Inside Adult Radio to Feature 'Women in Control'

LOS ANGELES — InsideAdult radio will highlight female performers in the adult industry managing their careers, brands, and products on its show today. The live, weekly show on Vivid Radio airs from 7 to 8 p.m. EST on SiriusXM 102.

Show co-hosts Paul Fishbein, InsideAdult founder and president of Plausible Films, and Veruca James, will speak live on air with this week’s guests, including performer/director/producers Bonnie Rotten, Dana Vespoli, and Francesca Le, as well as Le's co-director and husband, Mark Wood. In the episode titled “Women in Control,” the guests will discuss the rise of women in the adult industry working behind the camera.

Le and Wood co-own LeWood Productions, which is distributed by Evil Angel; Rotten recently signed a distribution deal with Girlfriends Films for her studio, Mental Beauty, Inc.; and Vespoli, owner of DV Productions distributed through Evil Angel, won a 2014 XBIZ Award for Director of the Year.

“We’re thrilled to have Bonnie, Dana, and Francesca on our show,” Fishbein said. “These three women illustrate the arc of the adult industry’s acceptance of female directors, as well as the increased appeal of feminist porn and strong, empowered women who are completely in charge of their sexuality as well as their business acumen.”

James added, “As a performer myself, having industry role models like Bonnie, Dana, and Francesca in studio is going to be so inspiring! I look forward to hearing their advice for women in the industry.”
