KEN KASHAHOWYA, Host

He never saw Show Hack before being hired, but his first impression was that it was a “friendly” show (as in a choke hold) . Quote: “Yes, I know about culture and technology. The worst technology fail is sitting in the men's stall in a restaurant on the verge of being shut down by the health department when you see the toilet paper roll is empty.”

MYRON IRE, Presenter

TESLA ROHBOT, Segment Producer

Tesla is a segment producer who helps plan in studio show blocks. She is supposed to keep the live broadcast on track but at times things get derailed like in Episode 32 when she debuted in front of the camera to support Olive. She has a firery quick wit and tom boy attitude so she can handle the boys on the set. Quote: “My parents may disown me because I found my way into television. They find TV a dark hole abyss. After working here, I think I may be on that event horizon.”

CHA LI, Chinese Actress/Foodie

Cha Li is an film actress who stumbled on the set for an uncomfortable interview in Episode 52. Afterward, the hosts challenged her to a noodle eating contest.
