LOS ANGELES—Tommy Gunn was a recent guest on "The Stoner Jesus Podcast" and "The Martin Talk Show."
The award-winning performer joined "The Stoner Jesus Podcast" hosts Joe Kline and SithKitten for a conversation on redemption, survival and sobriety. The former AVN Male Performer of the Year also provided updates on his literary and documentary projects, including his new book and his latest collaborations with filmmaker Joel Van der Molen.
During the interview, Gunn detailed his time as a dancer in the 1990s and discussed his prior drug use as a young man, revealing how substance abuse nearly cost him his life and recounting the turning point that led him to sobriety. Gunn credited a renewed interest in bodybuilding and healthy living, combined with his entrance into the adult industry at age 36, as the catalyst for his recovery. "The adult industry saved my life," Gunn asserted, explaining that he realized he could not perform or act at his best if he continued to abuse substances.
Gunn also discussed his new book, Tommy Gunn: Unloaded, and teased the imminent release of the audiobook version. Gunn touched on his documentary work with Van der Molen, specifically the documentary Fans Only: The Human Side of Porn and the follow-up, Fans Only 2: Dreams Fame Desire. During the conversation, Gunn dropped a hint about a third, yet-to-be-titled installment of the Fans Only series.
The episode also featured Gunn in a lighthearted moment as he recounted a behind-the-scenes story from the set of the blockbuster adult film Pirates. While filming a sword-fighting scene with co-star Evan Stone, the director wanted to extract a more intense performance from Gunn, so unbeknownst to Gunn, the director told Stone to provoke him intentionally during the take. The ploy worked perfectly, resulting in a genuine rise out of Gunn and a reaction so authentic that the very next take was the one used in the final movie.
Gunn also regaled the hosts with stories from his younger days, including the invention of an electric-powered bong made from an old hair dryer that he used inside a friend’s car, resulting in the vehicle being completely filled with smoke.

It was an honor having Tommy on the show and hearing some great stories as well as learning more about the Fans Only documentary series and the things that Tommy is passionate about!”
