  But Hannah is an adult store that we work at.
• 0:35
  Yeah, and it's called Adult Bookstore, which there are no more books.
• 0:39
  There are no more books there. No, the internet has taken over.
• 0:42
  Oh, and then it became an adult video store, but there's no more videos.
• 0:45
  There's no more videos. And then we were selling DVDs, but there are no more DVDs. No more, no more.
• 0:51
  So no more movies. Just movies playing on television, mainly porn, everywhere.
• 0:57
  Gate porn. Gay porn everywhere.
• 0:59
  We used to have different kinds of porn. Yes. But the guys are the ones that
• 1:05
  are mainly, the ones that are there and want to see porn.
• 1:11
  It's mainly, the club is mainly gay.
• 1:14
  The club is kind of an exaggeration. It's really, it's a retail store.
• 1:20
  With a two-story funhouse attached to it that has like 40 glory hole rooms.
• 1:29
  40 or 50. It has a room called the ramp room, which we nicknamed the milking station.
• 1:34
  The milking station. Because it has two levels. If you stand on the top level,
• 1:39
  it puts you at a certain height where your crotch is right at somebody's eye level.
• 1:46
  And then they are able to perform certain tasks for you.
• 1:50
  As you watch your favorite movie on the screens. And it's like a long ramp.
• 1:56
  It's a milking station. It's a milking station, except there's no milk.
• 2:00
  It's made for the older people because the older people find it difficult to
• 2:05
  kneel in the glory hole rooms. Yeah. Because kneeling doesn't happen after 50.
• 2:09
  Not for a long amount of time.
• 2:10
  No, and when you can't get up, it's a mess.
• 2:14
  We were going to sell knee pads, but we decided, nah. Nah, they can bring their own.
• 2:18
  I've seen people bring their own And we built a milking station There's also
• 2:23
  a dark room It's pitch black, you cannot see Your hand in front of your face
• 2:29
  And you go into that area And,
• 2:31
  you have to reach around Blindly and it's kind of fun It's kind of sexy,
• 2:35
  the idea is that You have to kind of touch Other people to see where they are
• 2:40
  in the room Which can be fun And it can lead to other things And then there's
• 2:44
  video viewing rooms Oh yeah,
• 2:47
  Oh, yeah, I don't need these. There's video viewing rooms. And then we sell, the store is so cute.
• 2:54
  We have dildos. Yeah, these are the adult toys.
• 2:59
  We have vibrators. Vibrators. We have milkers, they're called.
• 3:05
  They're handheld devices for pumping things. Oh, yeah.
• 3:10
  Yeah, that's right. What are they called?
• 3:14
  Milkers or, let me see.
• 3:19
  It's, oh, my God. There are some advices for the pleasure. I forgot.
• 3:22
  Remember, there was a thing called the rose. We have some female stuff.
• 3:25
  The rose, that is a stimulator for the clitoris. And it looks like a rose, but it doesn't work.
• 3:34
  You tried it? Yeah, but it didn't work. She was like, come on,
• 3:37
  and it wasn't doing anything. Yeah, it didn't do anything. You know,
• 3:41
  some people are partial to toys, some people aren't. I don't know.
• 3:44
  Hey, what's your opinion about that?
• 3:46
  Yeah, let us know. We have, the thing is, the quality of silicone has improved
• 3:51
  so dramatically that some of the dildos are coming in and they're like lifelike.
• 3:57
  And I swear, it appears, it feels as though they're covered in flesh and you
• 4:03
  can see the veins and everything underneath the flesh. It's pretty cool. It's pretty dramatic.
• 4:09
  And then some of them have a formula that you fill them up with,
• 4:15
  and they will start to squirt, squirt, squirt, squirt. Yeah.
• 4:19
  Some of them are mechanical. They expand and contract mechanically.
• 4:25
  Or they open, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
• 4:29
  Then we have the hand and the fist. Oh, yeah.
• 4:33
  It's a simulated hand. Yeah. In case you're into getting, boom, boom.
• 4:37
  And then, oh, there's plugs, there's douchies. There's a prostate stimulator.
• 4:45
  Yes, Dr. Johnson. And, oh, shout out. Yeah, we have handcuffs, blindfolds.
