Don't talk over me. 9 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:37,040 Speaker 1: We are in Alaska. I am an Anchorage, Alaska, and 10 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:40,600 Speaker 1: it's pretty damn gold. I think it's about twenty degrees 11 00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:43,640 Speaker 1: and it definitely feels like it. I've not even been 12 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:45,360 Speaker 1: outside today because I don't want to be. 13 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,880 Speaker 2: No, I know, I went outside for like one second 14 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 2: just to feel it, just to see my coffee like 15 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:53,760 Speaker 2: steam up and get off. Yeah, that's about it. 16 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:57,240 Speaker 1: We're in that time of year where it stays dark 17 00:00:57,360 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 1: for a majority of the day. Right now is what's 18 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 1: It's two pm exactly, and I think the sun goes 19 00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:09,960 Speaker 1: down in about an hour. That's crazy. So the last 20 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:12,680 Speaker 1: time I was here, it was in the summertime and 21 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:16,240 Speaker 1: it was daylight the whole time. Now I'm getting the reverse. 22 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 1: If you're not used to being in Alaska. It will 23 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 1: mess with your head and your sleep schedule big time. 24 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 1: But yeah, we're here in Alaska working on working on 25 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,800 Speaker 1: the new season of Up and Vanished.

Rightly? What the hell 59 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 1: I mean? This is called talking to death and just 60 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:14,359 Speaker 1: other people that I know or kind of know on 61 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 1: the internet. I want to meet with them and talk 62 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:21,799 Speaker 1: about their life and what we're doing. Okay, pretty much? 63 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:23,799 Speaker 1: That keeping it simple? 64 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 2: Nice? 65 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 1: So I bet this is probably the most overly asked 66 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 1: question ever, but I have to ask it. 67 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, what is. 68 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 1: It really like living in the Playboy Mansion? 69 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 3: For me, it was probably a lot opposite than what 70 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 3: people would think. I mean, I think people know now 71 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 3: because I've talked about it a lot, but I think 72 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 3: back in the day people would have thought it was 73 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 3: just super fun and I got to just party all 74 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 3: day and do whatever I wanted. But for me, it 75 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 3: was a really I was in a really controlling relationship 76 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 3: and it was very controlled and walking on eggshells all 77 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 3: the time and constantly being scared of being kicked out 78 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 3: and like having nowhere to go. So it was kind 79 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 3: of a different experience. And I think people would think, 80 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 3: especially since I was on a TV show that portrayed 81 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 3: as just being like girls having fun. 82 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 1: All day, did it start that way or did it 83 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 1: evolve into that? 84 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 2: Nothing ever starts that way. 85 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:20,239 Speaker 3: I feel like in relationships that are like emotionally abusive 86 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:23,280 Speaker 3: or controlling, otherwise people would never get into those relationships. 87 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 3: And that's something I didn't understand when I was younger, 88 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 3: Like I remember being a teenager and you'd hear stories 89 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,840 Speaker 3: about like, you know, celebrities and like so and so 90 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 3: hitting so and so, and then you would see the 91 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 3: public reacting like, well, it's her fault for going back, 92 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 3: she should have left after the first time. And you know, 93 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 3: as a kid, I would kind of like roll my 94 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,039 Speaker 3: eyes and think, oh, who would ever be in a 95 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 3: relationship like that? But it doesn't work that way, Like 96 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 3: you don't meet somebody and they hit you on the 97 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 3: first day. It's like, you get into a relationship, everything 98 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 3: seems really great, and by the time you've handed over 99 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 3: all your independence and kind of put all your eggs 100 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,039 Speaker 3: in the basket of this relationship and you've been isolated 101 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 3: from your friends and family, that's when things start to 102 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 3: get bad. 103 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 2: That's kind of how they do it. 104 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,559 Speaker 1: Was there like a defining moment where you realize something 105 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:12,160 Speaker 1: or is all this stuff mostly hindsight or how did 106 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: it eventually evolve into what was a toxic relationship? Well? 107 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 3: I was in that relationship for seven years, and obviously 108 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 3: it took me seven full years to realize it was 109 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,719 Speaker 3: toxic enough to leave, but also have my own self 110 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 3: confidence that I felt okay leaving. I mean, looking back, 111 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,480 Speaker 3: there were moments where I thought, oh, this is intense, 112 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 3: Like after I was there for a couple like three 113 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 3: or four months, like things emotionally got really deep, and 114 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 3: I well, it was just like a lot of like 115 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 3: love bombing and a lot of guilt in the relationship. 116 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,920 Speaker 3: So you're developing feelings for this person, but you're also 117 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 3: feeling guilty like this poor old man is dependent on you, 118 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:55,719 Speaker 3: which was never the case. 119 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:58,160 Speaker 2: Like he was always with all the carts in a 120 00:05:58,200 --> 00:05:59,600 Speaker 2: way one hundred percent. 121 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: Like the Hugh Hefner. 122 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 2: I think a lot of people think of him that way. 123 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 3: I remember when my book came out, I got so 124 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 3: much hate because everybody saw him as like this kindly 125 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,919 Speaker 3: old grandpa because that's the way he was portrayed on 126 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 3: the show. But that wasn't how our relationship operated at all. 127 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 1: That's interesting. Yeah, So when you say love bombing, which 128 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:20,839 Speaker 1: I've heard that phrase before and it's kind of like 129 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 1: a newer term, how would you define love bombing? 130 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 3: I feel like love bombing sometimes isn't something you can 131 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 3: see until there's some hindsight behind it, because otherwise love 132 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,280 Speaker 3: bombing just sounds like the type of relationship you'd want 133 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 3: to get in. 134 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 2: It's somebody who's like, yeah, yeah, I mean I would 135 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 2: want that. 136 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 3: Like it's somebody who's like giving you gifts and like 137 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 3: compliments and like everything's great right off the bat. But 138 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,479 Speaker 3: I think one of the telltale things if you're getting 139 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:47,480 Speaker 3: into a relationship and you think it might be problematic, 140 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 3: is somebody trying to pressure you into taking those next 141 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,600 Speaker 3: steps before it would really be healthy.

