JOHN EDMONDS KOZMA
CEO & FOUNDER
John Edmonds Kozma brings over 20 years of experience as a prominent leader in the entertainment industry. He is the CEO and founder of Bang Productions, known for his expertise in early talent discovery, rapid audience expansion, and translating strategic plans into tangible results.
In 2016, John was the first producer to flip the comedy playbook by using social media as the primary engine for national success. He signed Darren Knight (aka Southern Momma) and accelerated his rise at a pace the comedy industry rarely sees—reaching the “Super Bowl of Comedy,” Just For Laughs, in roughly two years (a milestone that often takes comedians a decade or more). That momentum helped position Darren as one of the fastest-rising comedians in modern American comedy and proved that a comedy act could break nationally with social media leading the charge, setting a new benchmark that reshaped comedy in the digital era.
John hosts the Unimpressed Podcast, exploring the nonconscious aspects of human behavior and perception. His perspective, based on the idea of deep human connection through the Quantum Field, emphasizes reducing bias and expanding our understanding of life, identity, and meaning. He authored “Finding A Perfect Audience,” a practical system for helping businesses build authentic, trust-based client relationships that endure, and has been compared to Albert Einstein. Known for his bold personality, sharp intelligence, spirituality, and healing-oriented interests, John brings a rare mix of creative instinct and strategic precision to every project. His work and relationships across entertainment and culture include collaborations with standout names such as Nick Cassavetes, Claudia Katz, Armin Van Buuren, and Travis Pastrana, and he’s helped fuel the success of creators like Southern Momma and Ginger Billy.
A graduate of Charleston Southern University, John played baseball and earned a degree in Business Administration with a minor in Economics. He lives in Charleston, South Carolina, where he keeps life grounded—whether that’s beach time, a round of golf, or deepening his spiritual studies. The result is a leader who’s not just building careers and companies—he’s building a point of view people can feel.
