This is a rare interview with Asian raincoater starlet Maxi by Snowman for Raincoat Reviews. It was recorded on 06.25.06 at the First Annual Blue Syren Dinner at the conclusion of the LA Erotica show in Los Angeles. At the time, Maxi was relatively new to the industry. Maxi is also known as Max, Maxine and Max Mikita. Although she has been shooting scenes for over four years now, she keeps a low profile and many Asian porn fans continue to "discover" her each year. Maxi often performs anal, DP, a2m and other nasty acts in her scenes. On her most recent modeling agency page, it states she actually prefers to book anal scenes. At one time Maxine participated on the SRR message forum. Check out the "New APH Max! (Maxine)" thread here for more information and her latest news. Another recommended discussion thread related to Maxi is "Max Mikita is Hot". There is also a discussion thread specifically related to this interview and some additional pictures posted here.

This is an interview from the vaults with Haven, a former contract girl with Jill Kelly Productions (JKP). It was recorded a little over six years ago on 11.08.03 while she was appearing as a feature dancer at Gold Club Centerfolds near Sacramento, California. As it turns out, 2003 was the sunset of Haven's career as a porn star. She started working the adult industry in 1999 at the age of 20. In total, Haven shot 74 titles, nearly all of which were shot for JKP. In August 2005, JKP declared bankruptcy and Penthouse acquired the assets of the studio including the back catalog and unreleased titles. Because of this, many titles that Haven appeared in are now out of print. Click here to see an up to date listing of all Haven's movies currently available for purchase on DVD. Click here to see an up to date listing of all Haven's movies available for immediate viewing on Videobox. A related discussion thread can be found here on the SRR forum. At this time, Haven does not maintain a blog or website to the best of knowledge. Please note that the audio quality of this podcast is much lower than my recent interviews. This was one of my first interviews and at the time, I was using an old portable cassette recorder I used to record colleges lectures on. Podcasts were just getting started and the original plan was simply to post a text transcript. Your feedback, suggestions and comments are always appreciated. Also, it would be very helpful if someone created a transcript of this interview for posting on my website. Please let me know if you plan on tackling this project to avoid duplication of efforts. Last but not least, if you enjoyed this interview, please consider making a donation in any amount. Special thanks to Gold Club Centerfolds for permitting me to interview Haven.

I recorded this interview with Lucky Starr at the Erotica LA show in Los Angeles this past June. Lucky is a relatively new "Asian Porno Hottie" who came on the scene in April of 2009. She's a little bit older than many newbies and brings a rich work experience in performing arts to the table. Before becoming an adult model, Lucky worked in professional theatre and as a professional cheerleader for the NBA. Her maturity, openness and friendly, chatty personality shine in this revealing two hour interview. Audio interview Copyright © 2009, Snowman's Raincoat Reviews. All Rights Reserved.

This is an interview with veteran porn director (and shooter) Jim Powers. It was recorded on January 11, 2008 in Las Vegas, Nevada at the Adult Entertainment Expo. Jim directed his first adult movie over sixteen years ago. Since then, he is credited with 757 titles according to IAFD, but the real number is likely substantially higher. This works out to 47+ movies a year, or nearly one a week continuously for nearly two decades straight. Practically all Jim's work is hard gonzo, but not without a sense of humor and often more attention is given to a plot than one might expect. As Jim discusses in the interview, he strives to create unique, memorable scenes that will still please even the most jaded raincoater. Some of his popular series' over the years have included American Bukkake, The Babysitter, Gag Factor, Guttermouths, Kelly the Coed, Perverted Stories and The Violation of ... lesbian series. In 2004, Powers formed his own production studio called Powersville. The venture has proved successful and two successful series have resulted: Filthy Things and School Girls. He continues to shoot movies for JM Productions, Sin City and other adult studios as well. His latest private label productions are The Animal, Bound and Little Runaway #02, "A punk rock love story."

This is an interview with Latina porn star Sativa Rose. It was recorded on the set of Barely 18 #19 on April 30, 2005 shortly after Sativa finished a BGG three-way with Courtney Simpson and Dick Nasty. The shoot took place at Sin City's studio in Chatsworth, CA. At the time of this recording, Sativa had been involved in adult entertainment for about one year and five months during which she shot over 100 scenes. Now, three years later, Sativa is still working in porn and the number of scenes she has appeared in has more than tripled making her one of the most prolific Latina performers ever. At the time of this post, her DVD scenes alone number 321. In our conversation, Sativa talks in detail about her experiences in porn, background, future plans and the importance of her Latina heritage. It is very interesting to note how her perspective on some issues has changed given the progression of career toward raunchier content since 2006. Additional photographs of Sativa taken on the set and a related discussion thread can be found here on the SRR forum. Also, stop by Sativa's website for exclusive content and a new forum.

This is a rare interview with Asian porn star Lyla Lei. It was recorded on a rainy day in March of 2005 in Glendale, California on the set of Mayhem/Sin City's Two in the Can. In this leisurely and candid conversation, Lyla talks about her background, good and bad experiences in the adult industry, personal life and plans for the future. After shooting over 250 (mostly hardcore gonzo anal) scenes over a period of five years, this past October Lyla suddenly announced her intention to leave the adult industry. Through her MySpace blog she told fans that she wished to pursue mainstream acting and/or modeling and was retiring her adult screen name. She now goes by "Terri." Additional photographs of Lyla from the set and a related discussion thread can be found here on the SRR forum. Also, additional information about Lyla can be found on her Asian Porno Hottie Starlet Page. Many thanks to director Jim Powers and Sin City for the opportunity to visit the set!