• 4:52
  We have strap-ons. Oh, yeah, for the ladies. For the ladies.
• 4:58
  Or for the men that are not so well endowed.
• 5:01
  Or there's a lot of straight couples where the man is into anal stimulation
• 5:06
  and his female partner will put the strap on and go to town on him.
• 5:12
  And doggy, doggy, doggy. Doggy, doggy. Ruff, ruff, ruff, ruff, ruff.
• 5:17
  And we get clients all throughout the day.
• 5:21
  It's kind of funny. We have in the afternoons, we usually get elderly gentlemen,
• 5:27
  because we are right down the street from several nursing homes.
• 5:30
  And I guess that's how they take their...
• 5:32
  You think they come from the nursing homes? One or two of them does that. Really?
• 5:35
  Most of them don't, though. They have their own homes. And quite a few of them
• 5:40
  are in really good shape. They're very athletic.
• 5:43
  And then we get, of course, also at the same time, a lot of people taking a
• 5:48
  break from their job. Construction workers, truck drivers, UPS drivers.
• 5:56
  Yeah, different kinds of lawyers, doctors. Yeah, surgeons.
• 6:02
  And they need stress really. Yes, so they go back to work and they're relaxed.
• 6:11
  Yes. I think, yeah, remember back in the 70s or 80s, was it,
• 6:15
  when there was that postal worker that opened fire because he was so stressed and upset with his job?
• 6:21
  I think had he gone to a store like ours and believed that stress,
• 6:27
  perhaps that incident wouldn't have happened. Although,
• 6:30
  It was a terrifying incident, and I don't want to make light of it.
• 6:32
  No, no, no, definitely not.
• 6:34
  But, oh, you guys, I think it's needed today more than ever.
• 6:39
  I mean, some people look at a place like that and think, like, that is Satan's work.
• 6:45
  But honestly, I mean. No, I think it's the work of the gods. It's a stress relief.
• 6:52
  Especially now with all the emotions tied into everything going on.
• 6:58
  Oh, yeah. You watch one news cycle and you're like, oh, my God,
• 7:02
  everything is going to be. Yeah.
• 7:05
  I mean, I was on my way to the dentist today and my Uber drivers,
• 7:10
  both of them, were so stressed from the politics that are going on and then
• 7:17
  all the fear that's going on.
• 7:20
  And they were both Latinos. Yeah. So they're dealing with more additional.
• 7:25
  Yeah. That's an icy reality.
• 7:28
  Unintended yeah right the bottom line is um people need stress relief and you know.
• 7:36
  Let's be realistic orgasms are incredibly
• 7:41
  good at releasing stress from the body absolutely i mean can you think of a
• 7:46
  better way to get stress out of your system than to have a glorious, hypnotic,
• 7:52
  extreme orgasm.
• 7:55
  And then your body is just spent.
• 7:57
  Whoosh. Yeah. It's just a wonderful way.
• 7:59
  Glorious. Yeah, glorious. Glorious. And, um...
• 8:04
  Yeah, so that's why this place exists, it's for that kind of entertainment.
• 8:08
  And, yeah, it's not everybody's cup of tea, but just because it's not your cup
• 8:12
  of tea, I don't think you should point fingers at it and, "'Down,
• 8:15
  let it be shut down, because it's not a Christian place!' It's like,
• 8:18
  oh, come on. Yeah, and not only that, but it's a safe place.
• 8:23
  It's a safe place because before, you know, back in the day when we were youths.
• 8:31
  The boys would go into parks or alleyways, public bathrooms, yeah. And,
• 8:38
  it would lend itself to getting attacked. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 8:42
  And also nowadays, with all of those apps where you can locate people,
• 8:48
  a lot of the times what I noticed on the apps is that people will invite someone
• 8:54
  to their house purely from the app.
• 8:57
  Yeah. And or their apartment. And to me, it would be safer to meet in a public place.
• 9:02
  We have security and it's very
• 9:04
  clean. We clean it thoroughly with intense like bleach. Just clean it.
• 9:10
  Yeah. Clean that place up. But yeah. And then there's other people there.
