want in order to get a show.
but i think his own youtube type channel could get a lot of viewers and make him some money.
i think antoine dodson was able to make some money this way.
but kai doesn't seem like he would really be into all of that. but it would be good if he can make a some money here and there to at least give him the basics to get by everyday.

Kai: Never. How long have you been homeless?
