Good Dude Spotlight! “Detours were never the interruption.” That's the resounding theme throughout Jonathan Giles' career as a young athlete, marketer, comedy writer and national news editor. From traveling the world to late-night standup comedy sets, Jonathan found a safe space in telling the stories that create belonging. He is a regular contributor to national publications including Sports Illustrated, EBONY and Men's Journal covering athletes, brands, entertainers, travel locations, wellness, food, and the stuff that gives ordinary life meaning. He is also host of 'The Field Pass with Jonathan Giles' podcast and former late-night writer for ABC and NBC. Jonathan founded Off Course, an independent, nonprofit media platform and creative studio that uses sports as a gateway to culture, travel, and human connection.
