Early life
Rainbow grew up in Florida, where his father, Gerry Rainbow, was a musician and talent booker. He credits his grandmother as his greatest comedic influence. In a 2017 interview with the New York Times, Rainbow recalled "It was really my grandmother who was the biggest influence because she’d talk back to the celebrities and politicians on TV. She was a combination of Joan Rivers, Elaine Stritch, Betty White, and Bea Arthur rolled into one". After dropping out of community college in his early 20s, Rainbow moved to New York to pursue a theatrical career. It was then he began blogging and making comedic videos.
