The crew reflects on Bryce Adams and Brian Adam interview and property tour.

0:00Are all batteries the same? That's like asking if all soccer players are the same. Take Messi, the most decorated player ever. Is there any other player who has achieved that? No, just him. Now take Duracell. Is there any other battery with Power Boost ingredients inside? No, just Duracell. Remember, goats only trust goats because they're built different and Messi only trusts Duracell.

DP Seth, EP Brad. Hello. I'm Graham. We are back. We just spent a couple days profiling one of the top OnlyFans stars, Bryce Adams.

1:08Most money you've ever made in a year? Thirteen, fourteen million? Your guys' thoughts coming out of this experience. Whoever wants to take it away first. Go ahead, Brad. Why do I have to go first? No, it's fine. I'll go first. Interesting, I think, is the key word. It is amazing seeing what they do to get views, and it's nowhere near what I would have expected going into it. What do you mean?

1:48OnlyFans, the reputation that the site is exclusively not safe for content, um that's not the case bryce though dabbles in not safe for content maybe more than dabbles and not safe and not super content but that's how she's that's how that's how she's made all her money but what we were there for was seeing how she's using other mainstream social media platforms to drive you know people to only fans but also just to get views on social media and increase your popularity that way and so we're there and we're filming we're seeing like behind the scenes what she's filming and it's just kind of these like skits that anybody could like film at home like the production value is low but on your cell phone cameras right cell phone cameras coming up with like on the spot right on the spot like little skits and it's like okay so that translates to millions of views and then millions of dollars.

2:47And so it's just interesting seeing how it all kind of comes together to see how all that gets made. And I will say too that Bryce and Brian, two of the nicest people we've met in terms of showing up and the guests, in this case, They're hosting us at their home slash office, being accommodating. Over-delivering. Over-delivering, welcoming us in there. You don't get that. We don't get that on every shoot. 99 % of the shoots, we do. But it's not every shoot, and they were certainly accommodating to us. Yeah, they couldn't have been nicer. I was, yeah, it was weird. Not in the sense of what people would probably assume why it was weird.

3:34But from my perspective, right? I've, from a young age, been interested in video. Got into this. Love cameras. Got into editing, lighting, all this stuff. Take the show, for instance. How much work goes into planning a shoot? And how much work goes into the actual shoots and the post-production of those shoots? It's a ton of work. We put a ton of work into all this stuff. And then you watch three people be like, what if we did this? And they shoot it. And then it gets 20 million views in a day. and it's just like, it's a little disheartening. But it's also like, I can't, it's just like, I'm a little jaded.

4:17Yeah. But it's also like, what the f***? Like, we worked so hard and they were just like spitting out bulls*** ideas and it's just like. Although, yeah, I mean, I think we all give them a ton of credit because what is, what I think is clear from having been there is like it's not half-assed, which is an interesting term to use given the industry we're talking about, but they are very clearly smart. I don't think there's a doubt in anybody's mind coming away from spending time with them that these aren't two intelligent people that have figured out through their own intellect how to become the best of what they do because there are plenty of people who screw on camera have only fans accounts or you know any any of these other platforms and have not figured out how to monetize it even a fraction as successfully as they have.

5:22And your comment about, you know, we're watching them make these, you know, silly videos for IG and Facebook and YouTube or TikTok, wherever else they put them. I mean, that we were. But the fascinating thing about it was, you know, they make organic ad revenue from these platforms for ads that run in conjunction with that safe for work content that they put on those platforms. But that's all gravy to them. Like, that's almost a rounding error because for them, that content is a marketing tool to drive people to become paid subscribers on OnlyFans where they have an eight-figure business. Admittedly, like, I was the one that kind of forced this through on our end.

6:14I was kind of constantly... Yeah, full transparency. like you're the only one that wanted to do it yeah and not like in a like nobody here it's not like we work with a bunch of prudes or anything like that but it was just a situation of like like we said how much work goes into all this stuff and it's not like she's a household name or anything like that but as she is it was interesting i was i was impressed by her for sure i uh i might get some pushback on this one but i think that's not think that's my favorite episode we've done so far this season really only because completely different yeah my interest in it was just kind of learning about this business model because it's to use a word that's gonna get bleeped again I mean I think most people think it's just on camera and making millions and like it is not that for them like there's very clearly strategy and intellect and this whole back end use another term that's weird to use given the industry infrastructure they've put in place and I just thought you know maybe this brings me to the next question but I like the challenge of figuring out how to do that in a way that was broadcast safe that wasn't alienating our audience or any of our partners because there's very clearly opportunity for this to have turned into something much different and crass and you know exploiting everything that all the stereotypical type stuff so I'll shut up now no keep going do you do you think we were successful in that I I think we created a finished episode that was consistent in quality and tonality mm-hmm of any other one we would do so from that standpoint Dave I think we hit the mark I think they're always gonna be people that are scratching their heads as to why we might choose to profile a certain person but I think one of the things that I like about having the opportunity to now do with this show is you know profile needle movers thought leaders people that are kind of the best at what they do and there's obviously a large amount of people that are interested in her yeah whether it be what for one reason or another, but that they're interested in her.

