About The Jay

TheJay.com has been nominated for two Best Culture Blogs (2006-7) for the Weblog Awards. This is due in small part to all the loyal readers of the site, but in large part to the super writing talent and intense annoyance of celebrity shenanigans of one Jason Matthews (aka “The Jay”).

Beyond rocking the English language with awesome bombs on the regular, jason is an accomplished playwright. Through the Ruskin Group Theatre and their showcase “Café Plays”, Jason has written and produced thirty-six one-act plays. He is currently their Writer-in-Residence.

When he’s not balking at the idea of writing a play longer than twelve pages, Jason can be found online, writing scathing celebrity rebukes, downloading gloriously bad pop music (holla, Stacie Orrico!), and obsessively studying box office returns and IMDB resume pages. Go ahead, try and stump him at “Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon”, it’s not gonna happen.

In addition to his work online and in theatre, Jason was the host of PopLoad on NowLive.com from January – May 2007, and was the Editor-in-Chief of the popular Santa Barbara-based arts magazine CampusPOINT from June 2000 – June 2002. He has a Bachelor’s Degree in Film Studies from UC Santa Barbara, and currently resides in the luxurious San Fernando Valley.

And yes, he is proud to represent the “818″.
