Beautiful Blurry Hysteria: Mascot Maulings, Skin Suits & Tentacle Bunnies | 443

Beautiful Blurry Hysteria: Mascot Maulings, Skin Suits & Tentacle Bunnies | 443

This week on Beautiful Blurry Hysteria, Kevin Crispin from the Behind Beautiful Things podcast jumps into the weirdness with us—and oh boy, did the headlines deliver!

First up: The Seattle Kraken’s mascot, a googly-eyed sea troll named Buoy, had a brush with bear-based oblivion while filming a fishing segment. Turns out even mascots aren’t safe from nature’s "grizzly" reboot of Wild Kingdom.

Next: A widow in love—and with very specific taste in decorating—decided to memorialize her husband by having his skin removed and turning it into a wall-hanging. Nothing says romance like a dermis doily!

And finally: Tentacled rabbits—yes, tentacled—are hopping across the Midwest like an anime gone feral. Is it a mutation? A science experiment gone wrong? Or has Cthulhu finally discovered 4-H?

It’s bears, bizarre love, and bunnies that go bump in the lab on this week’s wild ride through the weird.
