Anthony Scaramucci critiques Steve Bannon's character, comparing his political decline to the "spitzerization" of Eliot Spitzer due to a lack of allies. He accuses Bannon of being a dishonest leaker and describes his own firing as the result of a "hot mic" incident that a journalist took out of context. Scaramucci maintains that Bannon's influence waned because he treated people as disposable.

Donald Trump uses the term "schlonged" to describe Hillary Clinton's 2008 primary loss and mocks her late return to a debate stage following a bathroom break. Reports suggest Clinton's delay was caused by the presence of Huma Abedin or another individual in the facility, leading to Trump's "disgusting" characterization of the event.

The hosts read various donor notes, including an encoded message from a special operations supporter in California.

The segment maintains the show's tradition of acknowledging "executive producers" who provide financial support.

The hosts acknowledge high-tier donations from executive producers, including Baron Jim Spitzer and Sir Lennart Renkema.

Author Ellen Brown suggests that former Governor Eliot Spitzer was targeted by banks due to his opposition to their power.

French philosopher Bernard-Henri Lévy appears on CNN with Eliot Spitzer to defend Dominique Strauss-Kahn, arguing that the reputational harm of the accusations is a "violent" and "cruel" injustice.

Senator James Inhofe describes viewing gruesome post-mortem photographs of Osama bin Laden, including images from the compound and the burial at sea. During a televised interview with Eliot Spitzer, Inhofe repeatedly misspeaks, referring to the deceased as "Obama" instead of "Osama." The conversation analyzes the specific gunshot wounds described by the Senator and the lack of correction from the interviewer during the broadcast.

Following the release of the Levin Report, there is increasing media speculation regarding the criminal prosecution of Goldman Sachs executives, specifically CEO Lloyd Blankfein. Matt Taibbi and Elliot Spitzer appeared on Anderson Cooper's program to discuss the lack of accountability for the 2008 financial crisis. The theory suggests that Blankfein may be used as a scapegoat to satisfy public demand for justice while the broader financial system remains unchanged.

Elliot Spitzer's interview with Muslim extremist Anjem Choudary is described as a "created piece of crap."

They mock Spitzer's aggressive posturing and the scripted nature of the cable news segment.

A new streaming server, live.noagendamix.com port 8000, is introduced to provide a backup for the mainstream.

Mention is made of the Office of Federal Acknowledgment and the release of version 3.6 of the PocketNoAgenda mobile application.

Dwayne Melanson and James Spitzer are officially knighted into the No Agenda Roundtable. The hosts then discuss a reported missile launch off the coast of South Padre Island, Texas. A New York Times editor reportedly dismissed the event as an optical illusion or a contrail, a claim the hosts reject based on visual evidence of a flame at the base of the object.

The nomination of Elena Kagan to the Supreme Court has sparked media debate regarding her sexual orientation, which some describe as the "elephant in the room."

The hosts review the "Top 25 Censored Stories" list, highlighting items such as Japan's questioning of 9/11, the FBI's InfraGard program deputizing businesses, and the seizure of war protesters' assets. The list emphasizes stories that received little to no coverage in mainstream corporate media.

The discussion shifts to the $170 million AIG bonus scandal, which is characterized as a distraction from billions in taxpayer funds flowing through AIG to counterparties like Goldman Sachs. Former New York Governor Elliot Spitzer is cited for his analysis of how AIG functioned as an insurance conduit for bad money deals. Questions are raised regarding why the U.S. government only owns 80% of the company rather than full nationalization.

The United Kingdom is implementing strict new laws targeting the clients of prostitutes, specifically those involving victims of sex trafficking or "enforced" labor. Ignorance of a prostitute's status will not be a legal defense, leading to concerns about how clients can verify consent. Similar strict enforcement and asset forfeiture laws, such as impounding vehicles used in solicitations, are compared to existing practices in California.

The resignation of Eliot Spitzer over a prostitution scandal prompts a debate on why the practice remains illegal and stigmatized in the US and UK compared to other countries. The hosts discuss the hypocrisy of strict anti-prostitution laws in a country that produces the world's largest volume of pornography. Spitzer's background as a "law and order" prosecutor is cited as the reason for the intense public backlash.

New York Governor Eliot Spitzer's resignation following his involvement in a prostitution ring is analyzed as a potential setup by political and financial enemies. As Attorney General, Spitzer aggressively pursued cases against investment banks, the New York Stock Exchange, and insurance companies. The hosts discuss the public's fascination with the downfall of "do-gooder" authority figures.