And that wasn't what I 188 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 3: was expecting from the relationship getting into it, Like I 189 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 3: knew him kind of from a distance, just from going 190 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 3: to parties up there and stuff before I got into 191 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 3: the relationship, and I very much liked him and looked 192 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 3: up to him and thought he was really charming and 193 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 3: things like that, but I didn't expect the relationship to 194 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 3: be like emotionally deep, and then when that became a 195 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 3: part of it, I very much fell into that. But 196 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 3: there was also a lot of like guilt and responsibility 197 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 3: tied up into those feelings that were like layered in there. 198 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 1: Where was your headspace at when you first moved in 199 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:22,840 Speaker 1: there and you you started this, because obviously you must 200 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:26,319 Speaker 1: have been excited at first that this was a new thing, 201 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 1: and it was I don't know, like, where were you 202 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 1: at in your mind? 203 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,440 Speaker 3: Well, the only reason I moved in was because I 204 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,720 Speaker 3: was in this situation where I had nowhere to live 205 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 3: for okay. 206 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:36,560 Speaker 2: Just a lot of things going out in my life. 207 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, So I don't think that would have been 208 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 3: a step I would have been bold enough to take 209 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,959 Speaker 3: if I kind of hadn't been desperate. And I thought, oh, well, 210 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 3: this makes sense because this is a place I go 211 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 3: that's kind of like my social life, and I know 212 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 3: these people like I should I should give this a 213 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 3: try or whatever. So I was exciting at first, but 214 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 3: there was a lot of drama with the other women 215 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 3: who lived there. As you can probably imagine. 216 00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 1: What kind of drama though. 217 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 3: It was a lot of like backbiting and just people 218 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 3: talking about you behind your back, or trying to tell 219 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:05,680 Speaker 3: him things or trying to tell people in the office 220 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:07,080 Speaker 3: things that could possibly get you. 221 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 1: Kicked out, like a competitive way or. 222 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, very competitive. 223 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:11,959 Speaker 3: Everybody wanted to be a playmate, they wanted to be 224 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 3: in the magazine, and I think kind of saw each 225 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 3: other as competition for those limited spots. 226 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 1: So after years of being there, at what point did 227 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 1: you come to this realization that this isn't right for 228 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: you and this is bad? 229 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 2: Well, it was. 230 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 3: Miserable a lot of the time, but always trying to 231 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 3: make it better. I think that's one of the factors 232 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:34,439 Speaker 3: as to like why people stay like you. Hear people 233 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 3: talk about problematic relationships, and there's always people out there 234 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 3: who are like, well, why didn't you leave earlier? And 235 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:41,319 Speaker 3: I think part of it is you're always kind of 236 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 3: like hoping things will get better or your partner will 237 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,319 Speaker 3: get better for a while and then go right back 238 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 3: to the problems that existed before, So a lot of 239 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 3: it was me trying to like make excuses. 240 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:54,359 Speaker 2: Or feeling like I had, you know, given. 241 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 3: Up a lot as far as like reputation, as far 242 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 3: as like making a choice to move into the house 243 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 3: and be part of like this unconventional relationship. So I 244 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 3: felt kind of these stakes to make it work because 245 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 3: of like all the judgment that goes along with a 246 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 3: decision like that. So there was a lot of me 247 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:14,960 Speaker 3: being miserable over the years. But finally I decided to 248 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,720 Speaker 3: leave because things were getting really really verbally abusive toward 249 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 3: the end. And this was after years of cycles of 250 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,440 Speaker 3: me being miserable and then the relationship getting better. 251 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 2: And me being miserable, but then the relationship would get 252 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 2: a little bit better. 253 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 3: So it kind of felt like there was this upward trajectory. 254 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:31,680 Speaker 3: And I think that's what's a little unique about the 255 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 3: situation I was in, is when people think about things 256 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 3: in like typical storytelling mode, they think about like me 257 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 3: moving in and it must have been really great, and 258 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,560 Speaker 3: then slowly, slowly things get worse until I finally decided 259 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:41,959 Speaker 3: to move out. 260 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:42,719 Speaker 2: But that wasn't it. 261 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 3: I moved in, things were really novel and great, for 262 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 3: a few months. Then things got really really miserable, and 263 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,319 Speaker 3: there were plenty of times I was very close to leaving, 264 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 3: but anytime I would make it clear I was close 265 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 3: to leaving, he would kind of swoop in and be 266 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 3: the hero for a moment, so then I wouldn't leave, 267 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 3: and then things would get bad again. But then when 268 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 3: the TV show started filming about halfway through my time there, 269 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 3: things really did start to get better for years, So 270 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 3: I thought, why was that, you think, Well, I mean, 271 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 3: part of it were because there were less women living there. 