Ira Madison III is a writer living in Los Angeles and host of Crooked Media’s pop culture podcast Keep It. His television credits include Daybreak, Nikki Fre$h, and the upcoming Netflix series Q-Force. His television pilot Canceled is in development at Warner Bros. with co-writer Julian Breece and producers Greg Berlanti and Sarah Schechter. Previously, he has written for The Daily Beast, GQ, MTV News, and Vulture among other publications.

In 2016 Nylon named him one of the “most reliably hilarious and incisive cultural critics writing now” and the unfortunately short-lived 2018 AMC series Dietland name checked his Twitter account in an episode. He has appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, The Wendy Williams Show, and Watch What Happens Live.

He is represented by Kailey Marsh at Brillstein Entertainment Partners and Lev Ginsburg at Ginsburg Daniels LLP.
