The best bud dudes who invented the best bud dude-snake duo credit two unlikely sources for their show’s giddy use of gross-out humor; their mothers. Growing up, both of their mothers were nurses, and they loved to regale the future punks with stories that made them cringe and crack up.

Jim Dirschberger, Jay Howell and Andreas Trolf

Dude, what’s up? How about the most awesome best friendship of all time. The epic quests of the dude-snake duo make them worthy members of the Best Friends Hall of Fame. Except there is no Best Friends Hall of Fame. They made it up.
