Stephen Chao
Stephen Chao is the co-founder and CEO of WonderHowTo, the Santa Monica how-to video network he launched in 2008 after a combustible career in television. He created the reality formats America's Most Wanted and Cops at Fox, rose to president of Fox Television Stations, and was fired ten weeks later for hiring a model to strip during a speech about censorship in front of Rupert Murdoch. He later ran programming at USA Network. A Harvard classics major and former National Enquirer reporter, Chao built a second act around free, searchable tutorials covering everything from food hacks to augmented reality.
Theo Von
Theo Von is a comedian, podcaster, and storyteller from Covington, Louisiana, whose show 'This Past Weekend' ranked as the 4th biggest podcast globally on Spotify in 2024. Known for his absurdist Southern wit, deeply personal storytelling, and a gift for finding humor in unlikely places, he has built one of the most loyal audiences in independent media — interviewing everyone from Donald Trump to Bernie Sanders while remaining stubbornly, disarmingly himself.
