Jimmy Broadway of Severe Sex Films is this week's guest on Adult Site Broker Talk. Jimmy Broadway is the real deal when it comes to true hardcore fetish performances and film production. He began his adult career behind the camera in 2005, and a year later started performing for Passive Arts Studios when they needed more male talent. He's since gone on to perform in hundreds of scenes, primarily in several fetish niches. Getting into the business after the age of 40, Broadway has embraced the cuckolding niche, having appeared in over 200 scenes in that fetish as the cuckolded husband of some of the top female talent in the adult industry. But cuckolding certainly isn't the only fetish Broadway plays with, in fact his list of “don'ts” is far shorter than the list of fetishes he's engaged in on camera. Married to director/editor and Dominatrix Dee Severe, together they co-own Severe Sex Films, a broad-spectrum fetish film production company. Working in the fetish world means different things to different people, but it's all about authenticity, safety, and respect for Broadway. Both Jimmy and his wife work as directors and performers, creating scenes that meet the needs of a very discerning audience. Performing and directing some of the most authentic hardcore fetish material in the industry, Broadway has made quite a name for himself in both the fetish and adult film communities. He's received several award nominations for his work, including four for AVN Niche Performer of the Year. At Severe Sex Films, Dee and Jimmy bring their experience as mainstream independent filmmakers and lifestyle BDSM players to the world of adult entertainment. The company's lines include an educational series, Kink School, which offers instruction in BDSM and fetish play. Their release “Cybill Troy is Vicious” received an AVN Award for Best BDSM Release, while “Corrupted by the Evils of Fetish Porn” and “MindFucked: A Cult Classic” won back to back XBIZ Awards for Fetish Release of the Year. “Charlotte Sar-t: Filthy Angel” and “Perversion and Punishment 13” were both honored by the AltPorn Awards as Best Gonzo Video. Severe Sex Films' also features “Treacherous” and “Corrupted”, which was screened at the CineKink film festival. They have also received numerous award nominations from AVN, XBiz, the TEAs, the Alt Porn Awards and XRCO. Adult Site Broker is the most experienced company to broker adult sites.

In this episode I discuss with Mike White his movie podcast The Projection Booth, the movies he loves, his approach to interviews and podcasting and all matters of cinephilia." "Movie Talk with Mike White” From Mitch’s notebook on the episode: “I first discovered Mike White through his wonderful cinema podcast, The Projection Booth. There are two reasons I love it, and I am speaking as a cinephile, I hasten to say. One is that he has really long form explorations of single films, thus treating the films as artistic texts to be taken seriously, in terms of analysis. There is no cute thumbs up.thumbs down brevity. Secondly, he does this from the perspective of a regular guy/gal. That is, he exhibits the joy and love for cinema of people who are not necessarily academic experts while at the same time delving deep into film as an art. Thus, he achieves a balance rarely found in discussions of this kind. Also I really appreciate his civility. He always talks with guests in the most gracious and respectful manner, never lording it over anybody or indulging in overwrought pretensions. Listening to his podcast gave me inspiration for my own podcast, actually even though our sensibilities are different in certain respects. his relation with discussion gave me one model for how to behave on a podcast. And, last but not least, I like the way he themes his show, centered around a single film. This goes back to turning attention to the text itself which is also one of my guiding principles on my show. I learned a lot on this episode. We discussed the zine culture of the 90s, his background in the American Midwest, and much more. He was every bit the gracious conversationalist I knew he would be. " Mike White’s Bio: Often mistaken for the ginger screenwriter/actor of the same name, Mike White began publishing the film fanzine Cashiers du Cinemart in 1994 and has been a contributor to publications such as Cinema-Scope, Paracinema , Detroit's Metro Times, and Detour-Mag.com. He's served on juries at the Slamdance , Cinekink , MicroCineFest , Blue Water, and Kansas City film festivals. Additionally, he's been featured in the documentaries David Goodis: To a Pulp and The People Vs. George Lucas. In 2010, BearManor Media published Impossibly Funky: A Cashiers du Cinemart Collection.