• 9:13
  And then we have a lounge area where you can just sit down and enjoy watching videos that we make.
• 9:18
  Yes. So, you know, we have seven hours of short videos that we have created
• 9:23
  ourselves, and they sit there and they watch those.
• 9:25
  Yeah, and they have fun watching it because they take a break from the exotic stuff.
• 9:35
  Yeah, it's like a little break from all cruising.
• 9:38
  Think of a coral reef. You know how the fish swim all around the coral reef looking for food?
• 9:44
  And then as soon as something pops its head up there's a feeding frenzy and
• 9:48
  then when they're done it goes back to them swimming around the coral it's kind
• 9:52
  of like that's kind of like that on a week on like a Friday Saturday night it's
• 9:55
  kind of like that yeah because you know um,
• 9:58
  There can be a lot of people showing up at once, and there will be,
• 10:03
  you'll see, like, a sudden feeding frenzy, we'll call it, where a group of people
• 10:08
  get into it, and it's kind of really hot.
• 10:11
  And then, you know, things happen, situations climax, and then everybody goes
• 10:15
  back to just walking around, circulating, sitting down, cruising.
• 10:19
  Yeah, the crazy— Fascinating, guys. It's fascinating. The crazy times are,
• 10:23
  like, during, like, IML and market days. Oh, yeah. International Mr.
• 10:28
  Leather. Pride, pride. Oh, yeah.
• 10:31
  Because we get people, I mean, it's Chicago, so we get people from all over,
• 10:36
  the country and all over the world.
• 10:38
  Yeah. Which is really, really amazing. Very cool. Then we get porn stars.
• 10:42
  It's also fascinating to hear from people, like, when they're discussing what the.
• 10:50
  Adult stores and stuff like that are like in their countries. Oh, yeah.
• 10:54
  I mean, some people will come from countries where they don't have anything
• 10:57
  like this. and they're just flattered guys. They're like, wow.
• 11:00
  They're like, ah-ha, ah-ha.
• 11:02
  And then some people come from, especially in Europe, and come from countries
• 11:06
  where this is like commonplace and they're like, oh yeah, this is nobody to us.
• 11:12
  The Europeans are for the course. Yeah.
• 11:15
  So that's kind of a lot of fun. It's a fun place to work as well. Oh yeah. You know?
• 11:20
  That's like my social hour with boys. Yeah.
• 11:24
  It's very fun. It's cool. A lot of people go and they just hang out.
• 11:27
  They just talk. They're like friends with the staff.
• 11:30
  We consider them family, you know.
• 11:34
  Shout out to all the banana customers, banana employees. You know who you are.
• 11:39
  We're not allowed to say their names or anything.
• 11:41
  We are sworn to shikoshik. It's all confidential.
• 11:46
  And your entrance is confidential. Even if, say, you're walking down the street
• 11:50
  and you saw one of the employees walking down the street coming towards you,
• 11:54
  The employees are trained to not look at you and not speak to you unless you
• 11:59
  begin a conversation. Unless you're approached. Otherwise, they'll just pass
• 12:02
  you like they have no idea you exist.
• 12:04
  That way you can remain anonymous.
• 12:08
  Yes. But it's a great place. Again, I think that...
• 12:14
  You make it really difficult for society when the norms sexually are really
• 12:19
  uptight, when the rules are really uptight. And here it's very uptight.
• 12:25
  The U.S. is very uptight about sex. They are. In many ways, they are.
• 12:30
  Yeah, I mean, we talk a lot about the movies, how they can show people getting
• 12:37
  killed or heads being chopped off.
• 12:40
  Or like ordinary television in Southern European countries have no problems
• 12:44
  with nudity, you know, on television at any time, day or night.
• 12:49
  And yet, but they won't show violence, graphic violence. And here it's the reverse
• 12:54
  where graphic violence is okay, but nudity is not.
• 12:57
  It's kind of... That's weird because sexuality is natural.
• 13:01
  Yeah. You know, it's normal. Really, it is.
• 13:05
  And it's unique to everybody, just like a thumbprint, the way everybody feels
• 13:09
  about sexuality, the way their body responds to sex, and what they're into is
• 13:14
  so individual. It really is.
