Each week, Jimmy Jam and Sanae tackle everything from the wildest tattoo requests they’ve ever gotten, to bizarre client stories, to deep dives into the culture of tattoos. Whether they’re discussing what happens when someone asks for a tiny dragon on their wrist (and it turns out to be the size of a toddler), or recalling the most cringe-worthy tattoo trends they’ve seen, it’s a perfect blend of humor, and real-life tattoo shop antics. The Tattoo Budcast will also be featuring guest tattoo artists and the most interesting tattoo clients, listeners will feel like they’re right there in the shop. It’s a mix of sharp wit, irreverence, and surprisingly insightful takes on tattooing and life in general. Get ready for confessions, advice, funny shop mishaps, and stories that will make you laugh out loud (while maybe questioning your next tattoo choice).

This week on the Tattoo Budcast, the Buds are flushing out the facts—literally—with tattooer, shop owner, and longtime friend Robert Graye! Rob’s a master of neo-traditional tattoos, but don’t put him in a stylistic box—he’ll bust right out of it (with perfect line weight).
We cover everything from bidets and bubonic plague to urethral E. coli (yes, you read that right). Then we get serious-ish and talk about how Rob got into tattooing, the emotional sting of constructive criticism, and the financial rollercoaster that is full-time tattooing.
Oh, and did you know some of your favorite artists have traded tattoos for things like plumbing work or tacos? We’re diving into the secret bartering economy of tattooing, and asking the big questions:
Where are we currently clocking in on the scale of self-acceptance? Are tattoos acts of self-love or just new things to pick apart in the mirror?
It’s equal parts heart, humor, and hygiene in this week’s episode—watch, laugh, and maybe even cringe with us.
