Olan Rogers

Rogers started his career on YouTube alongside two Collierville High School and University of Memphis friends in the comedy trio BalloonShop, known for their comedic sketches and shorts. After transitioning to his solo channel, Rogers uploaded videos of his own sketches as well as humorous stories of his life, short films, and even several animated shorts.

In 2015, after lamenting his inability to meet with fans as often as he liked, Rogers opened a lounge called "The Soda Parlor" in Nashville, which offered arcade games and various desserts. The Parlor was later hit by a tornado in March 2020, and then looted in the aftermath.

His channel reached 1,000,000 subscribers on March 26, 2019, but entered long periods of inactivity, which Olan later explained was a result of coming to terms with numerous personal troubles, including the destruction of the Parlor, and the death of his cat, Starscream.
