Paul Fellner, a Doctor of Education, requests a formal knighting as Sir Polytics, Baronet of the Fake News Feed, after years of executive producer credits. He jokes that his paperwork was lost between the "hookers and blow" and the roundtable mutton. The hosts officially rectify the oversight before the show's conclusion.

Secret Agent Paul provides a comprehensive "End of Show Mix" parodying Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start the Fire." The lyrics recap nearly two decades of news topics covered by the show, including Kony 2012, the Arab Spring, Edward Snowden, and various political scandals. The song serves as a historical archive of the program's subject matter.

Sir Paul Schneider is upgraded to Earl of Edmonton, while Charlie Gitson shares his success story of purchasing "Crater Chainsaw" in Medford, Oregon. Gitson credits the show's "Tip of the Day" and the hosts' encouragement for helping him navigate the business acquisition. He requests the "Shapeshifting Jews" jingle to celebrate his one-year business anniversary.

Paul Deliduca donates to complete a knighthood for his father, Thomas De La Duca. He explains that his father, who has eight children, prioritized financial responsibilities over his dream of becoming a knight for years. The son's donation finally pushes the father "over the hill" to achieve the title, honoring his role in teaching his children critical thinking.

The host reads the final birthday list for the No Agenda community, including Mimi Smith Dvorak and various producers' children. Credit is given to Tyler Brown for the final show's cover art and Paul Couture for the "Art Generator." A massive list of peerage promotions is initiated, elevating numerous knights to higher ranks.

The hosts compare the current situation in France to the 2020 civil unrest in the United States following the death of George Floyd. They debate Donald Trump's handling of the protests, specifically the siege of federal buildings in Portland and the creation of "autonomous zones." The discussion notes the perceived double standard regarding COVID-19 lockdown rules and the right to protest.

Adam Curry announces the release of a commemorative John C. Dvorak challenge coin, created with the help of Sir Paul Couture and the Dvorak family. The coin features John's iconic salute and various symbols related to his career, such as a Bakelite phone. Curry explains that the coin is available through the "value for value" model and serves as a tribute to Dvorak's 30-year legacy in media.

Curry recalls his first major live gig for MTV in 1987, broadcast from a gritty, pre-Disneyfied Times Square. He describes the chaotic environment filled with "squealing girls," sex shops, and the presence of celebrities like Paul Reiser and Sandra Bernhard who struggled with the unrehearsed format.

Sir Paul Couture has designed a special memorial challenge coin to honor the late John C. Dvorak. The hosts plan to distribute these numbered coins to listeners who complete their knighthood. They also mention an "Order of the Ant" pin as a new recognition for the show's producers.

Senator Rand Paul is calling for a vote on a resolution urging the Department of Justice to pursue criminal charges against Anthony Fauci. The allegations center on claims that Fauci lied about the origins of COVID-19 and his knowledge of gain-of-function research funding. Comparisons are made to the film "The Irishman" regarding the use of the Fifth Amendment in legal proceedings.

Dr. Anthony Fauci appeared before a Senate committee and invoked his Fifth Amendment rights 111 times to avoid answering questions. RFK Jr. claims that Fauci's private diary reveals he suffered a pulmonary infarction after receiving the Moderna vaccine in July 2021, a fact allegedly hidden from the public. The hosts criticize the lack of transparency regarding vaccine adverse events and Fauci's multiple COVID-19 infections.

Legal experts and senators debate the validity of Anthony Fauci invoking the Fifth Amendment given his reported presidential pardon. Senator Josh Hawley and others argue that under the 1896 Supreme Court case Brown v. Walker, a pardoned individual cannot claim privilege against self-incrimination because they face no criminal jeopardy. The discussion explores whether Fauci's refusal to answer constitutes contempt of Congress.

The hosts revisit the controversy surrounding NIH funding for the Wuhan Institute of Virology and Anthony Fauci's initial denials of such support. They discuss Rand Paul's assertion that Fauci could have avoided scrutiny by admitting early mistakes regarding "gain of function" research. The segment concludes that the current political proceedings are primarily aimed at dismantling Fauci's public legacy.

The Senate Homeland Security Committee held a hearing on widespread fraud in federal programs, featuring testimony from Senator Rand Paul and journalist Nick Shirley. Discussions focused on a $46.6 million Medicaid autism fraud case in Minnesota and the lack of upfront verification in government payments.

Senator Rand Paul is challenging the legality of a broad, preemptive pardon reportedly granted to Dr. Anthony Fauci by President Joe Biden. Paul argues that the pardon is too unspecified, covering a ten-year period without naming a specific crime. Legal analysts suggest that while the executive branch has broad pardon powers, the "auto-pen" signature and Biden's mental state raise questions about whether the pardon was "knowingly and intelligently" issued.

Senator Rand Paul continues his criticism of Anthony Fauci, comparing his 40-year career and influence to that of J. Edgar Hoover. Meanwhile, a Rutgers University study finds that mice in cities like Philadelphia and New York are genetically evolving to become resistant to common rodenticides. The news of "mutating mice" is noted for overshadowing political investigations in mainstream media.

Brett Weinstein discusses recent revelations that public health officials privately acknowledged the superiority of natural immunity while publicly promoting universal vaccination. He argues that the public was "gaslit" by the health apparatus, which suppressed information about the hazards of novel vaccine technology.

Following Tulsi Gabbard’s resignation, President Trump named Federal Housing Finance chief Bill Pulte as Acting Director of National Intelligence. The move drew bipartisan criticism due to Pulte's lack of intelligence experience. However, the hosts identify Aaron Paul Lucas, a 20-year CIA veteran and former station chief, as the "real guy" in the background who will likely handle the actual operations of the DNI.

The discussion reviews the performance of historical third-party candidates like Ross Perot, Ron Paul, and John Anderson. Kiriakou argues that the American public's hatred for the "Uniparty"—the idea that Democrats and Republicans are two sides of the same coin—could create a path for a trusted figure like Tucker Carlson, despite the personal risks involved.

Senator Rand Paul chaired a hearing featuring a CIA whistleblower who alleged the agency downplayed evidence of a COVID-19 lab leak to avoid blaming China. The CIA issued a statement accusing Paul of "bad faith," while Paul argued the agency is violating a law requiring the declassification of all COVID-related information. The hosts contend the cover-up was intended to protect U.S. officials involved in gain-of-function research.