272 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 3: It was just me and Bridgett and Kendor and we 273 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 3: all got along pretty well, so there wasn't all the 274 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 3: drama with the other women. I kind of felt like 275 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 3: that year is over, And also like hef was really 276 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 3: into the show, and he was really into the fact 277 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 3: that we were becoming kind of like these mini celebrities 278 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 3: that were compliments to him on the show. So I 279 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 3: think he valued us more because of that, like for 280 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:32,320 Speaker 3: superficial reasons. So things were a lot better, and a 281 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 3: lot of our activities and our time spent were doing 282 00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:36,959 Speaker 3: things we wanted to do that were fun for the show, 283 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 3: rather than like going out to night clubs with him 284 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 3: or like going into the bedroom with him, Like things 285 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:45,720 Speaker 3: really changed. But then at the very very end, a 286 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,560 Speaker 3: lot of things were happening and he got really verbally abusive, 287 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 3: and I just like, I can't, I can't do that. 288 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 3: Like after seeing things get better and then going right 289 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 3: back down to where they were, I'm like, I can't 290 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 3: take this anymore. 291 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: What kind of things were happening, Well, the other girls. 292 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:00,680 Speaker 3: Were leaving, and I think there were some other things 293 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:03,080 Speaker 3: going on with the company that I wasn't aware of 294 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 3: behind the scenes because the company was a public company. 295 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 3: But then something happened later that I'm not really clear 296 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 3: on the details on because this happened right after I left, 297 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,560 Speaker 3: is some other investors bought part of the company to 298 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 3: take it private. I think he thought he was going 299 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 3: to get more control, but he ended up with less control. 300 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 3: And it was just a whole stressful situation, and I 301 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:23,440 Speaker 3: think he was taking a lot of that out on me, 302 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 3: and I didn't know what was behind it. 303 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:29,679 Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, And so eventually you what was the moment 304 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 1: that you decided that you were done or what day 305 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:33,839 Speaker 1: was that? When did you walk out of there and 306 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 1: not go back. 307 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 3: I told him it was over, and it was kind 308 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 3: of a long breakup process because he doesn't really tend 309 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:44,200 Speaker 3: to want to let go of things. So it was 310 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 3: one of those things where you kind of have to 311 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,640 Speaker 3: break up with somebody like three times. And I moved 312 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 3: into I was sharing a room with him, and I 313 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 3: moved into a room down the hall. While I was 314 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,680 Speaker 3: packing up and while I was finishing the scenes I 315 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 3: needed to do for the show before I left, because 316 00:13:58,160 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 3: it was expected that I was going to stay with 317 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,440 Speaker 3: the show, and the show was going to after Bridget 318 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 3: and Kendra left, turn into a show about like me 319 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 3: working at the studio and the other playmates that were there, 320 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:08,959 Speaker 3: and mine, Haeff's life at home and all the people 321 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:12,120 Speaker 3: were interacting with. So I finished up the scenes for 322 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 3: season five. The producers of the show were mad at 323 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:15,960 Speaker 3: me because I was leaving, and it was just it 324 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 3: was so much drama. I think back to that time 325 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:20,680 Speaker 3: period and I I remember it, but I kind of 326 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 3: don't because I feel like I was in like survival mode. 327 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure, that's that's awful. Yeah, But I mean 328 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 1: you had an amazing career after that too. I mean 329 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 1: you had your own show beyond that. Yeah, your show 330 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 1: in Vegas tell me about the upswing after that. 331 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 3: I was really lucky, but also it was a lot 332 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 3: of hard work and just knowing that I have this platform, 333 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 3: you know, from being on TV, and eyes are on me. 334 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 3: But I knew if I didn't act within the next 335 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:48,400 Speaker 3: couple of months, that would all be over with because 336 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 3: people forget really quickly. 337 00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:54,160 Speaker 1: You felt like that, oh, I capitalizing off of people 338 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 1: know who I am. I need to do something with 339 00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:58,520 Speaker 1: this for my life and my career. 340 00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:00,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, I knew I had to do it that instant 341 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 3: because back then there wasn't really any social media like 342 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 3: YouTube was in its infancy, like their Twitter had just started. 343 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:09,440 Speaker 3: So now, like if you have a TV show that 344 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 3: gets canceled, you can hang on to your audience in 345 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 3: other ways through social media. You can start your own YouTube, 346 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,000 Speaker 3: you can move it to another platform, whatever you need 347 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,520 Speaker 3: to do. But back then it wasn't like that. Like 348 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 3: if you were on TV and you got canceled or 349 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 3: were off the show for whatever reason, people would forget 350 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 3: about you the next day. So I knew I had 351 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 3: to do something like almost immediately. 352 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:32,160 Speaker 1: How many years has it been now since you left 353 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 1: the Playboy Mansion and broke up with Hugh Hefner. 