He is CEO of Rebellion Developments, game developers responsible for such games as Alien Vs Predator and the hugely popular Sniper Elite. Rebellion Publishing purchased 2000AD in 2000, and publishes comics featuring some amazing characters such as Judge Dredd, Strontium Dog, Roy of the Rovers, and Slaine.

    In 2017 Jason started a medieval history YouTube channel called Modern History TV, along with his brother Chris Kingsley, and senior producer Brian Jenkins, under the banner of Rebellion Productions. The YouTube channel has over three quarters of a million subscribers and provides a wealth of information. He also hosts the podcast, Future Imperfect.

    In 2012, he was made an Officer of the Order of the British Empire for service to the economy.

It’s like hanging out with two great authors.

Imagine walking into a pub, waving to your two friends you were to met up with. Now these friends aren’t just ordinary people, nope Steven and Matthew are fantastic minds as well as best sellers of historical fiction. So sitting and chatting it up with them you not only get educated but feel awe inspired in their presence. Well I’d probably be nervous which in turn makes me overly chatty, to the extent one of the guys would be saying can I talk now please. I’m a big fan of them both and a horrible geek of history in general. So this podcast is on my follow list. Cheers to you both on your podcast long may it reign!

Really interesting interview!

This was a really great podcast. Matthew and Steven asked great questions and received great answers from Jason Kingsley. All three have extensive backgrounds in Medieval History. As well as 2000 AD, British Comics and games. Will need to listen again to be sure I heard it all. Will also enjoy it a second time.
