Miss B the Bag Lady donated $250 to become Dame 678 of the Burning River. She expressed regret that her knighthood came under the somber circumstances of John C. Dvorak's passing. For her celebratory meal at the Round Table, she requested klobasa and kombucha, while offering prayers for the Dvorak and Curry families.

The show ends with a clip of Irish MEP Claire Daly criticizing the European Parliament's hypocrisy regarding the imprisonment of Julian Assange. The hosts offer a final "Adios Mofos" and play a satirical mix featuring New York Mayor Eric Adams. A brief tangent warns against the dangers of unpasteurized kombucha before the final credits roll.

Producers Jan Fury and David Van Root contribute to the show, with Van Root offering a kombucha starter. Dvorak declines the offer, expressing skepticism about the health benefits of the fermented tea, which the donor claims tastes like an Arnold Palmer.

Steven Ocher, relocating from Jersey City to Austin, Texas, attained knighthood as Sir Rutherford the Brave. He requested "Jobs Karma" as he seeks freelance photography work in his new city. The hosts jokingly promised to serve ketamine and kombucha at the Round Table.

The hosts conduct a formal knighting ceremony for producers Sir Peppy and Sir Tom Starkweather. As part of the tradition, they offer the new knights a choice of symbolic refreshments, ranging from "Hookers and Blow" to "Mutton and Mead." They also briefly discuss the health risks associated with drinking kombucha.

The discussion covers the environmental and social impact of quinoa consumption on indigenous South Americans. It also highlights "teff" as a new ancient grain and provides a strong endorsement for Lifeway brand Kefir as a superior probiotic compared to inconsistent products like kombucha.

This leads to a tangent about the legality of various substances and a personal recommendation to add a dash of sea salt to espresso for a unique flavor profile.

The hosts discuss Kombucha, describing it as a "gob of goo" or acetic acid colony. Dvorak shares his 35-year history of growing vinegar from leftover wine, warning that certain home-brewed cultures can produce "poisonous" vinegar that causes severe heartburn or ulcers.
