Mini bio

How it started.

Before the recipe tests, David spent about three years posting basketball trick shots on a channel called yankjet318, according to Famous Birthdays. The current channel’s early archive includes “Sibling Tag | ThePhantomBros,” uploaded in May 2014 with brother Danny.

Finding a food audience.

The Buzzfeed Test videos became an early calling card. “Flaming Hot Cheetos Recipes- Buzzfeed Test #16,” released on December 31, 2015, is singled out by Famous Birthdays as one of David’s most popular uploads. In the Patreon introduction, David recalls making YouTube videos in their parents’ basement and wanting to make more ambitious videos.

What fans watch now.

The channel now ranges from TikTok kitchen hacks to comparisons of other cooks’ recipes. In 2026, David tested cheesesteaks from Preppy Kitchen, Ethan Chlebowski and J. Kenji López-Alt, and followed a trip to Britain with fish-and-chips recipe tests. The format gives fans a look at the cooking process as well as the finished food.