354 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:38,560 Speaker 3: That was in two thousand and nine, so it's been 355 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:40,120 Speaker 3: like fourteen. 356 00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:43,240 Speaker 1: Years, okay, And so when you look back on it now, 357 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,840 Speaker 1: fourteen years later, how do you feel about it? Do 358 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 1: you regret any of it? Is it just a part 359 00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:52,640 Speaker 1: of your life? Would you change anything? Are you proud 360 00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:55,440 Speaker 1: of some parts of it? Have you thought about any 361 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 1: of that before? 362 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's kind of a funny question, like when people 363 00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 3: ask if you'd go back and change any thing. 364 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 2: I don't know how to answer that. 365 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 3: Because because there's two different ways you could look at it, Like, 366 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 3: in a way, I wouldn't change anything because I love 367 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 3: where I ended up now and I'm very happy, and 368 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 3: I don't think anybody's life is interesting without some kind 369 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 3: of struggle or mishap or something like that. But I 370 00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 3: think when you ask would you change anything, I think 371 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 3: anybody would go back in their lives and like clean 372 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 3: up certain parts or be like, well, I wouldn't make 373 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 3: that decision if I knew I could just arrive this way. 374 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 2: Like anybody would do that anything. 375 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, totally. So it's a it's a weird question. I 376 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 3: guess the short answer is no, because I like Rahm now. 377 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 1: And you were part of a doc series a couple 378 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:40,640 Speaker 1: of years ago that kind of just told the untold 379 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 1: story of living in the mansion and what that was 380 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:49,440 Speaker 1: like and all the hardships. What prompted you to to 381 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 1: do that and how did you get the courage to 382 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 1: tell that story like that? 383 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 3: Well, I already told my story through my books, so 384 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 3: at first I didn't want to do it when I 385 00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 3: was asked about it, I felt like, I've already told 386 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:00,040 Speaker 3: my story. Why do I want to go back and 387 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 3: rehash it. And it was at the point where every time, 388 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 3: not every time, I mean I only told it once 389 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:07,439 Speaker 3: through my book, but I got so much backlash for 390 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 3: it that I just didn't want to deal with the 391 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,639 Speaker 3: backlash again. I really didn't want to do it. Like 392 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:13,199 Speaker 3: I was a fan of the director's work. So I 393 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 3: was on the phone with her having these long conversations 394 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:17,280 Speaker 3: and I very much enjoyed those. And she was telling 395 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 3: me that she had found other people from different eras 396 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 3: a playboy who had stories very. 397 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:22,200 Speaker 2: Similar to mine. 398 00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 3: And I was very excited by that because I'd never 399 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:27,440 Speaker 3: heard that before, Like I knew it must be true, 400 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 3: but I'd never heard I felt like I was the 401 00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 3: only one who'd ever spoken out. 402 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 2: Everybody else was just like, oh. 403 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:36,199 Speaker 3: Playboy's great. I love him, He's so great, and you know, 404 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 3: he was great to some people. But I think a 405 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:41,359 Speaker 3: lot of it is people burying other things, or just 406 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:43,840 Speaker 3: wanting to give the public the simple answer, or just 407 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:47,639 Speaker 3: you know, not wanting to get into it. So I 408 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 3: was really interested in the project because I knew other 409 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 3: people were coming forward with their stories, and that's ultimately 410 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 3: why I agreed to do it. I didn't want to 411 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 3: just because I felt like I'd already told my story 412 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 3: in book form and I'm not comfortable with handing my 413 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,040 Speaker 3: story over to to other people who are going to 414 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 3: edit it and splice. 415 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 2: It weird, right, and. 416 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 1: Version from you, right. 417 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:07,400 Speaker 3: But I did decide to do it because I wanted 418 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,240 Speaker 3: to be supportive of the other women coming forward, because 419 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:10,640 Speaker 3: I know what it feels like to be the only 420 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:12,159 Speaker 3: one or feel like you're the only one. 421 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 1: So you said you got backlash from who and about what? 422 00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:20,159 Speaker 3: Just people in the public, Like I remember when my 423 00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,920 Speaker 3: book came out, Like I checked in on my Facebook 424 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,359 Speaker 3: page and I was getting so much hate. 425 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:27,040 Speaker 2: It was like overwhelmed me. 426 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 3: Just people saying shut the fuck up, like he made 427 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 3: you who you are, like thinking. 428 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:37,920 Speaker 1: Just just some redneck somewhere mad. 429 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:39,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. 430 00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 3: And of course anybody who's like still loyal to him 431 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:44,560 Speaker 3: or like part of the Playboy community, they were all mad. 432 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,440 Speaker 3: Or even people who were like playmates who came along 433 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 3: years after I left, were mad because in their mind, 434 00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:53,199 Speaker 3: like like say, somebody's the Playmate of the year the 435 00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 3: year my book comes out, and my book is like 436 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 3: kind of tearing Playboy down in a way, and they 437 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:00,520 Speaker 3: feel like it's tearing them down because they're the playmate 438 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 3: of the Year that year.

