Drawfee; originally Morning Drawfee, (a portmanteau of draw and morning coffee) is a YouTube and Twitch show started in 2014 by Nathan Yaffe and Caldwell Tanner at CollegeHumor. Drawfee began as a way for the two hosts to warm up before starting their day as illustrators. CollegeHumor laid off Drawfee and most other employees in early 2020.[3][4] Drawfee subsequently announced its status as an independent company in July 2020.[5]
As of July 2024[update], Drawfee has 1.86 million subscribers and more than 442 million views on YouTube.
Format[edit]
Most episodes begin with the greeting, "Welcome to Drawfee, where we take dumb ideas and make even dumber drawings," followed by the hosts announcing their names. The episode participants then talk about where they got the inspiration for the episode prompt, usually from a Patreon patron, YouTube commenter, or one of the artists themselves. These often take the form of an improvised skit. Popular prompts include anime, video games, and self-imposed challenges, such as using a particular brush or color.[6]
Most episodes involve three or four sketches, renders of which are shown between artists. However, some episodes, such as "If the Mario Movie Was Made by Different Animation Studios" include other art forms, such as clay sculpture.[7]

During Pride Month 2023, the 4 members of Drawfee Show ran a nearly 5-hour Trucking Simulator charity stream. Along the way, they raised $108,717.00 for Stonewall Community Foundation. Taking a route from Forks, WA down to Mexico, the team handed out snacks, put on road tunes, and played driving games to pass the time. They only had to get towed once, but plenty of fun was had. Congratulations to Drawfee Show for a great Trans Rigs road trip!
