Exclusive Interview with Landon El of Brand New Site USA Cam Guys

Landon El is the handsome founder of USA Cam Guys, a new web channel featuring a cam-filled house inhabited by guys that like to have fun. And if you assume that means a non-stop orgy of hardcore man-on-man action, then you’re in for a surprise. This site’s more focused on building a positive community of friends. Landon was nice enough to explain the concept to me yesterday

Landon El of gay porn, er, um, community site USA Cam Guys speaks to Manhunt Daily in an exclusive interview.

Why don’t we start with the obvious for those who don’t know about USA Cam Guys yet. What’s the big idea?

Well, I’m constantly out with my friends, and they’re always getting approached. Approached by girls, and also by straight guys that just want to be around them. You know, we’ll be on an airplane and the flight attendant will ask if she can get her picture taken with them. It just continually shocks me how much positive energy my friends give out.

So that’s where the idea for the site came from. These are businessmen, they’re not guys that have ever done any kind of adult work before. And they’re smart, and energetic, and fun. So this site is a chance for people to get to be around them.

And it sounds like they’re mostly straight. Was it hard to talk a group of straight guys into doing this?

I would say a majority of them are straight for sure. The guy who does all of our web programming, Joe, is also on camera, and I’d say that he’s… open to whoever gives him attention. But they’re mostly straight, yeah.

Like I said, these are businessmen, so they know what they’re getting into. And convincing them did take a while. So I had to start to film them a little bit beforehand and then show them the footage. Once they saw themselves they really loved it, though. We’re presenting a really positive image, and a fun one. You know, it’s like selling a home, once you can see your furniture in it it’s a lot easier to sell.

So what can we actually expect to see on the site? I was watching some of the previews and they’re actually pretty… tame, compared to what I was expecting.

You’ll probably see about ten regular faces. I’m not into flying out a ton of models, so it’ll be a main core, and if you see new faces at the house then they’ll be friends of friends and get incorporated that way. I’m not trying to bullshit you, I’m trying to show you who we really are.

We’re almost trying to promote this as a cable network. So there’s video going all the time. And then there’s a chat going while the TV’s playing, which makes it more interactive. You always feel like you have somebody to talk to. We’re really trying to bring a community together here.

A majority of the still photos are meant to look more like Facebook than like studio shots, although we do have those, too. You know, you flip through pictures of your friends on Facebook and suddenly half an hour’s gone by. You see the fun pictures and you enjoy it. You find the more natural pictures are more appealing. And you try to make it feel as real as possible. It’s entertaining, and if you’ve got time then you can spend hours watching a night rather than just the two or three minutes it takes you to get off.

We’re calling it Life In Briefs, which is kind of a hint of what you’ll be getting. I’m not setting rules on what may or may not happen at the house. We’ve got six live cams going 24 hours a day. And If one of the guys is jerking off or fucking a girl on camera I’m not going to stop it.

Landon El of gay porn, er, um, community site USA Cam Guys speaks to Manhunt Daily in an exclusive interview.

I think one of the reasons that jerkoff porn is so popular is because you can watch it, and it’s easy to imagine yourself fooling around with the guy, or imagine him fooling around with your boyfriend, or girlfriend, or whoever.

So yeah, sex is something you would likely run into, but it’s not marketed that way. I’m not going to compete with Sean Cody and Corbin Fisher, so I’m not going to try that. This channel is a destination where you can really have fun. At the same token, it is a place where you can chat with us and also chat with each other. I know how important it is for people to have personal relationships, which is why we’re trying to build a community. The kind of site you can visit and hang out for a few hours and not just two or three minutes.

And what do they say when people wonder why they’re being followed around by a camera? Do people think they’re celebrities?

The guys are getting attention when they’re out, regardless. I think a lot of people think they’re pro athletes. They’re big boys, 6’4″ and 6’5″, 230 or 240. And there’s almost a competition between them, as far as staying in shape and being ready for pool season.

I think they tell people that we’re shooting a documentary. And most people don’t really ask. The guys are energetic, enjoyable people to be around, and people like to be included in that. And people like to be on camera. I’ve had to cut a lot of people out of footage, let’s put it that way.

So tell us about your own background.

I worked with Fratmen for seven years, and it was time for me to start doing my own thing. I wanted to have more creative control; this is my baby. I was Leo at Fratmen, but now I’m Landon, which is my real name. We all use our real names on the actual site.

You’re featured on the site, too. What’s it like being in front of the cameras and behind them, too?

