Actor/comedian Matt Hobby (Young Sheldon) stops by the Rock & Roll RV as entrepreneur Kai Fanning to pitch his bizarre luxury compound, Stay Living—a place that promises to be Safe, Thrilling, Affordable… and You Never Leave.


Geoff and Whisp dig into Kai Fanning’s plans for:

  • Muscle-bound Bichon Frises patrolling behind barbed-wire fences
  • An 800-lane bowling alley and four-story arcade
  • A Riverboat Casino (pending Val Verde’s mysterious ballot measure S7A43)
  • Raising Cane’s chicken fingers as the official food of the complex
  • And the true meaning behind “You Never Leave”


Also, Sharon Stone gossip, Gordon Ramsay’s lost reality show Hell Nightmare, the forgotten ’90s Jeremy Piven film Asshouse, David Lee Roth’s cryptocurrency empire, why Whisp will never fund a GoFundMe, and even the mysterious identity of El Fornado.