That's my favorite thing, and that 635 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:36,200 Speaker 3: was the show that really made me fascinated. I think 636 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:38,440 Speaker 3: with true crime and paranormal like every once in a 637 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 3: while they'd do a ghost one and I love like 638 00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 3: the Queen Mary episode it's so cool. So that kind 639 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 3: of started it all. So it was always a consumer 640 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,800 Speaker 3: of it and a fan of that storytelling. I was 641 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:52,879 Speaker 3: never into it professionally until about a year and a 642 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:55,879 Speaker 3: half ago a production company called Lion TV came to 643 00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:58,359 Speaker 3: me with a proposal to do a show called The 644 00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:00,639 Speaker 3: Playboy Murders, And at first I was like, absolutely not, 645 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:02,120 Speaker 3: I'm not doing another Playboy thing. 646 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:07,400 Speaker 2: I'm up to my ears and yeah, yeah, whether it's 647 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 2: like my book. 648 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:11,560 Speaker 3: Or my podcast hadn't started yet at the time, but 649 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,120 Speaker 3: I was thinking about doing it, and you know, Secrets 650 00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:16,119 Speaker 3: of Playboy was a lot to deal with and the 651 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:17,959 Speaker 3: backlash that came with that, I don't want to do it, 652 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:19,879 Speaker 3: but my agent was like, okay, just look at the 653 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 3: deck and see what you think. And they'd come up 654 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:23,879 Speaker 3: with a deck of like the stories they wanted to tell, 655 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,440 Speaker 3: and they were a lot of cases I had never 656 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:30,199 Speaker 3: heard of and just like fascinating things, and they were 657 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 3: all tied together by the fact that somebody in the story, 658 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:36,040 Speaker 3: whether it was the victim or the perpetrator, was involved 659 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 3: in the Playboy world some way, whether they were a 660 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,560 Speaker 3: playmate or a Playboy model or a bunny. And of 661 00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:42,480 Speaker 3: course I can relate to that a lot. And several 662 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 3: of the victims were people who would post for Playboy 663 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:47,880 Speaker 3: or were seen in like a sexualized light, and you know, 664 00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 3: a lot of you know, I have a lot of 665 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:52,959 Speaker 3: questions as far as like how the average person consumes 666 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:55,480 Speaker 3: stories like that, because people have a lot of preconceived 667 00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 3: notions about people who are in the sex industry or 668 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:01,920 Speaker 3: anything that's adjacent to the second industry. And I wanted 669 00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 3: to come to the stories from a perspective of humanizing 670 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:08,240 Speaker 3: those people and sharing other things about them besides the 671 00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 3: fact that they were ever naked at one point in 672 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:13,280 Speaker 3: their life. Right, Yeah, So I thought it was really interesting. 673 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 3: I was like, I would watch this show. So that 674 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 3: completely changed my mind and made me want to do it. 675 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:20,000 Speaker 3: And we just finished filming season two, which will be 676 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:21,240 Speaker 3: out at some point next year. 677 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 1: Do you feel like society has changed it all in 678 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:28,440 Speaker 1: terms of I don't know, a majority of people or 679 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 1: a larger number of people being more accepting of adult 680 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 1: entertainment kinds of things. Absolutely, But what's your take on that? 681 00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 2: I mean, I think absolutely made a ton of progress. 682 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 1: Is not that it's fixed. Yeah, what's you're thought? I 683 00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 1: don't know. 684 00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:45,320 Speaker 3: But there's still a long way to go, and I 685 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 3: think there's two different sides to duality. Again everything I 686 00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:54,719 Speaker 3: talk about, but even like you're talking about porn, you know, 687 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 3: there will be people on social media who love being 688 00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 3: an adult creator, whether they're doing it on OnlyFans or 689 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 3: doing it for a studio or whatever. But then there's 690 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 3: such a toxic side to the industry too, and I 691 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 3: think those stories should be heard first and foremost, so 692 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:10,360 Speaker 3: you know, reform can happen. 693 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 1: What kinds of things for someone who wouldn't know what 694 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 1: you're talking about. 695 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:17,560 Speaker 3: A lot of like women being taken advantage of and 696 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:19,960 Speaker 3: the adult industry, they get paid very little and kind 697 00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 3: of chewed up and spit out and don't necessarily know 698 00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:24,959 Speaker 3: what they're getting into. I don't think it would be 699 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:28,479 Speaker 3: a bad idea for a minimum age of like twenty 700 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 3: five to get into the adult industry at the very least. 701 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:31,960 Speaker 2: That's just my opinion. 