9:01So I think having, doing a profile like we did with her is going to be interesting to a lot of people. I do think it's going to be, it's going to alienate a lot of people as well. I think it already has. I mean, if you read the comments, like there's, it seems to be one specific kind of person. I don't know if that's the right way to put it. Although any time we profile somebody that is notably left or right leaning, you get a lot of comments that, oh, you lost me. Yeah, exactly. Alienating only really matters if they unfollow or unsubscribe. Because leaving a comment doesn't, that's just engaging.

9:47Yeah. I mean, that stuff's only been up for 24 hours at this point. so it is like you'll see like 13 comments and they will be things like you know like disappointed in Graham for this blah blah blah but I think if I wasn't involved in the episode and I was familiar with the show it's what I would have expected to come out of an episode of this like and we're not the first major publication to profile no no I know but I'm saying like this it seems like the episode you would have done on an OnlyFans star it doesn't seem like you were trying to exploit anything or trying to get clicks. It just seems like a genuine episode of the show.

10:26You mentioned how I was kind of the only one that was initially excited about doing this. That happens often with episodes. Somebody flush the toilet. Do you think that's a number one or number two? Which toilet is that?

10:44I think it's the one. Keep this in. Keep this in. Yeah. Son of a bitch.

10:54This all stays in. This all stays in. This is good stuff. Do we have a camera pointing at the pipes to really capture the... Yeah, cut to pipe cam.

11:10It's like the start of a second. Yeah. Alright, it's time for the pipe cam. Mr. Cam's leg of pipes, like, vibrating.

11:26so now on the other side of it having profiled her and put the episode together would you do it or not do it if you were making the decision from the outset each of you I don't I don't think I have based on what you know today yeah i don't think i haven't based on what i know today i don't have enough evidence to the contrary to go against my opinion before which was i probably would not do it but i think there's still lots of time for that to change where if this ends up doing really well for us because we just published a lot of the clips and you know yesterday and the show goes out this weekend uh i guess by the time you time this airs you've already seen the episode but um to me it's still too early to tell so in this moment right here right now i would still say i would not have done it uh i mean i'm happy we did it i think it's fun to do things that are you know not typical of just some you know actor or athlete that's you know those are interesting and cool as well but to do something i like but just to broaden the scope of what we do um and also like you know i mean going into it it's really easy to assume what somebody's going to be like especially somebody who does like only fans for a living but she was i thought incredibly smart insanely sweet like genuine like so i'm happy that we get to shed light on that aspect of her in independent of performance of the content i think it was worth doing just for quality of the story, actually, I would argue.

13:13Yeah, and to be clear, I'm happy with how everything turned out. It's just, you know, was it worth doing it? That's what I'm waiting to... So tell about the call you got a number of days before the filming. Oh, right. So we were going into this episode thinking, let's profile this OnlyFans star and how she's built this incredible business. And that was kind of, that would be the story. That's the episode. And then a couple days before, we get a call from Bryce herself saying, hey, Brian and I, Brian being a long time boyfriend, 15 years dating back to high school. Bryce telling me Brian I are actually going to separate we're breaking up and I was like at first I was like is this a joke like I this was the first time I had ever like talked to Bryce I was like I don't know her well enough to be like maybe she's just trying to be funny I'm like so Bryce is this like is this real and he's like yeah yeah like it we're kind of making our way through it but when you'll visit it's kind of going to be our last hurrah because he's then moving to vegas and uh i was like damn like okay like we immediately have another storyline in there and you know the background of their relationship is it's always been an open relationship i think just from a human interest level people in that business having an open relationship and then it going bad it's like and they're still on good terms you know that you know they say they're still on good terms which is good for them and but the human interest level that i thought was super interesting of like okay only fan stars adult adult content stars open relationship they're going bad is it because of the business and we kind of got into that a little bit in the episode where it did relate back to the business as we saw with tyler and some of the decisions that they started to make and why the split ended up happening.

15:18I'll shut up now. No, it was a little reality TV. There's a love triangle within their little group that they film with. And it's kind of easy to take a step back and be like, yeah, of course, what you're doing is messy. It's not going to work. The more interesting part of that phone call with Bryce, though, in terms of how things could have happened differently, if I made a different decision, which it would have been a stupid decision for me to make, was Bryce was like, do you think we should wait to, like, maybe we don't tell Graham about the breakup. I can, like, tell it to him on camera, like, when we're there.

15:57And we can, like, it can be, like, his real reaction. Like, I mean, that you, whatever you want to do with that. But, like, it was just a thought that I had. And I thought about it for all of, like, two seconds before I was like, yeah, I don't know how that would work. We like to have research done. Right. I was like, that would be weird, because then, like, I was envisioning a world where Graham is like, so how about your relationship, guys? And it would be all... Imagine Graham finding out that they've broken up. You knew the whole time. In the shoot, and Graham's like, what the f***? I probably would have been heated.

