Post-Power Rangers
After Yost left Power Rangers, he tried to get rid of his homosexuality with "conversion therapy" for two years, but this failed. Eventually Yost had a nervous breakdown which resulted in his psychiatric hospitalization for five weeks. After Yost checked out, he moved to Mexico for a year and eventually accepted his sexuality.
In 1996, Yost had a leading role in the movie Ladykiller as Josh White. In 2000, he portrayed a Playboy photographer in the made-for-television movie After Diff'rent Strokes: When the Laughter Stopped. He was an associate producer for another made-for-television movie, The Mary Kay Letourneau Story, that same year. In 2001, he first tried his hand at producing, working on the series Alien Hunter and Temptation Island, but he had not acted in front of the camera in some four years, at least since 1997. He worked as the director of production for Sci-Fi Lab, headed by the Sci-Fi Channel. Yost was then the manager of licensing for Pioneer Entertainment, where he sold completed television shows and films to such networks as Showtime, Starz/Encore and Cartoon Network.
In 2002, Yost performed in a play called Fallen Guardian Angels at "the complex" located in Los Angeles for A.P.L.A. (A.I.D.S. Project Los Angeles). The play was about six actors dealing with HIV in various situations. The proceeds went to benefit The Children's Hospitals AIDS Center. The entire production raised over $25,000 and Yost himself raised $5,000 for the hospital and received good reviews from LA Weekly Theatre. In 2004, he worked as a field producer for a U.K. documentary series called You Are What You Eat.
