686: Fifth Column
Knighthood Ceremony, Library of Congress and Twitter Metadata
The hosts perform a formal knighthood ceremony for Sir Brian, Dame Patricia, and Sir Davy, complete with the reading of the "Hookers & Blow" menu. They encourage the new knights to tweet photos of their rings and certificates, claiming the images will be preserved in the Library of Congress. A debate ensues regarding whether the Library of Congress stores actual Twitter photos or just the text of tweets.
