Steve Agee has hosted the Dr. God Revival show at iOWest. Steve also has a lead role as "Floyd Beamer" in ANGRY WHITE MAN, a comedic feature film directed by Dr. God's Brian James O'Connell.
Steve Agee is a Southern California native. After receiving a degree in fine art from Loma Linda University, Agee moved to Los Angeles with his band, The Grazers. Soon after, the band broke up and he found himself taking classes at the Groundlings. For the next six years, Agee supported his comedy habit by working in reality television for such shows as, "The Real World," "Road Rules," "The Osbournes," "Temptation Island" and "Joe Millionaire." It was during that time that Agee met Sarah Silverman while doing a play written by one of Sarah's friends.
In 2003, Agee became a clip researcher (or TV watcher) for "Jimmy Kimmel Live" and eventually became a writer for the show. It was also during that time that he made an appearance in Silverman's film, "Jesus is Magic," as well as Bobcat Goldthwait's film, "Sleeping Dogs Lie." Agee has also been a contributing writer for MTV 2's "The Andy Milonakis Show."
Although this perpetually bespectacled deadpan funny lady has appeared in a slew of cutting-edge comic series (Reno 911!, The Sarah Silverman Program), Harris is best recognized for her high-profile commercial gigs, including ads for GEICO, AVIS and T-Mobile. A former performer and teacher for Los Angeles' famed Groundlings improv troupe, she did TV guest spots and a stint as a Daily Show correspondent before landing her breakout role as the title character's makeup artist cum confidante on Fat Actress. Having found her niche as a wisecracking best bud, she played a similar part on the sitcom Notes from the Underbelly as a pregnant wife's anti-spawning friend. Well-known and well-liked in the comedy community, Harris has also landed dry-witted roles in big-screen laughers, including Will Ferrell's Kicking & Screaming, Eddie Murphy's Daddy Day Care and a string of improvised Christopher Guest flicks. After playing Ed Helms' overbearing girlfriend in 2009's The Hangover, Harris took on a role that played against type when she portrayed the mom in 2010's family film Diary of a Wimpy Kid.

Linda Cardellini was born on June 25, 1975 in Redwood City, California. Through her exposure on the critically adored NBC series Freaks and Geeks, Linda Cardellini was singled out by dozens of major publications as one of the most extraordinary young actors in Hollywood, with good reason. As early as age 10, when she was first asked to sing in a school play, Cardellini knew what her future would be.
She immersed herself in school productions and drama classes, getting her big break with a starring role in the television series Bone Chillers. She has also appeared in the films Dead Man on Campus, with Tom Everett Scott and Good Burger.
After breaking into the scene in Freaks and Geeks in the fall of 1999, she starred that season in American Movie Classics' original four-part dramedy The Lot, set in a film studio during the 1930's. The multi-plot story revolved around her character, June Parker, an innocent young Midwesterner who goes to Hollywood to become a star. When AMC opted to continue the multi-part series, Linda re-joined her original castmates for several guest-star appearances, winning repeat rave reviews each time.
Since finishing the series, Linda has worked non-stop in both feature films and theatre. She recently starred in The Unsaid, opposite Andy Garcia and was seen in 2001's Legally Blonde, with Reese Witherspoon. Of course, the role that might be considered her breakthrough is that of Velma Dinkey in the film adaptation of Scooby-Doo. She is due to reprise the character in the 2004 sequel. Meanwhile, she will also appear in Lollilove and La La Wood, with Martin Short.
Linda is also genuinely committed to her first love, theater. She has performed in Europe, starring in the Dutch tragedy Lancelot, a 14th century secular feminist play and only recently translated into English and also appeared in the West Coast premiere of Adam Rapp's award-winning Ghosts in the Cottonwoods.

Since his breakthrough performance as PEDRO in NAPOLEON DYNAMITE, Efren Ramirez has established himself within the Film and Television industry, working nonstop in numerous projects being released over the coming months.
Ramirez has been acting for over thirteen years, playing diverse roles in many television shows including ER, JUDGING AMY, THE DISTRICT, BOSTON PUBLIC, MAD TV, and SCRUBS.

Efren then starred in RATKO as a foreign dictator’s son who travels to the U.S. to attend college and AMERICAN SUMMER as a poolboy who turns an empty mansion into a brothel.
Recently, Efren wrapped filming the 2 person drama, CROSSING THE HEART, starring opposite Kris Kristoferson and due to the success of CRANK, it seemed inevitable that a sequel would be made.

Collectively his films have grossed over $80 million to date.
