After announcing the death of "Gator", Martin is visited by "Gator's" city-cousin Jay who agrees to sit in on future episodes.Format
The podcast is produced in the format of a talk show with Sargent and Gator interviewing interesting people out of garden shed in Sargent's parents backyard. CEO
Jim Louderback told Sargent that the only way that he could do another show again is if he did it completely off-site. Revision3 would simply supply the bandwidth to broadcast the show.

[ [http://www.tvweek.com/news/2008/01/revision3_revs_up_production.php Revision3 Revs Up Production - TVWeek - News ] ]While each weekly show used to focus on interviews with internet celebrities, the daily show, Lil' Internet Super Star, usually featured a specific internet phenomena, often showcased by a video or a website. However, interviews taped during the course of the weekly show, like Sargent's interview with singer
Riskay , have ended up as extended daily shows. Lil' Internet Superstar episodes were hosted only by Martin Sargent and were presented as a monologue or a conversation with the audience.Episode list
