Dudes in a Room started in late 2016 after Heath approached Culum Maitland with the idea of making a gaming YouTube channel.<br />The first videos only involved Culum and William, with William coming up with the title of the channel in the first episode. Heath was brought in and recorded a few episodes with Culum and William, but they were deleted because of audio issues. Heath was brought in for another recording session, the videos were edited by Culum and uploaded to YouTube.<br /><br />Over the coming months, Dudes in a Room would record whenever Heath could make it out to Culum and William, each person fitting into their own roles in the group. In 2017 the Dudes went on hiatus while Culum went to Griffith University. Culum dropped out of uni a year later though, and returned with even more production and business skills. Dudes in a Room came back, and better than ever!
