Scam, this whole thing. Life is a scam. This thing is a scam. Life is a scam. But he's in on the scheme, this whole thing. Death and destruction. Life is a scam. This thing is a scam.

This whole thing. Life is a scam. Life is a scam. Life is a scam. This thing is a scam. Adam Curry. John C. DeVore. It's Thursday, July 23rd, 2026. This is your award winning Get More Nation Media.

This is No Agenda. Well, with the passing of John C. DeVorek, I think is only fitting that I declare July 20th, a national holiday in the honor of John, the co-creator of the best podcast in the universe. Welcome to episode 1888 of the best podcast in the universe. Your No Agenda Show. Family, today I have a hole in my heart. You could turn a 747 around in. John C. DeVorek, my friend, my business partner, my comedic counterpart, my all-time favorite broadcaster, is no longer here to share the joy of what we love to do twice a week on Thursdays.

Almost 19 years ago, we decided to hit record on conversations we were having when I was living in London and John in San Francisco. We discussed the news, me on my side, looking through the Financial Times or the British tabloids, John on his side looking through the New York Times and the San Francisco Chronicle. We talked about technology. We talked about cooking. We talked about our lives. We didn't know if anyone really found it interesting, but we didn't care. We were just recording it because, well, hey, maybe someone out there would enjoy listening. From the very first show, we promised that this podcast would never have jingles, commercials, bips and boops, sound effects,

anything basically standard broadcast. And boy, were we wrong. We also never had listeners. From the early episodes, we decided that in order to make this work financially, without staff, everybody would have to be a producer, contributing their time, talent, and treasure. We called ourselves media deconstructionists, but really, we were just trying to impress each other, make each other laugh with the things we found or the punchlines we were delivered to each other. Since John passed, I've been listening to older shows, trying to pick clips, which is just virtually impossible. because every single show had something magic in it.

Even our notorious arguments were beauty in itself. We always felt that when people were uncomfortable listening to us argue or kvetch, that it was like mom and dad having a fight. And to us as broadcasters, that was a success. Because we touched people emotionally the same ways if we'd made them laugh. Now, don't get me wrong. We always wanted to make people laugh. Without even ever having discussed it, we both felt that looking at the world,

around us, the news that shoved in our face, most of it not true, or merely to promote some other entertainment product. Having the ability to look through it all and laugh at it would make the world a better place for our family, our no agenda family, no agenda nation. John was the most unique man I'd ever met. The first time I ever spoke with him was on an episode of Twitch, audio only. We were both remote, I think, and at the end, there was a little bit of chatter off air, and John said, hey, Curry, what's your deal? Are you rich or what's going on with that? I said, why don't we have lunch? I'll tell you all about it. That was the beginning of a long friendship and partnership.

The most beautiful thing about John is that we had complete trust in each other. The division of work, the consistency, even in business, the entire operation was based on a handshake. Even though the IRS later made us form an LLC because they couldn't understand with all these $3.33 checks and cash about coming in every single week. We rarely spoke outside of the show. maybe if a server was down or something had happened that would affect business process. We might have a short text, email, or a phone call. We never discussed what we're going to do on the show. Everything was completely unscripted.

And this is the point I really want to make. This wasn't just a show. It was a performance. It was not Adam and John just bringing clips in with their opinion. It was like a dance. Imagine that. Having the privilege to dance with John for six hours a week. We stepped on each other's toes sometimes.

but it always kept, we always kept dancing until the band was done playing. John made me a better broadcaster, too. His timing was impeccable. He even compensated for network delay in the early days of Skype, and we got into a rhythm where I would start the clip when his lead in was done. It was smooth most of the time. Like thousands of others, he taught me how to question everything, even the absurd, which would often require a theramine.

Above all, he made me a better man. I once tried to tell him how he was kind of like a father figure to me in many ways, which he immediately shunned and said, don't ever say that again. Okay, then maybe uncle, grandfather, brother, or whatever it was, I am privileged to have had him in my life for the past two decades. Many people came to know no agenda during COVID, which we had quickly figured out to be some epic scam.

As we worked through it with our humor, it gave a lot of people rest in a feeling that they were not alone. And while I know many of you came for the media, deconstruction, pretty much everybody stayed for the stories and the wealth of history that John had and the jokes we would make together. After each show, at the end of show, ISO had run, we'd probably say something like, hey, that was a good show. And John would always say, yeah, solid B plus. I would look for the opening clips, which is always funny to do, listen to whatever nonsense John had spouted out. Then we'd select the art, which we argued about often, but that wasn't too bad.

We check the credits together and we come up with a title. And it didn't have to, but John always stayed there for my final post-production, uploading to the servers, getting the show notes in order to it, 20, 25 minutes. He's just basically waiting, only hearing me clacking on the keyboard. When everything was up and good to go, we always said the same thing. Okay, talk to you Thursday. Adios. And that's exactly how last Sunday ended. Here's the good part for me.

oftentimes when someone is removed from life, you think of the things you could have said to that person, the things you wanted to say to that person. I am so fortunate because not only did I get to say it, I did. And he said everything he wanted and needed to say to me as well. It was all on the show. Never behind the scenes. What you heard was the real deal.

We both loved how no agenda nation grew. The community, the lingo, the different websites, the numerology, the inside jokes, the code words, the small family businesses that supported the show where their funny notes and their crazy promo codes. The meetups. Oh, man, the meetups. We love this so much because it showed us

that the show was bigger than just Adam and John. John took care of the business side of things, backed by his wonderful family, Mimi, J, Eric, J.C. Everyone contributed. The newsletter, which we have often told other podcasters are probably the most important business part of the show because we depend on your support. court. And whenever John said, donations are low or through a sad puppy, it was never a lie. It was always the

honest truth. And he was never ashamed to tell you and ask you to help for us. And you did. These past few days have been quite overwhelming. The social media posts, the thousands of emails, stories, and yes, many prayers. And not just people saying thoughts and prayers, real prayer. Reading through as many as I could, replying to as many as I possibly could, I kept seeing one theme. People would never say, hey, remember when you deconstructed that story or you poked through that narrative? No, it was always about the humor and the stories. I was blown away when just a few shows ago I learned about yet another job that John had had in the past. He was a never ending deep well of beautiful, hilarious, and informative life stories. But there's more in these

messages from our producers. There's a feeling of community, a sense of family, coming together with love for each other. Ask yourself, did you even think about the war in Iran during these past 24 hours? I sure haven't. There wasn't that kind of the point of what John brought us, a way to look at things from a different perspective, a somewhat laissez-faire attitude because it made you feel that he had seen it all before and nothing was new under the sun. And he's right.

It's clear that no agenda will never be the same without John. This family, this community that we built with him is too big and too vast to end. And while I'm not exactly sure how we will move forward from here without him, today and on Sunday's show, just like any family, we will honor the man who we loved, who we cherished, who we laugh with, and all valued as being part of our lives. My only prayer now for today is that John is in heaven saying, crap, Adam was right.

See you on the other side, John. Love you, mean it. everything has changed walking around the same old world it's never gonna be the same but in my heart and in my mind

you're there to stay I'm gonna miss you and always there for I hope to see you someday and I'm gonna miss you and it's there for me you someday Hope to see you someday and I miss you.

Always there for me. Hope to see you someday and... And on today's episode, we have a lot of John's friends and family. We also have a lot of donation notes, which you will be reading. I'd like to say first in the morning to Mimi, who is standing by right now, Mimi. I'm right here. You just destroyed me with your beautiful. It destroyed my whole system.

John's up there going, Curry, can't you get anything right? Can't you get that stuff to fire off right? No, he's screwing with stuff. I'm sure of it. Yes. So the first thing I just want to say is that one of the most polarizing things of the announcement of John's passing is a secret that I've had to keep for almost 20 years. And I would like you to explain it to everybody because, you know, I got people saying, Wikipedia's fake news. What's going on? They were like very, very disturbed by this. Well, John, when he was starting to feel his age 20 years ago, 30 years ago,

it had to be 30 years ago, he decided he was doing some interview for some, maybe it was wired, maybe it was something else. And they said, oh, how old are you? And he goes, well, I was born in. and he told me he was, you know, so he came up with a date. Except when he first told me this, he was going to be two years younger than me, and I had a fit. Well, you're not going to be younger than me. So he changed it to, what, in 52?

And so he told this, you know, this interviewer that year. And then something happened and he was in the New York Times, I'd say about six months later. York Times didn't fact check and just picked up that day. Exactly. And we went, well, if the New York Times says it, who are we to argue with the New York Times who always checks facts? I don't know how I found out, but he said, no, no, no, you got to keep that a secret. And he literally would tell me, if I die before you, you have to tell everybody the New York

Times sucks, they don't fact check, and they were wrong. And so every year when his birthday would come around, and we did a, you know, we did a, a special birthday number donation for both of us. I would always say, hey, man, you know, if only you weren't lying, we'd make more money out of this. I know.

It was our running joke. It got really awkward. I mean, I mean, there was that thing where I actually mentioned when I was doing the show that it was, you know,

his high school and I said, oh, we got to take that out because someone can look up the yearbook and see. So we guarded it carefully. Oh, that's, I remember that. Yeah. Oh, no, the yearbook got to get rid of it. I can't have that published anywhere.

It was one of the oddest things. It was just so, so strange. Well, the other things that the New York Times picked up is that he was born in L.A. Because he thought that was funnier because he was actually born in Fresno. Love that. We can hear a couple people laughing on. on the clean feed, and we have a number of John's friends with us. I'm just going to kind of go around the horn and see, you know, see what people have to say.

I'd like to bring in Will Hurst, who was often been discussed on the show, usually in the form of, well, I was my friend, Hurst, and we were on his yacht. There was always something going on. He was the best man at our wedding. Yes, Will, in the morning to you. Hi, good morning. Good see you. Hi, I mean me.

So, I didn't know that you were a best man at their wedding, and I knew that you hung out with John a lot. I actually don't think I knew that the friendship was that deep and so tight. Well, I think we met. I came out to work on the newspaper in the 1970s, and by the mid-1980s, I was in a more senior position there, and I was looking to hire somebody to write about technology. And I forget how John and I met.

But he didn't want to do that, but he did introduce me to John Markoff, who was a writer for Byte magazine. And Markov became our technology writer. And then he left us to go to work for the New York Times and he became the lead technology writer there. So John had a very good eye for talent. And I remember going to his house over Albany and, uh, There was a whole bunch of computer stuff all over the place, kind of like a warehouse. I'm not making a critical comment because my house is like that, too.

But John, you know, had people sending him stuff all the time because they wanted him to review the technology and write it up. He was kind of like a combination of Herb Kane and Walt Mossberg and Kara Swisher, all in one. If John thought you had an interesting product, the sales took off, and if he thought it was a dud, you might as well forget about it. And he could be very snarky. I remember there was a guy that had kind of.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, snarky? Are you kidding me? Devorak? Snarky? What? Well, he was, he was straight, you know, he was honest and blunt and did not worry too much about your feelings if he thought the product was no good. I remember there was a guy that had a board that you could put in a PC. And this was pretty early days. So this used to have a separate board for a parallel interface and a serial interface and a sound card and a memory card. This guy had sort of a supercard that had all the interface. faces on and everything. And you could tell John wasn't terribly impressed. And John said, well, what are you going to name this product? And the guy said, well, I think I was going to call it the blue whale. And John said, I think you should call it the white elephant because it's never going to sell.

And I remember he told me when we were talking about all the stuff in his house and he said, well, I'm going to write about something called the agony of owning junk. And I said, what does that mean? He said, well, you just can't get rid of stuff because you think you might use it or maybe if somebody gave it to you that you're still, haven't gotten around to it. And when I look at my own house, I think of John every time and his phrase, the agony of owning junk, because that's what happens to you when you get to be our age. That, you know, that is so good. And I have a closet from hell as well.

And, of course, we have, you know, I've only been to John's house once. I was only invited once, was for Thanksgiving dinner. And I remember saying, hey, man, can I see your studio? No. What you mean, I can't, I can't, no, no. I have never seen his studio ever. And Mimi, you're sitting at it right now. Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah. You don't want to see this. It'll scar you for life. You will never see it. Hey, JC, how you doing? Good morning, to you. It might be surprising, but not great. Wow.

Chip off the old block. Yes, yes, I hear you. Wow. I want to bring in Dana Brunetti as well, who is a mere associate executive producer of the No Agenda show. We pester him about this endlessly. But of course, we love having Dana in No Agenda Nation. And he and John became vast friends. John would scold you for calling me an associate producer. For calling you an associate? Yeah, he would. Are you, Dana, can you just check and make sure you're on your um i had to jump off i had to jump over to the phone because the the mic died so i'll i'm letting it charge and no problem try to get in a little bit if you want to come back no no no it's

fine i got you good man i got you good so how did you meet john i mean how did you hear about the show even so it started during covid when i was starting to build my ranch and moved from l.a to get the hell out of there. And I'd known John from Tech TV and CNET and all of his writing in the past and Krenky Geeks. And as I was constantly going around listening to podcasts and running out of things to listen to or things that were just super woke at the time that were just driving me insane, I decided to check to see if Kronky Geeks was still around. And I was planning on listening to it or riding on the tractor or whatever.

And I couldn't find it. And so I started searching on John C. DeVorac, and no agenda came up. And I was like, Adam Curry and John DeVore. That can't be the same one. Adam Curry is from MTV. This is, what is this? And I put it on. And I was like, holy crap, these guys are not woke at all, which was completely opposite of what I thought from just knowing him from Twit and Leo Lepore.

