This week, Dick Buttons is digging up the past, questioning the present, and once again wondering WHO THE HELL DESIGNED THIS?!

 A TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE!
Dick kicks off the show with something a little different. While going through items uncovered at his parents’ house, forgotten treasures start bringing back all kinds of memories. Some funny. Some sentimental. Some completely unexpected. You never know what one little object can unlock from the past.

THE NEW BUFFALO BILLS STADIUM — MAKE IT MAKE SENSE!
Then it’s time to get fired up! Dick takes a look at the new Buffalo Bills stadium and, more specifically, some absolutely baffling seating decisions.

Who designed this thing?!
Did anyone actually SIT in these seats before approving them?!

Because Dick has questions... LOTS OF QUESTIONS.

 HULU’S “FURIOUS” — BINGE IT OR SKIP IT?
Dick checks out Hulu’s new series Furious and gives his take. Is it the next show you should sacrifice an entire weekend to? Or should you keep scrolling?

No spoilers — just the Buttons verdict!

AND THEN... THE VINCENZONE! 
You know how this goes.

The wine gets poured.
The conversation starts.
And then it goes absolutely EVERYWHERE.

No topic is safe. No thought is left behind. No conversational exit ramp is ever taken. It’s THE VINCENZONE, where having absolutely no plan somehow becomes the plan!

 PLUS — “WHAT’S IN THE BAG?” RETURNS! 

The new fan-favorite segment is back as Vincenzo reaches into the mysterious bag with another snack for the boys to try.

Is it sweet?
Is it salty?
Is it delicious?
Is it disgusting?
Does Dick immediately regret agreeing to this segment?

There’s only one way to find out...

🚨 BONUS EPISODE ALERT! 🚨

Technical difficulties? Please... you think that's going to stop Dick Buttons? Not a chance.

While The Vincenzone takes a one-week break, the good news is the audio nightmare has finally been solved—and even better, the fix isn't going to cost an arm and a leg! Crisis averted... now it's time to get back to what really matters.

And what follows is one of the most brutally honest episodes of Season 6 yet.

Dick breaks one of his own cardinal rules and confesses something he never thought he'd publicly admit—he's suffering from a serious case of Trump Derangement Syndrome, and the rant that follows is guaranteed to get people talking.

Then it's time for another one of Dick's unfiltered television reviews as he takes aim at Netflix's new series "HAWK" starring Will Ferrell. Does it soar... or crash and burn? You'll find out.

Next comes a subject that's sure to divide rock fans everywhere. Dick turns his sights on Bon Jovi's surprise nine-show residency at Madison Square Garden, asking the uncomfortable question nobody seems willing to answer: When do legends know it's time to stop? If you thought Dick was going to sugarcoat it... think again.

The mood shifts as Dick takes a deeply personal look back at old photos from 2020, when the scale tipped nearly 270 pounds. It's a candid, emotional reflection on how far he's come and why those pictures will forever serve as a reminder of where he never wants to be again.

Finally, Dick wraps things up with a heartfelt Podcast State of the Union, sharing where the show stands, where it's headed, and why the future has never looked brighter.

It may be a shorter episode than usual...

...but don't let the runtime fool you. This Bonus Episode swings hard, speaks honestly, and pulls absolutely no punches.
