The podcast usually follows a standard format: Introduction, News, Topic, Releases, and e-mails. Various other segments have also been included from time-to-time, such as Meri's Top 5 lists, Julian's ABCs, Mike's Fandom Theater, Song-A-Week, etc. One special topic was the "Manga Review Of Awesomeness" and later the "GT Review Of Awesomeness." Jeff, a friend of Vegetto EX and Meri, was at first only familiar with the Cell Games era of the anime in his first appearances. He was later brought on to go through the manga, and later Dragon Ball GT, from beginning to end, providing fresh opinions to the show.