And I was like, it was so refreshing. And I just got addicted to the show and started listening to it. And then I finally donated and rode in. And he sent me a note shortly after that. And we just started conversing back and forth. And he had just such a witty, such a humor. Are you still there? Yeah.

Uh-oh, he fell off the tractor. Yeah. I don't know what happened. Oh, no, Dana, get back on the tractor. Let's bring in Marty for a second. Now, Marty, I don't think of every. even spoken to Marty? Right. Marty's, Marty was one of my

friends that John took over. He was from the, I knew him from the comedy days in the city. And the second they met, they were just thick as thieves and you know, I hardly got a word in edgewise. Marty, welcome, welcome to this special episode. I only

knew you as John's joke writer, which I always, I'd always like, oh, what? Did Marty give you that gag? Oh, man, back to the drawing board. It's a pleasure to be with all of you folks right now. John's been on my mind for the last couple of days here. Last night was rough.

A lot of memories, a lot of videos that we've got here, and audio tapes and things that we created together. John had a personality that just tickled me because he would take a wild idea and figure out how we could do it. and he was forever inserting me into positions where I could be, I could be very wealthy. And I'd screw it up because I'd have fun doing it. And I think I told them five times I could have been, you know, somebody big. And it wasn't in me, you know.

I did the pilot show for CNET and coordinated with John and got Leo and the only of the people around the table and cut that video. and then had a falling out with Halsey Minor, who was the... That wasn't hard to do. No, it wasn't. It wasn't. And in fact, we had lunch down south of the market. He goes, we think maybe we'll have the main show right here in the Castro. And I said, well, that'll definitely send a message.

And he cocked his eye, and I knew I was done. Yeah. That was it. And John appreciated that. And at the same time, he goes, I went to, John said, I went to their house where they were living out there in Pacific Heights, I believe. And he says, the only problem with the place is they didn't have enough statues of themselves. And that's such a delicious way of putting it. John had an incredible sense of humor, a great sense of timing.

I went through all kinds of changes, directed theater, had a film company, made kid films, worked at an ad agency, went up to Microsoft, and I used to steal everything from the development teams and send it down to John, so we could get a first look at it. And I was all over the map, and that was okay with John, because when we talk about Oswald Spangler,

we'd talk about modern art, talk about where music is going, what the hell's wrong with Vegas, and some of the best things I ever created or wrote were things that I batted back and forth with John. He had a remarkable talent. He was in that way he was a polymath. He knew a little bit about everything,

and he was an expert on it, just by knowing a little about it, which I used to say he's grumpy, but he's like my uncle he's a vuncular so maybe he's grumpy vuncular I think I think everybody had that that vibe with John

Hey Mimi I hate to do this Mimi but turn down your speakers Well I'm used to do it I need earphones Yes I appreciate earphones One of my one of the one things We never agreed upon was

I know So if you can term John just a little bit That'd be great We're trying. We're trying. Dana, are you back on? Am I here? I don't know.

Oh, yeah, you're coming in five by five. Okay. Just clean feed on the iPhone as I keep hitting on my ear. If John was using a CB complaining about it up and down, it's got to be a, the interface is a little wonky. Now, from what I understand is, I mean, you and John would talk, you and your wife, Alex and John and probably Mimi as well, would talk regularly. Yeah, we. Well, I mean, I could wait.

Every day I'd wake up. Either you'd either be a text message or a Twitter message or X message or Instagram. Not much to Instagram. But he would either send me something on Twitter, a text or email. Usually email. And then if I tried to text back, it would never work because he wouldn't get it for some reason. His phone was in the drawer. Of course he wouldn't get your text.

Transmit. But we spoke. like probably minimum once a week, probably two, three times a week sometimes on the busier times. But he would, and he would always, I realized he was like a night out. He was never up in the mornings

whenever I tried to call him, but always late at night. And usually I'd be in bed in the phone ring, and it would say John C. Dvorak, and I'd say to Alex, it's John. And she would always say, answer it. Because she was always mesmerized about what he had to say.

And he was, Alex always said he would be her phone a friend. was everyone who wants to be a millionaire because he knew everything and had a story about everything and we would always whenever her and i would get into disagreements or arguments we'd be like let's call john rather than google it or whatever he was our ass jeeves it's let's call john and so we'd call john and no matter what he was doing he would stop if he answered a phone and pretty much always answered a phone it was always hello and just straight to it ring like once and i would all and sometimes it didn't even it sometimes it didn't even ring

And I'm like, how did you even know? It was like a quarter of a ring. And he was like, oh, I don't know. And he was always on a cordless phone that had horrible static that he always denied and would say, I don't know, it sounds fine on my end. I'm like, I'm going to record this so you can hear what I'm talking about. Welcome to my life. He always said, I didn't change anything.

I didn't do anything. I have nothing to do with it. But, yeah, so it was, I mean, we spoke constantly. And then we started having some very expensive dinners that I paid for, of course. Absolutely. Whenever I was in the Bay Area, and usually when I was there for a horse show with Alex, or just happened to be in the area, I'd always stop by. And then I remember on a show one time, I think you asked him and said,

how do you consider a friend? And he's like, somebody you've had dinner with and dinner at their house. And I remember telling him and go, hey, I thought we were friends. He's like, we are friends. What do you mean? I'm like, I've never had dinner at your house. He's like, well, then come over. and eventually I went over with Alex and we had dinner with with Brennan and Jay at his house

and the same thing happened to me I'm like all right at the end of the dinner things were winding down like I can I see the studio and he was like no way I'm like I'm here right here is just right it's somewhere within feet from me can I see the studio and he absolutely refused I thought he was joking initially but I realized he's not he's not going to let me see the studio Mimi, why was that? Why was that? Why were not allowed to see John's studio? Wait, before that, before that, as a child, I couldn't see the studio. Jason, his own flesh and blood? Yeah, so when I, up until, like, I was like 10, it was like, oh, you can't come in here.

There was closed. Wow. And I tried, as a very young child, I tried all sorts of tactics, such as, oh, I can't sleep. I need, and they would be working at night because he works at night. And so the door would be closed. I'd sit at the stairs and be like, hey, you know, I'm a six-year-old who won't listen to anybody. And the door would open, and then I would go towards it and then stopped immediately. So the office was sort of like this sacred internal, the inner sanctum of a wizard.

And, yeah, the secrets are in there. You are definitely keeping the myth and the legend alive, J.C. I love that. I love that. Hey, Will, could you, if you have it in you, could you give me one of your favorite JCD stories? Oh, I do remember one time. We had a editor at the paper who was kind of famous for maybe being a heavy drink. Hold on. I lost you there, Will.

There was a lot about technology, and we don't really have a good technology writer Markov had laughed. We had some people that were good, but they weren't as good. good. And John said, okay, I'll go and talk to the guy. And I called him. I saw him the next day at the newspaper. And I said, oh, how did the meeting go? And he said, oh, yeah, the meeting was scheduled for 11 o'clock and he didn't show. And I said, oh, that's just, what do you think happened? He said, oh, you know, I know who the guy is. So he's probably still throwing up in 11. And so. So John was very nonpluses. You never did. did meet the editor. I wanted him to meet. He never did get the job and he didn't care, but

he could be quite a wit. So typical. So typical. Marty, you got one for us? Well, you know, it's, this is the, I wanted to crack up, John, and it was tough to do, because a lot of times he just smirk and give me another variation of whatever wise cracker joke I was saying, but there was one time he had a problem with his water heater on the second floor and he says you got to take a look at it's leaking i don't know what's wrong with it i said okay hang on i go up and i look and there's a pan under it to catch the water the bottom was rusted out i said yeah it's shot you need a new water heater and he goes what would cause something like that

and i got real close to his ear and i whispered the plural of the n word and he just started laughing his ass off he couldn't believe i said that but i caught him unaware just for a minute. Just for a minute. Oh, man. Yeah. Yeah. He was, oh, go ahead. No, please go ahead, Marty. Go ahead.

No, you know what? We'd talk about comedy and comedy in the 50s and the 60s, and he knew everyone. He knew all the routines and everything. And he had internalized a lot of it with the identity of the characters like Jackie Vernon and Bill Dana and all those early comics. And he knew their routines. teens inside out and he what he'd do is he'd wait for you to say something

and he just picked the right punchline and throw it out and that's all he had to do he could tell jokes just by telling the punchlines he didn't need the setups he really did he did it with joy yeah that really you know it's

I love hearing these stories because John was very able to keep it within my lifetime of of knowledge of culture and entertainment. And once in a while he throws something out there and be like, what is that a reference to? What is that called?

Oh, everybody knows that. I don't know it, John. I'm not so sure about that one. Mimi. Yep. What's on your heart, girl? You know, I do have Jay next to me and Brendan as well. So you can always call on them and I'll share the mic.

I would love for them to say whatever they want to say right now. That'd be fantastic. Yeah, I think that would be lovely. I'm going to swivel the mic to them. Oh, God. Hello, Jay. Hello. I met you when you were 15 years old.

You were a very, I think, timid, 15-year-old. Didn't say much. And I'm a timid 32-year-old. Yeah. Nothing's changed. Well, I don't know about that. But, I mean, you have been such an important part of the show in the past few years doing, I mean, really, you shaped us up to such a degree with the back office stuff.

I know that you and Mimi have done a lot together, but, you know, doing all the rings, doing the websites for the special promotions. It's just been, it's been so amazing. I'm so thankful for what you've done all these years. Well, thank you. It's been a pleasure. Sorry, I woke up at 5 a.m. to do the notes and the spreadsheet for the show. and the amount of like love and support that we received was crazy and I was working up until 11.

Yeah, I have a feeling. So it's all six hours of just tears and typing it up. Yeah, we'll be doing the show for a while today just to get through all of them. But we really want to make sure that everybody had a chance to say what they feel they want to say. Because as I said in my intro, we really are one big family. And I think people also see you as part of that. You know, I know that people email you. Because they'll tell me like, oh, I already talked to Jay.

Everything's all cool. Everything's all safe. You must have ongoing correspondence with a lot of our no agenda family. I do, yeah. I have back and forth with them all the time. They're all wonderful. Eli, the coffee guy, is really sweet. He sent a little care package to me and Brennan.

Decaf coffee since I have to live in caffeine. and yeah it's and actually Brennan the deadbeat is here my husband the deadbeat is here hello Brennan I I think I've already apologized profusely I did think it was really cool

when I I was joking of course like hey how's your deadbeat son-in-law and John the next show is like this is actionable this is actionable actionable you're going to sue me over this this is actionable you have to do something about this how you doing Brennan

I'm doing great and I love the nickname Deadbeat. To get a nickname is a badge of honor. This is true. But you really had a great connection with John because when he was staying at your house after the surgery, you know, after the show, you know, a very different dynamic because you and Jay would come in.

And I would hear him talking to you. I'm like, wow, he really loves this guy. You had a great relationship with him. I could tell. Oh, yeah. We had a, from the very start, you know, When I first started C&J, you got to meet him. He wants to have dinner with you.

That's his litmus, right? And he sat me down in the very first question he asked me was, how do you feel about Bordeaux? And then he poured half a bottle of cognac down my throat, basically. Yeah, I held you, I believe. I held you back, so you would have been open. It's an interrogation technique. Yeah, it's an interrogation technique.

And he kept me interrogated for a long time. I don't think we stopped, actually. No, never did. And we did a background search for him. Yes, I'm sure you did. I came up mostly clean, except for that weird stuff. But, you know, he and I really, really got to bond quite a lot in the last 20 weeks, especially. But, I mean, I had dinner with him every week.

and, you know, I was his gopher. I was his driver. Let's explain. John insisted that we have family dinners every Friday. Well, first it was every Friday. Move a little closer, Mimi. Oh, yeah. No, I'm, we're sharing a mic.

Yeah. So we're putting our heads together like where the, what do you call it? Three stooges, yes. There you go. So John was big about family. So for as long as I've known him, it's always been. we had to have family, you know, sit-down dinners. So, you know, so anybody that, unfortunately, Jay dated or J-C-dated or even Eric dated,

would have to, you know, come and get the John DeVorec treatment. Yes. Or as Marty called it, the DeVorac Syndrome. Thank you. And John would grill you, you know. And he'd never talk. He'd mostly never talk. And then one day, and then he'd get like a wild hair and just, you know, I think he needed at least two glasses

of wine. And then he would really open up during dinner. And I got to drive him around everywhere for, you know, when you got a crack sternum, they don't let you drive anything. Right. And I got to drive him around everywhere and talk to him in chat. And the amount of times he told me that I should start a podcast, so maybe that I'd shut up in the car. John was, you know, I love so much working with him because, as I said, nothing, in fact, when we ever scripted something, if we ever said, hey, you do this and I'll deliver the punchline, guaranteed failure. It would always fail. I'd screw up the setup. He'd forget the punchline. Oh, we were doing that. Oh, yeah, no, I forgot about that. But when we were just on the fly doing stuff, and this as a broadcaster, I loved working. with him so much because I could bring in sound effects. I could bring in, you know, we both enjoyed the art of the theater of the mind, which is why we also never did video.

