Rogue Bunnies Mayhem

Bunnies & Rockers: A Family Affair (It is For Miss September 2009)

The shows continue from last month's Rogue Bunnies Party, from the Las Vegas Verona Sky Villa at the Westgate Resort & Casino. We sat down with Playboy's perfect couple, Miss Kimberly Phillips and musician Todd Morse, best known for his bass work in The Offspring. 
We were in "full party mode" when this episode started and the fun began immediately. We start off asking the Morse's about their recent move to Vegas which then turns to Jenn and Kimberly discussing motherhood. Kim and Todd talk about bringing their daughters to Todd's shows, he's in numerous bands, and if they ask for anything in particular, when it comes to daddy's band rider. Brian talks to Todd about playing The Mansion on New Year's Eve and Todd mentions Hef's musical request. Speaking of Todd's bands, he'll be out on the road with The Offspring this summer. For all the dates and venues, check out offspring.com/tour
As Todd says, "let's not make this all about me" so Brian asks Kimberly and Jenn about their time at The Bunny House. The two were roomies for a while at the Playboy "Sorority House". As much fun as we had, there's a nice conversation about one of Todd's bandmates, Jason Womack from Petty Cash, who's fighting the cancer battle. There was an awesome event, earlier this year, to raise money for Jason and the fundraising continues. If you'd like to help, visit gofundme.com/f/go-for-wo. 
We had so much fun reminiscing with these two old friends and can't wait to see them on the road this summer, with Jimmy Eat World and New Found Glory. When you go see this great Summer Tour, look for the Morse's daughters. They'll be the cute ones on the side of the stage wearing giant headphones. For all of Todd's other projects, follow @toddsplanet on Instagram. More party episodes are coming so stay tuned...And the Mayhem continues! 🤟

Karen McDougal Is One Bad Mermaid

Our first show from last month's Rogue Bunnies Party at the Westgate's Verona Sky Villa, in Las Vegas, is none other than the Playmate of the Year for 1998, Miss Karen McDougal.
Karen is co-owner of a great new energy drink called Bad Mermaid, one of the many fantastic sponsors from the Rogue Bunny party. Joining Karen is the founder and CEO of Bad Mermaid, Dan Dixon. The two talk about how they got connected and what makes Bad Mermaid such a unique energy drink. Dan shares the story of how he came up with the name Bad Mermaid thanks to his son and a video game. At last month's party, Bad Mermaid COO Alex Enriquez created four specialty cocktails using the four different flavors of Bad Mermaid. Have no fear, Brian does get the recipes. If you want to know more about Bad Mermaid, check out https://www.badmermaid.com/.
Jenn, Brian and Karen do some reminiscing about their days up at The Mansion. The three talk about their favorite thing to order from the "kitchen that had it all". Karen and Jenn also discuss the Rogue Bunny journey, as Karen was one of the first on-board when Victoria launched. 
It was an epic night in Vegas and we can't thank Karen, Dan and Alex enough. Their cocktail creations were a huge hit and it had a lot to do with the stellar taste of Bad Mermaid...And the Mayhem continues! 🤟

Jennifer Walcott Is Definitely Unfiltered

Jennifer Walcott Archuleta has quite the amazing story that led her to becoming Miss August 2001, a mother of three, wife of former NFL star, Adam Archuleta, and successful advocate.  
Jennifer didn’t have the easiest childhood. She compares going to school to the Michelle Pfeiffer movie Dangerous Minds, which made her the tough cookie she is today. She has a great story about the first Playboy party she “crashed” and her encounter with Mr. Hefner or “her guardian angel in the purple robe”. 
Jennifer is definitely spinning a lot of plates. She recently started her own podcast called Unfiltered with Jen Archuleta. Jen tells us all about her plans for that show and her first guest is a special one. Here’s a hint. His name was already mentioned. Jen also does some amazing advocacy work. The organization she co-found, The Forever Angles, is helping people “one at a time”. For more information about that incredible project, please visit theforeverangels.com. 
After you listen to this episode, you’ll understand what an amazing woman Miss August 2001 really is. We can’t wait to get her back on the show, maybe even be a guest on her new podcast. (wink wink) Given everything she’s accomplished in her life, we know it’ll be a hit. For everything else that’s “Jen”, visit jenarchuleta.com...And the Mayhem continues! 🤟