• 13:17
  And I remember coming from the 70s and 80s, like we did, there were categories.
• 13:22
  At first, for decades, there were only two categories, either you're gay or you're straight.
• 13:27
  And then in the 80s, being bi was acceptable. Not acceptable, but be spoken of.
• 13:32
  Spoken of, yeah. And now it's just opened the door because you realize there
• 13:36
  are so many more categories. And categories in itself is just not a good idea
• 13:42
  because it's so unique for everybody.
• 13:45
  Why should we put ourselves in boxes?
• 13:48
  Like I was thinking of, we have a guy that comes in, very, very masculine guy,
• 13:53
  HVAC. He works in HVAC. That's air conditioning and dry ice rock and heating
• 13:58
  and very masculine guy. He's a dude. He's a dude.
• 14:01
  And he likes women and he likes men. Yeah.
• 14:03
  It doesn't matter which one he's going to participate with. Whatever turns him
• 14:08
  on at the moment. But he's very specific. He's very into having his nipples
• 14:12
  played with, you know, and that's his thing.
• 14:15
  We've had—we have—.
• 14:19
  Young men who come in probably between the 80s of 25 and 35,
• 14:26
  and at one point they were born with female genitalia, and then they had a transition,
• 14:31
  and now they are males with a penis and all of that.
• 14:35
  And it's surprising because they all come into the club seeking other men.
• 14:43
  So they went from a female, transitioned into a male, and are now a gay man.
• 14:49
  Which is kind of cool. Yeah, and they're actually beautiful. I mean, they're hunks.
• 14:54
  Some of them are muscular, and they have beards and hairy chest,
• 14:58
  and it's crazy how good-looking they are.
• 15:01
  It's a new era. Yeah.
• 15:07
  I remember when coming out of a club and in the parking lot, I saw a dude...
• 15:15
  What I thought was a dude kneeling in front of another dude who was standing
• 15:18
  up. And, you know, it was obvious that they were, that he was performing oral
• 15:24
  on the other male in the parking lot, hidden in the dark.
• 15:27
  Yeah. And as I got closer, I realized it wasn't two dudes. It was two females.
• 15:33
  No way. Yeah. Really? And I remember sitting there thinking to myself,
• 15:37
  is the angle, like, oh, that's why that angle was that way.
• 15:41
  Because you're not doing this, you're doing something different.
• 15:44
  Well, yeah, because they were just, you know, and I had never seen that public
• 15:50
  of a, you know, demonstration, that public from lesbians.
• 15:56
  They're usually, I saw, the ones that I saw were more private.
• 16:00
  So that was kind of, that was kind of cool.
• 16:02
  Women are getting more. Oh, girl.
• 16:06
  And i remember uh a lesbian couple came in once to our our club,
• 16:12
  and um they paid and they went upstairs and i remember some guys came down they
• 16:17
  were like you should hear there's some women up there and they are hollering like what,
• 16:22
  and they're you know making all sorts of noise and i said yeah because they
• 16:26
  told me they were celebrating your anniversary and they wanted to do something,
• 16:30
  So they went up into a room and they were having fun and the guys were so surprised.
• 16:34
  And I was like, what? Like lesbians don't have loud sex. Come on guys.
• 16:40
  So the thing about working at this place that has been a blessing for us is it's opened our minds.
• 16:50
  To the differences that people have. Oh, definitely. The way that they express
• 16:54
  themselves sexually, what they're interested in, what they're into.
• 16:58
  There's so many differences. Yeah, and our job, too, is to take the taboo away from sexuality.
• 17:06
  Yeah. So, you know, when they come in and asking about the product or the,
• 17:11
  well, any of the products. Or they want to try something that they never tried.
• 17:14
  Yeah, so you explain it to them.
• 17:18
  You can be raunchy or you can be clinical depending on the personality of the people.
• 17:25
  And, you know, I make it fun.
• 17:29
  Yeah. And I'm sure the other guys do, too. You have to make it fun.
• 17:32
  I always think of how funny it is to them when they come in and you're working
• 17:36
  there because it's kind of like, okay, so granny's going to sit you down and
• 17:42
  talk to you today about which kind of vibrating you should go.
