Jessica Chobot joined IGN.com in 2006 as a full-time host, quickly establishing herself as a prominent voice in gaming and pop culture. During her tenure at IGN until 2009, she hosted ‘IGN Weekly’ and ‘IGN Strategize,’ while also contributing written content, reviews, and blog posts. Her public profile gained significant traction following a viral photo in 2005, which propelled her into wider media. Expanding her reach, Chobot wrote for ‘FHM UK,’ appeared on G4’s ‘Filter’ and ‘Attack of the Show!,’ hosted a gaming preview for Fuel TV’s ‘The Daily Habit,’ and co-hosted ‘Gamer’s Dojo’ on Lifeskool TV.

During this period, she also co-hosted ‘The Untold Hour’ podcast from 2020 to 2021. Demonstrating her continued passion for the paranormal, she independently revived her acclaimed podcast as ‘Bizarre States Resurrected’ in 2022. Building on this success, Chobot launched her new podcast, ‘Occulture Shock,’ on Patreon in 2025, further delving into the paranormal, occult, and esoteric history. Looking ahead, Chobot announced a new three-part Discovery series, ‘Bigfoot Took Her,’ slated to premiere on October 29, 2025, cementing her role as a leading investigator in the field.
