In a move that has the gay porn world buzzing, legendary Raging Stallion Studios founder Chris Ward has emerged from his private retirement to give a rare interview. And the person who coaxed the titan out of silence is none other than performer and producer HungerFF, for his podcast, “Legends of Fisting.”
A Full-Circle Moment
For HungerFF, this was more than just a major scoop; it was a deeply personal and significant event that brought his career full circle. The connection between the two men goes back to the very beginning of HungerFF’s journey in the industry.
“This isn’t just an interview—it’s a full-circle moment. Chris gave me my first porn contract at 18 and helped define my career.”
Ward, who has remained firmly out of the spotlight since selling Raging Stallion, participated in a written interview, a format that respected his privacy while allowing him to share his story. HungerFF, determined to capture the spirit of a real conversation, got creative.
Bringing a Legend to the Mic
The challenge of interviewing a reclusive figure via text didn’t stop HungerFF from delivering a dynamic episode. He embraced the unique opportunity, using modern techniques to bridge the gap and craft a compelling listening experience.
“With his blessing, I was able to use new tools to recreate the energy of sitting across from him again.”
This innovative approach is part of a growing trend where creators are using podcasts to preserve the industry’s history, offering fans a direct line to the icons who shaped it. By blending storytelling with technology, HungerFF has ensured that a new generation can hear from a man who, as he posted on X (formerly Twitter), “helped define a generation of porn.”
Why It Matters Now
Chris Ward isn’t just any former studio head. In the 2000s, Raging Stallion Studios was a powerhouse, famous for its hyper-masculine, rugged aesthetic that became a signature style of the era. Ward’s retirement marked the end of an era, and he has since become an almost mythical figure. His return to the public conversation, even in written form, is a major event for long-time fans and industry historians.
The “Legends of Fisting” podcast is quickly carving out a niche for itself by documenting these crucial stories, providing a platform for the pioneers and game-changers of the adult world. This latest episode is a testament to the power of personal connections and the enduring impact of those who built the industry.
