Origin story[]
Alex and Dustin met in New York at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater during a Rob Riggle masterclass in the spring of 2007. From there, they formed an improv group named the Stamp and Coin Club that performed around the Northeastern part of the USA. Wanting to get into sketch comedy, Alex, Dustin, and former member Ken Kocses created Dr. Coolsex. Alex brought Greg, his good friend from high school, to film and edit. They posted their first video, "Frat Boys Love Borat," on October 27, 2007. Since then, they have released over two hundred videos totaling almost 40 million views.
