Note: It’s awkward to be posting a press release about myself here, but Friedman was very gracious about the whole interview. This discussion was not specifically to promote myself, but to provide Friedman with some great content. We got to give some good advice, provide some perspective, and talk a little about clients.

Notice that what is deliberately missing is the URL to this web site. I didn’t think about it until I started posting the release here, yet I’m standing by that decision.

As you’ll read in the release, it’s not all about me, and this business. It’s about my clients and those I’m working with. The ending of this press release not only pushes the interview address, but also Bruce Friedman’s firm and affiliate program. Those who need me will find me. This release is about sending Bruce Friedman some love. Thank you kindly!

Jay Moyes of High Octane Heart Interviewed on Adult Site Broker Talk

Pattaya, Thailand — Jay Moyes, owner of High Octane Heart Media and PR was recently a guest on Adult Site Broker Talk, hosted by Bruce Friedman.

Moyes worked for adult news publications such as The Spectator and Adult Video News, before moving into the publicity business with Sherry Ziegelmeyer of Black and Blue Media. Ziegelmeyer passed away in 2020, prompting Moyes to make a fresh start with High Octane Heart Media and PR. Moyes was on the show to discuss how the adult business has changed, what it’s like working with the adult press, and important things to know about publicity.

Friedman joked about how hard it was to get Moyes on the air, and got some solid advice about PR reps.

“When a publicist is getting more attention than the client, that’s a red flag,” Moyes commented. “My clients, like The Dungeon Store came first… I can wait.”

Also of concern for the veteran publicist was coming back into the spotlight after the closing of Black and Blue Media.

“This was like stripping a car down to the bare frame,” noted Moyes about starting over. “It wasn’t the intended metaphor for High Octane Heart, but I wasn’t going to be pushing my business if I couldn’t even race in the game.”

Moyes gave more tips on publicity, mainstream crossover, the relationship of publicity with marketing and surviving in the adult business.

“You have to be ready to learn new tech and new media. I do graphics, because I started from the art department side, but I’ve also had to do some video editing, I’ve done coding. We’ve been waiting for 3D to catch fire, virtual has come in… It’s just a matter of when that becomes the only thing…When you’re the publicist, you’re always hustling for the client. It’s not a don’t call us, we’ll call you kind of game.”

Brittany Wilson of The Dungeon Store Talks about Pleasure Products on Adult Site Broker Talk

World Wide Web — Brittany Wilson, Brand Manager for The Dungeon Store, was recently on episode 106 of Adult Site Broker Talk with Bruce Friedman, to discuss working in the pleasure products business, the evolution of BDSM toys, violet wands, rope for shibari, puppy play, and the differences between distributing BDSM products and selling at shows.

Every week, Friedman interviews movers and shakers of the adult industry and discusses what goes in adult related business.

The Dungeon Store is a curated collection of kinky pleasure products ranging from mild to wild, mostly created by BDSM professionals in the United States. Friedman asked Wilson about the differences from the distribution side of The Dungeon Store, and the direct to consumer side of the business.

“A lot of the stuff we distribute is also available on our web site,” notes Wilson “You just won’t find it at events. The biggest thing I can think of is, we have a very robust puppy [role] play line that is available on our website, it just doesn’t get picked up for purchases very often there. We wholesale it… Puppy play is very popular… There are pups across the entire spectrum of LGBTQIA+ and BDSM… You wear a tail, which can either affix to a belt or be part of a butt plug. You have mitts on your hands that turn into effectively, paws, and very often knee pads, and you go into ‘pup space…’ It’s a fun community!”

Friedman asked of Wilson, “In event photos, we’ve seen some items that aren’t on the site, like insertable violet wand toys, shibari rings for suspension, and those awesome wax play candles. How does someone order those from you online?”

“I would strongly recommend to anyone who sees something… they want to order and it’s not on the site. Just drop me an e-mail, sales@thedungeonstore.com,” replied Wilson. “There’s always a reason stuff isn’t on the site. It has a lot to do with what makes the most sense for some of the small manufacturers we work with… But I can sell them to you. I’m the same, reputable business. I’m the same person. Whether it’s an e-mail order or an event based sale.”

This week, Wilson will be with The Dungeon Store at Dark Odyssey’s Fusion, a sold-out summer camp for the kinky and intimately adventurous. The Dungeon Store will be offering handmade floggers and paddles, books on BDSM techniques, rope made for bondage lovers, and wax play candles so campers can light up their play under the starry night.