16:32I give her credit, though, for trying to do some pre-production and ideate with you. I mean she had the best of intentions with all of that yeah it was interesting as part of the prep talking to Brian ahead of time and Brian giving context and you probably would have found out because you talked to Brian ahead of time maybe even if I had to be like okay let's not tell Graham Brian probably would have to do you know if it depends I don't know if you would have brought it up or not but he definitely had strong feelings yeah I don't know that I have anything else to say on that topic other than is interesting to capture because not only were they high school sweethearts and have been together forever but as you stated they're co-owners of the business and how 50 50 50 and how that dynamic changes as they now aren't together anymore is anybody's guess but you know hopefully for both of their sakes it won't be to the detriment of their business and then also they can each live you know happily ever after I would say the funniest thing though independent of this uh that was brought up you know just because I'm curious I was like how do you guys avoid getting diseases yeah you know everybody's like screwing everybody and uh I assume because this is like a successful industry that there's, you know, a process and all that in place for testing, etc.

18:17And I spoke to that in a very articulate, professional way. There are designated testing centers that have databases and you go in and you have to be tested a certain window before you're going to do a shoot. They also have an online database so that, you know, if I'm collaborating with somebody and I want to look up and see when their last test date was, I can look it up. I can see the results, see they were all clear, look like through like their history. So it's very, it's very like open, very communicative and everyone's very safe about all that. And I'm like, okay, like that makes sense. I get it.

18:51And then Brian, we sit down with him and he's like, oh, that's all bulls**t. She's holding out on you. She's like, oh yeah, we did a great job. Yeah. after all of us had f***ing chlamydia. Yeah. And what was so great about Brian is, like, they're both, again, clearly smart, but Brian provided a lot of the color that you didn't get, maybe, in the Bryce interview, so they complimented each other pretty well. But I wonder if them having broken up, like, the week before that, added to the color that he was adding. Like, a little bit of, like, a... Like, a... you perhaps although I will say even on the zoom zoom resumes we had with them ahead of time before they were broken up he was the same way okay just more kind of like almost like Charles Barkley-esque and just his bluntness and whatever there are certain points in the interview with Brian though where you could tell he was thinking for a second and then decided to wing it and so it's those moments that I do wonder if he's right that is correct every time where he would literally be like something crazy and you're just like a lot of like a lot of Brian's interview as he's saying and I'm like well we can't use any of this like when he's like miming like a hot dog bun it's like yeah I don't know how we're gonna edit this do we use that in the clip we did yeah in the clip yeah I mean we bleep but we show him miming the I I mean, sure.

20:25Sure. On that note. Well, hang on. There's one thing I want to bring up. Because it didn't make the edit. And it was my favorite thing that happened the whole shoot. One of my favorite things that happened. On the baseball field? Yeah. When Graham fell into the fence. I don't even remember. You don't remember that? You were running? Wait, I thought I didn't wipe out. Or did I wipe out? You just. So two of the funny things about baseball was. So we have. We shot their production meeting. Which. I think they were just kind of doing that for us. Like, oh, we should have a, we showed, like, I'm sure they have meetings that are productive.

20:58But the first thing they said in that meeting was today, we'll play baseball, we'll get to the field, we'll free play for an hour, and then we'll tape a couple of things. And it was just like, that probably didn't need to be in a meeting. It was just funny to me. Anyway, we don't have to include that. Like, imagine us having a meeting. It's like, cool. So we get there, everybody free play for a while. Recess. Recess. Everybody getting on the swings. so anyway Graham's in the off field shagging balls so it had rained like that day because we're in Florida so it rains every day and yeah Brian hit one like to the fence and Graham was running to it and you didn't technically wipe out but you did like jump and like land in mud and then slide it into the fence and I was like oh I can't wait for this to make the clip and then we didn't end up doing anything with baseball so we never got to show that we'll show it now we'll show it now hey it's Kelly Rowland you may not know this, but I have eczema, so I get how it can steal your time.

21:53But why let eczema take over when you can talk to your doctor about ebglyss? Ebglyss, Lubrikizumab LBKZ, a 250 milligram per two milliliter injection, is a prescription medicine used to treat adults and children 12 years of age and older who weigh at least 88 pounds or 40 kilograms with moderate to severe eczema.

23:26that's what this podcast is for but i guess the the context there is we went to the baseball field why it was baseball was because brian played baseball in high school and it ties into the other business that i think is honestly to me more like eye-opening than the only fan stuff because to me, I understand that sex sells. Like, that's, like, not everybody is successful at OnlyFans, not OnlyFans, but, like, I understand how it can be successful. But the fact that Bryce and Brian together, when they started their baseball bat business in high school, that's now sold, I think, to date, more than$25 million worth, according to Bryce.

24:09Like, how you just think to, like, let's go buy baseball bats from mom and pop stores and start selling them across the country. Let's export them to South Korea. Let's find out where we can attack this seemingly very niche thing and just have it go crazy and make all this money off of it is insane to me. I would never in a million years think that you could do millions of dollars in sales off of reselling baseball bats, but they did it. And not everybody thinks to do that. So that to me was very impressive. And precisely why I would again argue this was a worthy episode to do. And I'm thrilled we did it.
