don't want that to tear us apart. And speaking of not big failures, Bill
Yeah, I feel like you're honestly speaking from a place that's honestly frustrating me, because
I'm sorry. I don't know what to tell you guys, As you all know, I work at Bass Pro, but there is a man who is the bass pro. Um, he is the professional bass man and is a fisherman. Now, I need a little bit of clarity. Is the professional bass because your credit different for the same words in different ways? Way No new word, right? Why a He is the main bass man is a fisherman or, say,
a man who has
a lot of it. You have to live
the life to be able to sell the lifestyle. Okay? And he's the main bass pro math and fish from Maine, Or he's now, you know, he's a man who sits in a big deer stand in the middle of
the bass pro and makes sense it. And
we, uh, we always Well, I'm gonna say we worship. I would say you worship them. OK, you do pray five times a day facing him. Wow. Listen, you roll it your little carpet. I listen, I roll up my car, but I broke
my big cars. You put the whole carpet down. You remove a carpet from the room?
Yeah, I put a whole carpet down and then I get in my waiters and my little fishing inner tube, and I hook a
lure in my mouth and I
pray to the bass pro and guys, I Here's what I will say. He has noticed my servitude and easy answer your prayers. Ah, yes. I mean, it's hard
to miss a man starting a whole religion around you.

I I just wanted I think you could You were doing so well on your own here. A best pro looking inward, they don't. They promoted you to the best amateur. And yeah, I could become the best pro.
Weirdly
enough, I think being an underwater fish wrestlers is better than just worshipping at the feet of a guy. Yeah, the bass pro does not agree. Well, Bill, I think
you're you're projecting on the bass Pro because in reality, the man that you are are looking towards is simply the store manager. Yeah, he is a store manager who is standing in what, What what would be called like a crow's nest or something like that overlooking the whole store? Crow's nest, A prose nest. It's the press nest, and you are sort of deifying this man when

just a man with
responsibility. Gel sc That's not what is you jealous? That's not what it is. Oh, my God. Somebody Jealousy dont not look good on you, my
brand. So this whole season, this whole season since you've been at bass Pro we've been talking about fishing will be about man. It's an obvious upward
trajectory that hasn't been new. Every week it's been

to you or is it just like a regular fishing trip? You know where he's doing his thing? He's catching all the fish. You're we look, we do see each
other and, like glance at each other out on the boat and
again give each other. How about it?
Yeah, I give each other. How about it? Occasionally, he'll pass me a buy in a sausage of hyenas, VFW eyeing a sausage, and I will kind of go, Hey, you worship this guy. Wow. Listen, when he you don't
know that feeling when you've never been told any compliment at all and somebody passes. You wanted their vital that way. All know that feeling bill way all handle it are healthy way. It feels like your heart is going to explode. You said you've never been received any love. And then somebody gives you a nasty can to meet on a saltine cracker and your heart explodes. Can I ask

I mean, a good arcade would be that right now, not stand good for, you know, eso I am a little bit scared that I'm never gonna be able to get in there. Um, but, you know, I'm working with the mall. Walkers have been helping me. Ah, figure out a strategy to get back in there as well. Ah, but honestly, I'm I am starting to get nervous.
Well, the good news is sorry. Go ahead. You go ahead. Are you going to say that if the big moment and the Christmas party of the Christmas event the holiday special behold a spectacular, uh, go off without a hitch, I think we'll be able to get out of hell. Yeah. What?
The devil wasn't best part of the other day and he saw me. He was ah, I could
tell it was him. He was just kind of looking through some hooks and stuff and he
saw you going around. If you want to play guitar better, I got a deal for you.
Yes. Yea, he's He's very obvious. Um, and He was like, I'm headed down to Georgia. I'm headed down to Georgia. Uh, and, uh, he saw me sell a bunch of handguns. Two teenagers with weird records. Yeah, he's like anybody going doing about that likes you. That's great.
Yeah. You saw those kids in trench coats and you were like a really good
Yeah, I lured him over. Um, seldom a bunch of guys. I
hope he's around for the event. I really do. Because you know what?
We haven't happened.
I decided to even dates Toe happen, Todd. That's the truth.
I connected with tall Padre. Um, and for all intents and purposes, I think he is my son. Excuse. Wow. What we went through, somebody means for
all intents and purposes
Well, I adopted him.
Did he Cut? Explains the same last name this
whole time. Same. A similar first name. Hand mama's woman. I dated.
So did you just forget?