We said, no, no, no, we're not going to do any of this. We want people to, well, of course, I did, but we want people to imagine what John's office is like. We want people to just, you know, have their mind's eye as to what's going on. And I just wanted to play, I have a couple, but one of my favorite bits, and I'm not even sure how it started, probably because people, you know, the number 33 was very important to the show because we didn't know what it meant. 33 would show up everywhere and be like, what is this? We, you know, had many people explained it to us over the years, but we always felt there was some operation, either operations go or operation to stop, some kind of military or

sigh up. And then people start saying, hey, you know, there's this Club 33 at Disneyland, which everyone is quite aware of. We knew that that wasn't quite the Club 33 that the No Agenda show would like. But John had an idea, and we came up with our very own Club 33. Everybody give for Amber. You already did Amber.

We need another. Raven. How do you know these things? Straight from Recita. Here she is. Raven. Give it up. Up next, Bambi. Bambi, Bambi to the stage.

Bambi to the stage. Wow, you do know it. Okay, I'll do Raven, then we'll come back to you. Recita, here she is, Raven, give it up. All right, John, go. Ladies and gentlemen, a big round of applause for that petite, hot bombshell Janine, as she comes off the stage, find her in the private dance rooms where you can live like a king with lap dances on sale.

That's for your discount coupon and free private dance card available at the bar. Buy ten dances, get one free. Now to the main stage is Sharona. She likes dirt bikes, dirty dancing, dirty boys, and Star Trek, as Sula would say, oh my, Sharona. Give it up to Sharona. Shirley and Donna, Shirley and Don, I'll be doing a lesbian act on stage two. Bring him up, bring him up.

Joey and Donna, these two hotties can be seen at the club on Wednesday, mud wrestling. You get a lap dance today, and the girls will give you a voucher for free entrance. Is that it? Yes. That is John C. DeVorak. He could do that. He could do that off the cuff. He just threw that out there.

But he had, sometimes he would have punch lines. and things that just became show staples, such as this one about Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson. Oh. And I have two clips. Oh. You don't mind. Now, what was your original position?

Yeah, the CIA or somebody came up to him and said, hey, look at this picture. Yeah. What's that in your mouth, you think? Oh, John, stop now. This is a family show. It's just a generalizing. The family show.

be eating sucatash. I mean, Sucatash, sure. So, you think the whole deeper. I'm thinking, I'm thinking. I'm rethinking my,

I'm completely, no. Wait, is this a Johnson pivot? It's a John, I have done a Johnson. Yes. He's got the right last name for what I was talking about.

Yeah. It was such a joy. When he came up with these things. And then this is another one. I mean, and so what's that in your mouth was a show title. It became a thing. whenever a politician did something, be like, hey, man, what's that in your mouth?

We know, we know why you're changing your vote. We know what you're doing. And then there was, there was this one. Then, of course, we have a classic, a favorite, the pansexual. You know what that is, the pansexual, of course. Yeah, yeah, you'll have sex with an animal. Anything. Anything that is.

Now, what are you going to do? Anyone going to eat this meat loaf? as the pansexual. I literally was on the floor. It was just that was the kind of stuff that he did. But he was also, he loved giving advice. We talked a lot about, you know, young people, what should they do?

The sock hop is legendary. Hey, you want to meet somebody. We'd rather bring sock hops back. And here he is with, some career and management advice for young people, which I think is something we need to listen to again. Well, here's, I got my piece of advice.

All right. I've given this advice for I'm going to give it again. Most people that will supervise you throughout your careers are full of crap. And that's the advice. The more you know. And they tend to, they can be played.

And I don't like to say that you want to play people. but they can be played by just going along with whatever they have to say. Do not be argumentative. And I'll give two examples. I'll give one example, a good one. Well, actually, I'll give a number. I'll generalize. Somebody will say, hey, hey, I don't like the way you're doing this.

And you're doing it, whatever way you're doing it. And you, instead of saying, well, I'm doing it for this reason or that reason or whatever, you say, oh, oh, okay, what do you want me to do? what do you think I should do better? I'm all ears. Be very attentive. And then they'll tell you the way they want you to do something. And then just keep doing it the way you were doing it because it's the way you do things.

Don't pay any attention to them with their advice. And within, I don't know, a few months to come back to you and say, well, so how's that new way doing things? And you say, it's great. You were right. And the guy will say, yep, I've noticed it. You've changed. You're much better than you were. and that happens all the time because everybody thinks they're so important.

Interesting. That's not the kind of advice I give. I give different advice because I give the same advice. I give the same, is that the same advice you hand out to young people all the time? No, I have a lot of different advice. Oh. But that one particular piece of advice, which is these supervisors are full of crap. And just to go along with the program, don't argue.

That's my stay in line. But keep doing things the way you're doing them. They're not going to notice one. They don't know what they're talking about. Well, I guess my advice is kind of dovetails into that, where my advice is always the same. Find out what you really like doing, what you really like doing.

Just there's something you like doing. You could be skateboarding for all I care. Find something you really, really, no, not like what you really love doing. And then find someone to pay you to do it. That's it. That's the secret of life. That's the ideal advice for everybody. But many times to get to that.

Anybody can do that. Anybody can do it. You have a place in life. If you need a job tomorrow and you have to go work a Taco Bell, what are you going to do? Screw you Taco Bell? Well, that's part of the finding someone to pay you to do it part. Yeah, well, you maybe can do that from the Taco Back in the, you try to get in the front counter. It's taken me 54 years to finally be able to podcast.

Don't knock it. And that was so true. I have my entire second half of life career to. thank to this man. The way we set up value for value, the way we made it all work, which a lot of

that was him, a lot of these ideas, a lot of the, hey, we got to keep hammering people, otherwise it won't work. I remember when we, maybe it was around the second year, I was in a hotel room in New York. We were just doing the podcast and we're asking

for value for value. And he called me and he said, hey, hey. We got $900 for this show. I'm like, wow, that's a lot. He said, this is going to work. Quit your job. This is going to work. We're going to do this.

And we did. And we just never looked back. And I'm so thankful, so thankful for him for giving me something to do as a patently unhirable person. So Adam, his job advice, he would give that to me and I listened to him. So he'd tell me to do things a certain way and I'd go, uh-huh. I just want to talk about wine for a second. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

This is, you know, John opened, introduced an entire generation to the Kirkland crate of six bottles of Bordeaux for about three bucks a piece. Everybody, you know, Costco was like, oh, wow, man, these things are going fast. So, let's start with Will. I'm sure you and John enjoyed a lot of exquisite and different bottles of wine together. Oh, yeah.

That was one of the things that we both helped each other with our addiction problem. But he introduced me to Kermit Lynch. I didn't know about that place over in Berkeley. And one of the last times I saw John was I got an invitation to go to the La Poulé, which is a big Burgundy Fest in San Francisco.

And my wife said, I don't want to go. It's terrible. So I ended up with two tickets, and I figured like, well, maybe Dvorak is willing to go, particularly if I'm paying, and I already have the tickets. So we went to that thing together. And it was in all evening stuff. And it was like half the people were very wealthy sort of technology people that knew nothing about wine. Then there were a bunch of other people that knew a lot about wine.

There were a bunch of other people that were sponsors. It was a very weird collection of people. So John had a lot of fun kind of introducing me to one or two people that he knew. making some comments, but we really enjoyed ourselves. And he was always pointing out to me bargain basement wise. I guess I'm a bit of a snob relative to John, so I would never follow up on all of his suggestions. But he had a very good palate and could very quickly, you know, make comments about wine. They were quite accurate. So, yeah, it was, I missed that. I missed that. He was, he was a good buddy to have a glass of wine with. He was also the guy, you could text him a wine label or a

wine menu and within three minutes he would text you back no matter what time of the day because you know john you know i could eat there's emails in his inbox that's hundreds of mine he's never read because i didn't see that didn't come in i didn't see it um but if you texted him uh something like hey man what wine should i choose boom and it was always like this he say okay nothing no wine should be more than 40 bucks like okay no that's that's just ridiculous and then he find one and he point one out Even when back in the early days, we, I come into San Francisco, we'd have lunch at Fringal, I would say, probably, his favorite haunt. And I'd say, hey, man, I got the company credit card. Let's just go crazy.

He wouldn't do it. Like, no, this is always on the price. That's too expensive. They're charging too much. We're not going to drink that. Dana, how about you? That is a complete opposite. Really?

He never once. I remember getting the bill on a few dinners and was shocked because he always had the wine list and would order. So I was like, get whatever because, you know wine better than I do. And that is not, that was not the case on our dinners. Maybe he adopted. Maybe he was just one of those, oh, adapt to this guy's budget. Oh, that's so cool. No, he was just trying to introduce Dana to better wines.

He was trying to up his palate. That's what John did. I mean, he did send me no. Order a case of this. This is good stuff. It's cheap. Order this. So I had boxes and boxes.

And then eventually I couldn't keep up with it. But we did go to a wine tasting once at a, we went to a vineyard. It was actually somebody from No Agenda was like the PR person at this winery. And John, he's like, let's go. So we went and they had the wine maker there. and they had a whole setup, a tent set up for us, and did a whole dinner, and it was really, it was beautiful and lovely.

But one of the funniest things, he was there with the winemaker, this French guy, debating the wines with the guy who made the wines. It's no good. John, I think this guy knows what he's talking about. He made it. No, no, no, the tannons on this.

This one is like, why the winemakers right there next to him. that's phenomenal. John was a taster for Bon Appetitia. I mean, he was invited to events all the time to be one of the you know, he did that, he was really a student of wine. I mean, you could throw out a year

in a maker and you know, and he would just tell you, well, you know what that tasted like and he could describe it and it was really interesting. I mean, you know, you know, it's a wonder I'm not a full-blown alcoholic.

Can I sneak one thing in here? Yeah, please. Consumer Electronics Show in 2000, John and I went down there because he was on a kick about going global. Everything's going global. So he wanted to go from booth to booth and get people to talk about what they thought going global meant. And we wound up getting a bunch of silly answers and a little crowd of people who followed them around who I think were like deep pocket money or investors. And one of them said, we should have dinner. John said, yeah, we'll have dinner.

we'll go to the Belagio. And we all went to the Belasio. And John got the wine list. And those poor guys, I have to tell you, I think it was about $8,500 worth of wine. And each one that came out, another bottle would go about like $3, $400 bottle of wine. He go, oh, this one's great. You're going to love this. And he poured for them.

He got him drunk. He had them pay for dinner. It was hilarious. What a great dinner. And it was John in his prime. just rolling out the details about the wine and the taste. This one has a big nose. I said, does it have a fright wig and big shoes?

It might be a clown wine, you know, joking around with them. And we're realizing we're skinning these guys alive. It was, I will never forget that in my entire life. You know, what a joy. But later, John didn't really travel much, Mimi. He kind of liked to stay home. I know that sometimes he would have, he always talked about having some speaking engagement.

He's on his way at the airport realizes he's forgot his belt, went back and just wouldn't get on the plane. Well, you know, being self-employed forever, you know, we had to sometimes scramble because, you know, our income could, you know, dive unexpectedly, significantly. So at one point when all the magazines started going out of business, I started putting him on a speaking tour. And at one point I was having him do like four keynotes a month and then another 12 other speaking things. You're like the momager. What's going on here?

He wasn't pleased. I can say that. So, you know, he kind of got, but he did travel. He traveled all over the world. I mean, he went on junkets everywhere. I, he, he was, you know, he did travel extensively at a certain point. He said, eh, there's nowhere else I really want to see. I've seen it all. I'm done. Yeah, yeah, that was, and I never liked to travel. So, you know, that was fine with me.

I'm not a good traveler. So, John, you know, he, you know, he would wear people ragged when he would go on these trips with them because, you know, he'd have PR people just like, well, I want to do this. I want it like, oh, if I'm going to Finland, I want to ride a reindeer. You know, that kind of thing. That makes so much sense. Yeah. I mean, yeah.

So, I mean, he was definitely someone to try to keep up with. I mean, even when we would go on a family trip, you know, we, like we went to, our longest trip was to South Africa. And I've got two kids in tow. I'm in coach. John's first class. South Africa is paying for the trip. The nation of South Africa? Huh?

The nation of South Africa was paying for the trip? Yeah. Okay. Nice. Nice. Yeah. And it was like, you know, I was always afraid of getting lost at the airport because he would just walk like he was by himself.

So he'd be like a mile ahead of me. And I'd be, you know, with the bags and the kids, slow down. One of the, one of the wonderful. things John would talk about is the many, many jobs he had. And it never, never ceased to amaze what job he had right down to Cannes Inspector. That was another one of my favorites. But I all, and I egged him on all the time to tell this story because it's about his job as an air pollution inspector and a famous politician. From now on, she's Barbara Boxter.

She's the one, as you recall, that used to try to pick up. up the air pollution inspectors. Oh, do tell the story again, John. You really want me to tell it again? Yes, yes, because I, yes, yes. We had two people, a member of the board, the regional air pollution board. One of them was Boxing, one was Feinstein, and I have these two anecdotes about both of them. But the boxer one is the most interesting because after one of the meetings, she would always try to solicit one of the air pollution inspectors.

We all had cars. And you were on air inspection. Yeah, I'm an expert on air pollution, believe her or not. Yeah, I believe it. So we had these cars and she would find some, okay, can I get a ride home? And the guys, all the guys would bitch about this because she'd make a pass at everybody,

trying to get him in the sack. Now, she's not, certainly back in the day. I think she's doable. Well, she still wears kind of horish makeup. Yeah, but that's what's so great about it. Yes, but imagine this being 25 or longer years ago, a long time ago. She would look pretty good.

Yes, that's what I'm saying. And I know, I think she probably was. But it was very annoying. Nobody wanted to take her driver. It was like everyone would scatter when she came out of these meetings. She looks kind of like a news anchor. You know, she's sexy. How was her body?

