AX Live Hosts

AX Live Website Bio – Jason and Bryan have been bouncing around the idea of a radio/web broadcast for years. After finally getting the green light in 2010, the duo have made it their agenda to “fight crime, help the innocent, cure multiple diseases… or at the very least, put on an epic webcast.” With the addition of Frances and Courtney, AX Live is your source for everything anime, manga, toys, and games.

Jason

Enjoying anime and manga since he was a kid, Jason has been known as the “sociable nerd” for most of his life, so joining Anime Expo in 2005 was an easy decision. From ‘06-’10, He was Manager of the AV-Tech Live Programming Dept. He also co-founded the annual Anime Expo Battle of the Bands, an event that has skyrocketed in popularity every year since its inception. He now focuses entirely on AX Live as a co-host and producer.
