For the debut of Reactorverse, Eric Rodriguez interviews Greg Alba from the Reel Rejects. From his humble beginnings as a receptionist, Alba aimed to do movie reviews and managed to hit it big with reactions. Alba has spent the last eleven years turning Reel Rejects into one of YouTube’s biggest pop culture reaction channels on the Internet today, with over a million subscribers and half a billion views for their TV and movie commentary which includes longtime Reject John Humphrey, newest Reject Coy Jandreau, and many other reoccurring personalities.
