John J.: Hot Winter Geek

John J. was featured in a list of the “Hottest Geek Guys of Winter” on the Redeye Chicago Blog.

Here is his write up from the article:

John J. – Editor-In-Chief, [adult swim] central. Columnist, Podcaster: There are many ways to describe John J. (as he is known to the internet universe). Visionary, Diabolical Genius, Social Butterfly, Delusional Weirdo… many, however know him as “The Most Beloved Man on the Internet.” Having failed to in his first attempt (a fansite about the show “Mystery Science Theater 3000,”) John J. started another site, dedicated to the hit [adult swim] show, “Aqua Teen Hunger Force.” The site itself, gained a rather moderate following, even garnering the attention of the creators, voice actors, and staff of the show. After building sites based on other [adult swim] programs, John J. placed them under the umbrella of [adult swim] central. With the advent of the podcasting boom of the mid-2000s, [as]central’s Swimcast was established as well. The Swimcast is a round-table podcast regarding all things going on in the [as] universe, sometimes including guest interviews. In 2010, John J. started venturing outside of the [adult swim] universe and became an occasional columnist for sites such as The Other View and Nerd Blerp. Shortly after, John J. started the Adventure Club Podcast: A hodgepodge of a podcast, which includes pop-culture, nostalgia, comedy, tech, and all-around geekdom. John J. graduated from Brookdale Community College (the same college attended by director Kevin Smith, NBC News Anchor Brian Williams, and Venture Bros. voice actor James Urbaniak.) with a degree in Fine Arts. When not being “The Most Beloved…,” he enjoys playing games on X-Box/PS3, collecting various action figures, and watching way too much TV and equally too many Movies. Follow John on Twitter!
