Brian Scotto is the co-founder of Hoonigan, the creative force behind the 400 million view Gymkhana films with Ken Block, and one of the most influential voices in automotive media over the last 15 years. Before Hoonigan, he was the editor-in-chief of Zero to 60 and Rides magazines, shaping car culture through print well before YouTube existed.

He's a filmmaker, a Volkswagen kid who grew up in the scene before it was a scene, a dad with 26 project cars, and someone who walked away from the empire he built to figure out what actually matters. Now he produces films as 321 ACTION ACTION and hosts the VERY VEHICULAR podcast.