Was it okay back then? I don't know. I never fucked her. Aye. John. Whatever the case, it would be the funniest thing to watch everyone scatter. Jump in their car. She didn't drive off the fast as they could.

Hey, man, I got to pick up the kids. soon there went took off. It looks like she had dark hair back in the day. She still does. No, no, no, no, no. No, she's like, she's like blondeish, darkest blonde. Anyway, so. Black hair, as I recall.

So she is a super-duper Obama bot, and here's her contributions. She's dumb, by the way. That's a real problem. Wait, wait, how about, how about Feinstein? Was she horrish, too? No, not at all. No, okay. But she was just the opposite.

She was very prudish. and she was just but she was also she was I would say she was even dumber well listen you can't fix stupid we all know that that's what we say here in Texas it was a rare f-bomb from johnsy devorak and we would always catch each other on stuff you know if if we were constantly saying something like fact of the matter or uh anyway or whatever it was we would always be checking each other on the show oh you said Oh, we're going to, oh, no, you got to stop saying that. It was just a wonderful, wonderful experience to be in conversation with him for almost six, seven hours a week. Some of his, yes, me.

So actually, you know, him being an air pollution inspector is why I picked the funeral home because he used to inspect it because it's also a crematorium. No, no. Hey, you know, if he gave it a clean bill of health, I was going to go for it. So if you don't, so we, there is going to be a friends and family memorial, I believe. You want to tell us what, what's happening? Well, we need to plan it. So we'll figure it out by Sunday when I speak to you again.

So yeah, we're going to have a, well, we're having a friends and family memorial that we're sending out invitations to. And then we're going to have a public one for everyone. But we have to put it together. and I'm, you know, I've been a little distracted. Yes. It also seems like a lot of people are already organizing meetups in his honor, which I think is a great way to do it.

I love that people are doing that. I think we lost Will. I'm not sure if he's coming back or not. I do want to share. Is J.C. still there? Yeah. J.C.'s here. Hello.

Yes, J.C.'s here. Some of... Talk, J.C. I, I, I, I, I, I, I was just going to go back to the wine thing, but the conversation has moved on. Go for it. So at the table, which I think was mentioned in the past, in the show, which is that we do a, we've been, we have been doing a dinner every Friday. And he would bring out these wines and it would be, he would explain the whole background of the wine.

And we, but he would hold back one important fact. So we would try it and he'd go like, what do you think? And we'd go, oh, it's really good. He's okay, now this one. And we try it. This is even better. And he's like, how much better? And then he would tap his finger on one of the bottles and say, $10.

Exactly. Exactly. Exactly right. He loved that. He loved finding those bargains. He did. He did. With the wine, I started having reactions to California wine.

And he didn't trust that I would, because I'd get really bad headaches because of whatever they do with the. who knows he had a theory on it so what he'd do is just detest to me every once in a while he'd pour wine and he'd be staring at me and i'd be like oh yeah he's trying to slip a california wine to see what happens oh wow no way always uh one of the uh long running jokes on the show uh i just have a short short mini cut of it which uh needs to be discussed wait we have the egg book the vinegar book, the salt book. Now there's a vinegar book? Oh, yeah, the vinegar book.

Oh, this will come out after the vinegar book? Oh, yes, right after the vinegar book. And the Depression book, don't forget that one. I got to finish these things. Yeah, are you ever going to finish one, you think? After the vinegar book and the cycles book. Here's the vinegar book, which is almost done. Well, the vinegar book, I guess, is never going to happen.

Oh, no, the vinegar book's on its way. Okay, so the vinegar book is going to be you, sour, sour writing. sour devourc about douchebags you've known it will The vinegar book has now become a chapter in the Devoric family cookbook

coming out later this year So where are we with the vinegar book Mimi? Oh it's done it's done It is done It's done We have to edit it and get it laid out It's done

And will it be a standalone Or indeed part of the Devorak Family Cookbook? Well the vinegar book The vinegar isn't It wasn't enough for a book, a pamphlet maybe. No, no kidding. A jiblet, as we call it, a jiblet.

Well, Brennan actually is the one who John taught everything about his vinegar. Really? Yeah, and then he tried to get me to write the chapter for him. And then he edited. So he didn't even do that himself. It's called delegation. It's delegation, yeah. But the family cookbook is going to be out hopefully soon.

and you know i learned something when i was talking to me me and jay and brinan the other night that i don't know if you i don't know this but john has a vinegar collection yes i did know yes mothers and all kinds of stuff in jars i'm sure that he's been raising for like you know 60 years uh that i didn't know i figured he was going to kill somebody with it eventually yeah he's got cultures and you know basically you know because he'd open wine and go you yeah, this would be good vinegar. So then he'd open a different bottle of wine. So, yeah, it's a very weird.

I always found it to be the biggest annoyance of my life. But, you know, being his wife was not the easiest. But it's being understated. This is being understated a bit. There is basically a system of large, like, gallon, what's the, like, those big brew jugs. Yeah. They're not big than magnums. They're the big glass.

It's like what you make, like, beer. with. Cider mugs, yeah. And there's a whole system of them, and they have, like, different lineages, and, like, there's a whole, like, breeding line. There's, like, pure breads of vinegar.

There's a whole system by which they get mixed or not mixed. It's not like... You can imagine just a series of bottles or, like, mason jars in a cabinet. That's not what it is. It's a region of the house that is full of jugs. And then it slowly expands

when he opens a bottle of wine. He would be like, oh, it's fine. And then he put some paper towel in it, put it with the rest of the collection. And over months it would grow. And then I'd be like, Dad, this is getting out of control. We have to go through it. And me and Brennan would help him just like drink it, spit it out, and be like, oh, that's terrible. And by about 10 bottles, you have completely burned the inside of your mouth.

And no food or flavor means anything. And then he'll pull out a wine and have you try it. it. And he could still taste it. He was remarkable. He could still get the notes. He still had the nose, and my whole sinuses were fried. Well, there also, there was a fun little gag he had, which is he'd take one of the bottles out from the vinegar collection, which he had had for like 10 years. And he just points at the age and the year. And he's like, try this. And I'm like, oh, boy. And it's just normal wine. Because it was like, it had like an antibiotic bacterial or had some sort of weird. preservative in it. And so it was just like exactly the same as when it was first opened. And he was just like, see, that was the whole point of it. Just no further argument.

Love that. Oh, my good. Yeah. Some of John's stories turned into jingles that people just wanted to hear over and over and over again. I've got ants. Ants is without a doubt a fan favorite. So actually, I'll play the ants jingle and then I want to play another one in the original the original version.

This was done by Sir Saturday Night, Bill, who passed away, I think earlier, Christmas last year. This, without a doubt, is one of the most requested jingles that we played in the donation segment. It's a classic. I got ants. I got ants. I don't know if we had ants. We had ant invasion. I was thinking if you desiccated a big pile of ants and then ground them to a powder like a fine, fine grind black pepper, we were having dinner.

And yeah, I got an ant somehow in the meal and I ate it. These things are peppery. I got ants. I got ants. These ants, they don't need a lot. And then you see, you find all the ones that are roaming around here. I backed them off by doing the burning trick. He's torch them.

And you leave them there. The only ad are occasional moments where there's an ant that you do not torch, and that's an ant that's carrying one of the dead ants. I got ants. I got ants. I got ants. I got ants. Ants.

Ants. Ants. And, you know, that was real. John was such a complete, just a wealth of material that people love to mix. and remix and do things with. And so, yeah, was that J.C.?

No. No, that was me. The ants thing. We live on an ant hill. Yes. We're very well aware. And the first, the first couple days we were in the house,

I woke up to the bed engulfed with ants. I never heard this part of the story. And I was like, I hate this house. I hate this house. And, you know, you'd see one, you'd go, uh-oh. Yeah.

Watch out. When you see one, that means, again, they would only swarm. They wouldn't swarm at any normal time. Like, there wasn't a season. It was just like whenever they felt like they built up, because I would vacuum them up, you know. That was part of his tip. Yes, vacuum them up. Yep, that was part of the tip. But it was like a constant battle. And, you know, it was like the Chinese army attacking. You know, they would build up for a while and they just swarm. So, yeah, when he said he had ants, you know, it wasn't like most people go, ooh, I've got ants in the house. No, it'd be like, the floor is moving. Oh, no. I mean, John was always truth. He never exaggerated about anything, particularly his disdain

of a certain habit people have on airplanes. Just go for it, John. Tell us your peeve about the fissing method of eating snacks on an airplane. I see this on the airplane, and it's very annoying, and I think it were a result in fights breaking out,

because it's just so annoying to watch. Guy takes his bag of peanuts, and he throws a pile of him into his palm of his hand and then he makes a fist around the nuts and then he shakes his fist to try to bring a nut to the little hole stop stop and then he throws a nut in his mouth from his fist then he does it again he shakes and throws and shakes and throws it is annoying as hell to watch oh my gosh it just needed porn music your description is fabulous i got to produce that there is the there is the uh

that part of it. You can look at all these things as obscene, but that's exactly what you see. This guy shaking his fist and popping a peanut. It's nasty. It's nasty. It's very nasty. I agree. It's nasty. And whenever Tina and I are flying, we look at each other, I'm like, I'm going to do it. I'm going to fist them. I'm fisting. I'm fisting. So I know that John actually never really liked this mix that came in of fisting nuts, but it was another fan favorite. Just go for it. John. Tell us, your peeve about the fissing method of eating snacks on an airplane. I see this on the airplane, and it's very annoying,

and I think it were a result in fights breaking out, because it's just so annoying to watch. Guy takes his bag of peanuts, and he throws a pile of him into his palm of his hand, and then he makes a fist around the nuts. And then he shakes his fist to try to bring a nut to the little hole. Stop. And then he

throws a nut in his mouth from his fist Then he does it again He shakes and throws And shakes and throws It is annoying His hell to watch Oh Mimi

Tell me he hated that one Oh no John and I had a very similar sense of strange humor I thought it was very funny Oh good Oh good Because whenever someone asks

He was like Oh yeah fisting nuts You always grab He always groused about that one. One more story. This is my absolute all-time favorite John T. Dvorak story. And we haven't referred to it in many, many years. And this is young Dvorak.

And this is just so John. And maybe you'll be able to give us some back. You probably didn't even know John at the time, Mimi. But this is the famous. What? This is the famous motorcycle story. Here we go. I took my motorcycle up to Tahoe to see BB King.

To see BB King and I figured I'd gamble a while. How old were you? I don't remember. 24? Something like that. Do you have long flowing hair and a... No, I have very thin hair. I still have pretty much the hair.

What was the motorcycle? What kind of motorcycle? I was a Kawasaki triple. Rice burner. Okay. Oh, it was fast. Yeah. Anyway, if I got too long, I'd get these split ends and make my face itch.

So I never could grow really long hair because it'd drive me nuts. So I go up there and I go to the tables before the concert and I win, I don't know, $2,300. And I decide that instead of spending the night, I'm going to come back after the BB King concert. I go watch it. And I had a great seat. It was right in front. It was like a lounge act, BB King. And you were doing blow or just drinking scotch.

No, I wasn't doing anything. No. Scotch. No. Even weed. I'm on a motorcycle. Bad enough with the big gouges in Highway 80 that you could get killed just driving back. So I say the concert service service service around me and I say, hell with it.

I'm driving home. I'll save the hotel costs and I'll just drive home. So it's not quite snowing, but it's below zero. So it's freezing. I got out of gear on. You're aware that it's snowing. And it's, but I'm going to get there. Once I get down the hill, it's not going to be snowing for long.

Wow. And so I start to get, what do you call it, when you get too cold, it's called, hypothermia. Hypothermia. I started getting hypothermia. And so I'm driving a lot, blah, blah, blah, blah. And so I go into a gas station and make the mistake of warming up, which is, you know, because you've got to be cold, you want to kind of keep you, you, you don't want to go warm, cold,

warm, warm, cold. So I got, so I started shivering like a maniac after I left the gas. After I left the gas station, after I warmed up, so I started driving. On the entrance, there is a beautiful woman hitchhiking. I mean, dynamite. She was dressed up in a lot of years ago. You can just see her face. She's fantastic.

And so she's hitchhiking. And I pull over to ask her if she wants to go. But I'm so cold and freezing. I say to her, I don't know. And she takes a look at me like I'm a crazy guy. She pulls out her gun. No, she slowly walks backwards like Homer Simpson. There's no thanks.

And I realized, like, well, fuck her. And so I said, fuck it. And I just drove up. Yeah, it's right. Yeah, I couldn't talk. How to Pick Up Chicks by John C. DeVorek. One of my favorite stories. So, Adam, do we have a thing?

Did Andrew Horowitz record something to you? Yes, we did. And I'm glad you said that because I was going to suggest the following. I talked to him for about 20 minutes. And, you know, the DH unplug started not long after no agenda. Right. Like maybe less than a year, I think. It was pretty quick.

And Andrew, he had a. a meniscus operation today and he was under general anesthesia and so he really wanted to be a part of this and he's been a big part of John's life too. So I recorded about 20 minutes with him. I suggest everybody who's on the on the clean feed, you can sit back, relax for a second and then maybe after that, just looking at the time, we come back and we start seeing what Gitmo Nation has to say for John? I think that's a lovely idea. Okay.

