The New Series Produced by Vox Media Studios to Debut on YouTube in December 2019

Today Vox Media and Vox Media Studios are thrilled to announce YouTube has greenlit Retro Tech, featuring YouTube creator Marques Brownlee, on the heels of today’s debut of the YouTube Original Special of the same name. In this documentary series from Vox Media Studios and YouTube, Brownlee unboxes, reviews, and reveals the greatest vintage tech-driven products that defined pop culture and changed the world as we know it. The 6-episode unscripted series will debut on Marques’ YouTube channel this December 2019.

In each episode, Marques will examine a different nostalgic product - many of which he has never used - exploring the history, impact on society, and creators who made the product come to life. The series will guest star YouTube creators and inventors who will be announced at a later date.

The Retro Tech Special has debuted to fans around the world today, April 19th, exclusively on Marques’ YouTube channel. Fans will be able to enjoy this sneak peak while getting excited for the full Retro Tech series to hit later this year.
