17. Are you related to Ralph Malph from Happy Days? You sure do look a lot like him!
He's part of the extended Ginger Kid family. We use to eat lunch together when Cartman banned us from the cafeteria. |

Okay I'm landed and ready to finish this up. : )
18. You've been in the industry a long time. What do you think about the state of the industry? I started the thread a year and a half ago “Are We Working For a Dying Industry” … I kinda want to bump it now that the new 2257 regs are out. ; ) But seriously I think this is the year of business. I think people are done with the games, the shows, everything that doesn’t make them money. I think you will see a lot more small companies close shop and sell to big companies this coming year, I think a lot of the people that carry themselves on personality alone will find themselves hurting. The industry is hard right now with everyone and their brother running an affiliate program, there is more leased content to choose from at $1/GB, and there are more sales reps than people know what to do with. I know everyone has always worked for money, but now you have to work for it harder, and the good ones will prevail. |
Two questions back to back ...
19. What the fuck does Yappo stand for? We get this question all the time, and it means absolutely nothing. When I first got the job I refused to market a product called Yappo, but after about a week there, I gave in to Kevin and realized that this would actually be beneficial for us. With us coming into the VOD game when AEBN, HotMovies and others have a good part of the market, we had to use something to stand out. People are gonna remember Yappo way more than AdultMovieCinema, which was our first URL for this project. |
20. Can you post your econopass photo for the bus system please?
No, no I can’t … first of all I don’t have it, second of all if you post the picture Alli, the video comes out! But to give you a story on this, I was fat after my freshman year in college, I gained four people’s freshman 15. And for some reason my freshman year I just didn’t think I needed to go to class. I thought I could just pass, well I was wrong. So after my freshman year, the University of Arizona sent me a nice letter stating I was disqualified after my stellar .714 GPA. So I had to go to a different college for one year and get a 3.0 and I could re-apply to get back in, oh and I couldn’t be in the Atmospheric Sciences program anymore. So, I went to a community college and got a 3.5 and grew up a bit. Well, during that time I had no car, so I was forced to take the bus. And let me tell you, the Tucson bus system, otherwise known as the Sun Tran, not so fun. I want to write a book called “Tales From the Bus Stop.” I was pushed out of the back during a fight once, sang to, offered my first tamale that was half eaten and the list goes on. So since I was in college and poor, I was able to get the Economy Pass or EconoPass for $28/month, unlimited transportation. You have to get your picture taken for it and so since it’s always hot in Tucson I was wearing a tank top. Well, the picture comes out and it looks like I’m not wearing a shirt and my face was all smooshed back and I was fat, so I just look hideous. And thanks to my good friend Alli, I will never live it down. By the way, I went back to the University and still graduated in four years with a degree in Retail and Consumer Sciences. |
21. Outside of Top Bucks and your marriage, who in the industry do you trust the most?
That’s a hard question because I tend to trust people and then months later I find out something … just happened to me recently by someone I thought was a good friend. I probably trust Jay the most, he’s just Jay and I can tell him anything and know it goes in the vault. Business wise, I probably trust Mike from VideoBox the most, he’s a very honest, stand-up guy. Seriously though, Mike and I have recently started doing a lot of business together and I can tell it’s gonna be a long, profitable relationship. |
22. You acquired some of the most exclusive content for Yappo. What content was this and how did you get it?
We gained Mayors, Twistys, TastyDollars, FlashCash (Tramp Stamp Studios) and some others, but Twistys is the most exclusive to VOD. I had started talking to them one day to show them how to optimize their 401 traffic and I had inquired about gaining their content. Twistys has one of the most recognizable brands and some of the hottest ladies; it was a good score for us. It also started putting us on the map to gain other affiliate program’s content. It’s always been a pleasure doing business with Shap and Kevin; these are guys who know their stuff. They just get it and I like that. |
To answer Alli's questions ...
1. I eat a bowl of microphones every day for breakfast. 2. Yappo is the best unlaunched VOD program because we have been able to take an unlaunched website and get into launched members areas, launched exits, having launched-like ratios with launched like profits. |

