The Conventioneers is the most popular program currently on BITE TV, and can be viewed on YouTube. The show entails Hosts Jason Agnew, and Matt Chin as each week (Or every other) they go to a Convention that's in town. Be it the Shoppers Drug Mart sponsored LIFEFest, The Total Wedding Show, Everything to do With Sex Show or Anime North. The Convenioneers travel to these conventions to talk to people, find weird people, and generally cause chaos & Havoc where ever they end up.
The Conventioneers themselves are very controversial as Matt seems to generally piss off people very easily by harassing them, making jokes at peoples expense, Cop a Feel, and Jay most of the time ends up with not wearing his shirt and/or pants, but says that "It's the Usual at these Conventions" Their antics have caught up to them as well, in Spring 2006 they were banned from re-appearing at Anime North due to their behaviour/abuse of their media access credentials [1].
In the last bit of the episode Matt and Jay try to "Fit in", meaning that they will dress up to what the event is. At the Total Wedding Show, they dressed in Tuxedos, at Wake Stock, they Wore Bikinis, and during their trip to Calgary, they dressed up as Cowboys.
