode filled with ADHD tangents, chaotic memories, and Bravo-grade mess. We talk about everything: Doug’s wild childhood, a violent incident in Sunday school, his first meeting with Jeff Lewis, and travel nightmares from hell (looking at you, LAX and Budapest). We expose a gay doctor’s unforgettable screw-up, fight over fragrances, and go deep into the politics of pillows—yes, both Doug’s and Craig Conover’s. Plus, Doug’s party altercations, a run-in with Tabatha Coffey, and his Halloween costumes that should’ve gotten him cancelled. Fans of Radio Andy and Jeff Lewis won’t want to miss this crossover.
