On the show cash cab, how does the host know the questions?

Question

he cant be reading them off anything or talking to someone on a bluetooth because he is driving so that would be dangerous and im almost positive he does not have them memorized so...how is he doing it?

Answer 1

well, you're wrong. he is talking to someone on a bluetooth -like device. if u would notice, behind the "cash cab" there almost always is a white van. that van has the cameras in it for when the people get out of the cab. someone in the van is reading the questions to the host via a bluetooth type of device. they use the same type of device on tv news shows and talk shows. its whats called an "earwig". a mini microphone that a person puts in their ear and can hear things from someone who is in another room or close by.

Answer 2

If you notice he has an earpiece and the questions are told to him and he tells them to the contestants.

Answer 3

I think he makes up the questions using the knowledge he knows. Maybe the director of the show makes him study history and science and stuff.

Answer 4

The host (who is also the chief financial officer) of Cash Cab uses an earpiece while presenting the questions and while accepting the answers as correct or incorrect.
