Typography comes up in 3 chapters across 3 episodes of The No Agenda Show, from September 2014 to December 2025.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio ordered U.S. diplomats to return to using Times New Roman for official communications, reversing a Biden-era shift to Calibri. Rubio described the use of Calibri as a "wasteful diversity move," while the font's designer, Lukas de Groot, defended it as superior for screen reading. The hosts discuss the legibility of serif versus sans-serif fonts in professional documents.
The "Value for Value" funding model is celebrated as a successful alternative to traditional advertising, supported by a dedicated community of producers. Recent artistic contributions include a 14th-anniversary typography piece and concepts for "Woke Wine," a potential No Agenda-branded box wine. The hosts discuss the logistics of private labeling for an upscale box wine product.

The hosts recount the 2004 scandal involving Dan Rather and forged documents regarding George W. Bush's National Guard service.

This event led to Rather's departure from CBS and his subsequent move to HDNet.
