So what exactly makes up what we all know and love as The People's Nation of Get This? You'll find all the best bits here!

In the following pages you'll find: info on now-classic segments, gags and sketches; guests who have entered the hallowed Get This studio; salutes to individuals who are/were key to the sensibility of the show; key phrases; info on Illegal Download and the podcasts; and attempted explanations on just what Get This is all about (including Dave Wakeling's poem).

Overview:

Frequently discussed topics on Get This include movies, current affairs, in-jokes, popular culture, Martin's and Kavalee's own lives, Marsland's media and writing exploits, amusing news articles from around the world, and gossip from "celebrity insiders, startled observers, onlookers, sources, pals and lunchers" from tabloid magazines.

Martin and the others create various comedy sketches that include the edited recordings of politicians such as former Australian Prime Minister John Howard, musical parodies, advertisements and other sketches. Soundbites also feature regularly, with humorous comments, sounds, or sayings from politicians or the popular media included in various jokes, interviews, and songs.

The program starts off at around 2:03 after the 2pm news and the first hour 2-3pm has no ad breaks until 2:55 when the first 5 minute ad break occurs before the 3pm news and traffic. The second hour has one 5 minute ad break at around 3:30 for the traffic and then the show finishes at 3:55 before the 4pm news and then Wil & Lehmo (of course Adelaide follows the 2-3pm schedule except they air it between 3-4pm and skip the second hour). Get This prefers a small amount of long ad breaks as not to interrupt the show too much while other shows tend to go for shorter ad breaks but more frequently (every 15-20 mins).

At the end of the program, Martin will pick a key phrase from that day's show, which has at times extended to fancy sound effects and news soundbites.

Co-Hosts and Guests: 2006, 2007.
