The Steve Miller Band canceled a 31-concert North American tour, citing extreme weather risks including heatwaves and flooding. CNN's Bill Weir reported that rising insurance costs for outdoor festivals are making tours prohibitive. Critics suggest poor ticket sales may be the actual cause. The hosts mention Miller's membership in the Bohemian Grove and a recent wage theft lawsuit filed by workers at the exclusive club.

Chris Bergstrom, performing as "Chris Vox" in the band Hairball, was knighted after multiple large donations. He shared his experience as a touring musician during the pandemic and how he transitioned from Joe Rogan's podcast to No Agenda. He offered his professional vocal talents for future show jingles.
