[2] It is hosted by Ashley West [3] and April Hall as well as guest contributors such as academics and writers with insight into the subjects covered. The series has interviewed notable golden age participants such as Ginger Lynn, Sharon Mitchell, Kay Parker, Jeff Stryker and Jennifer Welles. Starting in 2013, The Rialto Report podcast was initially released weekly but in 2015 shifted to a roughly monthly schedule.
Hosts West and Hall served as consultants to the HBO show The Deuce and as consulting producers on the Netflix show Crime Scene: The Times Square Killer. [4]
Format
The Rialto Report delivers content in three main formats:

- Investigative articles unearth information about the early adult industry, and the social and cultural context in which it operated.
- Photo essays of previously unpublished, rare photographs offer behind-the-scenes looks into the golden age industry and the people who were part of it.
