About

I’m a TV Producer/Host, a Content Creator/Influencer, a Travel Writer… and I was Mr. Gay Canada 2019!

Hi, I’m Josh Rimer and I’m primarily known for the travel videos that I produce and host for my YouTube channel and two TV stations: OUTtv (airing at random times daily) and HappiTV on Pluto TV Cabada (airing on Saturday mornings at 11:30am local time). My YouTube channel has over 40K subscribers, over 1.2 million Canadians have OUTtv on its own or in a package (through cable providers) and 10K people tune in to HappiTV on Pluto TV Canada each week. I’ve done travel content from all over the world and I also share photos and reels from my trips on my social media accounts, like on Instagram where I have over 14K followers.

I’m quite active on my social media and have a pretty engaged following of people who’ve been watching and interacting with me online for years. Daily Hive, which is western Canada’s largest online-only publication, did an article about my journey (both in terms of my travels and in terms of being a YouTuber).

I also occasionally do travel writing and have written for IN Magazine (Canadian LGBTQ2+), Luxe Beat Magazine (Luxury lifestyle), and GayCalgary Magazine (Albertan LGBTQ+). Here is a travel article I wrote for IN Magazine (about Penticton, BC) and a cover story I wrote for GayCalgary Magazine (about Sannie aka Whigfield):

I’ve been hired to write/produce/host videos for other people as well (see Gayosphere screenshot below) and I often do brand deals on my Instagram account to promote companies I like (see WRKOUT and Manna Hydration screenshots below). I’m based in Vancouver, BC so when I’m not travelling that’s where you’ll find me and where my local content is created!