• 17:46
  Life with what you're up to what kind of allude to you and have you thought
• 17:49
  of an anal stimulator perhaps,
• 17:52
  a lot i get a lot of well when i started working at the other shop i started
• 17:57
  getting a lot of straight couples and the guys wanted to do anal on the girls,
• 18:02
  and i would always tell the girls because the guys was like you know she would
• 18:07
  be oh my god he's so big and you know and i would be like, yeah, right.
• 18:14
  But I would always tell the girl, well, both of them, but the girl,
• 18:18
  you can't start with a big.
• 18:21
  Big reality back there. You know, you've got to start with a...
• 18:24
  So that's why you need a little plug to kind of start...
• 18:27
  Yeah, we have training kits. You know, like start with a little tiny one,
• 18:32
  the middle one, the big one.
• 18:35
  Yeah, it's like you graduate. It's like you're learning to open the doors of paradise back there.
• 18:40
  Gradually. Gradually. You don't want to go win.
• 18:45
  But these are the kinds of things that we talk about. And it's a lot of fun.
• 18:50
  And there's a lot of people involved in this line of work throughout the country,
• 18:54
  throughout the world, and they'll tell you, you know, you have to open up your mind and you have to.
• 19:01
  You have to realize that for some people, it's a very sensitive,
• 19:04
  very personal thing. And for some people, they'll talk about it.
• 19:08
  They don't care. Oh, yeah. Whatever. Yeah.
• 19:11
  I have some clients. And everything in between. Yeah. I have some clients come
• 19:14
  down and tell me what's happened.
• 19:16
  And I'm just going, okay, I don't know if I want to hear this.
• 19:20
  I remember when I saw this really elegant, really gorgeous couple.
• 19:27
  Yeah. And they were jogging down the sidewalk.
• 19:29
  They had, it was the man, the woman, a baby's shoulder with a baby, and a golden retriever.
• 19:37
  I was like, wow. I mean, that was like from a picture book, you know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 19:42
  And as they were jogging, they pulled up in front of our store. Yeah. They stopped.
• 19:47
  The woman told the man who lost the dog and the baby, and she came in,
• 19:52
  and she purchased a butt plug because she wanted to start training him.
• 19:57
  Because she wanted to start yeah she was like well he likes it better.
• 20:02
  My finger so i was thinking if i get some more things maybe we can start experimenting
• 20:06
  with toys and stuff like that oh wow and i just thought that is hot you guys
• 20:10
  yeah that's hot i'm so glad that they're experiment and i'm so glad that they're open and having fun,
• 20:15
  and make you know and evolving and they're keeping it fresh and hot yeah we need the,
• 20:21
  especially like straight couples we need them to be more open yeah Because, you know, after.
• 20:28
  Being married for so many years,
• 20:31
  You know, things become habitual. Yeah, routine. Routine, yes.
• 20:35
  So you need to spice it up.
• 20:38
  You know what I'm saying? Yeah, and there's all sorts of ways to spice it up.
• 20:41
  I mean, use your imagination.
• 20:44
  You can spice it up gently, or you can go to extremes in spicing it up.
• 20:49
  Whatever suits you. Whatever suits you. And don't be afraid,
• 20:54
  and don't worry what people will think. It's none of their business. Yeah.
• 20:58
  Between you and your partner. Like you said, don't be afraid to experiment and
• 21:03
  don't be afraid to talk to each other while you are in the act.
• 21:08
  Because, and I know this from experience, it's like when you don't communicate
• 21:13
  with your partner, they're not going to know what you like.
• 21:17
  Oh, yeah. Communication is everything. Please. Especially sexually.
• 21:21
  Because, I mean, you have to let them know, I like when I'm touched there.
• 21:25
  I don't like when I'm touched there.
• 21:27
  Right, exactly. I like when you kiss me there or lick me there.
• 21:29
  I like, you know, that kind of stuff. You have to let Abby know. You have to be. You do.
• 21:35
  I learned that lesson a long time ago. And here's another thing.
• 21:37
  This is going to be really controversial, but I'm going to bring it up anyway.
