The Butler Did it - My Wild Night at Playboy Mansion

from The Opperman Report' · host The Opperman Report

The Playboy Mansion in the 1980s was in its absolute heyday. The sexual revolution had come full flower, drugs were largely regarded as harmless fun and every night offered a new adventure to a young man who'd never experienced anything like it.  The Playboy Mansion of the 1980s belonged to a different world.The rules were different.The expectations were different.What people considered daring, outrageous, or perfectly normal would raise eyebrows today.That’s part of what makes it worth revisiting.Recently, the Mansion and Hugh Hefner have been the subject of criticism and controversy.I don’t dismiss anyone who had a negative experience there.But what I saw during my five years inside those gates was something more complicated — and far more interesting.Most of the people I knew from that time remember it with a certain affection.This book shows you why.INSIDE THE BOOK• What did the Playboy Mansion feel like after the parties ended and the house finally went quiet?• What were the Playmates really like when the cameras were gone?• What was the strangest request I ever received during a 3 AM shift?• Which famous star asked me to steal a bottle of top-shelf liquor… and then took me on a wild midnight ride through the streets of Los Angeles?• Which movie star’s wife begged me to keep her company in the Grotto?• What really happened after 2 A.M.• The night the Playmates cried.• And the night that changed my life forever.I’ll be interviewing guests and Playmates who were there at the time, and I’ll illustrate my memories with exclusive photos, memos and personal notes that have never been published anywhere.It’s 3:00 in the morning at the Playboy Mansion.The party is over.The celebrities have disappeared into guest rooms.A few Playmates wander into the butler’s pantry, looking for company.And the strangest part of the night is just beginning.I spent five years working the night shift inside the most famous house in America.My job was to provide Hefner and his guests whatever they asked for.And as the hour grew later… the requests grew stranger.I’m turning those nights into a book right now.And this campaign is what determines whether it gets made the way it deserves to be.KickstarterInstagramRedditBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.
