It was hosted by Steven Joel Kerzner as Ed the Sock and Kerzner's real-life wife Liana K. Other people who worked on the show included DJ James Stamos and comedian Ron Sparks.

To date, it is the longest running Canadian late night talk show in history.

Ed's profile was raised even higher with a series of specials and appearances on the national music video channel MuchMusic.

The series was taken off the air in Alberta and other parts of the country after the show aired a comedy sequence in which Ed is shown supposedly having sex with a Playboy playmate, even though the program was being broadcast in a late night time slot.