Well, you know, I have Let's just say a bit of a Johnny Appleseed when it comes. Teoh Familiar? Uh oh. He went around and planted seeds everywhere were apple trees. See if I'm like that, but with no, I'm sorry. The analogy is not working. Um,
well, you were like
a pot on your head. No,
the analogy is very much not working here. I don't do wear Podd on my head, but I noticed that's just for my carrot top. Like pothead humor. Uh, you
got to say
that you never do the punch line.
It's employed, but, um well, I adopted him, and ah, um, I've been parenting. Tell Padre Wow. And he has been my muse for questions for Daddy because he has been asking me all these questions, stealing them for my play. I'm saying, Oh, I would have liked Ask my
dad those questions. You shifted the focus of questions for Daddy away from the audience. And
the plan always was that The first half is me asking questions of my dad, and the second half is the audience
s. You haven't gotten rid of the part that part? No, they're still gonna The audience is still gonna ask you questions.
Oh, yeah. If anything, it's It's a bigger part. I've gotten even more makeup. I'm willing to go there. Still, I'm willing to do voices. I'm going to do accents. I'm going to go big. Um, so you and I've really felt good about the questions portion that I'm writing. I think that there won't be a dry eye in the house. Oh, God. Well,
physic. We're all getting pretty close to our thing. You know, you had to move back
the spectacular a little bit, but it feels like things are on the way. And I am hot on the trail of this tall mall robber. We
got some
security, you know. He's tall.
We got some security Flippy, and we only got the back of his
head just like my dad. And this guy's tall. Yeah, this guy's
Todd slippery and he's thin and he's slipping right in and out. We actually
were in the same store for 10 segregating me.
Really that close? What happens
really close. Well, it was a Charlotte roofs and I was in there chasing the mall robber. I was hot on his tail. You want shopping? No, I'm not at first
on then that that's what happened. I saw a beautiful blouse, right? And it was, I don't know, five, maybe 10 minutes in the changing room. And and I and he was gone when I
call. You thought you away for you?
Yes, but I did get video. And I do
know that this guy's going down. I think I've is timing down and I'm gonna catch
We've had his timing down For, what, 34 weeks
we found every morning every morning starts starts right at the front of the mall at the J Crew. Yes, but
I was one of those kids. You know how When
you're jumping rope, you have to get the timing down for a while before you go in your using your hands to show where the robes going.
Like it went during a doubling. Its
exact I've been one foot in
this double Dutch catching this kid. Yeah, because we're
so close. I remember we did a double Dutch and Guinness couldn't come faster for longest wait to get into a jumper. That's right. And know where there was a 38 hours,
38 hours and then quickest tie up quickest. Before I even got foot. Actually in the rope was around my neck like a noose fully tied up, yet I almost almost
quickest. Accident of suicide. Almost almost almost so. But it was They said it wouldn't have been a suicide, They would have blamed the murder on you guys. Uh
oh. Well, my jumper up defense and get me off the first time, so I don't know. Why would this time? Well, if you catch the robber bill, if you become a bass pro, Howard, if you figure out how to not marry your health, stepdaddy
And if you said that finger, I'll eat it.
If this event goes well and will, your finger will make some fingers. Uh, this affection you feel chicken fingers
repair wasted for feeders. I'm there. OK, And I'm gonna be that. I
think we could get out of hell.
I would hope
so. Everybody keep an eye out for the holiday Spectacular. The December 29th. We're doing a big Christmas event. December 29th
South. Everybody's gonna be dead right? When everybody is pulling down their lights
and getting ready for the new year. We remind them come with his business.
But let's take a quick break before
that. Attention mall customers. The Foot locker has changed both ownership and concept. No longer will they be selling shoes. It is now a small locker containing feet again. Foot Locker has changed What it is. Alright,
guys. Thank you, uh, for sticking with us here in the lounge. We are back after a little break. Got ourselves.
You need to think people for listening. It feels like, uh
almost think it's nice. I think it's nice to let people know that you appreciate him. You know, maybe that always thank people for listening after I do my poetry, I always do it. Yeah, I think it's nice. I think it's maybe wrong of Utah to not think people for paying attention to you. And I excuse my plagiarism usually at that. That poetry.
Yeah, well, and you're plagiarizing, like a lot of, like 19 sixties and seventies African American poets. So it's
Yeah, it's ah, a lot of people say, Yeah, that was appropriate. That was opposed.
