In Episode 5 of Crazy Real with Bugge & Zogg, Jenn “Bugge” and Marissa “Zogg” welcome on Jenn’s longtime friend Kelly Shetsky for a conversation that’s equal parts heartbreaking, inspiring, and very real. Kelly shares the story of her daughter Regan, who tragically passed away at nearly four years old, and how their family turned unimaginable loss into a lasting mission through Regan’s Acts of Kindness.

Kelly walks Bugge & Zogg through the community projects that keep Regan’s memory shining—like the ornament drive that brings joy to thousands of kids each year, the annual book drive in Regan’s birth month, and the beloved “Regan’s Corner” at the Wild Animal Park. They also talk candidly about grief—how different it looks for everyone, why people can feel awkward around loss, and what it means to “grieve better busy.”

And because this is Crazy Real, the episode also takes a hilarious turn into parenting older kids—middle school chaos, teen attitudes, Snapchats, “letting it marinate,” and all the stuff nobody warns you about.

If you’ve ever wondered how to keep someone’s legacy alive—or you just need a reminder that kindness still spreads farther than you think—this episode will stick with you.
