Hi. I’m John.

You can call me Papa John if you'd like, or Jiggidy Riggidy, or Johnny Regs. I love coffee, crocs, creativity and watching old movies on VHS. I was a content creator and the Creative Director at Jubilee for 6 years in LA, scaling their creative team and growing the channel from 1 million to 9 million subscribers. We fearlessly explored the highs and lows of humanity to provoke understanding while creating some of YouTube’s most iconic and imitated formats—and also racking up billions of views. I now live in Chicago and host a podcast called Radical Empathy and moderate discussions in Jubilee’s Middle Ground. I’m a creative consultant for channels I believe in. I release video essays about media and creative mediums on my personal channel. Thanks for stopping by.
