Bo was born Robert Pickering Burnham in Hamilton Massachusetts on August 21, 1990. His mother worked as a nurse at his school, while his father Scott was in construction.

He joined YouTube in 2006 and used it to share videos of his musical comedy performances, thinking only his family would see it. Instead, it was shared on a popular comedy website at the time, and it went viral.

He recorded the videos in his bedroom and his parents home, while he saying about touchy topics such as homosexuality, white supremacy, and Helen Keller.
