Meaning where the hosts call some ostensibly unsuspecting “victim” and prank them, sometimes with the help of confederates.
I’ve always suspected that some of these may be staged (I’ve listed to a few “Scott & Todd” pranks back in the day, and they had one particular repeat victim that I thought might be acting.) Now I see a comment from Snopes that “*Given how often such radio skits are actually staged performances rather than live capturings of spontaneously unfolding events, we remain skeptical about the genuineness of this one, however.” *
So just how often is this?
