After almost a year and a half of doing this podcast, and hearing all of our Family's great stories, we thought it was time to share how Victoria Fuller, Jennifer Pershing and Brain Olea got to The Mansion!

Victoria Fuller never thought she'd make it to the gatefold of Playboy Magazine. She was turned down a few years before gracing the issue and you'll have to hear why. That wasn't her only setback. Playboy had intended to make her Playmate of the Month for January '95 but pushed her back a full year. As Victoria remembered thinking, "a lot can happen in a year". Luckily, Playboy made the wise decision and kept her right where she was and will forever be, Miss January '96! However, she wasn't the only Victoria in '96. Our Victoria and Brian share some great stories about the ever-popular Victoria Silvstedt. 

Jennifer Pershing is big on manifestation. She always knew that she was going to be famous but it could have been her daily "mantra" that got her onto the centerfold of the March 2009 issue of Playboy. Or, it might have been the numerous Monday Steel Panther shows, at the Key Club in Los Angeles, that got people's attention. She tells us that Jersey Girls were known for the act that got her noticed. You'll have to listen to what she did because we're not giving away that nugget. 

Finally, Brian Olea always wanted to be a musician. It was that path that started his journey to Hef's House. While attending broadcasting school and in need of some money, Brian met a guy that would change the trajectory of his life, although he didn't believe it at first. All it took was working one party for The Mansion staff to realize that Brian was destined to be a Playboy employee, which he was for over 20 years. Brian loves being a part of the Playboy Family and you'll hear that it was definitely reciprocated. 

We have so much fun doing this show. We hope you enjoy going inside, around and through the Playboy Life with us too. As Brian says, "it was pretty dang magical"...And the Mayhem continues! 🤟