• 21:41
  And I'm probably going to get a lot of flack, especially from the females.
• 21:44
  Okay. But here's my thing. Talk to me, girl. Okay.
• 21:48
  There are a lot of females who are really good at performing oral on their male
• 21:55
  partner. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
• 21:57
  And there are a lot of females who would rather not.
• 22:02
  Oh, yeah. I mean. And I'm telling you, the trend that we've seen is that these
• 22:08
  heterosexual males need that so much in their lives.
• 22:14
  They desire it so badly that they're willing to put their junk in a man's mouth.
• 22:22
  In order to seek out pleasure yeah a gay man is why god created glory rolls
• 22:27
  so that they don't have to look at the creature on the other side it's not a
• 22:30
  creature it's a person but,
• 22:32
  you know what i mean they don't have to look and they can imagine in their mind
• 22:35
  that it's you know their wife or a beautiful woman or whatever they need to
• 22:39
  imagine it and that's why the glory hole exists and that's why they're so popular
• 22:42
  with the straight guys because,
• 22:45
  they still need that oral pleasure and they definitely seek it out and,
• 22:53
  i have to tell you it makes up a huge percentage of our clientele is heterosexual
• 22:58
  men who are just there because.
• 23:02
  They are really really hardy and they need oral to be performed on them and
• 23:06
  their partner at home is not doing it yeah and and they You need an experience.
• 23:12
  Or bring it long enough. Oh, yeah.
• 23:15
  Or strong enough. And I mean, this sounds horrible, but it does require a certain
• 23:20
  amount of neck muscles, throat muscle, you know, an ability to keep your mouth
• 23:25
  open and wide for a long amount of time.
• 23:27
  And have no gag reflex. Gag reflex, all that kind of stuff.
• 23:33
  And there, you know, there is nothing...
• 23:39
  Better than the human mouth.
• 23:43
  No toy has ever come close to simulating what the mouth can actually do,
• 23:49
  the temperature of the mouth, the sensation that the mouth can create.
• 23:52
  The softness. And of course, always be safe.
• 23:55
  But what we're saying is, girls, don't get ticked off at your dude if he finds
• 24:02
  out that he's straight, but he lets some dude go down on it.
• 24:09
  And take care of it because that's what he really needs. Yeah,
• 24:13
  and then you don't have to do it.
• 24:15
  And it's like heat. They go into heat. Women go into heat.
• 24:19
  You have this certain time. It could be a month or a year for some people of
• 24:24
  the day. You know what I mean?
• 24:27
  The ones that have a lot of energy. But you get that urge, and the urge gets
• 24:33
  more and more and more intense.
• 24:35
  And it's really important to take care of it. Even if you just masturbate,
• 24:38
  it's really important to take care of that urge and let that stress out,
• 24:42
  let that steam out of the engine.
• 24:44
  You know what I mean? Fire away. Get it out. Get it out. Get it out.
• 24:48
  Because you don't want to just keep shutting it in and keeping it in. Yeah.
• 24:52
  It's a great way to be. And back to that releasing of stress.
• 24:56
  So important. Oh, my God. So bottom line, go home tonight and,
• 25:02
  you know, finger one out or whatever.
• 25:07
  Whatever it takes, whatever you do, take care of business down there.
• 25:11
  And then you know, if you are by yourself, you don't have a partner.
• 25:17
  You've got to take care of things. You still have to take care of it. Oh, yeah, you're safe.
• 25:24
  And you know what you like, so you can perform it on yourself.
• 25:26
  You know what I'm saying? It can be great.
• 25:28
  It's all great. But the important thing is that you're taking care of it and
• 25:32
  that you're releasing it.
• 25:34
  You're nurturing that. You're nurturing that part of you that means the release.
• 25:41
  It is all about that release. There's no release that you can go through is
• 25:47
  as intense as an orgasm. And as effective.
• 25:50
  Wow! That's so intense. That's why the toes curl. That's why the eyes go back and you scroll.
• 25:57
  It's so intense. All right. So hopefully we made you a little horny. Yeah. And go play.
• 26:04
  Go play. Go have fun. Please. Because that's what it's all about.
• 26:09
