The Origin

J. Coletrane the Man

Jason Coletrane is a multidisciplinary entertainer, broadcaster, voice talent, public speaker, and founder of Jaded Zen Entertainment®, an independent media company built around original programming, voice-driven content, live entertainment, and personality-led intellectual property.

His career in front of audiences began early. In 1983, he was selected as the "face of Omaha Public Schools," followed by work with Face Modeling Agency, appearances in local PSA commercials, and participation in Fashion Week in New York City. His professional background would eventually expand across broadcasting, podcasting, voice performance, music, public speaking, professional wrestling training, psychology, and communication studies.

For more than 25 years, Coletrane has developed experience in public speaking and live communication. He holds an Associate degree in Psychology, is a Certified Master NLP Practitioner, and has spent approximately 20 years studying Neuro-Linguistic Programming, communication, behavioral psychology, performance, and personal development. His continuing education has included seminars and training programs in Las Vegas, Chicago, New York City, Cleveland, and Columbus, Ohio, with an emphasis on speaking, communication, wellness, and human behavior.

That communication background became the foundation for an international media presence. Through podcasting and broadcasting, Coletrane's work has been heard in more than 58 countries and 13 languages, with hundreds of hours of live programming produced and hosted. His ability to move between serious discussion, entertainment, history, psychology, humor, and unscripted conversation has become a central part of the Jaded Zen Entertainment® identity.

His experience outside traditional media adds another layer to the company's creative foundation. Coletrane trained as a professional wrestler and remains an active member of the Cauliflower Alley Club, connecting him directly to one of entertainment's oldest traditions of character development, live performance, improvisation, promotion, and audience psychology. He is also a saxophonist and has been invited as a guest of the chiropractic and alternative medicine convention associated with the Arnold Classic for two consecutive years.

Coletrane has also served as a deputy registrar, adding civic engagement and community-facing responsibility to an already unconventional résumé.

Rather than building Jaded Zen Entertainment® around a single program or personality gimmick, Coletrane has developed it around a broader principle: communication is intellectual property.

A podcast can become a series.

A character can become a franchise.

A voice can become a brand.

A conversation can become an audience.

Jaded Zen Entertainment® is designed to capitalize on that overlap through podcasts, voice acting, original entertainment concepts, digital content, live programming, merchandise, and developing media properties.

The name reflects the philosophy behind the company. Jaded represents experience — the understanding that audiences recognize empty hype quickly. Zen represents discipline — the ability to remove the noise, find the point, and deliver it effectively.

Coletrane's career has never followed one conventional lane. That is increasingly the point. Jaded Zen Entertainment® is being built from the combined experience of a broadcaster, performer, speaker, student of human behavior, voice talent, storyteller, and entrepreneur — with the goal of turning that experience into original media assets that can grow beyond any single platform.

03 / Manifesto

Four Chapters

01

The Voice

A baritone who is as proficient as a tenor and can easily switch back and forth between the two, built for cinema — equally at home as the villain in your animation, the narrator of your documentary, or the last voice your player hears before the boss fight.

02

The Studio

Jaded Zen Entertainment® is a fully independent production house where ideas are written, recorded, engineered, mixed, and brought to life — all under one obsidian roof. One creative vision from concept to completion. No middlemen. No diluted ideas. No unnecessary nonsense.

03

The Slate

Podcasts exploring history, unsolved mysteries, and important conversations already on the air — along with a co-hosting role on the long-running wrestling and entertainment program The StarMaker Bolin Show. With an original mockumentary sitcom in development and a merchandise line preparing to launch, it all forms a fully owned entertainment universe built around distinctive voices, memorable characters, and compelling stories.

04

The Vision

Build original shows people return to, characters they remember, and a brand with a voice unmistakably its own.

Why now

The proof is already on the air: weekly programming heard in 58 countries and 13 languages, a co-hosting seat on the long-running StarMaker Bolin Show, and an owned slate in active production — including a mockumentary series debuting Thanksgiving Day 2026. The next round of growth funds production scale and the Drop 001 merch launch.
