What Are They Up to Now?

"I just don't want to necessarily be known as the Blow Job Kind of the world." Talk about talking #friendshipgoals to a whole new level.

The breakout moment from Netflix's documentary? When the seasoned event producer admitted he was willing to perform oral sex on a customs officer in order to gain access to water for the festival at McFarland's request. 

And in a recent video posted by Netflix, King admitted he was "completely blown away" (no pun intended, we presume) by the response to the documentary. "I am now a noun, a verb, an adjective...it's mind-blogging." 

King was known as "the Billy whisperer" as he was his mentor, and admitted to the L.A. Times he hasn't cut ties with his imprisoned protégé.

"No, I'm not done with him. I know — I'm Uncle Whackjob," he said. "But I grew up in New Jersey, he grew up in New Jersey. We come from a preppy background. Half my friends have sons his age. I didn't have somebody to mentor me at that age. He's not a horrible guy. He has hurt a lot of people. Will I probably go visit him someday? Yeah, I will probably. And maybe that's the closure I need."

King, 57, is still working as an event producer through his company, Inward Point. He also helped start a GoFundMe to help pay back all of the local Bahamian workers who were not compensated for their tireless efforts to help put the festival together.
