Characters
* Charlie: our hero, the local funny guy gone 'big in radio'
* Matt "Chicken wing" Sadler: The misfit sidekick. For a while, Sadler apparently only remained on the show to serve as the donkey on a pin-the-tail-on-the-donkey game.

Sadler is also a comedian who frequents Austin comedy venues.
* "Chewus Aurelius": Chuy, intern extrodinaire and producer.
* Leon: a 5'4", 280 pound, mullet wearing citizen of Buda with serious emotional difficulties. He calls into the show sporadically, quite often ending with a drawn out tale to explain what a dumbass Charlie is before hanging up.
* Krystal with a "K": Leon's ex-girlfriend, whom he has committed suicide and written songs (with allegedly stolen portions) for.
* Dragon Lady: A listener who is frequents the show to participate in the "Dragon Sack". She lives near Lake Travis and is known for her love of partying and lotioning up young men.
* Alex Jones: he typically calls in to the show on a regular segment ('The Freedom Nugget') to rant about various geopolitical topics of heated concern.
* "Rio": An animal wrangler who often visits the show for his “Radio Safaris”, where he does his best to torture Matt Sadler.
* George Bush: Played by Charlie, this is normally accompanied by nonsensical references and generally casts GW in a foolish light.
* "Randy": The announcer who introduces the halftime show
* "Smokey Mcpot": The great stoner of the modern day and age! Calls in on fridays to take Bong rips, usually in dedication of someone thing or cause.
Regular Segments
* "The Freedom Nugget": the show's introduction is ended with "you cant stop freedom when it's in nugget form", followed by Charlie making explosion noises. Alex Jones calls in to the show around lunchtime to discuss various topics ranging the geopolitical spectrum.
* "The Aaron Tippin Moment": Charlie finds events in the news which represent some interpretation of Aaron Tippin's song, "You've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything". This simply means someone who stands up for something senseless and makes an extreme fool of themselves in the process. This segment has slowed considerably, as callers overwhelmed the show with their attempts at reciting their personal experiences. Charlie now turns on a 7 second stopwatch in which callers must explain their experience.
Homeless Karaoke
In the year 2000, Charlie and his brother made a CD with music made exclusively with homeless talent. The homeless were allegedly only provided items such as t-shirts, beer and tube socks as payment for services.
