most important question of this show ishow the hell are you doing? And
FYI, I'm doing awesome. It'sbeautiful out where I am it's a little
chilly today, but nowhere near ascold as it is anywhere else. Oh,
it's really it's kind of chilly heretoo. It's about forty five here
(07:09):
up here in the Portland Portland Portlandarea is where I live, Portland,
Oregon area. Beautiful out there rightnow. Well, it has been raining
this week. You know, we'reknown for our rain as much we are
for our craft beer. And butit's been a whild couple of weeks here
(07:31):
as far as weather goes. Really, we had a big winter storm here
about three weeks ago that it startedat snow and then freezing rain and then
complete sheet ice. Oh my goodness. And I kind of took a tumble
on the ice three times. I'mon some heavy duty muscle relaxer still and
(07:57):
god, of course, you know, not a spot start here, rock
Star, not a sponsored the show, not yet. No, So let's
start at the beginning. Tell usa little bit about yourself. Okay.
I was born and raised in southernCalifornia, been here my whole life.
(08:18):
I haven't really traveled much out Iwant to change that. Though. I've
been an athlete my whole life.I started playing soccer when I was ten
years old and played competitively, playedthroughout high school, played a little bit
in college, and then played semiprofessionally. I have a bachelor's degree degree
(08:39):
in English. So my other hobbiesI like to write. I write poetry.
I did write one erotic short story, so I do want to write
more short stories. I have awhole lot of fun writing. Let's see
what else. I got into fetishwrestling when about a little over a year
(09:01):
ago. I was a personal trainerand a fitness model for a few years,
and so I had some of myfitness modeling step up and I was
approached by a producer on Instagram,and I had heard of the whole fetish
wrestling industry and he asked me ifI was interested in shooting to the stuff,
(09:24):
and I was like, yeah,let's do it. And so that's
where I got into the industry.Since then, I've taken some some Brazilian
jiu jitsu classes I had in thepast, taken a few more Thai classes.
But it is something that I wantto like continue to do. So
it's kind of like one of thosethings that's like it's it's something I want
(09:46):
to do, and it's something that'slike on my goal list, But I've
been an athlete with my whole life. But yeah, that's pretty much the
gist. Employment. So you gotstarted through a producer. I know you've
done stuff with hit them At before. Yes, with Darius, who's a
good friend of mine. Okay,Yeah, I love Darius. He's awesome.
(10:09):
Yeah he is super awesome, dude. Yeah, he's super cool.
Have you met anyone outside of like, have you met any other like session
wrestlers or producers. I've met morelike I've met like obviously a lot of
people come to La Area, whichwhich is where I've been shooting because I'm
(10:33):
based out of southern California. ButI haven't personally met any other producers besides
like Darth Irene, who I've workedwith and Faith got his Faith. I
haven't worked with them as producers,have only worked with them as models.
But I I've been wanting, I'vebeen, We've been in the talks of
working. It's just mostly because Ihaven't had the means to travel yet.
(10:56):
That's kind of just my biggest obstaclefor every right now is that everywhere everyone
else is not here, So Iwould have to figure that out. And
this isn't you know, it isn'tsomething that I do full time, so
I do have other you know,I have another job. I have two
other jobs that I have to kindof go around. So it's it's you
know, I'm still new to theindustry, you know, only a year,
(11:20):
so I'm still building. I'm stillbuilding. I do want to work
with Alexander Hamilton that's up North.I know she's huge in there a lot.
I've heard a lot of great thingsfrom fans and models about her.
She's somebody I definitely want to workwith, you know, uh sleeper kids
(11:45):
like I want to go out thereto Atlanta and work with Faith and him.
There's I think it's nostalgic erotic studiothat is like the mud and oil
wrestling, and he's up in NewEngland. He hasn't talking to me about
shooting since for almost a year.But again it's like it's a travel part.
