 The motorcycle was in the parking garage of the building I worked at, along with the suicide door car, too.
Famous people can come from anywhere but when you come from Minnesota, you’re very aware that you come from not only the land of 10,000 lakes, but also the land of the funkiest rock star the world has ever seen, also known as Prince, this episode is both a tribute and a memorial to him… he left us too soon ...on April 21st, 2016 and his birthday is June 7th. We have a special episode today featuring two stories about Prince and you’ll be happy to hear that one of our favorite guests, Shanti Hendricks is back and here to tell one of them. If you don’t know Shanti, she was recently featured on two episodes of our show, where she shared her crazy, behind-the-scene stories of her time as a Fear Factor contestant. Be sure to listen to those two episodes, which aired early April 2019, after you finish this episode.
Welcome back to Part 2 of our Story.
13 years ago, my friend Shanti turned a free breakfast into a custom-made motorcycle and an all-expenses paid trip to Venezuela ...when she sort of, accidentally ended up as a contestant on Pyscho Fear Factor…, yes, you heard me correctly…. Psycho Fear Factor. If you haven’t listened to part one of this story, we recommend you do so now…. It first aired on April 4th, 2019...we’ll be right here waiting for you when you come back. So, Shanti and her boyfriend are on the Psycho Fear Factor and not only that, end up being surprise finalists...hence the motorcycle and vacation…. If you’re not familiar with Fear Factor, it was a popular NBC reality TV show, where the contestants competed in a variety of scary and gross stunts and dares for various grand prizes. The show was hosted by Joe Rogan, you might know him now the host of the popular Podcast, the Joe Rogan Experience. Fear Factor was rebooted in 2017 on MTV with Ludicris as the host. The original Fear Factor aired from 2001 to 2006 and Shanti was lucky enough to appear in a special three episode arc called Psycho Fear Factor during the last season. Shanti and her then-boyfriend Clayton, were one of 6 couples competing on the show, which was centered around the real-life, uber-creepy Bates Motel set, on the set of the horror movie filmPsycho. In this Fear Factor, the contestants were required to sleep in the Motel. I’ll never forget the night Shanti and I met… she was one of those people I just knew I was destined to be friends with. She’s gorgeous, enthusiastic, loves crystals (as do I) and is fun as hell to hang out with… plus her stories are hilarious and unbelievable. This probably wont’ be the last time you hear Shanti on our show… but enough talk… let’s get back to Shanti now on Psycho Fear Factor… when we left her last, she was about to eat something pretty disgusting…. Quick note: Today’s episode includes swear words. Huge thanks again to Shanti for sharing this awesome and hilarious How in the Hell did I get here story!

My friend Shanti loves to eat, so one day in 2006 when her college boyfriend invited her out for breakfast, she said yes, of course. Little did she know that would lead to being buried alive, eating spiders, having a soul-mate moment with a rat, swimming with snakes, and dealing with thousands of flying, hissing cockroaches.
This is Kim A. Flodin and welcome to How in the Hell did I get here? We have a special couple of shows for you over the next two weeks! If you were a fan of a certain popular reality TV show hosted by a now uber popular podcast host, you’re going to love the next two episodes featuring our very special guest, Shanti Hendricks, also known as one of the FINALISTS on Psycho Fear Factor 2006. If you’re not familiar with Fear Factor, it was an NBC reality TV stunt/dare show, hosted by Joe Rogan, now the host of the popular Podcast, the Joe Rogan Experience, and aired from 2001 to 2006. It was a crazy show filled with scary, gross and freaky stunts and dares. The show had contestants playing against each other for some sort of a grand prize. Psycho Fear Factor: was a three-episode series during Fear Factor Season 6. Shant and her then boyfriend, Clayton, were one of six couples who would have to live through… I mean, compete, in six mind-bending and horrifying stunts for various cash and prizes. For Psycho Fear Factor, the stunts were naturally centered around the creepy Bates Motel set of the original horror movie. Unlike other Fear Factor episodes, contestants were required to sleep in the dirty and scary Bates Motel between stunts and soon found out that anything could happen at anytime there. I’d like you to meet my good friend and soul sister, Shanti Hendricks. You know how when meet certain people and you just know they are one of your tribe… it was like that the night I met Shanti. We gravitated towards each other like two moths to a flame and we were chatting like old friends from the minute we met. Shanti is gorgeous, energetic, generous, sweet and not afraid to tell it like it is. Picture Tinkerbell. We became fast friends and of course, just like myself, she’s had more than her share of How in the hell did I get here moments? Today’s story is Part 1 of her Psycho Fear Factor adventure.
