The first few minutes of the show are usually spent talking about personal or "random" matters. For example, because of the location of the broadcast center, which is in a rural area, reference is often made to snakes getting into the broadcast booth. This segues into the next part of the show, in which current events are covered. Many topics discussed on the show are not discussed within most of the mainstream media, however, major events such as the Mark Foley Scandal or Mel Gibson's drunk-driving arrest and anti-Jewish remarks are mentioned. The show also speaks of illegal immigration, political correctness, radical Islam and the Leftest tendencies of the mainstream media. The show also concentrates on local events, such as elections and political activism. Guests are usually brought in during the middle of the show. The guests range from political figures, to musicians, to young adults who are interviewed in a "Young Activist" series.