(12:07):
That's just the biggest obstacle for me. I'm not working with other other
producers. It's just it just hasn'thappened yet. Yeah, you know,
it kind of sucks that I haven'thad anybody sending questions for you. So
I'm just gonna make ship up onthe fly. And that's why I'm going
to let you know now that thisis like no no filter, say whatever
(12:30):
you want, okay anyway, butI fucking do it. Even at my
own job. It's got and Iwork retail pharmacy, and it's gotten me
in trouble. See. I hadto learn to be careful because I teach
soccer to little kids and I can'tbe like, mess up. I'll be
(12:54):
like ship and I'm like, Imean nothing, I didn't say that.
It's like darn, Like I'm gladI haven't said like I haven't said in
front of them. I'm just like, oh, but I learned to like
not say try to talk at allwhen I don't have to. I've learned.
I've learned how to curtail it sometimes. But nine times out of ten,
(13:16):
there's no filter from brain the mouth. It's like it's like I tell
It's like I tell people, Ithat's like a sailor because I was one.
Were you really m hm? Athird generation? Wow? Third generation
United States Navy? Yes, Ohwow, that's that's super cool. I
go from from the Navy hosting afetish wrestling podcast, who have times of
(13:39):
change you were, you were manyhats. Well, this is actually only
one of three shows that I do. I saw on your age that you
do like a craftier show too,Yes, I do. In fact,
I have something. I have somethingright here that I picked up at Barnes
and Noble. Hell. But what'ssaid is, you know, we're known
(14:03):
for our craft beers up here.But it only mentioned two Oregon companies in
this whole really, and I'm familiarwith both of them. In fact that
that's the gist of my travels.In fact, I'm getting ready to travel
to Vegas here Tuesday is for craftbeers. And the way I do my
(14:26):
travel I wait until I get mytax return. Yeah, or I'll take
like a six grand loan on myfour and one k at work. Whatever
you do. You know it wasfirst class airfare last year. I mean,
hey, but there are I mean, there are some you know,
(14:52):
talented, talented wrestlers that are outthere, especially in LA that I know.
I know. Jennifer Thomas is there. Uh Jennifer Thomas. Oh god,
she's a sweetheart. She is,She's such a sweetheart. Let's say
they're Sydney Thunder that's out there,that's down there yet. And I think
(15:16):
Nadiam Miller's down there too. Shewas from Seattle originally, but then she
moved down there. I believe Imet all these I met all of them
at the very first Women on Fire, but it wasn't called that then.
It was called the Session Girls event. I was the official media representative,
and I learned a very valuable lesson. It was Father's Day weekend in Los
(15:43):
Angeles. What do you think wearingall black at the hit the Matt Jim
and I ended up getting heat exhaustion, like really bad. Well we're not
used to that stuff up here.Okay, Yeah, it's yeah, I
guess I guess that's fair. Youdid not know. You did not come
(16:07):
prepared. I was joking, youknow, I was joking with people,
you know, Ransom much here.I could take a jet ski down I
five to get to work in Portlandon any given day. Yeah, I
hear. It's it's like it rainsand we don't know what to do.
We're like, yeah, you guyshave a don't have a storm down there,
weren't you. Yeah? I meanwhere I'm at because I'm in the
(16:32):
Desert Valley. That's where I amso I'm like Palm Springs, Palm Desert
area, so we I get evenless rain than they do. But there
was a big storm over there,but I feel like drizzled over here.
So yeah, because I haven't evenI have family that lives down in l
A too, okay, and theygot caught in it, Like I just
(16:55):
heard about it. I'm like,oh, they're okay. I'm like,
yeah, uh, you're really farefrom here. You're from this part of
the country anyway, so you areright now. One thing I've I always
like to ask my guests is hasthere any but any contact been with the
(17:18):
l f C, the Laundry FightingChampionship. I the only the only contact
that I've had is I talked toJennifer Thomas about can D the event.
I haven't. I don't feel thatI am skilled enough yet to actually participate
in that. And then I've interviewedwith Mike Washston, who does Mike Larkin.
