| ==Format== | |||
| ''The Alex Jones Show'' has a format which has remained unchanged since the program began. The program airs live and primarily consists of interviews with guests on topics relating to politics, business, economics, war, health, liberty, privacy, technology, and constitutional law. Interviews are normally conducted by phone or ] and occasionally with the guest in the studio. Interviews are anywhere between 10 minutes and two hours in length. Jones also conducts reports with his in-house writers and journalists who travel around ] and the United States compiling reports. The remaining segments of the show are filled with Jones' monologues based on current events and listener calls. These monologues have a tendency to run into heated rants while listener calls tend to be fleeting and brief.{{citation needed|date=June 2012}} The show is interspersed by advertisements, which often feature Jones as the voice-over. Most of the products advertised relate in some way to ], food, health or product available from Jones' Infowars store. | |||
| Supplementing the audio broadcast is a video stream, which focuses on the host and occasionally switches to a 'document cam' to show documents the host is reading. When a guest is speaking, a transition is made to either photos or a video feed of the guest. The video broadcast is available live from prisonplanet.tv, ] and ]. Several hours later, video segments are uploaded to an official YouTube channel, which is largely free of advertisements. As of February 2013, the channel has 250 million views and over 400,000 subscribers, making around 5 or 6 million views a month. Jones actively encourages his listeners to freely distribute his radio shows, films and other materials, which contribute further listeners to the show from unofficial YouTube channels that upload the entire broadcast. | |||
