00:04You know, you started this, you said, 20 years ago.
00:07We've seen so many things in the adult industry change.
00:09How have you seen taboo and fetish genres evolve over the years?
00:14Well, definitely a lot more restrictions and saturation in the marketplace.
00:21Um, so I've watched, unfortunately, you know, trending, you know, something is selling for individuals.
00:32So now everybody's doing it and then it just gets so saturated and, you know, it, it kind of takes away from the whole art of, um, producing and directing and writing stories and coming up with really good storylines.
00:47And, you know, just to, you know, make a quickie.
00:51Yeah.
00:52So, um, yeah, I think that it's really gotten saturated and yeah, it's changed a lot in that manner.
00:59And you find it difficult to work with the restrictions.
01:01I mean, specifically on certain platforms.
01:04It's really, really Instagrams are getting deleted, shut down.
01:08Um, there's no one you can talk to when that happens.
01:11It's just, you went against community guidelines.
01:15What did I do?
01:16You see the picture.
01:16What's wrong with this picture?
01:18It could be a word you used.
01:20You could have used the word MILF and that could have flagged something.
01:24So now it's like, you know, what, what, what can we say?
01:27How can we post?
01:29Can we sit on a bed and talk?
01:31Like, I've heard you're not supposed to be on a bed.
01:33I heard you're not supposed to be in your underwear.
01:36You're not, you know, there's so many, it's, it's just ridiculous.
01:39You know, it's like, what, what are we allowed to share anymore?
01:43And how long is this going to last?
01:46I mean, is Twitter going to be there forever or is it going to go?
01:49And what happens if it goes into the industry?
01:51No, you guys can't do that anymore.
01:54You know, then you've got meta and it's just really, I don't know where it's going, but.
01:59Now, what about restrictions on like actually making adult content?
02:04Because there are like so many new guidelines, you know, the credit card companies have really come down hard on the adult industry and put in all kinds of very specific restrictions.
02:14And when I was directing, there was some really crazy shit that we had to go by.
02:20Um, I remember one of the things, and this isn't necessarily crazy, but it's just annoying that you have to write this into the script where I think in like the first five minutes, you have to make sure that you establish, if it's a step scene, that the, um, the younger stepson or stepdaughter was of a, was over the age of 18 when they like met the stepmom or the stepdad.
02:44So there was no suggestion that they were ever, there was ever anything going on when they were under age, which I, which I totally understand.
02:51Sure. Yeah.
02:52Um, it was just like, you always had to write in there somewhere like, it would have to be something like, you know, when you married my dad, when I was 18, I was really mad.
03:02Like something, you know what I mean?
03:03And you're my stepmom and, you know, and then you have to verbalize stepson or daughter.
03:09Yeah.
03:10Yeah. And then, you know, other things around, um, you know, consent, which again, obviously like consent is a very important part of what we do and behind the scenes, we are very adamant about it.
03:23But like one of the restrictions was, um, you couldn't even, if somebody was sleeping, you couldn't touch them.
03:32Yes.
03:32Like you couldn't tap them awake. Like if we were shooting a dialogue scene, there's no sex in the scene at all.
03:38Mm-hmm.
03:38Someone's sleeping and the husband comes in and like shakes her awake. Nope.
03:42That's out.
03:43Can't touch them.
03:44Can't do it.
03:44You have to wake up some other way.
03:46You shouldn't be sleeping. You shouldn't do it because it's just, yeah.
03:49And I'm just like, you can't.
03:50And there's no more hypnosis, mind control.
03:53Yeah.
03:53Uh, there's, that's a huge fetish.
03:55Can't have a lot of, a lot of times you can't have like a glass of wine.
03:59No, no more.
04:00In there.
04:01And in most of my films, again, coming from 20 years ago, watching sitcoms, this is, those were my, you know, those were my muses was like watching Will and Grace and I Love Lucy and all these shows I loved.
04:15And so I'm like, all right, we're going to start the scene out where, uh, you see the car keys, the car engine turn off.
04:21And I want you to film my feet, the door open, the shoes hit the ground, clip, clop, clip, keys into the front door, drop the keys, pour a martini, which is water into a martini glass.
04:33Just water.
04:33We're not really drinking.
04:34Yeah.
04:35On the, you know, making a film.
04:36And then drop the olives, sit down, kick off the heels.
04:40This is a whole setup that we see on TV.
04:43This is how people set up scenes.
04:45The person got home from work, they're tired, they slip off their shoes, they have a cold drink, you know, and we can't do that.
04:51So I'm literally older content.
04:54We're having to chop it up and remove.
04:57And it's, I just don't, you know, I don't understand why our industry has to do that.
05:02But yeah, you can watch this on TV, um, on the other networks, you know, so.
05:08Are there any platforms that you're able to sell your content in whole or is this for, is this across the board for every single platform?
05:15Yeah.
05:15Cause I'm on all the platforms, clips for sale, many vids.
05:19Clips for sales also like had to come down with these restrictions.
05:22All of them.
05:22Yeah.
05:22Because it's the banking, the MasterCard and Visa.
05:25I knew that like there was some.
05:27They're putting it down on every single platform.
05:29Yeah.
05:29And if they're not happening now, they will.
05:31Yeah.
05:32Cause there were some platforms that were like a little bit more lenient than other ones.
05:35Yeah.
05:36And it all came down to like their interpretation of the rules.
05:40But, um, I did actually just get a notification from Fansly recently that a bunch of things that were previously okay are now no longer okay.
05:49Yeah.
05:49Anything suggest that you're in public, like.
05:52And content too with the holding up the both IDs.
05:56They have to be pictures.
05:57So if I have content that's 15 years old and I worked with all amateur people that answered back page and Craigslist ads.
06:05I never hired a professional.
06:07I've never worked with professionals or done mainstream.
06:10Right.
06:10Uh, 18 years.
06:11I did all just.
06:13So you don't have literally men answering, uh, ads that I put out.