Saying inappropriate, inappropriate appropriation, Just like every not every episode of most ever says we've got a guest in the lounge today. Ah, it's a guy we've met here at the mall. He's a really good guy. Way all get along really well on. He works at my favorite kiosk. Ah, which is the massage kiosks, the little the little fast massage kiosk, a in the middle of the mall. And that's our buddy Kevin. Kevin. Welcome to the lounge, buddy. So good man, were really good. We appreciate you coming around today.
More pleasure. You know, uh, I was also always wondering what you're doing here.
Damn. Kevin is silky smooth.
Thank you. I love it.
It fits. It fits with your whole persona. You know, You you know, you're slinking around your your your smooth you're grabbing on people's shoulders.
Your you sometimes Ah, massage outside of your kiosk. Yes, sometimes.
But you know what? Never for pay. Never pay. That's for
fun. For you.
Well, that's just, you know, uh, altruistic, right? Wow, That's a good perspective.
None of us knew anything about altruism. I don't think
there, um we wanted to have you in because I'm always curious about a kiosk like that. Is that a step towards having your own business outside of them? All of massage therapy, or,
you know, honestly, my philosophy is kind of move one day at a time. So this fling story, how actually started? He asked,
Okay. Yeah, go ahead.
I was kind of sitting down eating a sandwich, and this is my seat on the bench next to me. It's very funny. Yeah, isn't it? That's kind of how go? Yeah, Uh uh CMS an image. And, uh, you know, this person said that nice to me. And like they were crying, I was like, Oh, I couldn't help but comfort by touching them by touching that was that was a big risk for me to take. I suppose I realize that now,
in the moment, How did a how did that person reacted
at first was a chill. Feel the chill on their person. But then, like I absorbed to chill, you know, you don't like the sound, then subsided? Not just, like, kind of like massage into the shoulder. And
did you start crying? When you when you say, absorbed the
feel, the chills. Okay, leg map. The emotions.
Okay, so you're like a like the X man, that rogue ex man, Except you don't take on the power. You just take the power
from somebody else that I've never thought of. Like that.
Yeah, Yeah, I'm pretty clever sometimes. Guys, sometimes
what it really seems like you are an impact like your You're receiving energies from other people and you're really tuned in with me even right now. Like because I'm talking to you. I see you getting like, a little angry or like how I
have two interesting, like, makes the hair on my neck this stand up a little bit, but, you know, I think they need to scream. Subsided me. So I guess I'm kind of like, Ah, human emotional sandbag comes at me, absorbs And then kind of
Yeah, which is good in amount like this, because we let's just say the patrons of this small can be pretty extreme.
Yes, you are never distracted. I've seen you in your massage work, and this stuff could be going on crazy around you. And you are tuned
into the oils, candles, everything. Stones, the hot stone.
It's a little interest in the
cold stone that you're eating it Cold stone creamery that I'm
eating. It's a little interesting that you have the oils, the candles, all of that. But you do those massages in those weird little like turnaround chairs. There's no back, and I feel like I did see well, I mean, I got him aside for me the other
day and I was fully naked in one of those chairs, which
is not the
best looking thing for the person getting the massage. You know, like you can just see the top of my my. But my genitalia is kind of crammed up on this front bar,
and I do try to cover that with a
towel grab, but gravity. So it's on you. Yeah, you only see, like, you kind of see my pubic hair in the base of my Penis. And then the top of my crack, which I would like is I'm humiliated. I'm humiliated right now. And you were like, Chill out, chili.
Hey, you humiliated. Let's deal with great,
right? And eventually, you know, you're sort of
the one who is humiliated him.
You do those with your clothes on, that's why. Can't Yeah, that's why I got But
you also can Yeah, that's what I mean.
Maybe should not. You can, but should not exactly. Can't get deep enough if you got your clothes on. That's what I
Now I have gotten a lot of complaints as
the mall security about some of your massage work. Yes. Uh, okay. Okay. Good.
I just wanted to let you know I have gotten some complaints that I don't really think there's anything that you don't deal with its complaints or issues at the mom. You take them down and say, We'll be looking right into this on and then I go to sleep. I
also got a massage, and I think we all might have a point at some point. Has those Christmas coupons I gave you? Oh, yeah. Thank you. I didn't even think
I use that and those air cookies, right? Hold onto him and bring him back. Teoh
Better. But one of the complaints, I think was for me because I was a little upset. How? How much you walked on my back. Okay. I felt like
so you didn't You did not enjoy that?