23. Your married to Chris, more commonly called "The Doc". How did you meet him and why did you fall in love with him?
I had started working for them and moved up to Vegas, so when I had to go and meet Chris for the first time and get my apartment, etc my sister came with. She said we’d be together and I called her crazy, Chris had a bitch of a girlfriend at the time. I mean bitch, she could kill me with her looks. So we would talk a lot and we really go to know each other, well to finish up college I had him do this website for me for my independent study it was all I had left to finish and I was just sick of school by that time. So he had finished it and sent it over to me, well when he did that I was intoxicated and made some comment about how to thank him for this. Hehe … so at that point we started talking on ICQ about us, ICQ because he still had the bitch of a girlfriend. So a week later or so was Alli’s birthday and I was flying up to Seattle to celebrate it with her. So Chris out of the blue decided to join me and go up there, cool no problem. But then Platinum Becky or Platinum Sketchy somehow got invited (not by Chris or myself or Alli) but she was there. So Chris and I stayed at the Westin there and we had two beds, I can’t remember why he stayed in my room but I think he had to. So on the flight up there we bumped to first class and got hammered, more feelings started coming out and by the time we were off the flight we pretty much knew. But he still had a girlfriend too. So that night we take Alli out for her birthday and Scott from SexTracker and Sketchy had joined us. So that night we went back to the hotel and mind you, Becky had her OWN ROOM IN THE SAME HOTEL, and somehow ends up crashing in my other bed that was allocated for Chris. So he slept in my bed, no sex happened but I think I got some good oral. That secured it for me. : ) But the best part is, the next day Sketch wakes up and rolls over and goes “Ugh, where’s the water.” She’s not hot at all in the morning, on top of that she left her face on the pillow. Seriously. So we left Seattle and he got back and packed his bitch up and drove her back to Texas and drove 18 hours straight back to Vegas to start us. About a week later was the Negril trip, Chris was suppose to go but I messed up his flight, I booked it for exactly one month later. We ended up talking on the phone a lot over the trip. When I got back, it was official and we’ve been together since. Four years married and two kids … Couldn’t ask for anything more. |
Oh Jamaica...THE MEMORIES!!! Kristin you are an awesome gal. Cheers.

24. When at adult conventions you tend to be treated like "one of the boys". Has this helped your career or hurt it?
This has 99% of the time helped my career. I don’t like people to think that I’m just some girl who is trying to gain sales by showing my boobs or flirting. I like people to know that I do actually know the business very well. I mean I’ve shown my boobs, but just not for sales. ; ) |
Very nice interview and damn...you are married to TheDoc? One of the very very few guys I enjoy his posts. thumbsup

25. You're an educated lady. What do you have an MBA in?
I have two MBA’s … E-Business and Marketing. I found one day that after being out of college for two years that I needed to use my brain more, so I started looking into grad schools. I chose University of Phoenix, and while some think it’s not the best place, it really was a good school and I learned a lot. The thing that drew me the most to it was the fact it was online. I took online courses during my undergrad and I loved it, so this format for my graduate work was perfect considering my job and family. |

And can someone explain to me why we have a show in Vegas and a show in Florida, nearly back to back, in the middle of Summer? And then explain to me why we don't have a show in Hawaii in December..... Our industry is growing tired of the parties, and as our industry matures reputations and the fact that you can party like a rock star mean a lot less. |
back to work babe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

26. Has your MBA helped you in the adult industry? Do you think your smarter the rest of us?
I don’t ever think I’m smarter than anyone, well unless you prove your stupidity. My manager hears me scream a lot “You can’t be this dumb!” And I’m usually referring to some sheep that’s just an idiot, but that has nothing to do with the fact I have many years of education. The MBA has helped in the industry especially with Yappo because we are seeing it through its entire process. We got Yappo when it was just a website and from there we changed Yappo many a times, created an affiliate program, and are continuing to grow in sales, team members, and as a competitor in the VOD market. |
Hey Kristin :0 It's Lori from the Anna's birthday party last month. well almost two months now I guess. We still gotta get together. :)