All right. Let's go to my conversation with Andrew Horowitz, who for many, many years, at least 17, 18 years on Tuesday nights, did the DH on Plug show with John C. DeVorek. All right, Andrew. We're sorry that you are not able to be here with us live on Thursday, but this is the next best.

thing. Yeah, I am possibly right now either recovering or still sleeping. I don't know. I was like, what's wrong with you? Just bring a rig into the hospital. This is the problem. Come on, man. Let's not be a pussy about it. Fortunately, it's outpatient. Just don't get anybody crazy because they get all nervous now that we're all going to leave them. You know? Oh, man. Just a little meniscus repair. Yes. So that's happening tomorrow. But I love the, I love the video you put on X. That was just, I could not. You could not have said it better. It was just so, so perfect. You know what?

He was such an influence and such, listen, he was so kooky, but such, at the same time, so brilliant. Did you ever have a disagreement with him on the show, like, or like anger type stuff ever that carried over until the end? Because I was just telling Tina, like, we would get into, let's call him disagreements. But, you know, certainly in the early. years. I was pretty hot-headed and then after the show, we'd be arguing loudly. But it always ended like this. Okay, so we do the art? Yeah, let's do the art. All right. We never, ever, ever left the show angry at each other. Yeah, it's like that rule that I have in my house is never go to bed angry. Well, that's in the Bible, my brother. Yeah, well, sometimes I stay awake all night because I'm

pissed off. I just won't go to bed. But it's a little worn out. Never. Never. I really, there was not a lot of controversial stuff that we talked about, I guess. Well, I guess it was. But we were always, he was kind of on one side of the discussion. I was kind of on the other.

But it was never at a point that it got so heated that I recall that I was worried, like, am I ever going to do another show with this guy? This rat scoundrel? No, it never got like that. I never had that either. We never ever had that. We never ever had that. we always ended and then I see you Thursday.

By the way, that's how the last show. And I'm asking you, yeah, adios. That was it. Click, that was it. That was it. Although, to be honest about it, he sent me a text message. And let me see if I can find this now. He sent me a text message after the show.

And what was it? Oh, man. He says, all uppercase. The title is fucked up, by the way, on the site. One quote mark with the word copy. Also down below, it says copy on the show number page. And I said, I will fix. And I said, but why are you yelling?

One thing that I got to say, of all John's brilliance and his eloquence and his ability to kind of rev it up and back it off and all the beautiful things he did, he was a horrible technical. Not just that, but, I mean, I developed an entire new interpretation of John C. DeVorek language and spelling. Because he's a, oh yeah, there's this clip. I'm like, uh, okay. He would have different spelling or, you know, you would have one clip would be number one, number two would be TWA. I mean, he, he definitely, and this is not so much. something new. This went on from the beginning. He was amazing. By the way, I did a little research on something. Just I want to kind of make sure I say this note.

So, no agenda. First episode, October 26, 2007. Right? That's, I think that's a question. I think it was 2008, actually. Really? I think so. No, no. I look. No, you're right. It's 2007 because before Obama became president. You're right, 2007. Yes. Right. Um, the discipline of

by the way, March 7th, 2007. Now, so a few months before that. I want to go to the genesis of that. I don't mean to interrupt because how you met was, I guess, through Podshow or Mevio. Doesn't that make, is that how it happened? I think either that, O'Leoport, we were, there was something between Mevio, pod show, and I think, I think I went out to Leo Leport to do, I was doing something in California. Leo invited me on his show.

It was that time when the whole world was about to implode with technology. He's somewhere along the lines there because just to kind of give you the advance on that, somewhere between March 7, 2007 and November 2008. That's when D.H.M. Plug started. Wow. Because if I recall, you came in, you wanted to talk to Ron Bloom. Oh, yes. Because you were like, hey, these MIVO guys.

It was a pod show then. I don't remember we had changed the MIVO. And I remember meeting, you know, like, oh, that's an interesting guy. And then I remember Dvorak immediately going, yeah, this Horowitz guy, we should do something with him. I'm like, I don't know. You know, what are we going to do with the whole system? We didn't know what we were doing at all with me, the own pod show. And all I know is that he kept in touch with you and then suddenly you were doing a show together.

That's how I kind of recall it. Yeah, that was what happened. And he and I started talking literally once a week. This is a true story. Once a week. I remember this very distinctly because I was having a basic panic attack. meltdown in in 2000, late 2007.

And I remember we started talking and talking finance and we talked for like an hour. And I remember so distinctly me walking around my pool in my backyard like circle, circle, circle, circle. Is this because you saw the collapse coming of 2008? Oh, wow. Yeah. I was freaking out. I was totally freaking out.

And he's talking to me and he's like, everybody else is like, shut up. And John's like, let's do a show. Actually, he said to me, after many, many weeks of us just talking. talking. He goes, you know what? I'm like, what you? He goes, dude. He goes, people would love to hear this. I'm like, what are you talking about? Who wants to hear this? That is, that is exactly the same way we started. Yeah. Because I was in London and I'd come out to San Francisco every couple of weeks and I'd be back in London. And then we just talk on the, on Skype at the time. It would be talking and he said, you know, we should record this. I'm like, okay. And that was literally how we started. Like,

Okay, so that was the same with you guys. That's interesting. I love that. And then you were in London for a while after, because the first time I ever met you in person was in London. Was in London. When you brought your son to London. I brought my son and you showed me that you were carrying like a piece of gold on you or something like that.

I was like, what's with this dude? What's with that? Hey, man, I got an ounce of gold on me just in case. Just in case it all goes to crap, man. I got my gold. Yeah. That's exactly. Well, so John is really the kind of the common denomination.

The connector between, yeah, is the gloom between us two. Yeah. Yep, yeah, exactly. And, of course, we attended your wedding with your pretty. Yes. And we spent other times together. I never really spent a lot of time with John personally, because we spent all this time weekly.

I think the same thing with you. I mean, we got together here and there, maybe literally in our lifetimes, maybe if it was four times, it was a lot. You know, just about the wedding, to, I'll always remember this. So I said, John, you got to come. You named you the keeper. You got to come to the wedding. Then you and Mimi both got to come.

So the first of all, they came on separate flights and like, okay, whatever. And then, you know, we had a, like a,

for friends and family, kind of come by the house, hang out a little bit. And it was from, I don't know, from six to eight. And like at five minutes to eight, John shows up.

In a rental car. He comes in, hey, hey, hey, how you doing? Oh, I thought it was starting at eight. Oh, yeah.

Hey, you got a TV. I got to watch the game. Yeah. I remember. And he says, how he starts watching the game. And he wasn't quite in party clothes,

if I remember correctly. No, no, no, not at all. And that was John. You know, that was John. That was John.

It's just, yeah, man, I don't know about you because we're in a unique situation. We both, I did a very long running podcast with him. And for me, it's like,

people have to understand. And I'm sure it was the same with you. It wasn't like Adam and John sat down and played some clips and did a show. It was, honestly, my whole mission most of the time was I want to even make him laugh or I want to say something that he thinks is really cool or good. That was really most of the show to me. And, you know, and I love arguing or pushing back or, you know, any of that stuff. But, you know, it was like, I don't.

I'm at a loss now. It's like, I am so at a loss as to what to do. I don't know how you feel, but I'm like, you can't just plug someone in and say, oh, this is DH unplugged or this is no agenda. You just can't do that. No, no. But for the audience, by the way, we're going to figure out something. I'm not sure what that's going to be.

And we just put on on DHMplug.com. We put a new link for, right on the front page, actually, for to get on the mailing list, the newsletter in case somebody wants to, you know, not be. lost about this. We'll have updates of what's happening on that. Next week, I think we're going having JC on the show. Welcome back. Oh, that's nice. And I think Mimi wants to come on and say a few things too. But definitely JC, the audience liked him. So we'll see what goes on with that. And I know, I think I know that John would have liked something to continue. I don't know what it is. I don't know what it looks like. I don't know how it's going to play, but I know that he wants

the show to go on, right? And, you know, I was, I was thinking about John, all the different things that I loved about him. And one of the things that annoyed the crap out of me, which was great, always, always, we're talking on the show and I would talk about something and I'd stop trying to get any response from him and I'd be, this pregnant pause. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, the front of the long pause. Do I, do I say, do I get in there? Do I get in there? Do I ever get this in the early day? of Bluetooth headsets, people would email me and say, you know, when you guys have that long pause, my Bluetooth headset disconnects. Oh, God.

And I started to find that to be a feature. I'm like, oh, this is kind of cool. And we have a pause, which is very, you don't hear many pauses in podcasts or radio. You know, people are always trying to fill the gaps. I started to really enjoy it. Like, oh, yeah, I want people to be like, do my phone just stop? They looked down, and then all of a sudden a voice would come. I love that.

We both, John and I both, we discussed it many times. I love the silence. Silence is so powerful. Good job. Very good, Andrew. Very good, good, good job. I love you, man. No, but he would do that, and I would be, I was, I'm always off-sided when he does that.

Like, do I go to the next story? Should I, should I say something to say John? So I end up going, so what do you think? You know, I'd have to wait. John, what's your take on that? I mean, you know, or the best, which is usually what would happen, because I'd go to the next story and all of a sudden, chirp up. He's talking about the other story.

I'm like, oh, okay, we'll go back to that. Yeah. So there's the one thing that I feel that you and I have in common. We have a lot of things in common. But we understood John for who he was and what he was. And I think in general that the mass audiences, they didn't understand him. Does that make any sense?

Yeah. I mean, I think a lot of people saw him as a... Or maybe I should say not the mass audiences, but the big broadcasters. They did not understand him. They did not get the humor. They did not see the uniqueness. Right.

That's clear. And John was a broadcaster, man. We talked about levels and compression. And we talked about this stuff all the time. He really, really understood broadcasting extremely well. Yeah, he was, again, yes. He would be on the show and, like, I think I have to reboot. My computer's not working.

My mic's not on. There's that. Yeah. You know, there's always something. going on with that. The mic doesn't work. Get closer. He's overmodulating. And my show, I don't know what the story was, but every time we'd come on through the opening Yeah, the opening of the show, yeah. He'd come on and he'd say, I'm John C. Dvorak. Now, there was a time when the opening would come and all of a sudden he'd just chime in out of no.

I said, what's going on? He goes, I didn't hear the opening. I'm like, what do you mean? And I guess there was a setting that was not right on my system or something. I'm like, how long is that going on? And he would just guess, I'll start here. He goes, I don't know if the last month or so. I'm like, what? And this is something I can only discuss with you. What drove me crazy is he never wore headphones.

Yeah, I know, I know. You and I are crazy audio file. Yes, right? This sounds going to be just right. Our setting, you have to have the big bass, the oral excite, the whole thing. The bottom. Right, we can have all of that stuff. And John, and John's got this, you know, high LPR 40 that he loves,

which I'm looking at money that I bought. I bought that one because he had it. And I got the, the voice, electro voice, because you got it, that I'm talking on right now. But he would talk on that. And he would come on. And it would be like this. What was, what happened?

Where's that? And then it would come out, the rest of the show would be fine. Between your show and our show, that would always. So he'd come on Thursday. show after the Tuesday show and it'll be like boy how's this sad it's so good and then invariably it would be like completely digitized he sound like

whir-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-you-re- And I'm like how does it? But it's always the same always the same answer. I didn't change anything. Nothing. Nothing's changed. It's a goddamn windows. It's a goddamn window show. The windows machine this window machine. Oh, how about this? It must have done an update.

Yeah. I always do an update. It was always something. It was always something. I just love seeing the outpouring of people. How many people just, you know, they're shocked. I mean, you and I are shocked. Everybody's shocked.

But the degree of people just going, wait a minute. No, no, no. No, this guy was a part of my life. He's a part of my week. like, no, no, no, this can't be. It's, it's really heartwarming to see. Because, you know, John was polarizing, you know, and people email me about, hey, Devorac, and people email him.

Ah, Curry. But now those same people are like, oh, wow, what just happened here? I think, I think that my hope with this is always, now, this is, by the way, the second friend that I've lost in the last month or so, last certain friend had cancer. He was 65 years old. And I hope, seriously, I know that these things could be those moments that are just like you have that inner thought and you have that ability to start to do some introspection and looking at your life. But I hope that it lasts, that people recognize that not only how great John was that. We know that.

But how short life is. He was 74 years old. Well, okay. So you probably, you probably don't know the story. So I should probably let you know. know, and this will be discussed, this may have already been discussed in our, in our live show here.

When we started doing birthdays, I can't remember exactly how I found out, but I found out that John was really six years older than he claimed to be. And he told me, he said, no, no, you have to understand that Wired Magazine, once wrote down my birth date incorrectly, and the New York Times just copied that without fact-checking,

and he said several times, so if I die before you, you need to call out the New York Times as bull crap. And so every year, when his birthday came around and we do a donation for the number, I would always say after the show, you know, if you weren't a liar about your age, we'd be making more money.

Oh, God. So, yeah, he was 80. He was 80. And I've told some close friends over the years, I'm like, what? I said, oh, yeah, you have no idea. This guy is spry. And I think our shows kept him, you know, kept him that way too.

Kept him active and busy and doing stuff. But yeah, he was 80. Shocked, shocked to hear that. You didn't know, right? I know, I actually, I'm trying to look up as, I actually have his age right here, but I can't seem to get into my system to do this right now. Oh, because you have some financial documents.

Yes. Yeah, it was from 46. Oh, here we go. Here we go. It should go in. Oh, no, I got to, no, I, now you're going to fact. Identicator, I got to do that. Trust me.

Trust me. Trust me. And it was still young. No matter how many of you slice it. Of course. Of course it is. The point I'm making here is that life is really short. It's short.

