It’s now a global business worth millions and one of their biggest fanbases in the world is right here – in Australia.

From those tiny beginnings, Rooster Teeth now has over 4.1 billion views on YouTube, 25 million subscribers, offices around the world, hundreds of employees and their own podcasts, movies, anime and conventions.

Husband and wife team Michael and Lindsay Jones are two of the people responsible for that explosion.

"I started watching Rooster Teeth on YouTube," says Lindsay.

"I was a YouTube fanatic in high school. So when I applied for the job there I was like ‘listen, this is all I know’ and they were like ‘fantastic, we love your energy and you’re a fit for the humour'.

"So I started working in the live action department and slowly but surely worked my way into Achievement Hunter with Michael now."

One of their first and biggest successes was the wildly popular Red Vs Blue, America’s longest running sci-fi series, which dubs comedic lines over Halo.

That was one of the entry points for Michael too, who fell in love with Red Vs Blue "like many other people".

"Honestly, I watched Red Versus Blue for years, and years, and years but I never really did anything with Rooster Teeth," he says.

"In my early 20s I started making YouTube videos on the side just for fun and lo and behold Rooster Teeth ended up contacting me about it and said, "Hey we saw your stuff, would you want to do videos for us?"

Rooster Teeth has fans all around the world and global offices to support that. Yet perhaps one of their biggest fan bases is here in Australia, something that still astounds Michael and Lindsay.

"I'm not quite sure how that happened," he says.

"I knew Rooster Teeth was huge in Australia. I was like why? Somebody compared it to David Hasshelhoff in Germany.

"They just love us, we don’t know why."

Lindsay adds: "Specifically for Australian fans there’s so much passion whenever they come to see us and they’re very polite they are and we talk about how nice every one in Australia is and how we wann move here."
