A combat-sports enthusiast walked into the speaker's gym during lockdown. A brief masked conversation led to collaboration, then friendship. Kevin became the speaker's son's godfather. One moment of saying yes changed everything.
How did you end up getting connected with Kevin? It's funny, we were in COVID. He actually just walked into the gym because he loves to train. He's got a combat sports background. He was on Rogan. They say both of them started jiu-jitsu together, and I was busy at the time. The manager of the gym was like, these guys want to talk to you, and I'm kind of busy. Can you just handle it? He spent about 10 minutes with him and then came back and he's like, man, these guys really want to talk to you. Bring them in. He's sitting down and he still had his mask on and he had a hat on, so he was covered up. And I'm telling him about what we can do for him. He kept mentioning that he had projects coming up. I'm like, okay, so what do you do? Well, I'm an actor. And I go, got it, King of Queens. It was a good way to start off the relationship in a sense where I was helping him and we created this bond and he's my son's godfather.