702 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:34,960 Speaker 3: Other people in the industry might disagree, but I think 703 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,200 Speaker 3: it's a lot. I think people at a young age 704 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 3: aren't necessarily fully understanding of the lasting impact of having 705 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:42,480 Speaker 3: something out there like that, or they may think it's 706 00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 3: like cool and like rebellious and okay for the moment, 707 00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 3: but then it has more of a lasting impact than 708 00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 3: they realize. So I think it's important that a lot 709 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 3: of people who haven't had a great experience in the 710 00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:53,960 Speaker 3: adult industry are talking about it, so just more people 711 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,719 Speaker 3: can be informed. Like I follow different creators on TikTok 712 00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:59,280 Speaker 3: who talk about it just because I think it's fascinating 713 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 3: and interesting, and I think it's good that young people 714 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 3: are hearing those stories so if they ever think about 715 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 3: doing something like that, they can have a more informed perspective. 716 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:09,880 Speaker 1: And the other side of it is sort of this 717 00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:13,160 Speaker 1: empowerment thing too, where you can take control it some 718 00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 1: like only fans, where you can kind of create your 719 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 1: own destiny with that and have the right to do 720 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:20,640 Speaker 1: whatever you want to do. Yeah, absolutely, something. 721 00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 2: Like that, right, Yeah. 722 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 3: I think people need to think about like the emotional 723 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 3: impact of doing stuff like that too. I think there 724 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 3: are people who are cut out for it, but I 725 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 3: think there's a lot of people aren't. Okay, like I think, 726 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:34,160 Speaker 3: I think, I bet, I mean, there's gonna be people 727 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 3: who argue with me, of course, but I bet if 728 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:39,160 Speaker 3: you talk to somebody who's maybe like a full service 729 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:41,560 Speaker 3: sex worker and they love their job and they're totally 730 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:43,440 Speaker 3: into it. I bet if you ask that person even, 731 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:45,800 Speaker 3: they would probably say not. Everybody's going to be cut 732 00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:46,720 Speaker 3: out for this though. 733 00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 2: Right like you. 734 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:48,480 Speaker 1: That's most things in life. 735 00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:50,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, you'd have to have a sense I can't play football. 736 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:54,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, it's not everybody's going to be cut out 737 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 3: for it. But I think because most people can have sex, 738 00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 3: it's looked at as this thing that like anybody can 739 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 3: do so even money and anybody could. But I feel 740 00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:08,280 Speaker 3: like you probably have to have a certain confidence and 741 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:14,000 Speaker 3: threshold emotionally and sense of self and sense of ability 742 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 3: to navigate interpersonal relationships to make that work for you, 743 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 3: and not everybody has that. 744 00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:20,440 Speaker 1: Do you like you had that when you were twenty two? 745 00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:20,800 Speaker 2: Oh? 746 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:24,120 Speaker 3: Fuck no, No, I think I thought I did, though, 747 00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 3: because everybody thinks they're a badass when they're college aids. 748 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 1: I definitely did. I thought I was. Yeah. 749 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 3: I thought I knew everything. I thought I could handle everything. 750 00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:32,680 Speaker 3: I thought I could fuck like a man and not 751 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:35,360 Speaker 3: give a shit. Ro Are you kidding me? 752 00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:40,960 Speaker 1: No? So you say you didn't have that, but you 753 00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:43,000 Speaker 1: felt like you did. Yeah, like you were. You know, 754 00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 1: we all do, Yeah, everybody does. 755 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:45,360 Speaker 2: When they're young. 756 00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 1: Would you change any of that? Would you have waited 757 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:51,800 Speaker 1: or you know, was it worth it? I don't know. 758 00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 3: I think in a perfect world, I probably shouldn't even 759 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,240 Speaker 3: been dating in my early twenties. Like, I don't even 760 00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:00,000 Speaker 3: think I was genuinely like into sex until. 761 00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:00,959 Speaker 2: I was closer to thirty. 762 00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 1: What do you mean? 763 00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:04,240 Speaker 2: I just don't think. 764 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:09,440 Speaker 3: I feel like I dated more because I was lonelier 765 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:12,040 Speaker 3: because I thought that's what I should do. But looking 766 00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:14,400 Speaker 3: back and knowing who I am as a person, I 767 00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 3: think doing career related things would have been more constructive 768 00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 3: for me and not having like relationships tied up into that. 769 00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:25,560 Speaker 3: And I think if I would have had a clearer 770 00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 3: idea of like, you know what, you don't have to 771 00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 3: like be with a guy or date, be dating or 772 00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 3: be doing that, I could have just focused more on, 773 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:37,120 Speaker 3: you know, whatever I was passionate about or interested in. 774 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:40,720 Speaker 1: Did any of your experiences you know, in the Playboy 775 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:47,120 Speaker 1: scene change your views on sex h like today or 776 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,160 Speaker 1: down the line or later?

