The recent *New York Times* interview with President Trump at Mar-a-Lago is identified as a setup orchestrated by Newsmax CEO Chris Ruddy. Ruddy reportedly connected the President with reporter Michael Schmidt to facilitate a "fair" exchange, though the resulting coverage remained controversial.
Newsmax CEO Chris Ruddy sparked a media firestorm by suggesting on PBS that President Trump was considering terminating Special Counsel Robert Mueller. The White House later clarified that Ruddy had not spoken to the President about the matter. The hosts examine how the media used Ruddy's "friend" status to amplify the rumor.
Listener Requests and New Way to Watch TV Website
The hosts process a series of listener donations and "karma" requests, including a shout-out for the website "anewwaytowatchtv.com." Robert Stokes promoted the site as a way to watch AMC shows like *Breaking Bad* online following cable disputes. Other donors, including Thomas Lee and Mac Tudor, contribute to the show's "value-for-value" model, with some requesting "douchebag" call-outs for non-donating friends.
The show acknowledges several executive producers, including Matthew Moss, Matt Coughlin, and Chris Ruddy, for their financial contributions. A donor from Whitehorse, Yukon, requests "karma" for a new relationship and a business venture. The hosts discuss the "316 Club" and the importance of listener support in maintaining the program's independence from traditional vocations.
Matthew Moss, Chris Ruddy, and Russell Keller are formally knighted into the No Agenda Roundtable for their $1,000 contributions. The hosts discuss the upcoming "Hot Pockets 2008" RV tour starting July 15th in Virginia. Concerns are raised about the maintenance of the vehicle, specifically the tires, as the hosts prepare to meet producers across the country.
The hosts acknowledge top-tier donors, including Chris Ruddy and Francine Hardaway, who are contributing toward their knighthood. They discuss the arrival of custom No Agenda knight rings and perform "de-douching" rituals for listeners who have recently converted from being "non-producers" to active supporters.
