Starting with show #32, the OG Crew has offered to give nicknames to any of their fans who request one.

Please note that once they've given you a nickname, the nickname cannot be changed, unless you plead a lot, and they mean a lot!

Here is a mostly complete list of the nicknames currently given, along with a short blurb about the person and how they got their nickname, if possible. If your nickname is not on the list, or you've been given a nickname but would like to change your blurb, please email the Wiki Master at og.wikimaster@gmail.com.