I think it’s filled with many obstacles, honestly. Having the right amount of staff would certainly help, but since we’re a new start-up we have to do it all ourselves. But you learn how to work smart. The lucky thing is that it’s mutual and the other guys think about business, and they really want to see it succeed.

  1. The guys do look hot, but watching a bunch of straight bros sit around in their underwear talking about pussy is going to get really old, really fast.

  2. Is there really a market for soft-core voyeurism? Jerking off to porn and cam shows are one thing, but paying to see “awesome-guys-be-awesome” is kind of ‘meh’.

  3. Definitely worth a look. The guys are hotter than the average gay-for-pay porn star. It’s worth investigating.

  4. These men are obviously super hot, but it seems as if they want you to pay to watch a bunch of hotties hanging out and doing basically nothing but having thier shirts off here and there. Lets just wait and see.

  5. Eh, it’s a turn-off when a hot guy talks about how hot he is, and how hot his friends are.

  6. I guess I was expecting something different from USA Can Guys. I checked it out last weekend but was disappointed. Two of my favorites from Fratpad Leo/Landon and Dmitry/Joe are the featured guys with some of their friends (like Taj from Fratpad.) Unlike Fratpad, the focus is not nudity and sexual chemistry, but just buddies hanging aound, hitting the gym and riding around in cars. Yes, the guys are attractive, but watching them go about their day is kind of boring. If chatting is your thing, you can do that with the guys and other subscribers. In all fairness, seeing Landon naked was a treat. Not featuring Joe’s natural geeky/sexiness is a big mistake. I was expecting UCG would go where Fratpad won’t, but it actually offers less than Frapad. But that’s partially my fault for having different expectations and UCG’s fault for never defining what their site is about.

    I guess their target audience is gay guys. But, for example, why interview with Manhunt Daily and not offer any gay adult content? What’s the point? Actaully, UCG’s is a PG13 (sometimes R rated) Youtube channel (w/ live chat) that charges a fee.

  7. Great, honest review! I checked it out too and thought, “I see enough douches walking around town and on TV enough already, why would I want to see more?” Those girls need to get over themselves.

  8. Thanks Landon. Or are you one of the other guys from the site? You’re criticizing gay-for-pay porn stars when these dudes don’t even hide the fact that they’re totally straight? The only thing worth investigating is the person behind this planted review.

  9. this site is really a rip-off…the webcam shows are just guys talking with their clothes on..your lucky if they take off their shirts..i joined thinking it would be a hot site like fratpad..what a disappointment..they have cams all over the house …table cam..kitcken cam..shelves cam…desk cam…chair cam..freecam…most of the cams are empty most of the time…you might have a treat and see joe or landon working on the site….most of the chatters are people who knew landon and joe from the fratpad..when their is a show the guys are usually late and keep their clothes on for about a 30 mins. show…..i got screwed joining this site and would ask for a refund if i could ..maybe i could…i might… this is not a xxx site…the new slogan should be…usacamguys…a site about nothing!!!!!!

  10. This site isn’t about sex. Sex is involved because its part of their lives. It’s is more a mix between the real world and true life without all the editing and everything being set up. It’s a chance for people to follow the guys on their life’s journey. The cool thing about it is that a lot of people in the world like to say work hard, play hard, but can’t pull it off or don’t think it’s possible. UCG gives you a chance to see other people do it and share that experience. The site just got off the ground so give it time and let it develop. But if you’re looking for anything like the Fratpad, this is not it, which in my opinion is a good thing. The Fratpad is more set up than you know, this is real. Rel friends, real situations, real life.

  11. Who is the guy who walks in front of the camera with the huge cock, thats what i wanna know.

  12. Believe it not, most people have real lives, with real friends and don’t have to pay a website to experience someone elses real life. Just because you thought it would be a great idea to put a camera in your apartment to have people pay your rent doesn’t mean its a good idea.
    One of the great things about being young is young people take chances. Granted these chances may not always work out, may not have been adequately researched, or just may be bad ideas; when you are young, you can recover.
    These guys really missed the mark with USG. Cameras in a house where nothing happens, “hot” being ‘hot”, well produced and well edited videos that are ho hum…is there really a market for this? All of this and no sex? Do the UCG guys think that gay guys will just pay for anything? Look around Man Hunt…it’s all sex/all of the time. These guys totally miscalculated the opportunity. Landon and Joe underestimated the value of their sexuality-that’s a shame.

  13. Leo thanks for yor comment. FYI everyone showtime only charges $7.00 a month. This site is $30.00.

  14. it would be fun if they jack off and cum! it would be a waste of time if they will just talk and do usual stuffs!
