BrokeStraightBoys.TV - a reality series about gay-for-pay pornstars and the Denver company that employs them

BluMedia announced today that the 8-episode reality show BrokeStraightBoys.TV will be made available for free online for the first time this weekend. The series was previously aired nationally on cable and AT&T U-verse to subscribers of Here TV as a pay-per-view product. The first episode will premiere Saturday, February 27 at 10pm. Additional episodes will be released each Saturday culminating in the season finale on April 16, 2016.
 

Without showing nudity or sex, the series focuses on straight men that create gay adult films and the multi-million dollar company that provides the platform.

The show examines the dynamic relationships between Mark Erickson, owner of BluMedia, his staff, and the models. Every month Mark houses a select number of these straight young men in his multi-million dollar mansion while they do scenes at a nearby studio. 

"There are a lot of people who have a negative view of the entire gay for pay business, but these are grown adults who are capable of making their own decisions," says Erickson. "There are plenty of positives that I believe the show will help showcase. We have brought guys off the streets. We have models that were homeless and this helped them get back on their feet."

"Critics often don't believe that we're straight, but in certain circumstances, a lot of us need the money so bad that you do what you have to. It becomes less of an issue about sexuality and more about survival. When you have no money… can't buy diapers for your kid… you'll do what it takes to provide for your family," says performer Jimmy Johnson. "I'm supporting my family and that's what a real man does. It would take me months at a fast food restaurant to make what I do in a weekend."
 

"We're just like one big dysfunctional family, except that we have sex with each other," says performer Kaden Alexander. "Broke Straight Boys is like my second family."
