About

Greetings, earthlings! Welcome to my site. I’m Adam Best, mostly a screenwriter nowadays, but other hats I’ve worn are entrepreneur, progressive activist and podcaster.

The first draft of my screenplay THE WOLF IN CHIEFS CLOTHING — loosely based on the Chiefsaholic saga — caught fire and made the prestigious 2023 Black List only 10 weeks after completion. Another script, BO KNOWS INFINITY, made the 2024 Black List. In that script, Bo Jackson gets stuck in a time loop and plays every sport imaginable. My sasquatch western (yes, you read that right) HAIR TRIGGER is currently circulating. I’m managed by the dynamic duo of Aaron Lipsett and Joseph Cavalier over at Heroes and Villains.

I’m the former CEO and co-founder of FanSided (acquired by Time Inc./Sports Illustrated and now owned by Minute Media). I have been involved in several other startups — as a founder, investor and adviser — and moonlighted in film production over the years.

I’m also the founder of Arrowhead Addict, a Kansas City Chiefs website and YouTube channel. I’m currently a podcast host on that platform. Go Chiefs!!!

Along the way, I even became an accidental political activist and consultant; who did everything from championing causes — like gun control and  single-payer healthcare — to meeting with politicians. I’m still active on the ground as a volunteer, but no longer work in politics. 

Stay tuned for more updates…