(17:44):
Yeah, that's my broski. He'sone of my best he's one of
my best friends. Really, yes, uh, we talk all the time
on Facebook. We actually at onetime did a dual podcast. Oh really,
we were on the same time.I was a guest on his and
he was a guest on mine.I love that. I love that you
(18:08):
guys have you know, like thecommunity, like it's just like giving to
each other all the time. Ilove that about this industry. You know,
it's not just this industry, youknow, where you have to support
the supporters, support the creators youhave. I mean, I belonged to
this group on YouTube called the brewCrew. You know, they're based out
(18:30):
of Ireland, and that's cool,and they'll see me post on Twitter and
then they'll retweet it and they'll walkthey'll listen to the show when they can.
I mean, I look at myI look at my viewers, and
I see that I got, youknow, people in Ireland, Canada,
India, just all over the flippingworld. And I'm just like wow,
(18:52):
hard to believe that when I startedthis show December twenty eighth, twenty eighteen,
a little tiny, you know,just doing it off my phone,
it's just grown so much in thelast five years that I'm just mind blowing.
(19:14):
I'm glad. I'm glad for thatfor you. I love that.
I love hearing like testimonial that workingout, just because you know, anytime
I'm entering something new, like,like I said, with this industry,
it's like I'm not just looking totake from it, like I want to
give back. And of course,you know, being you, I don't
know what to really give or whatto offer. But I I love when
(19:36):
I need supportive people and I wantto support them back. And I think
it's really cool that you that youhave a show on craft beer because I'm
a huge crap beer enthusiast. Likeoh, I used to work. I
used to work at a brewery inin the Inland Empire. We had to
get like the the certified beer cisteroand certified, so I have that and
(19:59):
they help I helped brew a fewyears there, so I love. I
went to Portland one time, actuallytried out for the Portland Thorns. Really
really didn't make it, obviously,but I made a whole trip out of
it, and I ended up tryingsome of the beers out there because I
mean, I was like, Imean I'm not I gotta try you got
(20:25):
it. There's like hundreds of breweriesthat, like even in within you know
where my my hotel was. It'sjust I wish I remembered all of them.
It's just crazy we have just withinbecause I live in just north of
Portland in Vancouver, Washington. That'swhere I live. Okay, okay,
(20:45):
that's the name Washington Russell talk.But when I tell people Vancouver, they
think Canada. Canada is the wayof things. But we were We were
first and weed you guys, andwe've got beer. But just with it,
you know, just believe it.Just to give you, you know,
(21:07):
a basic example. You could goas far north as Seattle, all
the way down the I five Court, all the way down I five to
Eugene, and you could hit atleast four hundred different breweries. That's not
and that's not even going you know, on eight eighty four to eastern Oregon,
(21:30):
eastern Washington, or even onto thecoat the Oregon coast and Washington Coast.
We have more craft breweries per capitathan anybody in the world. And
strip clubs, apparently was the otherstrip clubs. Strip clubs, somebody's gotta
(21:52):
make a hybrid. It's like astrip club craft a strip club brewery,
right and still and still not asponsor. You know, I've got the
raspberry lemonade rock Star this only thisonly has five calories. Oh really nice?
Nice. I used to drink theoh that was the monsters, the
(22:17):
white ones. These are recoveries.Usually I drink the if I've drank too
much the night before. Gotcha,I gotta get gott to replenish those electrolytes.
God that I don't know what itis. It's it's just there's just
(22:37):
no flavor. So back to back, back to. Uh oh, yeah,
I forgot about this. This isso cool. A little Christmas present
that my dad gave me. Oh, old school beer bottles. They're empty,
(22:57):
of course, but these are likethe logos from the sixties, seventies
and eighties. What that is socool? I love that. Yeah,
my dad got that. I can'ttell. Look like, are they like
full size? Are they smaller?They're small? I mean like, okay,
here's a TBR bottle. Oh mygod, they're so cute. I
(23:18):
little things. I love that.I got that for Christmas. That I
have no probably like Amazon or something. You know, we got a lot
of people, We've got a lotof weird shots here in Vancouver. I'm
not gonna lie. I love thatthough. I love a little weird ship.
