''Get This'' was an Australian Radio show that aired on the Triple M network from 2006 to 2007. It started off as a 1 hour show but was upgraded to 2 hours in 2007. The show was hosted by Tony Martin and Ed Kavalee (with Richard Marsland on the buttons). A guest host came in each day (only for the 2nd hour during '07). Despite the show growing in popularity and increasing [[Ratings]], the show was axed at the end of 2007 making it [[Too Good to Last]].
Line 15:
* [[The Ahnold]]: Tony's Arnold Schwarzenegger impression would sometimes get a run.
* [[Anyone Remember Pogs?]]: Tony regularly invoked this trope, but Ed actually [[I Love the Exties|broached the subject of Pogs]] once.
* [[Amusing Injuries]]: Ooh Me Plums!
* [[Ass Shove]]: Richard's alleged [[Unusual Euphemism|flag-waving antics]] are documented in an interview with then-Prime Minister John Howard in Podcast 51.

* [[As You Know]]: "Hi, I'm Richard..."
* [[Awful British Sex Comedy]]: a favourite topic, especially when Ross Noble would pop by.
* [[Bait and Switch]]
* [[Bested At Bowling]]: or at table tennis, as the case turned out to be.
Line 38:
* [[Digging Yourself Deeper]]
* [[Disorganized Outline Speech]]: most things that fell out of Ed's mouth (that weren't half-eaten sandwiches).
* [[Distracted
* [[Dodgy Toupee]]: At the end of Podcast 96, a whole segment is dedicated to ranking the dodgiest hairpieces in the movie business.

Ed: But Cage's is pretty funny. You know, it's getting to the point where it's "hehehe..."
Tony: And he'll often just wear a [[wikipedia:Tony Mokbel|Mokbel]] for a whole movie. ''National Treasure'', what was going on there? }}
* [[Don't Explain the Joke]]
Line 49:
**** Your body is a wonderland...
***** Flowers, flowers drifting by the paa-aaane! In mah dreams, so sweet, flowers red, blue and piii-iink!
****** I'm with me wiiii-ife, but nobody knows who I am so I'm the papers pretending to like foot-baaaaaall.
* [[Edited for Syndication]]: When the show expanded into a two-hour format in 2007, Triple M Adelaide continued to broadcast only the first hour, with all mentions of upcoming guests in the second hour edited out.
* [[Executive Meddling]]: The hosts often discussed, on-air, notes and "suggestions" the higher-ups tried to give them.
** An example in Podcast 107 was when the higher-ups at Triple M criticized them for not generating enough "watercooler talk", this only resulted in several sketches involving two blokes standing around discussing an actual water cooler.
* [[Everybody Owns a Ford]]: ...or a Mercedes Benz Vito. Or a Nissan Navara.
* [[Fake Brit]]: One of the funniest parts of Ooh Me Plums (Besides the whole Groin injuries in polite society thing).
** Ed often points out that Tony always sings in a fake British accent.
* [[Failure Is the Only Option]]
* [[Fan Nickname]]: Ricky M, Armitage Shanks, Dick Bar, Marslando Calrissian... the amount was insane (and encouraged by Ed) for Richard, here's a [http://uncyclopedia.
* [[Follow Up Failure]]
* [[Funny Aneurysm Moment]]: In one 2007 show, Richard Marsland makes fun of newsreader Charmaine Dragun's unusual name. Both Marsland and Dragun have since fallen victim to depression and committed suicide.
Line 64:
*** Exactly 12 minutes into Podcast 52, Tony plays the sound of a heavy rain storm and taunts "How do you like that, Brisbane?" Cue the Queensland floods of 2011, where Brisbane was massively devistated.
* [[Grand Finale]]
* [[Heh
* [[In a World]]: The Districts Swiftest Indian parodies this.
* [[Insane Proprietor]]: A semi-regular topic of discussion on the show. And Track 2 of ''Illegal Download'' discusses the inherent problems in dealing with someone insane enough to deliver such brain snapping bargains.
