Summary

In this episode we talk about the A&E documentary Secrets of Playboy which chronicles Hugh Hefner's decades long rule over the Playboy empire. Contrary to the popular belief that it was an iconic American institution, the Playboy franchise was a dark and disturbing world. The documentary features dozens of former girlfriends, "playmates" and employees who talk about what really went on at the Playboy mansion and private clubs. We also talk about Hefner's former girlfriends Holly Madison and Bridget Marquardt's podcast Girls Next Level where they don't hold back and tell us exactly what went on inside the Playboy mansion.
