Michael Cottrell, 18-Pound Box of Pennies Anecdote
Michael Cottrell, a Canadian producer, donated $288.88 and recalled a famous show incident where he sent an 18-pound box of pennies to the hosts. He reminded the audience that Adam Curry initially feared the heavy package was a bomb, while John C. Dvorak encouraged him to open it on air regardless. Cottrell was officially knighted during this segment.
A major bomb scare in a New York City subway station ended with the discovery that the suspicious devices were merely abandoned rice cookers, not pressure cooker bombs. A suspect was taken into custody, though no charges were immediately filed. Observers noted that the individual appeared to have physical disabilities, and the incident was dismissed by the hosts as a "bullcrap story" that caused unnecessary panic.
A heavy package delivered via DHL sparked concerns among the No Agenda community about a potential explosive. Upon opening, the package was revealed to be a jar containing 1,000 Canadian pennies, sent as a commemorative gift for the 1,000th episode.
