Awesome... not that I mind hearing about your balls

The Black Magic line was a big success here - people are loving it.

That would be great! I would think getting the silicone soft enough would be the hardest part.

That's an answer that makes EVERYONE happy!

Since you brought it up. Which products do you have that are made in America?

Can you give a ballpark as to what percentage of your products are made in USA?

Johnson was the most popular surname in the country at the time. And the 'Doc' was a way of bringing a feeling of comfortability. We are not your Doctor, but we are the good ol' Doc.

Nah, I wouldn't be freaked out! I'd demand that I get to help with the business. . . like designing and testing LOL. . . See now I'd make it awkward!

I still think you guys are covering up the real story of TrishieBear's dad being behind it...that or some silly reference to penises (a 'Johnson')

For everyone wanting some company history on Doc Johnson, be sure to read the Community Interview we did with the CEO, Ron Braverman, and the Director of Product Development and Licensing, (and also Ron's son), Chad Braverman (who is here with us tonight!) - lots of GREAT info in this interview!!!

All of our dildos, storkers/masturbators, silicone, lubes/lotions/potions are 100% made in USA. Over 70% of our items are made in America. And we employ up to 600 employees at any given time.

It is not widely known, but I remember it came up in your interview with us last year... Doc Johnson actually manufactures toys for lots of other companies - including companies that are "competitors" with you guys.

So, all totaled, including private label stuff too - how many pieces of product do you think you make in a year?

Thanks for the info on the silicone sleeve! I want to get him something (even though he claims he doesn't need one) that's not going to irritate him and bring some more fun to the bedroom that won't scare him lol.
