Hilah Johnson a Chris Sharpe: Broke filmmakers turned YouTube cooking channel stars Hilah and Chris did not get started in video with their cooking channel. It all started, in fact, with a "post-apocalyptic horror comedy" film they did together - which ultimately took a dive and failed.

They joined Bjork on the Food Blogger Pro podcast to talk all about their journey to YouTube success.
