It is co-hosted by Kevin Pereira, Sarah Lane, and Brendan Moran. On occasion, Wil O'Neal will fill in for any co-host when they're not.Often, before the theme song and introduction to an episode, a short skit may include the co-hosts changing the appearance of the set, or involve Office Jesus, a passive-aggressive Jesus who haunts the workrooms and cubicles with practical jokes and antics.