It's really short. And if you don't think it is, trust me, it starts speeding up. It's freaking July already. Yeah. It's speeding up like crazy. Things are happening. The, the, sitting on the couch and just, you know, doing nothing during the day and not making a mark on this earth.

I mean, John made a mark, whether it's his, you know, theoretical vinegar book that he's going to put out or his other cycle books that maybe will come out one day or whatever it is. But he made a mark. The, was it the Depression book? Yeah, there's a lot of books. A lot of books that are in the works. You know, there's so many things I appreciate it about him. He got me into Ham Radio. I love that.

that he got me. Yeah, he was 80. Got me in the ham. Yeah, got me in the ham radio. But his incessant, no, I got the phone in a drawer. And no, when I drive around town, I use a map, you know, or I drive from memory. That was just one of those things that made him so, so unique. And I always took that to heart.

You know, he taught me a lot. I think he taught me a lot more than I ever taught him. And it's, yeah. He was definitely, he definitely, I could say definitively that he left his mark on, that's why you get into this outpoint, right? It wasn't just, oh, so sad. That's not the point. People are genuinely upset that have never met him, that spent time because they taught, he taught how to, how to think, how to question, how to, how to, you know, be a mensch. Yeah.

A person of class, a, a good family man. And just, you know, the whole, the whole, his whole way of being, listen, he has flaws. We know that, okay? We can talk about those. But his way of being and how he gave back his whole education of others, passing it along and creating, leaving things in a better way that he found them. Yes.

I think, I think was great. And it's an incredible lesson for all of us. And it's a time, if you are touched by this, if you are moved by this, this is coming from Rabbi Horowitz now. If you are. I'm sitting shiver with the rabbi. He should only know the shonda of all this. So the thing is that if we take this moment and absorb it as a learning moment

and a recognition of the fragility of life, I think it's extraordinarily important to what are we, what am I doing all this for? I'm screwing around with, I don't know, whatever you're doing, right? Well, I'm screwing around with this, wasting my time doing that. Who am I helping? What am I doing? Where is it going? Is it just, you know, is it mental masturbation or is it something that can actually help?

I know that for me, there was a few things I've done in my life that I'm like, okay, that was one of those points that I could say that that is something that can be passed on, that, you know, that future generations I can educate help and impart some information. Be a part of that. I think people should recognize that from John and take that as his parting gift. Oh, that's really good. That's rich. I love that. For me, it's also along those lines. The guy you think is the kook or the weirdo or the oddball is the guy you're going to learn the most from. Then the guy or gal you should pay attention to because these are the people that often, you know, they don't tow the line. They don't maybe fit in.

They might wear crox. I'm sorry, Speedos, whatever, whatever brand it was. It was crox as far as I'm concerned. And you guys invested in crocs too. that was crazy. Yeah, we had our issues. By the way, you want to know something interesting? I'll tell you something interesting.

Usually I'm kind of like, I don't talk a lot about my stuff, my things. He brought that all out of me. I was very comfortable talking about how all these issues that I had and he knew them all, right? We would talk about something like, oh, you're going to the airport. People are going to take off their shoes and walk through the line and you're going to freak out. I'm like, yes, that is true. Oh, we'd have rest. We talk about recipes.

Like we had this financial show. And all of something, like, can I tell me about this turkey that I made last night? Yeah. So it was great. It was very comfortable. And he was that way. It was like, you know, he would tell you like, like, what do you think of that? He'd be like, not so good.

Yeah. Okay. Oh, thanks. Okay. But move on. You know, it was just a loving person, wonderful person. I'm, I'm, I'm, it's devastating. And I know the, the, the, the, the, the hundreds of thousand people, millions of people that, that, that

listen to his cranky geeks and going back to tech TV and wired and the time he was on Leo DePort and all the stuff that he did. I mean, it's just, I mean, I have so much to thank you know, when when he was on Twitter and then, you know, and we started like, I see the show. And I let's do it right after Twitter on Sundays. Okay, we'll do it after Twitter. And we would always talk about like, do you think we've taken all of Leo's audience yet? He says, no, I got to go on a couple more times. Yeah. I think that's where most people say,

oh, no, I heard about No Agenda on Twitter. Oh, you heard about Twitter. He just got it. He understood that so well. Listen, I got people, I got people that are client stuff, and all of a sudden they're like, you know, they'll write me out of nowhere and they'll be like, ITM. I'm like, hey, I'm what?

Well, and that was, and I really love that, how our shows intersected. And also how John would compartmentalize. Like, no, I don't want to talk about it. We talked about it on Horowitz. And I'm sure he did. similar stuff with Or the little pick

The fights that he Oh you didn't listen this week Adam talked a lot about you I'm like oh yeah Well John and I were usually in cahoots about that Yeah yeah Yeah do that do that do that Say that

Listen what do you mean I'm listening to like 12 hours On a Sunday I don't hear them talking about me I don't know where is this So anyway Great stuff Great stuff

He was with me through three wives Well Yeah You got me beat on that Yes I remember how sad he was when when Tina and I got together. He was like, oh, I thought I could have lived through you vicariously with your bachelorhood. Oh, wow.

He was mad about it. Yeah. Yeah. So, anyway. I loved wine. Loved wine. Yes, he did. He had quite the palate.

I sent him a case of wine one year, a really fine case of wine. And then like three years later, I sent him another case of wine. I literally don't think he's ever drank anything. but he was waiting. He was waiting. I'm not sure what he was waiting for, but he was waiting. Yeah, he had a lot of wine.

And we had that one, let me just bring this other thing up. We had this, do you remember? You remember, I know you remember. I think we should talk about this. We had a really creepy moment

with John and his family. It was COVID. Oh, thanks, Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving. Yeah, I'll set the stage. Hey, we're going to do a Thanksgiving. It'll be the Horowitz and the Curries and the of orax. And we're like, okay, all right. And so, and they've set up a Zoom call. And it was the most

uncomfortable, weirdest thing. And I think was Mimi, was she, was she there? Was she in Washington? Yeah, it was like, John set the people up around the table and had like guns pointed out of them and said, don't move. And they were just sitting there. It was the weirdest thing. Well, we appreciate the family vibe, but this is like, what was this? Yeah, this is weird, man. Oh, should we only eat turkey now on the Zoom together? It's like, what are we doing?

That was, it was well-meant. I know it was well-manned. I know. Great stuff. Anyway. Well, you'll go on. You'll get something going. People should make sure, listen, I'm going to just do a promo for you and for me.

People should, if you haven't done so already, you need to get on the new agenda newsletter because you'll find out a lot of information about that. Of course, follow Adam Curry on Twitter. and also, seriously. I'm kidding. If you're listening and you're not doing that because the next generation of whatever's going to be is going to be there through those sources.

You don't want to miss it. That's right. Right. And go over to the page and plug too. Yes. Do the same thing. You are always so good at promoting no agenda. Yep.

No agenda Thursdays and Sundays, 2 p.m. Eastern Time. It's so good. Yeah. Hey, brother. Well, we've become friends throughout the years. So, you know, we will not lose contact with each other. Clearly.

Absolutely. Yeah. I mean, I'm not going to go on any of those cruise. with you guys. That's pretty much a no-go. I don't want norovirus. I can't believe you'd never had it. Not yet. But it's, I really appreciate you coming on to just share a little bit of our experience with John and we'll miss him.

And, you know, we'll... Well, big fan and first time caller, of course. Yes. Over here. Would you... Long-time listener at first-time caller. I'd like to deduce you, Andrew. You've got to deduce you. Finally. I don't think you were... Properly deduced. I was never.

Oh, you know what? I feel like the lightness. You feel fresh. Weight off my shoulders is gone. Thank you. All right, brother. We'll talk soon. All right.

I'll see you. Okay. Thanks. There you go. Andrew Horowitz. Appreciate him coming on. You had to remind me the Thanksgiving. Hey.

Oh, yeah. Andrew brought it up. Not me. I had nothing to do with it. I want to give Marty and Dana the opportunity to to give us their parting thoughts as we're about to go thank 750 people, because that is the number of people who have sent in notes and donations. So Marty, you want to kick it off here?

Yeah, I'd like to just wrap it up with this. After John had his heart surgery, we started talking a lot on the phone because I was set up to go into it too. and one month ago I had a pretty complex open heart and John went step by step through everything and kept my spirits up and he was a shining light in my life when things were pretty low and I will never ever forget that he's a wonderful part of my life God bless him thank you Marty that's beautiful thank you Dana um yeah um John I mean, it's funny because Adam, I told you this the other day, I believe, when I was speaking with Mimi and her family the other night. And with Alex, Alex brought up, and this is my wife saying this.

She's like, I don't understand why he took such a liking to you. I said it was, well, it's because we're both assholes. And Mimi chimed in and said, well, you're both very opinionated. And it made me like really think is John was very opinionated, but everybody's opinionated. But John, his opinion mattered. And you didn't have to agree with it. But he always followed it with a why or a history or story or experience he had. And so he backed up his opinion with data and with details.

And it wasn't just like he told you why he thought a certain. certain way. And everything he always said to me, it always resonated. And I didn't necessarily agree with it all. I mean, a lot of it, most of it. But even when I didn't, it still resonated. And he always made me think and made everybody think about what he said, no matter if it was, you know, like I said, if they agreed with it or not. But yeah, it's, I didn't think it would hit me as hard as it has. Yeah. but yeah i understand i think we all feel that way and it comes in waves and it's just the oddest thing

yeah so yeah and uh i'll just leave it on the funny thing one the last call i had with him before uh the call with him and mimi was uh was a was a butt dial he kept butt dialed And so finally I was like, I got to call him back and let him know what he's doing. And so I caught him in the answer that clearly he was busy doing something. He's like, yeah, yeah, well, what's up? I'm like, John, you keep butt dialing me. He's like, oh, sorry about that. And then just hung up.

But, uh, oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah, so sorry, I didn't realize I'd get so emotional, but. Well, you know, his butt had something to say to you. It's very understandable, Dana. And thank you for being such a good friend to him, Marty, as well. And we'll be seeing you out in Oakland, I think on August 8th. And look forward to raising a glass. That will be quite a pleasure to do that altogether.

Yes. All right. Indeed. Thank you. Thank you, Adam. No, thank you. Thank you, Dana. Thanks, Adam.

And, yeah, we'll all be talking somehow, somewhere. Good. Okay. I'm going to show my sublude by donating to no agenda. Imagine all the people who could do that. Oh, yeah, that'd be fab. Yeah, I just want to do a little troll count here. I think we had 3,629 people listening simultaneously.

Yeah, but you know what John would say. Yeah, he says. it used to be 4,000. It's low. We're down. We're down. We're down. Absolutely. And I want to encourage everybody to send me your favorite clips, anything that you like. We have Binget.io, which Sir DeAnonymous has put together. He's actually just like Void Zero.

Void Zero has been adding servers during the show. Everything was just so smoking hot. And Sir Deenonymous also had to. beef up his servers in order to handle the amount of clips that people were selecting. You can email those to me, Adamatcurry.com. You can email a link or email the actual file. And we'll be playing some of those on Sunday because one show is just not enough for John. And not enough for the amount of people who he touched and who sent in donations

and we said we would thank everybody who sent in 88 or above. We would read their note and, wow. I mean, I'm just blown away by the amount of people. And it is quite interesting that John planned this, I think, to be for show 1-888. Yes. Humanist numbers. It's beyond interesting.

Well, it also seems to have been 808 UTC. the time of death. Yeah. You would know that, J.C., wouldn't you? Yeah. He was with me. Yeah. Yeah.

I don't know if it's too painful to talk about, but you put it in the newsletter and, you know, that, would you mind just describing those last moments because it is so John? Well, Eric, with me, yeah. Eric wrote that the, the, that entry to the newsletter and the obits, and it was lovely. Well, John, you know, we had a normal dinner. He insisted I'd drink up some cognac. Why not? Oh, I've got to finish this bottle. And we, you know, he lectured me, you know, normal thing.

We had deep conversation like we always do, you know, all kinds of crazy stuff. And then I, you know, he was going to just watch TV like you like to do. And I went up to do some things, you know, upstairs. and then he calls me and he goes, hey, come on down here. So I came down and he said, I think my blood sugar is low. And I go, do you want me to call 911? Is this like, he goes, no, no, no. He goes, you know, hey, let me try some of that Mantuka honey.

Oh, the Manuka gold? The Manuka gold because we just finally opened the box. And I went, yeah, so he tries it. And then we're watching, I don't know, an N-CIS, which I am not a huge fan of him. And I went out of that, you know, that guy, Tim, he's, been on it forever and he's like, yeah, you know, you think his acting and you get better. And then, so I'm watching TV. I'm not paying a whole lot of attention. I'm kind of just waiting to see when he's going to want to go to bed because it's close to midnight. And he got really quiet,

like really quiet. And I looked over and he checked out. You know, he was just gone. So I, I, of course, panicked. You know, I tried to wake him up. It was just clear he wasn't there. Wow. So, you know, it was just, it was very peaceful. That's the thing that got me, you know. And it was also just impulsive.

Like, John just does stuff when he felt like doing it. So he just didn't clue me in. Typical. Yeah. And it was an interesting, you know, I mean, I miss him. I know. I usually don't tear up so much, but, no, it's just like the center of my world has just disappeared. Well, you have a very, very big family to support you.

