Mr. Media is recorded live before a studio audience full of masters, johnsons, and multiple other double entendres… in the NEW new media capital of the world… St. Petersburg, Florida!

Every time I think back to my legendary 1979 lunch with film director Russ Meyer at the Dutch Kitchen in Gainesville, Florida, I can’t help but smile.

He had stopped in at the movie theaters where I worked my way through college, the Royal Park Cinema 4, and told our manager, Jim Symons, that he was hoping to generate some press for his latest film, Beneath the Valley of the Ultra Vixens, starring the pneumatically endowed Miss Kitten Natividad.

Lucky me – Mr. Symons told him I wrote for Gainesville Magazine and was also studying film at the University of Florida.

We were introduced and Meyer invited me and my pal (and assistant manager) Allen Solomon to the greatest business lunch of our lives.
RUSS MEYER podcast excerpt: "(I asked) a boy in the audience, 'What did you think of the film?' 'I've always been a fan of yours,' he said, 'but you spent so much time in the courtroom and you didn't spend an equivalent time on people screwing.' He said it exactly that way."

Over burgers, fries and Cokes (at a restaurant Allen’s father had literally opened for the chain years earlier), Meyer regaled us with behind the scenes tales of the life of a happy ographer.