(23:40):
We have anything that's just we didn'tfind anywhere else. I'm like,
I love that kind of shit wewe have, like you know, we're
known for our craft beers, butthis stuff here, we are it's dead
zone up here. It's a totaldead zone there. There are no wrestlers
unless they're traveling throughland. Oh interesting, there's barely anything in Seattle anymore.

ponytail in boxing gloves, getting theship kicked out of them? Did you
(25:18):

a guest on my show, youget a chance to beat up the podcaster,
okay, which means you get allthe sales, pre sales, all
that. I get nothing but moreaudience. Okay. So how does that
work? Well, we figure itout. We figure it out, gotcha.

(31:34):
a guest. If you're a guest, let's see for this year, I
will be see again. If if, if you only knew the story behind
(31:56):
me and my day of birth.But this isn't about me today, It's
about you. I'm like, ifyou want to tell me the story,
I'll listen. Are you sure?Are you prepared for this? I'm prepared
for anything, all right? Soyour boy here, your boy here,
was born on seven seven of seventyseven. Really, that's the best birthday
(32:20):
ever. It gets better. Iwas born the seventh minute of the day.
What at seven pounds fifteen ounces.I came home at seven pounds seven
ounces. I was twenty one inchesin length, which is seven times three.
I have seven letters in my name. Michael What the fuck? That's
(32:47):
cool? What's my favorite number?Seven? Nope, thirteen thirteen, that's
like the next lucky number. Idon't know, you want to call it.
I do that to joke with people. I say, yeah, it's
actually six six six, the numberof the Beast. As you can see.
(33:08):
You know, I love I loverock music. You know I love
like Iron Maiden, you know,the number of the Beast albums probably one
of the most my favorite albums ofall TIMEA of course, been a fan
of Metallica since I was about theycame out in eighty one. Was I
(33:29):
when I was four? Saw themwhen I was six for the first time.
I was six when I saw himfor the very first time. Wow,
So you went to a Metallica concertwhen you were six? Yep,
that says a lot. That's dedication. I mean it is like a six
(33:52):
year old. Can you imagine asix year old I can't imagine a six
year old at any concert. Muslim'sMetallic A one. You're real, You're
go ahead, you know, AndI could think I could thank my late
uncle for this, my late unclefor that, because he gave me that
the original Kill Them All vinyl recordfor my my birthday, which ended up
(34:14):
getting taken away by my first gradeteacher. It was deemed too violent in
nineteen eighty four for first grade.First grade. That's funny, that's a
good story. So you so youmentioned that I've seen your I've seen your
(34:36):
instagrams where you are doing the soccerthing, you know, and you mentioned
that, now, if the Thornsever did another tryout, would you I
prob I mean, I probably wouldn't. I'm I'm just not at that fitness
level or for professional soccer. I'mI'm kind of past the age of where
(35:00):
I would actually have a substantial careerin professional soccer. So it's age is
just a number, It's true.But at the same time, like being
fit for professional soccer is a fulltime job. It really is. And
(35:21):
it's at this point like it's likeI gotta I gotta work, I gotta
do other stuff. I gotta makemoney, Like I wouldn't have time to
dedicate myself to that type of fitness. It's like you gotta train, like
you know, you got you gottatrain your skills, you got to waight
lift, and you got to doyou know, like cardiovass your killer conditioning.
