Episode Details

He claims to be just a little Ozzy… but we all know the truth.

If you’ve made it through the last 10 years without seeing an Ozzy panther or chrome tattoo, then you’ve probably been living under a rock.

Ozzy is a Venice Beach traditional tattoo legend, and he just opened a brand new shop in sunny downtown Riverside. We sit down and talk about how his punk rock mom bought him his first tattoo machine as a teenager and he’s been tattooing ever since.

We get into the love/hate relationship with tattoo conventions. They’re always a gamble… but they’re also always a good hang.

Ozzy also takes the phrase “bold will hold” to a terrifying new level when he tells the story of the time he tattooed with a 100 round liner.

From there we spiral into tattoo internet culture, including the artist blowing up for tattooing with their non-dominant hand, and why people absolutely love a good tattoo gimmick.

We also talk about tattoo artist The Raw Wendy, who was featured on My Strange Addiction for eating raw meat. Somehow this doesn’t phase Ozzy at all, because he’s currently deep into fitness, macros, and meal prep… something the Buds absolutely cannot relate to.

And because he’s a true artist, Ozzy closes out the episode with not one, not two, but THREE Tattoo Cover Up stories.

So grab your meal prep, sit down, and hang with this Los Angeles tattoo legend.
