About Us

JRL CHARTS is “The Official Gay Adult Film Industry Online Publication” servicing retail store merchants, wholesale distributors, retail webmasters and gay consumers with gay adult film news, gays and lesbians sex toy news, mainstream news and entertainment news..  JRL was conceived by our founder Ralph WilMacheck on October 3, 2003 with a weekly newsletter that was distributed to retail store outlets nationwide.

After being a salesman at several distribution centers across the country for a number of years, learning how the business operated from the inside out, Ralph then went into video retail management for 12 years.  In 2006, Ralph managed to attract another veteran of the Gay adult marketplace Christopher Thais who at the time was Vice President of Marketing for the largest Gay Adult Film wholesale distribution company in the country and handled over 34 gay adult film studios’ marketing strategy to retailers.

Thais came on board as President of Programming and within a year took over as President and CEO of JRL Communications Group. With Christopher Thais’ knowledge of this business, JRL was taken to another level.  Watching the gay adult film industry grow the gay genre of the adult film world wasn’t being represented enough in mainstream style as the heterosexual market was.

Different regions will do better with different genres, and fetishes this is clear, but we cannot base those issues on the blood and sweat of producers and distributors who go through serious competitive techniques in order to market and sell their product to retail, mail order and internet markets.

With over 180 professional gay production companies, another 80 independent studios, 164 Adult Novelty manufacturers and 10 distributors, you undoubtedly have a drive to make sure that your brand is in every retail establishment in the free marketplace.  Special Event promoters want their brands non-stop in front of potential attendees.

JRL CHARTS has built a solid reputation on covering the LGBT B2B Adult Entertainment Industry for more than 7 years.  We take great pride in our duty to this business and will continue to deliver the LGBT B2B Adult Entertainment News that no one else covers so that you the reader/viewer know what is going on the our industry up to the minute.

Everyone knows the old saying “This is hot, you have to stock it”. That phrase has been around since I first started in this business in 1986.  For the past 7 years, JRL CHARTS has been the Leader in LGBT B2B Adult Entertainment news.

This is the premier online news media that only targets the LGBT Adult Entertainment marketplace.  When you want to know key statistics, brand names, Seasonal goods, New Releases, background information on a movie, product and/or studio and distributor, you would utilize JRL  CHARTS to gather your research.

This is what we are here for!

We will always give all brands attention because we know this industry has a variety of goods and services for the public and we cannot ignore one genre, fetish or fantasy concept based on politics and personal feelings.   However, we will not promote any type of illegal behavior in any way shape or form.

JRL CHARTS was started with the goal of supporting manufacturers, producers, distributors, performers, retail merchants and most of all LGBT Adult consumers.  We will continue to do this for years to come and we thank you for your visiting our network daily.  On behalf of the staff and management of JRL Gay Media Network we thank you for the overwhelming support you continue to given us.
