My special guest today was one of those rare G.O’s that I always heard about during my time in Club Med, but sadly never got the chance to work with. He does confirm one of the stories I heard about him if it was true or not. Do you want a hint? Okay, it involves something called a “Stuntman Shot”. We did, however, finally meet at the EXGO reunion 2 in Cancun in 2008. His first season was in Club Med Sonora Bay in March of 1998 as a Waterski G.O. He only goes by one name, because one name is all he needs! Everyone, please help me welcome to MFS, the one and only, Boone! Boone was going to school at Western Washington University in Bellingham, Washington (where they had a collegiate waterski team no less!!) and it was a professor who told Boone about Club Med. Boone did not want to pass out towels for 3 months to earn credit for a course, so this professor told him about a former student who did an internship at Club Med. The rest they say, is history. We talked about so many different subjects during this interview that I completely lost track of time. So if you want to listen all the way to the end, please do so! We also cover Boone’s stand-up experiences and his comedy influences. Boone had so many great and funny stories to tell that I don’t want to ruin any of them by mentioning them here, but I will say that we both share a love for all things Rocky Horror, Bugs Bunny, and Ryan Leach. Boone does have a very funny Neil Diamond impersonator story you have to hear, as well as a scuba diving story involving Corona beer in Sonora Bay. And lastly, he has a very full-circle moment with the person that interviewed him for Club Med all those years ago, Steve Miller, that I swear will not sound believable. And we do get his version of the story about how he and his wife Suzie met in Sandpiper in 2003 and yes, I mention my “Brouette theory” to Boone! **My First Season podcast has always been free to listen to.
