    Emmy Nominated Television Host and Broadcast Media Specialist Jay Adams has over 23 years of hosting and production experience and has developed a reputation for outstanding live television performance.

This Disney pilot was used to persuade Meredith Vieira to celebrity host the show. His favorite part of the program lies in waiting for the contestant’s answers. “You never know what a contestant might say. We have 650 people in the studio audience, so there’s no going back. If they say something a bit wacky, you better be a bit quick on your feet.”

   As a top television talent, Jay has had the occasion to interview and work with some of Hollywood’s biggest names. Some of his memorable television interviews include Donald Trump, Shaquille O’Neal, Hulk Hogan, Dick Clark and Ed McMahon. Jay also toured the country hosting the “Go For It! Road Show with Hershel Walker, Kristi Yamaguchi, Bo Jackson and Cory Everson.

  His work as a senior correspondent for the award-winning and internationally syndicated program Today’s Health aired on CNBC and in over fifty countries including England, Russia, Japan and Germany. Jay was also selected to host a special edition of Today's Environment, sister show to Today’s Health. Today’s Environment was nominated for an Emmy in 2000 and aired on CNBC. Jay has also hosted other television shows including We Investigate Los Angeles, Beverly Hills Oasis Television, Los Angeles County News, and The Next Step, a television program highlighting the films, series, and a variety of massive offerings of the Time-Warner Cable Empire.

   He is co-owner of nationally known Fight Zone TV which can be seen on Sports South Television, SunSports TV, and FOX Sports Network. With a viewership of over 20 million and ownership of a large library of ninety-minute shows, Fight Zone is a leader in MMA content and distribution. He also hosts shows on the network.
