Porn Valley- James Bartholet announced this week he was leaving his Monday night PrimeTimeUncensored show, www.primetimeuncensored.com, and moving on.

Friday night Bartholet walked in the PTU offices and cleaned out his desk, so to speak. Bartholet looked sad. I was sad. Because Bartholet was removing booze from the building- the left over props from his show which has sidekick/bartender Mike Sneed mixing drinks and making merry. But Bartholet’s not so merry. He’s a little somber. After all, there will be no more Suck & Blow. [One of his sponsors.]

Bartholet shakes hands with Mike Fattorosi and thanks him for the association and opportunity. On his last show, Bartholet took the opportunity to feel up Britney Stevens in the back room.

As he’s done before, Fattorosi advises Bartholet against the idea of becoming a male performer. But it seems Bartholet already has his mind made up on that score and beams about the expanded part he got to play in the upcoming J Ho movie where he plays a drunk senator.

In any event, Bartholet says he’s had mainstream offers from TV Guide, Turner, Spike TV, Sirius. Bartholet’s being serious.

And he names a number of other outlets that all seem to want his services after word apparently got out of his PTU show. Whichever way the wind blows, Bartholet’s saying something about having a future staff to make bookings so he won’t have to fret with it himself any more. Bartholet’s telling me some nights he’d get manic about booking the next week’s guests on PTU.

I ask Bartholet about some of the shots he’s taken on www.xxxporntalk.com, primarily from Stevie Why who refers to Bartholet’s career as “a gas cloud.”

As he did in an interview I had with him a couple of weeks previous, www.adultfyi.com/read.php?ID=24052, Bartholet uses the word “cowards” to describe the keyboard vigilantes.

“They sit home at nights and don’t date girls,” Bartholet reflects. And no, he hadn’t read Stevie Why’s latest post. Bartholet then starts quoting George Clooney, who, next to Winston Churchill, is someone you’d certainly name drop in intellectual confab.

The next booking for Bartholet’s swizzle stick will be Wednesday. According to Bartholet, there’s a farewell party for Kurt Lockwood who’s leaving the adult industry for Spain. Bartholet tells me Lockwood’s going to be a father, that his girlfriend, who’s from Spain, has already moved back there, and that she’s expecting in 8 weeks.

“Kurt’s going to sit on the beach and play daddy,” announces Bartholet.

One thing you can say, James Bartholet’s last unofficial PTU gossip report is a stunner.
