The first long-form original show from Tastemade follows the Ayling brothers, Marko and Alex around the globe as they vlog about everything from food, culture and the experience

Imagine your brother living like a prince, while you have to make do with the life of a pauper! Well, for the Ayling brothers, it doesn't seem to matter enough to be a big issue. In fact, for them, this seemed like a perfect idea to be documented and vlogged about. The first long-form original show from Tastemade, 'Basic Versus Baller: Travel at Any Cost' which is set to launch exclusively on TastemadeTV, the company’s new 24-hour linear channel on YouTubeTV, follows the Ayling brothers, Marko and Alex — known online as the Vagabrothers — around the globe across 10 episodes, with episode one shot in Hong Kong, China.

Having premiered on October 26, 2018, the show airs weekly on Thursdays through early January 2019 and will be supported by over 100 social assets to be distributed on Tastemade’s global social channels. The show is set to follow the YouTube sensations around the globe as they take their chances at experiencing different cities in either lavish luxury or on a backpacker’s budget.
