Mini bio
How it started.
Eddy's interest in filmmaking began at home: his sister had him and his brother reenact Lizzie McGuire episodes using their dad's camcorder. He joined YouTube in 2011 and began uploading in 2016, building a channel around comedy and commentary.
Finding his audience.
The Shorty Awards described 2019 as a breakout year, pointing to videos such as “Stranger Danger Films from the 90's are Insane.” He became a finalist in its YouTube Comedian category in 2020.
Taking the story outside.
Eddy told The Harvard Crimson that seeing Morbius five times helped him discover a format built around going out and doing something. His restaurant journeys with Ted Nivison took that approach across the United States and Canada, visiting Rainforest Cafes and then Margaritavilles.
Two channels, shared curiosity.
Alongside his solo films, Eddy makes Burback with his twin brother Tony. Their videos revisit games and pop culture, from Spyro and Shrek games to Spy Kids. Recent solo projects explore life without a smartphone, chatbot behavior and a monthlong diet experiment.
