Behind the Blue Movie

Jen and Dagda explore the evolution of adult cinema from stag films to the Golden Age of Porn. This episode examines Andy Warhol's groundbreaking "Blue Movie" (1969), which accidentally got its name from using the wrong film stock, and cost only $3,000 to make while earning over $800,000. Learn about iconic films like Deep Throat, Behind the Green Door, and how these movies played in mainstream theaters alongside regular Hollywood releases. The hosts discuss the seismic shift caused by VHS technology in 1984, the transition from plot-driven films to gonzo-style content, and profile legendary performers like Eric Edwards (the only actor to appear in porn across 5 decades). The episode concludes with the heartbreaking story of Candy Barr, a 16-year-old who became the first recognized female porn star in 1951—decades before child protection laws existed.

⚠️ Fair warning: This episode includes the tragic story of Candy Barr and discusses serious issues around exploitation and industry evolution.

Always a good time to be had...After Dark.

We truly enjoyed our time working on the brick and mortar side of the adult industry. We spent A LOT of time trying to satisfy and satiate many a curious mind while educating the 1st timers on some adult fun ideas!

We had a great employer who was not only the 1st fully licensed adult store in Washington , Momma D was the 1st FEMALE adult store owned in our state!