I think it more 780 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:03,719 Speaker 3: has changed my views on boundaries and holding boundaries. 781 00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:06,920 Speaker 2: You know. Yeah, I don't have a problem with sex 782 00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 2: per se. 783 00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:12,520 Speaker 1: So you have a boyfriend now, right, Zach Beggins, huge fan. 784 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:15,800 Speaker 1: I'll show you that one of my friends actually dressed 785 00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:19,160 Speaker 1: up as him for Halloween.

But the first big one where I 810 00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:22,400 Speaker 3: remember seeing something was when I first moved into the mansion. 811 00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:24,279 Speaker 3: I was in the gym working out, and I saw 812 00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:26,840 Speaker 3: a woman come out of the tanning bedroom and she 813 00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 3: kind of walked across the room, kind of around a 814 00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:33,000 Speaker 3: corner where I couldn't see her, and I'm on the treadmill, 815 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:35,040 Speaker 3: you know, working out whatever, looking in the same direction. 816 00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:36,840 Speaker 3: I don't ever see her come back out or anything 817 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:38,480 Speaker 3: like that. And before I left, I thought, well, I 818 00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:40,760 Speaker 3: should go over and introduce myself, because there were always 819 00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 3: people coming out to the property, whether they were like 820 00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:44,520 Speaker 3: testing for Playmate and staying in the guest house, so 821 00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:46,160 Speaker 3: you just never knew who you were going to see. 822 00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:48,000 Speaker 3: But I thought I should go introduce myself. So I'd 823 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:50,480 Speaker 3: go walk around the corner, and there's nobody there. There's 824 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:52,399 Speaker 3: nowhere else she could have gone, but there's nobody there. 825 00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:54,600 Speaker 3: So I don't know what that was. 826 00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:56,839 Speaker 1: So he's all ghosts in the Playboy Mansion. 827 00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:59,000 Speaker 2: Oh more than when people see the ghost. 828 00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:02,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, Like my co host on the show was in 829 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:06,080 Speaker 3: her room with two other people who all have very 830 00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:08,000 Speaker 3: different views on the paranormal, Like there's one who's a 831 00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:09,799 Speaker 3: scaredy cat and doesn't want to believe, like there's one 832 00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:11,640 Speaker 3: who's a skeptic, and then Bridge it's super into it. 833 00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:14,640 Speaker 3: They all three saw, actually I think there were four 834 00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:17,520 Speaker 3: people in the room. They all saw this dark haired 835 00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:19,680 Speaker 3: woman just appear in the bathroom doorway. 836 00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:22,239 Speaker 2: One of them started to crying.

What is she doing? And my mom would 938 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:27,759 Speaker 3: just be like, She's think she just does that. Yeah, 939 00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:31,080 Speaker 3: I would completely zone out. And I always kind of 940 00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:35,759 Speaker 3: had trouble socially, not recognizing social cues, not picking up 941 00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:37,920 Speaker 3: on things the same way other people did. 942 00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:41,080 Speaker 2: But I just made excuses for it. 943 00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:43,200 Speaker 3: I thought it was because I grew up in Alaska 944 00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:46,440 Speaker 3: and then around middle school age moved to Oregon, and 945 00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:49,040 Speaker 3: I thought, well, that was just a big social change. 946 00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:52,280 Speaker 3: So I'm just very introverted, like that's kind of always 947 00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:54,440 Speaker 3: how I wrote it off. But I went and got 948 00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:57,960 Speaker 3: diagnosed earlier this year, so now I know, and obviously 949 00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:01,160 Speaker 3: like I'm highly functioning, like it's not, but it's not 950 00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:03,920 Speaker 3: as extreme as it is for other people, so I'm 951 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:05,759 Speaker 3: not like the spokesperson for everybody. They call it a 952 00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 3: spectrum for the reason. So but I like knowing, I 953 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:11,680 Speaker 3: like understanding myself better, and I like being able to 954 00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:14,680 Speaker 3: tell other people too, because I feel like throughout my 955 00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:17,920 Speaker 3: life people have not really liked me, or have been 956 00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:21,399 Speaker 3: like rubbed the wrong way or like been they think 957 00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:24,080 Speaker 3: I'm like stuck up or snobby, or think I'm better 958 00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:25,839 Speaker 3: than everybody else, or have my nose in the air, 959 00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:27,200 Speaker 3: and it's like, no, I'm just I'm. 960 00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:29,400 Speaker 1: Just just because you're a playboy model or is it 961 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:32,000 Speaker 1: because you're saying or doing something that makes them feel 962 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:32,480 Speaker 1: like way? 963 00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:35,480 Speaker 3: I think because I'm more quiet, I've only recently learned 964 00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:39,200 Speaker 3: to make eye contact. I'm often often my own thoughts 965 00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:44,440 Speaker 3: things like that, so people take that okay, events they're like, 966 00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:46,759 Speaker 3: oh damn, you're not super interested in me.

