Bud Dickman is an intern in the News Department of KFI radio in Los Angeles. His best friend is the possibly late R.C.Collins. Bud wants very badly to be in either the radio or television industry as a national anchor man. Unfortunately Bud has a serious speech defect caused when he hit a tree on a motorcycle. David G. Hall, vice president for syndication at Premier radio demanded that Phil be frank with Bud one night on the show and tell him the truth that he will never make it in either industry. Bud had his big chance to make a demo tape of his abilities one evening when Phil let him interview Phil on KFI. He was doing it as a school project and it was an unmitigated disaster.
Bud was also a roving reporter during the 1999 Rose parade in Pasadena CA. His most well known broadcasting effort was when he was assigned to be Phil's producer for the on-site broadcast for the Grand Re-opening of Tomorrowland at Disneyland. It was an unmitigated disaster. He kept broadcasting during breaks which went over the air. Many callers called in to tell Phil that they were broadcasting during the breaks. It is one of the great Phil and Bud moments. ( Even if Disney didn't like it!)
He is one half of the broadcasting team of Collins and Dickman. He participated in the Spooge Demon Bowling Tournament with RC Collins and Phil Hendrie at the Schwartz Lanes in San Gabriel. He likes to be called Bud "Huge" Dickman.
Bud is also the one who saved Phil from being brainwashed by Cuban Sister Josephine by slapping him silly to bring him back to reality.
