A series of listener donations are acknowledged, including a "de-douching" for Simon Alicia and a birthday shoutout for the host's partner, Mickey. The "Pocket No Agenda" mobile application is praised for its ability to stream the show effectively on the iPhone 4, despite the device's reported hardware issues. Several listeners contribute "double nickels" ($55.50) to request good karma for unemployed friends and family.

Listener Eric Newman called into Leo Laporte's "The Tech Guy" show on KFI to promote the podcast. Laporte acknowledged his long-standing friendship with the hosts but characterized the show as a "morning show" featuring a "curmudgeon" and a "conspiracy buff."
