    What a Creep
    Season 25, Episode 6
    The character actor edition: Stephen Collins & Jeffrey Jones

    Stephen Collins is known for his role in the wholesome WB drama series “7th Heaven” from 1996 to 2007. Jeffrey Jones is probably best known for the cartoonish principal in “Ferris Bueller's Day Off” or the clueless dad in “Beetlejuice.”
    These character actors have probably appeared in some of your favorite things to watch, but they’re also creeps.
    Trigger warning: Child molestation and digital child sexual assault

    Andy Dick

    You probably know Andy Dick from the “The Ben Stiller Show” or “NewsRadio.” But he’s also famous for a very long history of harassing, groping, licking, and punching people, as well as whipping *it out in public. He has struggled with drug and alcohol abuse, but that’s no excuse for his behavior. What a creep.

    Baseball Creepy History: The Chicago Cubs Eddie Waitkus Tragedy & NON-Creep Hunter Pence (SF Giants)
    May 3 2024
    What a Creep
    Season 24, Episode 10
    The True Crime Story Behind “The Natural”

    The Eddie Waitkus shooting is a notable event in baseball history. It occurred in 1949 when the popular first baseman (and WW2 hero) for the Philadelphia Phillies was shot by an obsessed fan named Ruth Steinhagen. The incident was a shocking reminder of the dangers of celebrity obsession. Also, it inspired Bernard Malamud's novel The Natural, which was later adapted into a popular film starring Robert Redford (who played a 19-year-old when he was 47 at the time!)

    Trigger Warnings: Gun violence, stalking, alcoholism, and mental health treatments

    Karl Lagerfeld (Fashionably Creepy Fashionista) & NON-Creep Carol Burnett
    Apr 26 2024
    What a Creep
    Season 24, Episode 9
    Karl Lagerfeld

    Karl Lagerfeld was a fashion designer best known for heading Chanel for over 30 years. He was one of the first designers to channel their fashion leadership into becoming a public figure. He developed this image as “the Kaiser,” a too-cool snob with dark sunglasses, fingerless gloves, and a ponytail that got him almost as much attention as his designs for Chanel.
    Sure, he was a fashion icon, but our man Karl was also fatphobic, racist, and misogynistic. What a creep.
