Mark Rober BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Mark Rober is closing out early November with the kind of headlines and public activity that make him equal parts engineering superstar and cultural phenomenon. The biggest story in the last few days is the launch of CrunchLabs Creative Kit, a new STEM-themed monthly subscription box announced through PRWeb and CrunchLabs. Rober pitched it as a way for kids to unleash their creativity by building imaginative projects each month—think architect and flavor chemist for a day—with hands-on projects and guided videos featuring Rober himself. He highlights the goal of nurturing future innovators by giving children both the tools and inspiration to experiment and problem solve, all in a buildable town that grows every month. Media positioning clearly targets CrunchLabs not just as a business expansion but as a long-term platform for hands-on STEM education with Rober as its public face.
In major business news, Netflix just greenlit a new kids and family competition series hosted and executive produced by Rober, in collaboration with Jimmy Kimmel’s Kimmelot.

The show, expected to premiere in 2026, promises to blend Rober’s signature science antics and educational twists into a high-energy family contest. Rober described it as “hiding the vegetables in the dessert,” eager to bring his “wacky experiments” to the streaming giant. Netflix execs are touting the show as next-level and see Rober’s infectious approach to science as an asset for their growing kids content strategy.
As for public appearances, Mark Rober was tapped as a keynote speaker at Adobe MAX 2025, sharing the stage with filmmaker James Gunn and Adobe marketing execs. Attendees and coverage from The Shortcut pegged Rober’s session as a highlight, spotlighting his unique creativity and showmanship—demonstrating why he’s so in demand for new media collaborations.
He hasn’t shied from his YouTube roots either, dropping a viral new video titled I Blew Up A 24 Story Building that shot to millions of views in days, quickly spreading across Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube with his usual blend of spectacle and science, and driving online conversation among his 76 million-plus followers as tracked by social media metrics on Feedspot.
Recent coverage in The Hollywood Reporter and Deadline reiterates his role as part of a new wave of YouTube talent shaking up Netflix’s strategy and staking a long-term claim on STEM media for a family audience.
