The program is designed as an amalgamation of MSNBC stalwarts Countdown with Keith Olbermann and Morning Joe, ESPN's Pardon the Interruption, and NPR's Car Talk. Spun together in a one-hour radio show, the program addresses the hottest topics and most controversial issues in sports, fitness and wellness, local pop culture, and current affairs from two insiders that have "lived the Olympic Dream."

The Manny and Eric Show is co-hosted by Marty Nothstein and Erin Hartwell, the two most successful American track cyclists of the modern Olympic era. Both presenters are three-time Olympians with a combined forty years of international racing experience and fifteen Olympic and world cycling championship medals between them. Contrasts of opinion, blue collar yet cultured, globetrotting but world weary, Marty and Erin energetically bring the wonderful, yet sometimes sordid, world of international sports to the Lehigh Valley airwaves.

Together, exercising caustic wit and biting humor while complimenting each other's broadcasting strengths, the team brings a unique and experientially opinionated "in the trenches" point of view to its listening audience. Although the program is created upon a foundation of serious thought and discourse in addressing today's relevant athletic, lifestyle, and cultural issues, humor, opinion, and tangential discussion are integral to the show's success.

Formatted to flow seamlessly between segments, The Manny and Eric Show works the edges of serious reporting and humorous news at a highly structured, yet comfortable, pace. With breaking news headlines, in-depth features, rogue reporters, a diary of local news and events, and inspiring conversation with weekly guests, The Manny and Eric Show defines the platform of alternative sports talk radio—think sports talk 2.0!
