Rod Barry Shares Recipes, Career Advice

As to be expected, the entries on Rod Barry World are just as much of a grab-bag as a conversation Rod Barry in real life. Some are surprisingly well-written, spell-checked and charming (sober Rod), others are maddeningly circuitous, tail-chasing and belligerent (Rod at 3 a.m. at a club). But consistency is dull and that’s what makes him a legend.

Here’s an example of sober Rod, from an entry where he answers questions from readers:

Have you ever been asked to do something on film and have said no?

Yes,
I was asked to do a gay bareback video once and I said no. I value my
own life as well as the people I might influence. On the other hand, I
hope that people won’t consider me hypocritical, but I have done
straight porn unprotected.

And here’s a drunk Rod, from an entry entitled, I am JESUS…….Recipe Addition:

So my mom can’t cook!!! I love her so much…Only thing she can cook is Cabbage Rolls and chicken and dumplings…I love her..tonight I am having Spaghetti and Chicken pattis. I have to work mannana. Peace yallllllllll

What other secrets does his blog reveal? Rod’s got a weak stomach:

Everyone in the business knows that I’ve thrown up on a set a few times when someone gets shit on my dick or something grosses me out. When I was directing “Down the Drain” I actually had to run off the set a couple of times & throw up.

What a pussy! Surely someone as enterprising as our Rod could turn such a “shortcoming” into an enterprising business.