No, I because it was I think you were wearing Doc Martens. Uh,
you're a
big man. Yeah, well, you know, you have a lot of tension in your back, huh? And, uh, I don't know if you noticed. I did try to, like, use my hands, and then a very isn't work punching in chopping.
Oh, I noticed
there was like it did seem like I mean, Todd was pretty beat up after this. It did seem like you started to when you were up there stomping around on his back. A crowd started to gather as if it was a stomp performance. And you sort of leaned into that and you were slamming trash
trash cans. I was like Savion Glover. Bring it. Yeah, I apologize. Then I got to get in the movie. They started like heels. His heels amounts like I give the people with Yeah,
Yeah, it was almost like a room and torture show for me. Oh, you know, everyone. But I think they just wanted to see hell because they wanted to see how much pain you could put me through
there. Now, let me ask you this, though. How is that lumbar broken?
And also, how have the previews
for that been going Cause that quickly got picked up off
Broadwell. I am nothing if not a sucker for an audience. So we ended up taking the show on Broadway, and
I hope you
like it might be headed the great White way.
I mean, fingers crossed, fingers
crossed, You know, I mean, like again one day at a time, right
issue. We're dealing with is the lawsuits from Stomp? Because
what you call the play
style stuff way put a period at the end instead of exclamation because, like, you know, I'm sure.
Well, I thought you were going to
bring in sort of a Neck Quist theme to it. You were trying out.
Yeah, well, we're kind of just going through all the big ones. So there is. Ah, there's a pretty heavy portion of it where I'm in a horse costume and we found love,
young. And so what's it called? It? Is it just stomper? Is it called? Something
that we put a pin? You We tell the audience to leave and we say telling one outside It's a quiz now exactly
there by its Equis. Can you sound tell everybody? Exactly. Is that one person who? How does this work? Well, yeah, but because both play sound good, but I'm missing how they
could. Well, our plays all have a foreman in the audience. That kind of is the one that guides everything. Yeah,
like a head usher.
No, it's one of the audience member participating
like a jury foreman. Like they have to vote up like like which happens after actress. Sounds like
you guys are have been spending a lot of time with each other. I don't know you. You were you were making So it's such good friends at the mall. Todd
Will e you know it Z kind of thing. Like when you're having from time gonna kind of live
right. It's just interesting cause your play is long, but the play is long. It's
hard to tell
when you're having fun because you're so chill I can't tell if you're really happy A little bit angry.
Yeah. No, that doesn't set me.
I'm sorry about. It's interesting. It's interesting
that your guys sort of relationship that you developed over the course of this massage. Actually, I did. And it seems to completely contradict my experience, which is? I sat down in the chair. You looked at my back and said, uh and then asked me to lead Oh, wow, Yeah,
because you can refuse service. There was a lot of six is, like, written on your back. Yeah, I don't know if you know,
I haven't looked at my back recently
with the mark of the beast
market. The bees, Your back is a curse it
real Mike. We have
noticed that. Well, Howard back is it really? It's gaining some steam in the same way men in hell. I haven't checked my back. You have You checked your backs? No,
no, I don't do a back check
anymore. It's good to give yourselves a back check when you can. It's
like like checking for cancer thing. In this case, we're checking for the mark of the beast. You've been marked, Howard. I guess that means I'm not doing great at my job. You are locked out of your R K. Yeah. Uh, wow. Okay. Well, that's good
information. I would Honestly, I would have appreciated that information
when it happened, because in the moment, it's sort of more felt like you were displeased with the canvas. It was an artist saying I can't work with this this piece of marble,
right? And that is not an artist, right? They work with any. It is my bad. We should have had a postmortem on that massage.
But maybe that's expecting a lot too. Is a full sit down to talk about what
happened? He asked him, You know, I do get busy,
right? No, I know. I noticed when I left there was a line A. There was a line all the way back to wet seal. I was like cheese.
Have you considered taking on some other employees there? Because you're doing a five at once massage where you're
kind of bouncing around. It's kind of like Have you ever played the game like leapfrog like That's what I get, like, all five in a row. And then I will just roll over top of yeah, using heavy elbow on. Everybody just sort of gets one at a time, records one of time. But then, my kind of trick is, if there seems to be like a some sort of feeling where everybody is like, Wow, you're touching me right now. No, seven times ago, I have leapt men like before. Phantom Phantom presses eggs. Wow, that's interact. It
is
interesting. While you're doing the role, you're also saying, like, we were mainly
and they will be in a couple of whips
like a mistake. Whoops. Yeah. What's happening then? I'm falling down. Yeah, you're our shoes. Have you do occasionally get out of
control and we see you whipping through the
mall oiled up going a
really fact is really fast, if probably 15 mph. Yeah. Crashed into the limited to the
other day when, right through
the front display, but came out wearing the clothes of the mannequin
you did and called it a would like ellipses. Yeah. Yes. So that's a lot of complaints I've been getting. Is wearing that small skirt fits and big, chunky
pink jewelry. It just kind of female. Kind of fits. If it works, it works.
