Topic: No Jingles

The hosts address a "make good" for a large donation from Austin Ramsdale and discuss the policy regarding the show's jingle repository. They explain that jingles are not released publicly to prevent theft by other radio programs. For new listeners, they recommend "Animated No Agenda" videos as the most effective onboarding tool to understand the show's internal references and humor.

James Lawler is knighted as "Sir Jimmy James of The Flatlanders" after a significant donation. He requested that three pennies be added to the "Penny Jar," a recurring show trope. Lawler's note emphasized his support for the "No Jingles" movement and praised the hosts for their continued media deconstruction efforts.

The hosts discuss the latest show artwork by Melvin Gipstein, titled "No Agenda Love Potion Number 33," which features oxytocin. This artwork inspired a new jingle based on the classic "Love Potion No. 9." They encourage listeners to visit the No Agenda Art Generator to view and contribute artwork for the show.

The hosts comment on the selection of Dan Polk, a Cleveland Browns fan, to sing the National Anthem at the convention. A humorous comparison is made between the musical arrangement used during the retiring of the colors and a popular "Donate to No Agenda" jingle used on the podcast.

The hosts acknowledge the show's artists and play a series of requested jingles for a high-level donor, Nick in Austin. The segment includes the "Let's Get Social" song and a discussion on show-internal "karma" and "douchebag" credits.

The episode concludes with a lengthy jingle medley featuring various public figures and the hosts repeatedly saying "the fact of the matter." Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak sign off from Marfa, Texas, and Northern Silicon Valley, respectively, promising to return for the next broadcast on Thursday. The "Slave Speak" theme is reinforced through the repetitive use of the overused phrase.

Adam Curry promotes the "Sounds of No Agenda" iOS app, which features over 110 show jingles. He explains a new feature that allows users to "dub smash" or lip-sync to the jingles and upload the videos. The app was previously delayed in the Apple App Store review process but is now available.

Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak open episode 366 of the No Agenda show, discussing the use of recorders and professional slide whistles in their production. They announce a special two-hour Christmas clip show scheduled for December 25th, which features a compilation of the show's best moments and jingles from the past three years. The hosts explain the process of overlaying sound effects and pacing the special episode for their audience.

Sir Jeff Smith is recognized for his long-term contribution of jingles and music to the show, including a new acoustic version of the theme song. High-quality MP3s of the show's anthems are now available on a dedicated page. The hosts recall how Smith began creating music for the program within the first 30 episodes.

Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak open episode 183 of the No Agenda podcast on March 18, 2010. The hosts discuss technical latency issues with their connection and the functional use of jingles in radio broadcasting as segues and bumpers. They reference an urban legend about a DJ locking himself in a studio to play "Surfer Bird" for eight hours.

Adam Curry concludes the show from the Empire Hotel in New York City, thanking listeners for their support during his personal crisis. He and Dvorak look forward to the 100th episode, promising to plug various community projects like the No Agenda Wiki and forums. They end with a reminder to visit the show's library and donation pages.

The hosts conclude the episode by announcing plans for future shows on Thursdays and Sundays. Adam Curry mentions setting up a PayPal account for listener donations and promises to produce new show jingles. They sign off from their respective "Gitmo Nation" locations in London and Silicon Valley.
