A discussion on Parkinson's disease explores potential links to chemical exposure in military and industrial jobs, specifically near paper mills. The hosts examine theories regarding non-sugar sweeteners like aspartame and contaminated substances in the 1980s party scene as possible factors for early-onset cases. This was prompted by a donation note from Cynthia Hickson, who is seeking "job karma" amid layoffs in the Houston oil sector.

The show concludes its donor segment with a formal knighthood ceremony. Sir Steve Taft is elevated to the rank of Baronet, and several birthdays are celebrated, including those of Cynthia Hickson and Joshua Dale. The hosts perform the traditional "sword and hookers" routine to welcome new members to the No Agenda Table.
