The show fused a mix of both pre-recorded sketches and live material. The latter was often a combination of scripted sketches, interviews with a wide variety of guests and audience participation segments. 'Radio Gladiators' was one such segment that allowed the hosts to joke about a specific ‘silly’ topic and then ask their audience to call in with their own jokes, creating an ingenious way for the audience to feel like they were a part of the show.

In this clip, Tony talks about 'Radio Gladiators' as well as the general style of Martin/Molloy.
