Miles Johnson
A Philadelphia native and Brooklyn-based media personality, Miles has built a respected platform centered around the passion, culture, and stories that make Philadelphia sports unique. A graduate of Morehouse College and New York University, Miles brings a unique combination of traditional media training, storytelling expertise, and digital innovation to his work. He is an Emmy Award-winning socialproducer for his work during the 2024 Olympics, and a two-time Emmy-nominated social producer recognized for his contributions to FOX Sports’ First Things First.
While Miles’ foundation was built through traditional journalism, the COVID-19 pandemic shifted the way he viewed storytelling and audience engagement. Recognizing the growing impact and accessibility of social media, Miles began taking ownership of his digital presence by editing and creating short-form content from his podcast conversations to connect with audiences beyond traditional platforms. What started as a way to extend the life of his interviews and conversations online evolved into what is now Real Talk with Miles Johnson — a platform dedicated to authentic storytelling, sports culture, and meaningful conversations with athletes, creators, and leaders.
