Norton and his guests listen to the stories and if Norton gets bored, he – or occasionally a guest – pulls the lever and the chair falls backwards, dumping the speaker from information technology.^[3] The red chair segment was inspired by comedian Ronnie Corbett's long-winded armchair monologues.^[4]