27. Do you ever think you'll leave the safety net of Topbucks and Evil Genius Cash? If so, who would you see yourself working for?
Honestly, I don’t even see myself going to back to EGC, it doesn’t need me. And unless Kevin cans me, TopBucks is pretty much stuck with me this time. I get offers a lot, but I really do only see myself working for TB. |
So Sly wanted one of those stories … here goes.
We were taking my sister to college, which was about 1.5 hours away, and you could either take the back way or the highway, we chose to take the back way. Well, my dad had filled up his truck with her shit and he and my mom drove ahead of my sister and I in another car. Well, as we are driving, we start to see the mattress and box spring starting to flop around. We attempted to get my dad’s attention but he being the same type jackass I am just waves like he is in a parade. Well we really start to notice it flop around and then all of sudden up in the air goes the box spring, flies off and lands in the middle of the road right in front of the car we are in. So I get out grab the box spring and bring it over to the side of the road and stay with it while my sister drives off and tries to catch up to my dad who has no idea this has happened. Well, since he’s driving miles ahead of us, the mattress had also dropped a bit and began to drag on the road, thus creating sparks and a mattress fire. Well, my dad finally realizes this, pulls over and takes the mattress off the truck and puts the fire out with his hands. Little did he think that if a mattress starts on fire you just let it burn. So he puts it back on the truck all fire out and starts driving, well it starts up again only burning more of Jenn’s furniture and stuff. So he notices and just pulls it off the truck and lets it burn, by this time Jenn is all caught up but I’m still miles back on the side of the road looking like a 15 year old prostitute to go with my box spring. So some guy pulls over and asks if I need help, I passed because I have no idea who this guy is, turns out he is a volunteer fire fighter. So all said and done, she was out of a mattress and some furniture, but it’s worth it for this story. |

28. In college you had a beautiful room mate. Who was it and did you shower together?
She is Allison, we were roommates for a year and then she graduated and went to work in porn. No shower scene, sorry. Oddly though, she got me my second roommate to finish out my senior year with. Alli was a Spanish Linguists major as was this guy Dan who was in a bunch of her classes. Well one day Dan looked pretty rough, like hasn’t slept so Alli inquires and he had been sleeping in his truck because his girlfriend kicked him out. Who I met months later and she was a bitch anyways. So Dan came over and we hung out and got to know each other, and Alli and I let him sleep on our couch until she moved out. I remember one time he came home wasted and made me watch scrambled porn on channel 96, that was my first exposure to porn. I hated it … it was retarded; I mean seriously who gets fucked on a urinal? |

29. You've only worked for two companies in the industry – Evil Genius Cash and Top Bucks. Why do you keep flip flopping between the two of them?
For many reasons I’ve already stated above I think that if I tell this story it will be a big repeat. But to sum up, TopBucks, first gig, went to BigCockContent, made them money to start EGC, got pregnant went back and sold PluginFeeds, left there to go back to EGC, then new VOD department and wanted a new challenge. |
How does it feel to be the only webmaster to have had Uncle Willy(RIP) dance naked at your wedding? That's one to tell the kids about, just don't show them the pics.

30. What hobbies to do you have?
I have kids so hobbies don’t happen so often … But I like to smoke, golf, smoke while golfing, ski, smoke while skiing, read, shop, and travel. |

31. Who is the father of your first son? And are you sure about that?
At that time I got pregnant I was only sleeping with one person, actually I don’t think I’ve ever actually had sex with two people at the same time for a period of time. But, Chris is and yes I’m positive about that. |
32. Your good friends with Tanker. Have you ever seen him naked, and is he really as well hung as we are led to believe?
Yes, and like a Coke Can. : ) |
