Live Adult Cam Chat from RX9.com goes on the air with controversial radio host Bubba the Love Sponge
February 13, 2004 (Press Release) --
Tampa, Florida (February 13, 2004) - Media cross pollination found a new variation when adult video chat site www.RX9.com and WXTB Tampa radio station 98 Rock shared audiences and feeds last month.
Jim Arters, owner and operator of RX9, said, “No one has ever done a live video feed from the internet along with talking to the model in person.”
Bubba Todd Clem, whose Bubba The Love Sponge show carries the RX9 feed, agreed on the air. “I don’t know that this has ever been done on radio before. If anybody’s been able to do a Live Internet/Radio Sex show.”
The promotion has become a weekly event on the station and seems to be popular. Arters dreamed up the concept before his site was finished. Why did he choose the most controversial shock jock since Howard Stern? “My neighbor is Bubba’s best friend,” said Arters. “I’ve actually been waiting until all of the software was done before I approached him to start this.”
Bubba the Love Sponge regularly deals with subjects considered taboo and controversial.
“We can’t get in trouble,” said Clem, who has had his share of troubles with the FCC. “Because we’re not broadcasting the video portion. And the audio portion will be Bubba-tized and edited to be radio friendly.” Clem and radio network Clear Channel Communications have recently been in hot water over content on his broadcast, which the FCC deemed indecent.
The event has had more appreciable impact on RX9 than the radio station. RX9 has had performer Rikki unable to get into her own virtual chat-room because too many users jammed the video stream. “I’ll bet they never had that problem before!” Clem said.
RX9 is part of a network of sites powered by 2Much Internet Services. Mark Prince, president of 2much.net, said “When things go well with one site, things go better with all our sites. The traffic Jim has generated with his radio thing has been great. The first Rikki show generated so many drooling surfers that it jammed the servers. Additional Servers were quickly put into place to handle the Rikki streams that Bubba's listeners wanted.”
“We have gone through some growing pains on this as this has been ground breaking content for a radio market,” Arters said. “Everything is great now. Sales have gone up tremendously. Like one of my models said ‘The only bad publicity is no publicity’.”