And John and I had a very unique relationship. I mean, you know, one reason we didn't live in the same house is because he didn't like living with anybody. And because he drove me crazy. And it was much better than a murder conviction. So. And, you know, the house here's rocky. There's no way I could have dug a whole bit big enough. So we talked like, you know, 10 times a day.

He was always having me do projects. I mean, we really were kind of a unit. It's just that, you know, we needed the distance. I understand. No one understands what we did. So it was, yeah, I miss him. I know. We all do.

And the notes and the Facebook posts and the things I've been hearing, people are so lovely. and I really would like to thank all of them. So I think we can thank the ones that this, you know, we'll be probably talking until, what, 6 p.m. tonight. Might be going for a little bit. I will start us off with Dame Catherine Crypto Granny of Bangkok. And she sent us $5,000, which is helpful and very grateful for your generosity.

She says, I love John's stories and identified with many of the people. the early computer stories. He often said something that inspired me to write him about one of many life experiences. He told me I should title them random tales from a hippie chick. I am doing that now. I'll miss him, yet all he gave me is in my soul. I will smile whenever I think of John. I donated $5,000 in Bitcoin.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of no agenda to John's family. We all love you. You are never alone. To Adam, you have many years as you had many years as John's partner. please stay strong we need you my heart is weeping may his soul fly free dame katherine crypto granny of Bangkok and she ends with being rich is having enough to share with others suleman side mohammed thank you dame katherine so sir pursuit of peace and tranquility 3,333 hold on that's a rubbleizer India.

No worries. In the morning, John and Adam. He dates this July 13th, 2026. Please find and close my. catch-up donation to make me current through July 2026, accounting below. I apologize for falling behind on my value for value, but I've been incredibly busy, complicated with travel since last October, since I haven't missed an episode. Please hit me with a deduishing. You've been de-dushed. Hopefully, this gets me back on track. John, I'm glad you're back to full strength. I do need you guys

to call out some folks as douchebags that listen to the show but have not donated for too long. Number one, Sir, son of the Fort. I think that's a word of furt. It may be fart. Dushbag. He should know better. But he also has been too busy and needs a prompt. Two, my good friend across the river, she knows who she is.

Dushbag. And three, my oldest human resource, currently living in Mandami Land. and it needs the show to keep his amygdala right-sized. No jingles, no karma, just four more years, I wish. Please keep the best podcast in the universe going. Thank you, sincerely, Sir, Pursuit of Peace and Tranquility, in the lands of the Red Clay and the Cherry Trees.

The next is Byron McCool, Trustville, Alabama. $1,98, long-time listener, first-time caller. I am, John hated that. Yes. I am heartbroken. My first donation comes after John C. DeVorek has left the building. Godspeed, J.C.D. Byron McCool, Trustville, Alabama. Yes. And now I'm looking for the note. Let me see, because this is Julian. Julian Swan 1888 show number donation. Please see emails from Julian Swan at Proton.me sent to Adam Curry. Let me just check. Julian Swan. Okay. Yes, I have it here.

Thank you so much for everything you guys have done. You have changed the world immeasurably, teaching a perspective shift which leads to less stress, more joy and greater discernment. There's so much wisdom I've gotten from John. I still find myself repeating things he said over 10 to 15 years ago. Ideas just as sagely as they were when he first spoke them. You guys are my original mentors.

You gave me the courage to speak about a truth. that I had always kept in my heart that I didn't know how to express. You gave me the opportunity to impart that courage to others, a resolve to dig deeper into events and get the real truth behind the story. Now my wife and I lead a ministry which has changed thousands of lives. This would not have been possible with all the years I spent at Noah Jenna University under tenured professors, Curry and Dvorak. Oh, lovely. Thank you.

I'm sorry. I'm having trouble with the spreadsheet. What am I supposed to do, Jay? Because it's probably snapping all over the place. It is. Actually, I'm going to let Brennan read this one. I'm going to let Brennan read this one. All right. All right, from Allison Ostrander with 1-888.

She writes, In the morning, John and Adam, can't help but keep John's name in there, as I know he's here in spirit. My keeper. Sir Tony of Dimples was an early listener to No Agenda show, pre-episode 100 and hit me in the mouth very early on

when we were in college. Those that no agenda together stay together and year after year you all have been a constant in our lives. We have never missed an episode. We have inside family jokes around the show and our kids even sing along with all the jingles and little girl

yows. Along the way I've hit people in the mouth including my dad, Knight of the Cousaw River. pronounced coo like cuckoo clock and saw, and my cousin, and BFF Aaron. As I was close to my nighthood, I noticed the positive impact the show had on my dad and our conversation, so I decided to do instead gift the knighthood to my dad as a Christmas present and started the journey over to my own night here.

Here to return the gesture as an early birthday present to me, and in honor of John, John's favorite number, and for show 18888, My dad has gifted me $1,888 to donate to no agenda for JCD, and so I can obtain my knighthood. However, I can't join the table alone. With me already starting over, combined with his donation, it puts me over 2K, accounting below. So I would like to officially de-dush my cousin Aaron and bring her to the table with me as an instant night as well. You've been de-dushed. If you could title me Dame Allison of House Ostrich and my cousin Dame Aaron of the recess rally,

we would like sushi and classic JCD tip to the day wine at the round table. All of the thoughts and prayers to the Dvorak and Curry families, along with Andrew Horwitz and the rest of the No Agenda Gitmo Nation. I know many of us were shocked and saddened by the news, but we come together to celebrate his amazing life and all he has given in his time, talent, and treasure to this world. We will continue to listen on to no agenda

while keeping JCD alive through what this show has taught us to question and deconstruct what the media tries to feed us and to do it in a fun, entertaining way. Y'all have changed so many lives for the better and have become such a staple and constant in our lives that this loss is felt deeply by so many.

We cannot give enough love, gratitude, and thanks for all John and Adam do. Love and Light. Jingles John C. DeBorek Pet peeves of Day. Yes. Oh, three, four jigs. There's more. I got ants, mac and cheese, and John's spooky donation. Yes.

I got them all for you. John C. DeVorex pet peeve of day. I got ants. I got ants You slaves can get used to mac and cheese Macon cheese macaroni and cheddar melted together Mac and cheese mac and cheese mac and cheese You've got

Donate Karma Karma. Thank you, Allison. Sir Thomas of the Apocalypse, Kingsburg, California, show number donation. The 1-888. Please accept this donation along with my sincerest condolences to the family. My first introduction to John was his presence on tech TV back in the late 90s. I seemed to recall first listening to an episode of No Agenda after searching for what John was up to after cranky geeks.

But I think I didn't stick around until I typed in www.shon Hannity.com. into my address bar one day, only for the No Agenda podcast to come back into my life. Yeah, we had that domain for a long time. I had been hooked ever since. Thank you, John, for being such a wonderfully insightful and contrarian personality all these years. I truly believe my family and I are better people from listening to you. And next is Barron B.L. Gross Point Shores, Michigan. Show donation 1-888. Praying for everyone. RIP John, thank you for everything, sir. Much love to all of you, and I'm sorry for your loss.

He was a boss. He was indeed. Allie Jade. Wow, good to hear from Allie Jade, 152 and 62 cents. I say about 17 years ago I was brought to this podcast from Twit because of JCD. What I found was a podcast during the great jingle days of old, the burning of Club 33, the longest podcast episode, the bringing of the Bakelite phone, the announcer of the strippers, The bringer of wine tips, I could go on. This knighthood isn't his name.

Someone I always wanted to get a chance to meet, but as the events has changed that, but maybe in our Lord's embrace if I'm lucky. I may have retired from bringing news and inside info on a segment of people to the show, but I never left this show and its hosts. This donation is for JCD and his wonderful family. This Dame Hood is an honor of JCD, Dame Alley of the Buzz Kills. I only hope that when I get older to have honed the buzzkill skills he had. God bless you, all with strength and energy in this moment of need.

Sincerely, Ali Jade. All right. Sir C. Sharp of Dotnet. Yes. From Austin, Texas. With a $1,052.62 cents. I thought RIP JCD was just newsletter clickbait. Even reading his hardware gave out, I thought meant his Windows 10 PC died.

I've been listening for over. 14 years and I was a fan of JCD from the start, whether no agenda or DH unplugged or twid or, you know, rip JCD. My donations of $1,052.62, which is $1,000 in fees, brings my total contribution to $3,297.6, making me eligible for Barron. As Barron, please grant me the territory of South Austin. You got it. Sorry, I figured. loss. Sir C. Sharp of dot net, future baron of South Austin, J. Kouinan, Koneckini, Austin, Texas.

P.S. I'm still skeptical slash hoping that this is all just a donation scheme and JCD will be on the show tomorrow. I sure hope so. Yes, so many people have mentioned that. Wait, wait, was this? We didn't think of it. No, we never thought of that one. Boy, he missed it.

Cameron Simpson, Jacksonville, Florida, $1,000. A note with condolences and night name sent to Adam. Then I have it here. I'm so sorry to hear about John's passing. I really thought he was going to be around a while longer after that successful heart surgery. My deepest condolences to Me and the Dvorak clan and also to Adam and the Keeper. I will especially miss John's grousing about one thing or another on the show and his amusing anecdotes. John has made an impact on me and the way I view society and politics in a lot of

our world. I'm really going to miss that guy. I pray that God blesses all of you and gives you strength in this difficult time. I expect you may not be doing nightings during this sad show. So please just knight me a Sir Renegate of the Saint John's River whenever that is appropriate. We actually are going to do nightings today. We want to just do the full. I don't know if I can lift the sword, but okay. You can do it. Have Brennan help you. It'll be fine. Max, $1,000 to Adam, Mimi, and Family. My prayers are with you. I guess I took for granted that John would still be with us a little while longer, hence not donating as much as I should be. I miss John's poor pronunciation, whether on purpose or not, of names and places. Nighting, I'd like to be known as Sir Maximilist, protector of Cape Town's last remaining parking spot. I'd like to have the Emerald Isle, 30-year-old single-malt Irish whiskey and brieh.

Brei-flace. Thank you. Africanus for barbecue for the roundtable in honor of John. Yes, we have ordered as much as we could for today. There's Sir Ramsey Kane and Sir Pants. Ramsey Cain, who early on created CDs of the show. Oh, I remember that. Yes, I believe Sir Pants is his employer and his employer encouraged Sir Ramsey Cain.

to work on this during during work hours. And man, there's still thousands of no agenda CDs out there. 93566. He says, John, you will be missed.

Prayers for your soul and for your family, direct and extended. We love you, Sir Ramsey Kane and Sir Pants. All right. For Baron Ryan of Central Oregon and Dane Baroness of Bend

God rest his soul, love and heartfelt prayer from Mimi and their brood. Warmest regards. Commodore Sir Harrison of the rednecks. Okay, Jan, Sir Jan, the innkeeper and Sir Chief, Chi, Chiel. Phil.

John's not the only one who messes up names. $88.88. We'll send an email tomorrow, dear Adam and Mimi. What a loss. We are really warm regards. Fordritic. The fordritic. Very sad. Yes. Let me just see if I can if I can find his note real, real quick. feel Do I find it here? Hold on I may not be able to find this.

Jay's also looking. Yeah. We're all in the hunt. We are. We are. We will probably have to do a make-good for that. I'm sorry. I got it.

It is for 8008. It's 888. What's the note? Oh. Oh. Oh, yeah, I was asking. That was a question I asked. We will send an email tomorrow. Yes, okay.

Oh. We continue with Sir Kane Break. What is the amount here? I have a zero. It's 80088.88. Same as neighbors. Got it. To the family of John C. DeVorek, Adam Curry, and the Noah Gen. Nation, it was with heavy heart I learned and shared with my wife the news of the passing of John C. DeVorek. Dame Tracy of the Roman. and Wright and I are relative newcomers to the Noagena Nation, finding the show about a year before

Adam's first Joe Rogan appearance. I was wondering what became of JCD after a separation from Twit, like John I, too, had parted ways with Twit, yet felt this pull from the unique perspective of the no-nonsense contributor known as John C. Dvorak. It was but one show to realize this creature known as the No Agenda show was home. Dame Tracy and I have met wonderful people at Noagenda meetups, both in Louisiana and Texas, Johnson City, and Lukenbach. All thanks to the unique man who has an anecdotal story about every job known to man. After all, at some point in his life, he had that job. Dame Tracy and I did not have the honor to meet JCD in this world, but thanks to our Catholic

faith, we look forward to meeting the man who put the sea in Kermudgeon in the next. We will miss him on Sundays and Thursdays and are glad for the many shows in which we are able to share his time and talent. His treasure is his life. He shared with us by the grace of God, who obviously wanted to be the first to hear the next tip of the day. May God bless you. May God keep you and bless you, John C. DeVorek.

Sir Cain Break, Shauvin Alamon, St. George, Louisiana. So we have the note from the... Oh, you do? For Sir Jan, the innkeeper. Oh, yes, please. Can you read that? That'd be great. That's it. Dear Adam, what a tragedy. love to you and John's family. We will miss him dearly.

We are really... Warm regards and with love. Sir Jan the innkeeper. Yes, he is the ink. I'll do the next one. Two of our favorite, favorite people of the show who have been part of Noadj in the nation for many, many, many years.

Dame Astrid and Sir Mark, the Archduxist and Archduke of Japan and all the disputed islands than Japan sea. 888.88. Dear Mimi J and everyone in the wonderful JCD family and dear Adam, John was such a legendary man, full of wisdom, always sprinkled with an entertaining touch of mischief. We'll keep him close in our memories.