Kevin, uh, must be eggs off. You should. Now they're your Now that those clothes of yours? Yeah, a manikins wearing your clothes? Just just that, Kevin, a lot of massage therapists have to go through schooling and all that kind of stuff. Your your story is so unique in how you started the kiosk. Did you actually go to school to become a massage therapist, or is it more just Ah, hobby. That's
very interesting. Uh, were you a savant? I like supposed like the When I was doing that first massage, a crowd did gather, you know, and then people sit down And then, just like this monk set there, and I put my hands on his back. He puts hand on the forehead. That's beautiful, isn't it? Wow. And then he said myself, You are the one. Whoa, A monk said that Teoh. Yeah. So
you were in a mall food court eating a sandwich on a
bench and mournful court bench. That bench that look onto the good places on
and someone started crying. So you started massaging him or her?
Him, Him a 72 year old man. Okay. And
so crowds are gathering. And a monk was in the mall for shopping.
Madras. My monk came out hella bags,
but it was like a
woman. Maybe this is the idea of, like, the opposite of giving up your worldly possession, right? And did
you accept it when he said you were the one? Was it an immediate like I can do this? Or was there a child like a neo? A major challenge for you?
Uh, well, so like the forehead on my hand? I I asked him. I said kinds are monk, and I didn't That's that's all called him. He didn't. You never give me his name. I said, What do you mean? And he said, I think you know, I said, I don't know what time these monks and be confused. It could be confused, really convincing them When he put his hand in my head, he put put one finger on there and I kind of like, fell back in my head into, like, water on. And then I just breathe in the water from and I spit out and, like, I have the knowledge of all massage knew and because you did really knowledge about going to a found
out Can I tell you something? I've seen the security video, and what it looks like is Tony Shaloub shoved you into a found
you said a monk. But a monk that makes sense when he was shopping. So I don't have So I was seeing
a man in a monk costume. Tony should lose Mom. But that was that, actually, Tony salute
that may. Eventually it could have been. It could have
been a consumerist Tony shall live fan. Okay, I'm not certain, but you're sure. But in the probably to the time, your experience is still the same. And that's what's important is I saw you before and after, and you are a changing.
I am changing you know, you got the knowledge of all massage that can't be made of that can't be faked, Tony to live bush into a fountain. And then, you know, a lot of found more than just a suburb put on a smooth voice and now
does massages. No, that would not be a good description of who I am.
You do do all sorts of massage? Some I haven't even heard of. I mean, there's classic Thai, Swedish s'mores massage, Bulgarian. What
could you describe? A very and research to its
Ah, Now, I don't know if you know the soup. Lex is e. Yeah. I take the person and grab him around their
belly to belly or building about
belly to back. Good. A wrestling move As far as I'm it. Also arrested. Okay. Also, multiple applications. Uh, exactly. Ah, I mean, just, like, bring the person back full force before full force.
You do a you do a belly to back soup. Lex on that is a Bulgarian besides Bulgaria Massage. OK,
now it seems like a lot of your massages are labeled
different things, but they're all full force wrestling moves. You okay? I can see that Yeah, Now I do. A Macca's
You gave me a uses Cravy. Yeah, but you call me a game is let's be
honest, a Boston crab zey classic wrestling move where you take both arms are both legs and you sort of bend them over backwards over a person's head. So they sort of bend in a backward see putting pressure on their spy lower. Yeah, so, Well, you literally just saying l three vertebrae made me realize that maybe this is actually also a massage. It's not just arrested. The
other day you were giving me a massage and you put me stomach down on the floor, grabbed my ankle and twisted it really hard and yelled, I'm Ken Shamrock on. Then someone ran out and started yelling. He's snapping, he's snapping.
And it was
Oh, my God, this man broke his ankle in and this man is dead. But what
I was saying drank a beer in the corner of the way to Yeah, smashing. Get kind of That's that. That is, I will say, I've never incense. Yeah,
