Vanessa Wong is an actress, living in a rom-com... but lacking the romantic part. Her picks in food are as suspecting as her picks in men.

“Tim's jokes sound like someone recalling a night out whilst it's still happening and somehow funnier” - Ashley James

Tim To is a Chinese Canadian comedian, he grew up in Toronto and has spent about a decade living in Hong Kong. His comedic style explores his unhinged interpretation of his experiences and defines his own brand of logic. In 2020, he was the winner of BushiRoast 4 and continues to explore his comedic style in shows throughout Hong Kong.

Bryan Bentley has been performing stand-up comedy in Hong Kong since 2018. He had sold out multiple headliner shows, is a regular feature at TakeOut Comedy as well as Backstage Comedy, and hosts The Aftermath Open Mic weekly. With a mix of observational comedy about being a self-proclaimed “Boujie Ass Negro” along with a dose of healthy self-reflection, his energetic personality, and unique look always brings a good time.

Angus Cheng is a grumpy programmer who thinks he knows best about everything. Because of this he is unable to work for a company. This sad individual has no other choice but to earn money by creating and selling his software products.

The sweetheart of Hong Kong comedy. Bumbling her way through dating and finding the funny in everyday experiences.
