The premise was a unique twist on the TalkShow format: The titular characters (played by Richard Snee and Paula Plum) would interview famous people from history and/or literature, such as Oedipus Rex, Paul Revere, Marquis de Sade, Charles Darwin, etc. Accompanying Dick and Paula were Johnny (Jonathan Katz), the band leader whose dialogue consisted almost entirely of [[{{Pun}} puns]]. Dick and Paula's nephew Andy (Andy Kindler) also appeared in "live via satellite" segments.
As with all of [=Soup2Nuts=]'s earlier shows, it was animated in SquiggleVision style, with the LimitedAnimation masked by constantly squiggling character outlines.
