When I first read Tyler Knight’s blog, I was devastated–in a good way. His writing is graphic, to-the-point; unapologetically forward. I really wanted to interview him.
This interview is a departure from the On the Couch series and Porn Star Vignettes. There’s no focus on a ‘day in the life’ or it being anything other than a straightforward interview. Nonetheless, I’m adding it to the On the Couch catalog for now.
Much is discussed.
Tyler talks about getting into the adult industry, meeting bestselling author Tucker Max as a consequence of starting his blog in 2008, and his forthcoming memoir. Tyler discusses his views on the Measure B condom ordinance, women who charge more to work with black performers, and his criticisms of the industry–Manwin as the “vertically integrated Goldman Sachs of porn”, as well as performer agents who would push performers to work during a moratorium [last August--reference link here].
It’s refreshing to hear Tyler clarify that his blog is not a completely accurate representation of his entire time in the adult industry and that he doesn’t regret his career. It was a pleasure speaking with him on-camera and off.
