    EP 15: Nina White on OnlyFans, Adult Films, Manifestation & Breaking Industry Stereotypes

    Adult performer and content creator Nina White joins The Rodriguez Show for an honest conversation about her journey from cam sites to major studios, building a successful OnlyFans brand, and the realities of working in the adult industry. Nina opens up about leaving her 9-to-5 job to pursue a career she genuinely loves, how she landed her first mainstream scenes, the business side of content creation, and why she believes the adult industry deserves to be viewed as a legitimate art form rather than through outdated stereotypes. We also discuss manifestation, social media, maintaining longevity in the industry, setting boundaries, working with major studios, dealing with scammers, and her future beyond adult entertainment. "I would love people mostly to understand that people can be in this industry and it not come from trauma or survival or any dark place. It can truly just be a fun job that someone loves."

    EP 13: She Bet on Herself (No Backup Plan) | Hailey Wild Interview

    In this episode of The Rodriguez Show, Hailey Wild pulls up and gets real about everything that's changed since the last time she was on. From making the move from San Diego to LA, to going through the pandemic, to finally stepping into her sound, she talks about what that growth actually looked like behind the scenes. Not the polished version… the figuring-it-out-as-you-go version. She breaks down the making of her debut EP, how performing live shaped her music, and what it's like putting deeply personal experiences into songs like "Florida Coast." The conversation also touches on the LA music scene, social media as an artist, and why she's fully committed to music with no backup plan. It's one of those conversations that's about music, but also about growth, pressure, and trusting yourself even when you don't have everything figured out yet. 🎧 Listen to her EP + more: https://linktr.ee/haileywildmusic

    EP 9: Danie on Alchemy, Healing Through Music & Walking the Runway at The Broad

    Cesar sits down with singer, songwriter, and producer Danie (@steeelydanie) for her return to The Rodriguez Show — this time out in the open air at Henry Acuna Park in her home turf. Danie opens up about how music found her before she ever chose it, the emotional labor behind her self-produced Alchemy EP (out now on all streaming platforms), and what it meant to finally walk the runway at The Broad Museum in LA — and end up in Vogue. She also gets into how nature fuels her creative process, the honest and sometimes jarring experience of putting her real feelings into her lyrics, and how losing her Instagram right before the release taught her to keep pushing anyway. This one is real, vulnerable, and inspiring from start to finish.