(35:43):
It's like you gotta do all ofthat all the time to be in
shape, just to just to tryout and keep up with everything, you
know. And then even then,you know, like unfortunately, professional soccer
doesn't pay very much unless you're youknow, one of the big names that's
already you know, they're already recruitedand everything. So even if you do
(36:05):
make it there, the pay isn'tisn't great, and so it's just it's
just not it's something that it wasfun and it was a great ambition for
me when I was younger, andthen kind of like I'm just I'm at
the age now where it's like there'sthe time it would take for me to
(36:27):
get to prepare, like by thetime i'd actually need it enough to be
to be to try out, likeI'm going to be like almost forty years
old, you know what I mean. So it's like it's it's just it's
it's kind of like, uh yeah, like most most players that are my
age have already retired, so it'slike not really, you know, It's
it's funny you say that I've seenIn fact, I remember reading this story
(36:54):
there was this guy that played Divisionthree college football. Mm hmm, fifty
six years old. Yeah, Ithink that's super cool because that's something that
I have like thought about. Thething is, the thing is is like
I would have to find a DivisionIII school that's around me, which I
(37:17):
did find one. It was justit was really expensive private school. And
because you can't do like NC doulea, like you can't do any of
those because you have you can onlygo into those sports like you have to
intramural intramural basically like an you wouldhave to do in mural. But even
then, like I was like playingon an actual team would be cool.
(37:39):
But I played two years at acommunity college level, and so I only
have two years of eligibility left.So even then, but I didn't play
How long ago was that? Howlong ago was that when I played in
community college? Yeah, two thousandand eight. There might be an exception
because of COVID, because of thepandemic. Really, yeah, there might
(38:04):
be exceptions. You might end upgetting another four years. That's something to
look into, Yeah, because Iknow I know a lot, especially like
in college football. I've read guys, there's a guy coming back to do
his eighth year availabibility next year.There's been guys doing okay, six and
seven years in college because of theCOVID pandemic. Interesting, and so you
(38:30):
missed the entire pandemic when it comesto like this industry, right, Yeah,
I probably was the only person thatever traveled during the pandemic. Yeah,
it was. It was. Imean it was hard to travel too.
I ended up like, I don'tever travel, but I ended up
(38:50):
traveling to meet a friend. Andit was weird being at the airport.
It was so empty. I actuallydid a big trip. I usually do
my trips either in March ord ofOctober right around Halloween. I always going
to Vegas for Halloween because it's somuch fun, especially the hotel I stay
at, you know, seeing allthe little kids dressed up and one yeah,
one of my favorites was a kiddressed up as Deadpool. I'm like,
(39:15):
you the man, and then theyI used. I have like tea
shirts that were special made Deadpool tshirts. I mean I paid money for
these, and my favorite one isa Seattle Seahawk Deadpool. Okay, that
sounds cool. Yeah, but duringthe pandemic, you know, I traveled
(39:40):
to Vegas. This was also rightaround the time of the election. The
presidential election. Okay, I hadnever seen Vegas, so I was on
Fremont Street, ghost Town. Icould walk to this biggest strip in twenty
(40:05):
minutes dead That's so crazy. Andthen and then I flew out to Milwaukee,
Wisconsin, and they've got they've gotsome good beers there. I know
that really. Oh yeah, yeah, Milwaukee's got some really good crap beers.
(40:27):
They're my second favorite. So mymy top three. Of course,
Portland d number two. Milwaukee numberthree is going to be at Story of
Queens. You know New York Citythat God, they love their stouts.
(40:49):
Oh my god, they love stouts. And not just any stouts, but
double Imperial Scouts at like fourteen percent. That will knock on your art.
They're very stout stouts. I've beento Atlanta. Uh, didn't get a
chance to work. Didn't get achance to talk with Sleeper though. When
(41:09):
I was down there, which iskind of unfortunate. I've been there three
times, but I would definitely loveto have. Sleeper actually was the very
first at this wrestling podcast. Really, that's that's cool to know. I
didn't know that, and I didn'tbecome this until I started interviewing. Uh.
(41:35):
But well, it was because Icovered an LFC event that was free,
you know, they gave it topeople for free, and I reviewed
it on my show, and thenI started doing interviews and just snowballed.
