Mark, Daymond, Kevin, Lori and Robert are in the Shark Tank for episode 1311. They’ll evaluate four new businesses seeking a Shark’s cash and connections. Will the Sharks bite on any of these businesses?
Nezar Akeel wants a Shark to invest in Max Pro, his patented, portable home gym that recreates the resistance machines found in a typical gym. Renee Heath and Bechara Jaoudeh hope the Sharks like bananas when they pitch Banana Loca, their kitchen gadget “you never thought you needed” that cores and fills bananas with spreads like peanut butter, yogurt or Nutella. Olivia Bowser hopes for a Shark’s help building out Liberate, an online, virtual “studio” that teaches mental fitness. Hans Dose seeks an investment in Tenikle, his bendable, suction cup mounted phone and camera tripod that was inspired by the octopus. Which company hooks a Shark tonight?
In season 12, Mark offered $300,000 for 22% of Everything Legendary, a popular vegan “hamburger” business. Less than a year later, they get an update segment in tonight’s episode. We’ll likely hear about their success getting onto the shelves at Giant Food, Safeway, Acme, Target, Ralphs, and Kings Food Markets. There will likely be some other news, too.
There are 26 Shark Tank Episodes for Season 13. This season features the six original Sharks: Mark, Daymond Kevin, Lori, Barbara and Robert. Four new Guest Sharks will join the panel in season 13. They are: Kevin Hart, Actor, Investor and Entrepreneur; Emma Grede, CEO and Co-Founder of Good American and Founding Partner of SKIMS; Peter Jones, Dragon on BBC’s Dragon’s Den; and Nirav Tolia, Co-Founder of Nextdoor. Also Guest Shark Daniel Lubetzky returns. Casting is currently closed, but it never hurts to get a head start on season fourteen!

Episode 1311 – The Shark Investors and Entrepreneurs
The Shark Tank Episode 1311 entrepreneurs will make their best pitch to the panel of five Shark investors who will use their own money if they choose to invest. The Shark Investors negotiate on the spot without any previous information, which differs from typical negotiations between venture capital investors and entrepreneurial start-ups.
Companies pitching the Shark Investors must go through a rigorous due diligence process before an on-air deal is completed. Shark Tank Blog follow ups help you keep track of the companies that end up successful and the ones that don’t complete their deal.
