Astronauts Wanted believes its newest show can help viewers get past their fears. The studio known for producing Grace Helbig and Mamrie Hart’s #HeyUSA travel series will debut Anxt on January 20, 2015.
Anxt is hosted by YouTuber Mikey Bolts (who boasts over 1.7 million subscribers across two channels) and Viner Gabbie Hanna (who has 1.6 million followers on Twitter’s six-second video service). Back in December 2014, the two hosts invited their fans to submit their greatest fears, whether it be spiders, heights, or germs. Then, Bolts and Hanna selected some of the best, most disconcerting issues and started filming. Astronauts Wanted even brought some of the duo’s fans directly to Los Angeles to help them overcome their fears in person.
Bolts and Hanna kept most of the show’s filming and updates under wraps. Bolts even tweeted he wasn’t allowed to reveal anything about the show’s production until the episodes were released. However, that didn’t stop the two from posting harmless on-set updates to keep their fans excited for the series’ release.
