Porn Valley- Star power came to KSEX Tuesday night in the person of the comedic pit bull Bobby Slayton. Slayton was a guest of Steven St. Croix and Roxy DeVille on the Saint and The Sinner Show, and Slayton remembered the time St. Croix did Slayton’s radio show, Comedy World.

“And everybody knows that took off,” said St. Croix sarcastically.

“Compared to Comedy World this is a major, major broadcast,” replied Slayton matching the cynicism.

“This is stuff that we bought from the AM radio station that was down the street,” St. Croix added. “Paul Harvey actually used this sound deck.”

St. Croix talked about Slayton’s mainstream credits but the most interesting facet of the conversation is when it got around to the time that Slayton emceed the AVN Awards on several occasions.

Noting that Slayton’s HBO’s show Mind of a Married Man tanked, with Slayton saying someone over at HBO must have really hated it, St. Croix wondered whether it was because a lot of women work at HBO.

“That’s part of it,” Slayton thought. St. Croix described the show as being a male version of Sex in the City.

“It gave an insight into the male mind- the way that most men do not want women to know,” said St. Croix.

Slayton then recalled how he got up on the AVN stage talking about porno actors.

“They’re banging hot chicks all the time- I’m the guy nailing the same woman for the last 20 years- here’s your actor; here’s the guy that’s acting!”

St. Croix suggested that Slayton should have a hall of fame award judging on his number of appearances.

“I hosted it two or three times,” said Slayton who apparently took it the year after St. Croix hosted. Slayton did it a few times then recommended comedian Robert Schimmel.

“It’s not an easy show to do,” admitted Slayton. “My favorite of going to Vegas and going to the AVN awards is watching all the people walking in. I’m watching these guys with their fat ugly wives and their fat ugly children- I’ve got a beautiful wife and I’ve had my share of women over the years, I’ve been around before I got married- but to see these guys with their dumpy, ugly wives of 40 years and the looks on their faces. It’s a look of awe. They’re appalled. They’re jealous. They’re mesmerized. Even if you’re in the industry to see all these people come with their fake boobs and crazy outfits and the tuxes, outrageous porno stars. Gene Simmons was there one year- can you imagine if you’re from Akron, Ohio? Vegas is enough of a shock. But you’re standing there in the Venetian Hotel…”

St. Croix called all of what Slayton was describing as “The Gauntlet.”

“They have about 1500, 1800 people that are talent in the business,” St. Croix continued. “All walking this gauntlet from the escalators in The Venetian Hotel all the way to the ballroom where the awards are held. I swear to God, it’s six feet of space it moves slower than the 405.” St. Croix agreed that the sites must be a shock for the average couple coming in to spend a few days in Vegas.

St. Croix mentioned Jenna Jameson and Slayton said the first year he hosted the show, Jameson was maybe 21.

“And she co-hosted with me and I guess she got an award as best newcomer,” said Slayton. “Her dad was backstage with her boyfriend/husband, whatever, at the time and I said to her dad- kind of facetious- you must be really proud of your daughter. He’s, yeah, ‘I’m so proud of her.’ I mean it’s nice your daughter accomplished something. God forbid my daughter wanted to be in the business. I don’t think I’d be there in the wings going, yeah! Go baby, go. I think I would try to remove myself from the situation.”

Slayton said his wife is always bringing up the fact that he has a daughter. And, in fact, Slayton will be in Vegas to host the The Exotic Dancer Awards Thursday night.

“The hungry hippo awards,” said St. Croix. “They’re a bunch of hungry hippos. They starve themselves till they get back there eating chicken wings.” Slayton didn’t get it and St. Croix explained it was an inside joke.

“All these girls pretend they don’t eat- they starve themselves,” St. Croix went on. “Then they work at these gentlemen’s clubs. They usually have these kitchens. They order chickens wings and quesadillas. They’re just stuffing their faces while they’re wiping themselves with tissues and checking the mirror. A lot of hungry hippos.”

Slayton said it was funny to use the term gentlemen to describe some of the guys who go there who are found puking in the parking lots with their underwear around their knees. St. Croix said when he hears gentlemen’s club he expects to see some guy wearing a Mr. Peanut monocle.

“Most everybody who goes in there is like gangbangers’ central,” St. Croix said. “They’re like, yo, yo and throwing quarters.”

St. Croix’s known Slayton for about ten years, and Slayton said it was at the AVN awards they first met.

“We hadn’t actually met until after the show,” St. Croix went on. “You were hanging out at the bar with one of your buddies. I think it was at Bally’s.” Slayton remembered that Tom Byron sang I Wanna make Love to You during the show.

“And Jeanna Fine was one of my co-hosts,” Slayton recalled. “She was a piece of work.” St. Croix thought Fine ought to write a how to book on motherhood. Slayton remembered the year that AVN held the technical merit awards the night before the big event.

“Jeanna Fine was there and says to me what are you doing after the show?” recalled Slayton. “I said a friend of mine is with Metallica- I might go by and say hello. She’s I’m going to see Metallica- I’ve got backstage passes, I’ve got a limo, do you want to go? She was up for Best Actress. I remember going with the Best Actress to the backstage of the Metallica concert.” Afterwards Slayton was dropped off at his hotel 2 in the morning.

“I just went backstage to the Metallica concert with the woman who won Best Porn star of the year and I’m back at my hotel at 2am eating scrambled eggs all by myself,” Slayton mused. “What kind of pussy am I?”

“You obviously love your wife,” said St. Croix.

“I’m afraid of losing all my stuff,” Slayton quipped. “I don’t really cheat on her. The fact is I love her- she’s turned me off to pussy so much more, it’s like food poisoning. You eat something that doesn’t agree with you and you can’t look at it again without puking? It’s more like that. If you want to call it love, that’s fine.”

“Kind of like Lynn Lemay,” said St. Croix. “Second Lynn Lemay reference.” St. croix explained to Slayton who that was, then St. Croix mentioned that he had the pleasure of attending Slayton’s daughter’s 18th birthday over he weekend.

“A couple of her friends recognized you,” said Slayton. St. Croix was curious whether those girls were older or younger, that Slayton’s daughter said some of them recognized him from Pirates.

“But it’s kind of freaking me out because one of her friends said I’ve been watching porn since I was 14 years old.” St. Croix assumed all these girls were going to Ivy League schools. St. Croix, who’s now referred to as ‘Uncle Steve’ over at the Slayton household, related the fact that the girls went to Deja Vu Showgirls to celebrate.

“You have to be 18 and they all hated it,” chimed in Slayton. “My daughter was freaked out by it.” St. Croix heard that the Deja Vu girls who were there Saturday night were ugly and fat. Along those lines, Slayton, describing KSEX as looking like Hogan’s Heroes when they broadcast from an underground bunker under a tree stump, said he was taking his daughter to Vegas for the awards show.

And to the bunker reference, St. Croix commented, “We’ve been promised a remodel for the last four months. But Lowe’s isn’t sending any workers from the corner out here. Se we might have to go to Home Depot.”