And what is that 978 00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:14,680 Speaker 1: spectrum based on what the doctor told you? 979 00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:18,000 Speaker 3: Well, the doctor told me that I have high executive functioning, 980 00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:20,040 Speaker 3: which means I can pretty much go about my life 981 00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:24,960 Speaker 3: and do things quote unquote normally. There's a thing called 982 00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:27,279 Speaker 3: theory of mind that I'm not going to do a 983 00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:31,400 Speaker 3: good job explaining. But she said, I have a hard 984 00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:35,560 Speaker 3: time understanding why other people might think differently or do 985 00:42:35,719 --> 00:42:36,840 Speaker 3: things differently than me. 986 00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:40,080 Speaker 1: That's how you feel. Yeah, so you have a hard 987 00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:42,160 Speaker 1: time understanding why someone would not think the way you're 988 00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:43,000 Speaker 1: thinking about something. 989 00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:44,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I'm told. 990 00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:46,200 Speaker 3: Okay, I mean for me, it's hard to tell because 991 00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:48,960 Speaker 3: I've always i mean, we all have our ways of thinking, 992 00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:50,120 Speaker 3: and we've always thought that way. 993 00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:51,920 Speaker 2: So I think it's normal. 994 00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:55,799 Speaker 1: But I mean I think it's normal. Yeah, I mean 995 00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:59,800 Speaker 1: I feel like I've had to train myself to consider 996 00:42:59,880 --> 00:43:04,879 Speaker 1: that consciously. Right. Hey, this other person might not see 997 00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:07,759 Speaker 1: this the same exact way that you are in this 998 00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:11,680 Speaker 1: moment because we have different brains, different experiences, different points 999 00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:15,360 Speaker 1: of view, so it could never exactly be the same 1000 00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:19,080 Speaker 1: even if it's similar. Really, yeah, no way, So you 1001 00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:21,879 Speaker 1: know that about yourself? Now is how does that change 1002 00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:23,960 Speaker 1: the way you operate. Are you just thinking differently or 1003 00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:24,879 Speaker 1: being conscious of that? 1004 00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:29,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, it definitely makes me understand why I do the 1005 00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:32,759 Speaker 3: things I do. Like when I was getting diagnosed, it 1006 00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:36,359 Speaker 3: happens over a series of I lost track of how 1007 00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:37,560 Speaker 3: many appointments I did, and. 1008 00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:41,080 Speaker 1: Please tell me, like, what is that like, like you 1009 00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:42,759 Speaker 1: walked in in one day or is this months? 1010 00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 3: Or well we did it over zoom, but it was 1011 00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:47,719 Speaker 3: at least seven appointments.

You know, when 1096 00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:27,080 Speaker 3: I was younger, I would totally take that personally something 1097 00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:29,200 Speaker 3: yeah one hundred percent, or take it personally or think 1098 00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:31,279 Speaker 3: it was me. And now I have more patience, and 1099 00:47:31,320 --> 00:47:34,040 Speaker 3: I'm like, well, maybe they were just rushed that day, 1100 00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:35,880 Speaker 3: or maybe they just don't interact with people in the 1101 00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:39,160 Speaker 3: same way. Like even after discovering this about myself, I 1102 00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:42,840 Speaker 3: was talking with bridget on our podcast about a certain 1103 00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:45,320 Speaker 3: photo shoot and one of the models had been replaced 1104 00:47:45,320 --> 00:47:47,759 Speaker 3: because she had no personality, and we know who that 1105 00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:49,880 Speaker 3: model was, And I'm like, I don't think it's that 1106 00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:52,520 Speaker 3: she had no personality. I think, you know, not to 1107 00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:54,719 Speaker 3: diagnose somebody. This is just what I suspect.

Yeah. Yeah, We're never making this documentary. 1198 00:51:53,280 --> 00:51:55,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's the point of sharing stories, is we're 1199 00:51:55,040 --> 00:51:57,600 Speaker 3: all learning from each other's life experience exactly. 1200 00:51:57,360 --> 00:51:59,880 Speaker 1: Yes, And I think that is the silver lining and 1201 00:52:00,640 --> 00:52:05,759 Speaker 1: rehashing difficult times.
