Show Features
Like other more popular radio shows, Schultz uses nicknames for a number of public figures. These include "Slant Head" for conservative commentator Sean Hannity, "the Druggie" or "the Drugster" for Rush Limbaugh, "Shooter" for Vice President Dick Cheney, "Rotten Rudy" for former Republican presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani, "The Mittster" for Mitt Romney, and "the pizza man" for Herman Cain. Schultz himself is perhaps best known by the nicknames "Big Eddie", and the "Big RedHead"
For legal analysis, Schultz often turns to Norman Goldman, given by Schultz the title of "Senior Legal Analyst." Goldman also fills in from time to time on the show when Schultz is traveling or on vacation. Tony Trupiano also fills in on Schultz's show when Schultz is absent.
The third hour of every Friday show is dedicated to "recession busting" where small business owners call in to promote their business for the hour.

“These, then, will be some of the features of democracy ... it will be, in all likelihood, an agreeable, lawless, particolored commonwealth, dealing with all alike on a footing of equality, whether they be really equal or not.”
