Dude, What's My Name? The Misadventures of Openers, Nicknames, and Unique Rabbits

  • Summary

  • In this hilarious episode of Misadventures with Cowboy and Kiki, the dynamic duo kicks off the show with their signature randomness, joking about doing an entire episode of "openers" followed by an episode of "closers." They stumble into a conversation about unique names, with Kiki poking fun at Cowboy's cluelessness, all while Cowboy attempts to crack a classic sixth-grade joke about catching a unique rabbit.

    They reminisce about childhoods filled with name-related mischief, particularly the struggle of having names that spark unwanted attention. Cowboy’s name, which is as common as "dude," leads to a nostalgic tale of being confused by a stranger who dramatically yelled “Dude!” at him on the streets of Austin—only to ask for a quarter in the end. As the conversation progresses, Kiki shares her own struggle with wanting to simplify her name as a child but later growing to embrace its uniqueness. The pair bond over the quirks of their names, leading to a memorable story about Cowboy’s encounter with another “Dude” at a conference.

    The excitement of meeting a name twin is quickly dashed when Cowboy smugly asks, “But is that your real name?”—only to learn that “Dude” was just a nickname, and the man's actual name was Delmar. This leads to a hilarious exploration of how certain names, like Richard to Dick, can lead to nicknames, but there is no clear origin for “Dude”—except for maybe the rare "Deuteronomy." By the end of the episode, Cowboy and Kiki are in full comedic flow, with Kiki riffing on Cowboy’s coffee-fueled hyperactivity and questioning whether he’s secretly indulging in some extra "herbal supplements." The episode wraps up with an open question to the audience: “Is there really a name that shortens to Dude?” The chaotic energy, random tangents, and non-stop banter make this episode an absolute comedic ride, showcasing Cowboy and Kiki’s unmatched chemistry and ability to turn the simplest topics into laugh-out-loud moments.
