Jim Steele's Podcast Confession: The Untold Story Behind the Industry

James Williams · 2026-09-20

You know that feeling when someone finally says what everyone's been thinking? That's what happened when Jim Steele sat down with the hosts of "The High Patrol" podcast. Steele—writer, publicist, and co-author of the memoir *Tommy Gunn: Unloaded*—dropped by the show recently. And what started as a casual chat about cannabis, comedy, and variety turned into something way more real. ### The Book That Took Everyone by Surprise So here's the thing about *Tommy Gunn: Unloaded*. It came out in Fall 2025 through Tepris Press, and it's been quietly making waves ever since. "We are extremely proud of this book," Steele said during the episode. "We always enjoy hearing from readers who say it presented such an intimate portrait of Tommy." He didn't hold back his gratitude either. Steele gave a shout-out to Nikki Anderson and Jon Ford at Tepris Press for "bringing this across the finish line in grand fashion." You can tell he means it. ### When a Joke Reveals a Truth Then the conversation shifted to Steele's work at Blue Movie PR. He talked about how he tries to put clients in the best light and promote projects they've poured their heart into. At one point, Steele mentioned that performers "work their asses off." Co-host SithKitten didn't miss a beat: "Literally!" Everyone laughed. But here's the thing—underneath the joke was something serious. They all agreed on a deeper truth: the hard work of performers, who are the heart of the business, often goes unnoticed. Steele reflected on this. He wants fans and industry professionals to remember the dedication their favorite stars bring to their craft. The passion. The relentless effort. All the stuff that happens behind the scenes to create the content audiences love. > "These performers give everything to their craft. The least we can do is acknowledge it." That's not just talk. It's a reminder that behind every project is a person who cares deeply about what they do. ### Where to Catch the Show New episodes of "The High Patrol" with Stoner Jesus and SithKitten go live on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays at 10pm ET.

That's worth talking about. And it's worth remembering. So next time you're scrolling through content, take a second. Think about the effort behind it. The hours. The passion. The people.
