Being The Elite
Being the Elite debuted on YouTube in May 2016 and has since aired, on average, once or twice a week. The show is shot and edited entirely on an iPhone with the members of The Elite holding complete creative control over the content. Originally intended as a promotional vehicle and a video journal of The Elite's life on the road, it has since evolved into a hybrid that also includes skits and storyline developments involving both The Elite and Bullet Club.
In the vast universe of online entertainment, few shows have made as much impact as "=3". Hosted initially by the charismatic Ray William Johnson, this YouTube web series quickly became a staple for comedy lovers around the globe. With its unique format that combined viral video commentary with sharp wit, "=3" captured the hearts of millions. As it evolved through various hosts like Robby Motz and Kaja Martin, its legacy continued to influence internet culture in profound ways.
The show's inception can be traced back to a time when YouTube was burgeoning with creativity and innovation. Ray William Johnson's dynamic presence and clever humor created an unmatched viewing experience that resonated with audiences seeking laughter and entertainment. His ability to dissect viral videos with humorous insights made "=3" not just a show but a weekly ritual for many fans.
After Ray stepped down in March 2014, Robby Motz took over hosting duties, bringing his own flair while maintaining the essence of what made "=3" so beloved. Although some viewers were skeptical at first, Robby's charm eventually won them over, keeping the fan base engaged and entertained. However, transitions are never easy in long-running shows; when Kaja Martin became the host in July 2015, she faced challenges in retaining viewership amidst changing internet trends.