Metal Health Goes To The Top, Working With Ozzy & Rudy Sarzo's Faith

Legendary rock bassist Rudy Sarzo is back for more. Last episode was all about his childhood, growing up in Cuba and coming to America as a young teen. This one is all about the music and Rudy has done a lot of that!
Rudy begins part 2 talking about his early days in music, playing Latin music back in Florida. Rudy describes hearing this new kind of music coming over from the UK, and it wasn’t The British Invasion, this was darker and heavier. It was the beginning of what would be called Heavy Metal, with bands like Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple and a man who Rudy would later work with, Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath. Rudy remembers how Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne took him in. After playing with Ozzy, and his good friend, the late Randy Rhoads, Rudy was asked to play on Quiet Riot’s record Metal Health. That record has only sold over 10 million copies worldwide. If you haven’t heard of that record, maybe you remember “Cum On Feel The Noise”, one of the top songs of 1983. In great detail, Rudy recollects what life was like on the road and the demand that a number one record puts on a band.
There are great stories about legendary artists. He’s played with so many of rock’s best. The best line is when Victoria asks Rudy if he took pictures during his 40 years rock. Speaking of Victoria, her rendition of “Cum On Feel The Noise” might be better than the original. Rudy is also very open about his relationship with God and how that has always been the most important thing to him, other than family. 
Brain asks Rudy about playing one last time with his old friend Ozzy Osbourne. One show. July 5th in England. “Back To The Beginning”. It’s a star-studded night jam packed with musical icons. For more information, visit www.ozzy.com. All profits going to various charities. We’re definitely going to have Rudy back so we can hear the stories about that amazing upcoming show...And the Mayhem continues! 🤟
 

Legendary Rock Bassist Rudy Sarzo's Journey To #1

He’s been a musician for over 50 years. He’s played with just about everyone in the rock genre, as you’ll hear Brian list his accomplishments. He’s one of the most respected and beloved bassists. His story is amazing. This week we welcome the legendary Rudy Sarzo.
This episode feels like a classic issue of Playboy, minus the pictorials. We’ve got Playmates, Miss January 96 and Miss March 09, we’ve got music, there’s some politics, religion, pop culture and lots of humor. Before we get into Rudy’s incredible journey to the top of the music charts, Brian asks Rudy about his involvement with “Rock’n’Roll Fantasy Camp”. Rudy has been super busy lately, as you’ll hear, but gives a great description of what the camp entails. If you ever want to get a great gift for the music fan in your life, you should check out rockcamp.com. 
Rudy grew up in Havana, Cuba in the 1950’s. Remember the name Fidel Castro? Rudy was there at the start of the revolution on January 1st, 1959. Rudy even tells us the depiction of that event, in The Godfather II, was pretty accurate. He watched it from his window. Rudy’s family got out in 1961, and ended up in Florida before moving to New Jersey, which gets a “heeey” from Jenn. Rudy had just turned 13 when President Kennedy was assassinated and gives details about what life was like for the Holidays in 1963. Then, just a few months later, Rudy along with most of America, was struck by the music thunderbolt, The Beatles appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show. Rudy’s life was forever changed as you’ll hear in Part 2 with our favorite bassist so you’ll just have to tune in. Get ready for some Metal Health...And the Mayhem continues! 🤟

Time To Get Funni About Bunni Munni

Victoria and Jenn share the hosting duties this week as we welcome two new members to the Rogue Bunnies team, Jason Rindhal and Omar Shands from Coin Theaters. 
Recently, Rogue Bunnies launched something called "Bunni Munni". This episode will help you understand everything you need to know about this project. Jason & Omar do a great job of answering Victoria and Jenn's questions about the differences between Web2 and Web3, what are experiential tokens and mim tokens, and how to avoid the scammers in the crypto space. They also give an explanation of the President's token (there's NOTHING political). 
The four then discuss some of the exciting projects that are in development for Rogue Bunnies, like Mansion Society and a possible Rogue Bunnies Marketplace. There's plenty of Playboy talk too. Jenn and Victoria ask the guys about their first encounter with the magazine and who are some of their all-time favorites, other than the two hosts, of course. Victoria laments about the collection that she had. Yes, past tense. 
There's a lot to learn about this booming sector so give it a listen and start gearing up for the future, because it's coming...And the Mayhem continues!🤟
 

Jessica Hall: The Woman Of Many Talents (and Playboy Stories)

This show could’ve been a few hours and we still wouldn’t have gotten to all of Jessica Hall’s stories. Never an official Playmate of the Month, Jessica has been featured in Playboy numerous times, most notably as Cyber Girl of the Week in 2005. 
Everyone knows Jessica Hall. She’s an actress, reality TV star, host of numerous TV and radio shows, writer, social media influencer and mother of two. Jessica tells Brian and Jenn that her success wouldn’t be possible if it weren’t for Playboy and Hugh Hefner. It’s because of Playboy that she met Kendra Wilkinson, her best friend of almost 20 years. Jessica probably won’t admit it but her toughest role would have had to have been playing “Jessica Hall” on 6 seasons of Kendra On Top. 
Jessica recalls her first trip to the Playboy Mansion, back when she was 18, and her first encounter with Hef. Jessica has a great story about turning down Hef’s advances and worrying that her time with Playboy would be over. Instead, Hef insisted that Jessica bring her then boyfriend (now husband) to The Mansion. As Jessica says, “Hef loved love”. Jessica and Jenn talk about the great sisterhood that all of the women of Playboy have. Many of Jess’s other friends have come from her time at Playboy. There’s also a great discussion about motherhood and when is the right time to tell your young children about your past. Neither Jenn or Jess have told their kids that they “graced the pages” of Playboy. 
Jessica will be back. She’s too much fun not to have as a guest again. Maybe we can chip more into her memory bank because 30 minutes was definitely not enough...And the Mayhem continues! 🤟