Mike Larkin, of course, hasbeen interviewing people for before he started doing
the LLFC podcast, right, likehis family has like all been in radio,
(42:00):
and well he knows that I haven'talways been in radio. I'm a
karaoke singer normally nice what's your gojusong? Shit? Really, I've got
two hundred and forty seven different songsI've sang. I mean I believe that,
but like, what's your what's likeyour first place you go to,
(42:20):
Like you've never been to this place? Sing karaoke? Like, what's your
song? Jump in the line byHarry Bellefonte. Okay, and if I'm
really really really feeling it. Thereis this one song by the Scottish band
called Ailstorm. It's gotten me introuble a few times at certain places.
(42:44):
It's called fucked with an anchor dayfor that that's funny. Well, yeah,
I have, you know, becauseit drops the fuck every like third
word. I mean. Well,they released an updated version of it called
(43:07):
flipped with a sausage. It justmakes it even more funny. It's like
better, but they made it morekid friendly basically, so instead of,
you know, we shoved inside ofhis big fucking rs and they just say
(43:28):
so, we took our anchor bythe light of the stars and we donated
to a children's charity. But actuallyjumping the line got me in big trouble
too. In Vegas one time clearedout Ellis Island Casino in a two congo
(43:54):
line. I got on the microphonesand said, this is fucking awesome,
and you can't curse on the microphone. Oh my gosh. I'm from the
Northwest. We curse all the timeon the microphones. I I guess I
(44:14):
didn't realize that people are that offended. Yeah, I offended by words,
especially when they're just like they don'teven like me anything anymore because you use
them so often. Uh yeah,who just somebody just texted me mm hmm,
(44:37):
call the party off due to illness. I have no idea what party
and let's talk about tomorrow. Idon't know I called the party off due
to illness. Fuck, I don'tknow who the hell that was. Okay,
all right, I'm they're trying toget everybody. See I've had COVID
three times already. Really, I'mstill s girl. I have defeated COVID
(45:02):
three times. Well you gotta remember. You got to remember I not only
work with John Q public in apharmacy, I also reade public transit every
day. Okay, So yeah,you're right in the line of fire all
(45:22):
the time. Mm hmmm. Ye. So back back to back to what
we're supposed to be talking about here, because we just kind of went off
the rails a little bit. Havea script so we don't have any questions.
We have a track back on track. So you saw me holding this
little piece of paper here, right, Uh no, but I do now,

of paper with these numbers right here. Ah, I have launched my own
line of official washing Craft root talkMead, mead honeyway, yes, oh
(48:22):
okay, that is what I've spenton supplies already. Oh yeah, I'm
actually I'm actually gonna get a holdof my brother here. As soon as
we're done here, we're gonna we'regonna start this new batch today. So
how long does mead take to brew? Like, how what's the process the
(48:45):
difference between that and like growing here? So meat is basically wined. Okay,
so money right, yeah, andI've got three, four or five
pounds honey, do you buy itor do you like I bought. I
(49:07):
bought two pounds of it off Amazon, and I bought or three pounds off
of the from New Season's Market herein Vancouver. Okay. It's wild flower,
BlackBerry, wildflower honey. Okay,but we were going to also add
blackberries to it. That sounds delicious. But typically it takes about a month
(49:32):
too. In the carboy, youhave to gass it because if you ask
Goyanka, she'll tell you that acarbonated mead no go. Because I brought
one with me last year to NewYork and it was horrible. But it
could take anywhere from a month tohow long and then you have to bottle
(49:55):
it. And then the bottling,you know, that's another month or however
long. So it could take upto three, four or five six months,
however long. I want to howstrongly one right because it's brewed black
wine. More it's okay, goschaand thank god. Okay, So back
(50:19):
to have you had any have youheard from anybody in Vegas? Because I
know there's a lot of people inVegas. There's a lot I know.

(58:20):
two people meeting, just hanging out. You know, these are my kind
of my favorite kinds of interview.It's just you know, just hanging out
talking, just shooting the ship.Dare I, Dare I? Do it
dare where you do? What?Gentleman Jack? Oh, gentleman Jack.
