Atomic Bombshell: So, would you ever consider giving up sports to be a dating/sex advice columnist?
.
Steve: Well, it would be odd to have to choose between the two, but I have written dating advice columns mainly targeted at nerdy guys teaching them how to be men instead of piddling boys.
.
AB: If I was a nerd right now, what advice would you give to me to stop piddling, move out of my mom’s basement and give up my dungeons and dragon’s??
.
Steve: The first advice is to talk to girls like they’re actual people
Don’t worry about being agreeable or kissing her ass. Treat her like a person and she’ll be much more interested. I see guys struggle with that all the time.
.
AB: Did you date a lot before you settled down?
.
Steve: I made up for my awkwardness in high school, yes. I had my single idiot time on the road
I don’t like the term “settle down” because it wasn’t settling. This was reaching beyond my league.
.
AB: That’s a wonderful way of putting it!
.
AB: So let’s get back to your career for a minute, you do multiple things with comedy & writing. What would you like to do? What are some of your immediate goals?
.
Steve: I have a movie that is very close to being made. That would be wonderful
I’ve also gotten into the business side of things. I own pieces of a few clubs, and I’m expanding that.
.
AB: A movie! That’s exciting!! As a writer, that a major dream to have, come true!
.
AB: Congratulations on all your upcoming success! Good luck on your tour for PICK YOUR BATTLES which hit #1 on itunes comedy chart on February 15th!!
.
Steve: Thanks so much!

Atomic Bombshell: I saw that you became well known during your college years. Did it help you gain popularity with the ladies, as well?
.
Steve: I don’t think any lady has ever said, “Wow, you run that sports website? We should totally do it!”
.
AB: Obviously, you didn’t have a lot of cheerleaders at that college?
.
Steve: At Columbia? No…
.
AB: Still those were great accomplishments and that adds to a man’s sex appeal.
.
Steve: Our athletes didn’t even get laid, let alone the guys who wrote about them.
.
AB: That’s really sad.
.
Steve: Actually, it’s kind of awesome that people didn’t care about that shit.
.
AB: What was your first dating/bad sex experience like?
.
Steve: When I lost my virginity, she was allergic to the spermicide.
So we had to get new condoms and try again the next morning
.
AB: Allergic? Like what happened?
.
Steve: Burning? Crying?
.
AB: I can’t believe she would try again after that I don’t think I would.
.
Steve: Well, we were allegedly in love. It wasn’t her first time, it was mine.
Lets be fair, she was also a 19-year-old girl who hadn’t had sex in several months.
Maybe she loved me; maybe she wanted to have sex?
Your guess is as good as mine.
.
AB: Crying, burning, that definitely sounds like love to me!
At least how I remember it-
.
Steve: Well it was only bad for her briefly – we started, 2 seconds later we stopped, and she was okay within an hour.
.
AB: Do you think she tells people this story?
.
Steve: No, she’s a Rabbi now. I doubt she tells anyone.

……….I wasn’t very surprised when I heard that Bob Guccione died recently. I knew he was getting old. The last time I saw him in 2005, was a very memorable moment for me. I had been to his house in New York many times over the years. I usually would go there to deliver prints and meet with his ever present assistant Jane, who was like a family member to Bob and perhaps his closest associate at Penthouse. This time around Jane organized a meeting to meet with him directly to discuss a film project we were beginning to produce in Amsterdam.
I waited in the massive living room of the mansion feeling as though I was at the Metropolitan Museum of Art instead of a private residence. There were priceless Picasso’s, Degas, Renoir, you name it, all over the walls.
Bob entered and greeted me with a smile, and he began our conversation by complimenting me about my work for the magazine and always encouraged me to continue to push the erotic envelope. I noticed right away that the once beautiful voice was reduced to barely a whisper, the result of a painful battle with throat cancer. Jane told me he had been fighting the disease for some time. Bob was always on the cutting edge of medical science and apparently found some elixir that prolonged his life for another five years. That’s typical of the kind of man he was, exploring and pushing the envelope of life to the very end. Bob may you rest in peace.
……….Tiger and Eric arrived at my hotel room in Beverly Hills at around 1:00 in the afternoon. I had just arrived in Los Angeles the night before and didn’t have the perfunctory meeting with the couple prior to the shoot, just so that we could out line the paramaters and discuss all of the ground work. What they would or wouldn’t do in front of the camera for example is usually discussed before couples are called to perform on set.
These two were planning to get married anyway, and were hot and heavy, ready to go as soon as they arrived. This of course made me feel more at ease and able to concentrate on creating a good shot.
Although this couple had no inhibitions whatsoever in performing these sexual acts in front of me, they were not active in the LA adult film making community. It appeared at the time that they were destined to become professional entertainers, although they were both holding down civilian jobs.
There is nothing more difficult than making an artful picture of two people making love, especially when they release.
