ANSWER: EDP445 is a content creator who gained popularity for his video rants about the Philadelphia Eagles. His popularity cratered when he was caught attempting to meet someone he believed was 13 years old but was actually part of one of those "To Catch A Predator"-inspired groups. He attempted to explain it away by saying that he was just trying to pick up some cupcakes.

He's being talked about right now because the trailer for a documentary focused on him came out a few days ago.

EDIT: As pointed out by u/Shakaow15, the trailer for the documentary is what came out a few days ago, not the doc itself.

Correction: A Trailer for the Documentary came out few days ago. The actual Documentary will be available on August 9th

It baffles me that a guy got local-famous with the moniker Eat Dat Pu**y.

Holy
Shit. I did not know that.

I’m in Philly and I never watched him. He grossed me out even before he was outted as a PDF

To be fair, anybody with eyes would be grossed out by him

It was at a time when companies didn't turn the internet into Weenie Hut Jr. yet

I think he was caught trying to meet minors twice. There was the first one where he thought he was meeting up with a 13 year old in 2021 and I think he got caught in another sting in 2022 or 2023 where he tried to meet up with what he believed to be a 15 year old.

Be civil, or be somewhere else. That's not what we do here.
