John Jurasek,[2] better known as Reviewbrah, is an American YouTube personality, food critic and radio host. Jurasek reviews frozen food, fast food, and energy drinks on his YouTube channel TheReportOfTheWeek, and hosts a radio show on shortwave radio, Spotify, TuneIn, and SoundCloud. He has been featured by several media outlets, including CNN Money, New York Magazine, Forbes and Lenta.ru.[3][4][5] Jurasek was also a guest on The Needle Drop Podcast in October 2015 and made an appearance on an episode of the television program Tosh.0 in March 2016.[6]
YouTube
Establishing his YouTube channel in 2011,[3] Jurasek's initial focus was on a series of energy drink reviews known as Energy Crisis. He has since diversified to include a food review series, Running On Empty, which focuses on fast food and ready-made meals. A third, as yet unnamed series focuses on reviewing specialty drinks.
As of January 2021, Jurasek's YouTube channel, TheReportOfTheWeek, has over 2.28 million subscribers and 199 million views.
Regarding the type of food items featured in his reviews he has stated, "Is every average American going to be eating a steak dinner every night? No. Fast food though, well, there's usually a McDonald's every half-mile... I want to be applicable to the largest number of people."[7]
Radio
In addition to his YouTube offerings, Jurasek hosts a weekly shortwave radio program, VORW Radio International. The program has been transmitted primarily by WBCQ, WWCR, and WRMI.[8] The program runs for around one hour and features commentary and listener-requested music. The show also features regular shoutouts, 1920s humor, and responses to listener messages, encouraging a community aspect that Jurasek cites as being more positive than his YouTube viewers.
As of February 2019, Jurasek has also begun uploading regular podcasts, recorded shortwave shows, and live streams to YouTube via his channel VORW Podcast, which has accumulated over 69,000 subscribers as of November 2020.
