Topic: Sir Benonymous

A new Executive Producer, Sir Benonymous, donates $1,013.33 and explains his habit of listening to podcasts at 1.5x speed. He shares his background as a listener who found the show while looking for Dvorak's old netcasts and reflects on how the show provides mental balance. The hosts discuss how high-speed playback and digital filters are changing human perception and the quality of modern audio.

The hosts conduct the formal knighting ceremony for Sir Benonymous of the 1.5x Playback. They review final donations from producers like Baron Mark Tanner and Sir Chris James. A critique of political fundraising follows, noting that the DNC is using Parkland student survivors in "shameless" form letters to solicit donations, which the hosts characterize as political child abuse.
