No Agenda Meetups, Player Annotations, AMAC Magazine
The show highlights upcoming listener meetups in Atlanta, Seattle, and Zurich. They also promote the "No Agenda Player" for its new user-generated annotation features and joke about a host being subscribed to the Association of Mature American Citizens (AMAC) magazine.
A call for help is issued for the "No Agenda Player" website, which requires assistance with coding and annotations. The goal is to allow producers to add time-stamped comments and metadata to show archives, similar to the functionality found on SoundCloud.

No Agenda Player, Moses Hall, Chinese Domain Squatting
Producer Moses Hall is recognized for maintaining "Blugs," a site that provides show summaries and timestamps linked to the No Agenda Player. Conversely, it is noted that the former domain "noagendastickers.com" has been allowed to lapse and was subsequently purchased by a Chinese adult content site, serving as a warning about domain maintenance.
No Agenda Player, Crowdsourced Annotations and SoundCloud Parallel
The "No Agenda Player" is praised as a premier resource for the show, offering SoundCloud-style annotations and topic-based navigation. The hosts highlight that the tool allows users to tweet specific timestamps and is maintained entirely by the producer community. This crowdsourced effort is contrasted with previous transcript projects that often failed due to the high volume of work required.
