The hosts read the final list of executive and associate executive producers for episode 1632, including Rita Harrington and Ruben Schwebel. They noted successful testing of the Stripe donation system and encouraged listeners to set up sustaining, recurring donations via PayPal or other platforms. These credits are presented as valid professional accolades for the show's supporters.

The hosts read the names of Associate Executive Producers and $50 donors who supported episode 1629. They emphasized that the show's survival depends on the small percentage of the audience that chooses to return value. Listeners were encouraged to consider sustaining donations of any amount to ensure the program's continued operation without corporate sponsorship.

The hosts read through a list of producers who contributed amounts under $200, including several "boob" donations ($80.08) and "biscuit" donations. They thank the community for their support during the "dog days of summer" when donation lists are typically lighter. This segment reinforces the show's reliance on direct listener funding rather than traditional advertising.

The final segment of the show acknowledges producers who donated under $200. Mentions include "Wuhan Batman," "Sir Chaotic Mass," and "Sir Ready Kilowatt." Birthday wishes are sent to Seamus Mac Jones and others. The hosts encourage listeners who left during the "PayPalpocalypse" to return as sustaining producers via the show's website.