We always loved his encyclopedic command of the language, and even today we learned a new word that seemed so perfectly fitting for him. Ribald? Is it Ryebald? Is that the word? Yeah, Rhybald. Rhybald. bribe all this correct. Indeed. He was a chick magnet like no other.

Mimi, I'm so sorry for your loss. Thank you. Adam and Andrew, I'm sorry about your friend. Sir Doc Nelson. Casey Hamry, 350 and 93, ITM. I was stunned and sad this afternoon upon hearing the news of JCD's passing. Both he and Adam have had a great impact

on my life. I found no agenda from recommendation on Reddit back in 2016, if you can believe it. Thanks to that producer for leading me on a path out of my Austin, Texas, indoctrinated hell bubble. This donation serves as my third and final installment of 333.33 with hopes of a generous contribution from the jar of one penny to help me reach my Damehood. I request to be named Dame Dingbat of the Colorado River flood penny. I always laugh when John called some crazy woman a dingbat and would love to take the moniker and commemorate it with my seat at the round table.

By my side will be my Westinghouse pressure washer, one of my best purchases from the JCD tip of the day. For the sake of brevity, I will be satisfied with mutton and meat at the round table. I will move to a monthly donation now in hopes that Adam will continue the legacy of the best podcast in the universe. I raise a glass to JCD and his family. He will be missed. I have never felt such a loss for someone I never met. Blessings to all in the NA community, Casey Hamry, Dame Dingbat, Columbus, Texas. It's nice to know another woman appreciates a pressure washer.

we haven't heard from him in a while. So we need to give us jingle props. Shit. I don't know what that was. Hold on. Warkberg. 3593. JCD's yelling Nussbaum during the Ant Rant started my path to Grand Duke.

Fair winds and following seas, JCD. Sir Dr. Jeff, $350.93. I remember reading JCD's editorials and PC magazine. Then seeing him years later on Twit, remembering him taking a new Android phone that Leo had just received and changing the language to Korean. Yes. Rest easy in peace, my friend.

Godspeed, sir, Dr. Jeff. Kevin Armenta, 350. Hello, Adam. It is with heavy heart that I send this donation. I donated a couple times back in 2021, but stopped due to alcoholism. I quit my job and drank myself into psychosis in 2022. It was hard for me to listen to the show that year

because when you're in such a downward spiral, the news is just about what the most successful people in the world are doing, and it made me self-conscious. I am now in recovery, sober, a solid three years. Good job, brother. I don't hear voices in my head anymore. I have found God. I'll be praying for you, Adam and John's family. Your voices are combined with my memories throughout the last six years. I found you guys during COVID, and you both saved my life. I listened to you guys while I was drunk in the garage playing video games. I listened during my runs or workout sessions. You guys were the constant analysis I needed because no one else compares, and that's the truth.

Please light night me, Sir Cexicus, for the roundtable, can I please have Aga Chilli Civece and Cactus Cooler? I'm sure we can do that. Well, congratulations on three years. Stay sober. Alex, Santa Philip Filippo. Oh, yes, yes. San Felipe. Yes. There you go. Jacksonville, Florida. $343.75. My heart broke when I heard this. I will miss John.

I'm thankful to have been able to learn from him for years. His legacy lives on. Alex San Felipe. Yes. Yeah. I know him well. Nice guy. Sir Bing of the BMWs and Bulldogs in Bonnie Lake, Washington, 338, 88.

I am beside myself, Beyond Heart broken of your passing, John. Praying for the Dvorak family and for the curries. I know John and Adam were brothers and loved each other very much. God bless, love and light. Putting my phone in a drawer and driving my early 2000s luxury vehicle in your honor. I think we're all wearing our night rings this week. I love you, you lovable, ITM, you lovable curmudgeon.

Sending my love to everyone in Gitmonation, Baron Wisconsin, Millennial. Bob Johnson, 333.34. Just a simple thank you to John. Losing a loved one is never easy and nothing you can say closest to them will help them through this loss. John has been a part of my life from the early years of my own technology career. I will miss his insight, his laugh, and perspective he brought to this world.

Listening to No Agenda for the past 15 years has been with a few staples in my life over that time. Traveling to work, whether in a car or a plane or a train, I could always turn to no agenda to bring in a level of sanity in this crazy world. My deepest condolences to his family, you'll be missed, but certainly not forgotten. Jingle, give it up for Raven, some D-Doches here, Herb Myers, Mac Johnson, Mario Kulasic, and Ethan Katz, who is my favorite shape-shifting Jews. You've been deduced. And let me bring Raven up one more time. Straight from Reseda, here she is, Raven. Give it up. Ethan Katz. Just said $333.34. This actually completes my knighthood, but we can deal with that later.

Note for the show. I've been turning screwdrivers. and configuring networks since 1993. John's wit and deep understanding of the PC industry helped launch my own career. We are all, we are, all blessed to have known him and he will forever be my cranky geek to it heal. John was and will always be special to me.

Joseph Drates, $333.33. Thanks, John, for years of dedication, hard work, and amygdala, I can't say that word, shrinking. Jasmine McMahon. How do I, is it, Temecula. Temecula. Temecula. There we go.

I thought I had, I thought I had my pennies around here. Hold on a second. I'd have to search on the floor in this room for that. I thought I had a penny. No one has asked for those in a long time. Let me see, penny. Well, I have one for you. I'm sorry. I can't, I can't find it. Well, you know, they aren't print name anymore, so there's that. Yes.

33.33.33. We were so incredibly heartbroken to hear of John's passing. We've been fans of his since the 90s when Tech News was the only news we were keeping up on. Without a doubt the echo of his life will reverberate for generations to come. Please know we are

thinking of his wife, his family, and the entire No Agenda team as they deal with this enormous unexpected loss. And to John, thank you for your courage, sir, the Manuka Gold family. Excellent product. David Wee. Three Rivers, Michigan.

Scripture tells us pretty obviously that it is appointed to everyone wants to die, but not all deaths are equal in their impact or the void they leave for the living. Our prayers are with you as you attempt to fill the void that John will leave for the tens of thousands of us who truly receive value from his creativity, insights, experiences, tips, and faithful effort to produce this good show. A show that I think would qualify as the good fruit, Jesus said, would help you identify good trees and good men. I asked my eight sons, avid listeners, to give a one-word description of the value they received. Endless wisdom, simplification, affirmation, community, perspective, truth-telling, education, encouragement. There's good fruit there.

God bless you with comfort and courage from the lion family. That's beautiful. Jim Watts, Baron of Whistler, $333.33. I will miss grousing about John's Cinco de Mayo promotion. Condolences to Mimi, Adam, and our no agenda family. Jim Watts, Baron of Whistler. Sir Aaron, Knight of the Strawberry Fog, Watsonville, California, 3333. No note or need to read, but we will. Sending love to Adam and the Dvorak family, love you all. Thank you for your courage, sending prayers. Sir Aaron Knight of the strawberry fog in Watsonville, California. I'm going to, J.C. or Brennan gets to do this one. I can run out of air. Ash and Cat. Toronto, Ontario.

No. What? Toronto, Ontario, California. No. Canada. Canada. Not yet. Never mind. $333.33. Dear Adam and the No Agenda Nation, devastated to hear about John. I've been a regular listener since seeing you on the JRE during the lockdowns,

though I recognized you immediately from Headbanger's Ball, but ashamedfully hadn't donated until now. I'm long overdue for a deduishing. You've been deduished. No agenda quickly became my go-to for world events, except Africa, of course, keeping me company in the shower and on long, daily long dog walks. It was such a relief to finally have a show

where so many others saw through all of the fibs from the governments and the M5M without losing our minds. It wasn't long before John completely grew on me. At first, I thought he was a cranky old crumagine, but it turned out that cranky old curmudgeon was exactly what I needed. His signature, bull crap, and endless spirited bickering were the heart of the show. He never won over my girlfriend, despite her initial hesitation over the pro-Trump stances. She got hit in the mouth so hard by John than she beat me to donating. And now she wants to start a No Agenda meetup here in Toronto. Can't Kanakistan.

You two build something truly special. Sending strength to you and the whole No Agenda family. JCD will be deeply missed. May his soul rest in peace. Big love, Ash, and Kat. P.S. Guess you'll just have to train an AI JCD to drop a well-time. timed, well, that's bold crap every so often.

Juraj Kojak in Prague, 33.33.33 ITM. I was listening to the last no agenda on a bike and almost fell down laughing at one of John's stories. Thanks for the great work all those years. This one brings me to Knighthood. I would like to be known as Sir Juraj pronunciation guide. Read very close to get your eye. Jury. Oh, Jury.

Okay. Thanks, Sir Jury. Thank you, sir. Steve Bryson, $33.33. Grateful to have learned and laughed so much with someone I never met, but was anxious to hear from twice a week for so many years. Peace and love to John and family and to Adam as well. Steve Bryson, Utah.

SDG 333, IT Morning with a U. Thank you. I'll do a couple here. Spencer Ney 333 RIP will miss his voice and wisdom. Thank you both. Charles Abranovich, Plymouth, Minnesota, 33. Not enough carbon credits in the world could offset all the lawns. John helped us mow over the years.

Rest in peace. Kevin Lacombe, 33. John would want me to say this gets me to my next level after Nighthood, even though no one ever takes it. SLC, I haven't heard from her in a while. 3.20 and 80 cents. To the Devorak family, JCD was a treasure.

I'm so blessed to have found no agenda. I pray the God I serve may be a comfort to you in this difficult time. Jesus is more than able. Please reach out to him. Adam, parts of my brain are appropriately smaller due to no agenda. I'm able to give these sats because of no agenda. Numerous families at my church eat better beef and drink gigawatt coffee because of no agenda. Thank you.

I pray that our Lord gives you strength. As you mourn your close friend, did JCD leave California? Yeah, no. Prayers, follow by a F-35 goat scream. Hold on a second. I got to get my prayers. Yeah. And F-35.

Oh, my goodness. F-35. Yes, okay. You've got it. Prayers. I said, what in a well of this? There you go. Jennifer Blazer in Flossmoor, Illinois, 31585.

I was shocked and saddened to read your newsletter announcing the passing of John. Condolences to Adam and Mimi and his family. While no one can replace John, the world needs to continue to hear the analysis. I hope somehow it continues. RIPJCD. Sir James. I'll do a couple more. Okay, good.

Yeah, I'll do it up until the associates. These are all executive producers, of course. All right. Sir James, Vancouver, Washington, 304.15, which is 288 plus 88. The fees, hail to the cranky geek. He died doing what he loved, watching bad TV. Sir James of Southwest Washington. Lye and Sophie 30415, RAP, JCD, squeeze those chairs from wherever you are.

L.C. and Sophie. La Jolla Salt Corporation. There you are. La Jolla, California, 304.15. From our family here, La Jollaolla Salt, bedecks in black, flags at half, and drams at the ready. Godspeed DeVorak. Karma to Peter at the pearly gates for John is on your side now. May God comfort and bless you all. Amen. Dame Susan 301 and 30 cents, and she sent in a note. Hello, gentlemen. I was planning to send a patriotic 250 donation this week, but the sudden unexpected passing of Lady G, that's Lindsay Graham, made it obvious I need to increase the amount. Noah Jenna was the only podcast in my universe,

working hard to present and deconstruct this breaking news. Grateful for you continuing insights, all the best, Dame Susan of the Solner Wheel. And final executive producer, Art Kuna, Fort Thomas, Kentucky, 300. I was listening to the Sunday show when I received the news that John had passed away a total shock and bitter loss. He was the best and I learned much from him.

Art Kuna MD, an unknown knight. And from my friend Linda Lou Patkin. Yes. $288.88. Like everyone else I've talked to in the No Agenda family, I was deeply saddened to hear of John's passing. He touched us all with his sharp wit and astute wisdom, challenging us to think differently every week.

As an executive resume writer, I can't help but think John arrived in heaven with an extraordinary resume, one filled with a lifetime of curiosity, courage, humor, and a relentless pursuit of the truth. If there are interviews in heaven, I have no doubt he got the offer. Thank you, John. You will be deeply missed. Linda Liu, Duchess of Jobs and writer of winning resumes. Michael Cottrell, 2888. My deepest condolences to Mimi and Adam and all the family members. It's a loss of an institution on a scale that is unimaginable.

If my accounting is correct, I'm now a night with my donation gifts totaling ironically $1,08 Canadian. And we honor that. Congratulations to Adam his family with the birth of his granddaughter. A couple of episodes behind, feverishly trying to catch up. I asked to be knighted, low boy. Small anecdote, I was the producer who sent Adam the 18-pound box of pennies. Oh, that was such a nightmare. Adam thought it was a bomb and JCD wanted him to open it on air in case it was a bomb.

I forgot about that. That was great. I remember bringing those to the bank. That whole situation was a nightmare. Sorry, JCD would have been a poor exit strategy and messy to boots. RIP, JCD, ITM, hit him in the mouth, proud supporter of the No Agenda Show. Greg Lambert, Overland Park, Kansas, $288.33. John's passing is a real gut punch.

They broke the mold when they made him. RIP, JCD, gone but never forgotten. John and Dina Fuller, Colorado Springs, John Fuller of Focus on the Family. His wife has been just a constant, constant no agenda listener. 26684. We mourn with you in JCD's passing and make this contribution, 88.88 times three,

A most holy pairing of numbers totaling 26664 as a tribute to him to celebrate his life. John's life was remarkable, and his wit, insights, and humor made our lives better. John's competence in his one-of-a-kind journalism made others in the field seem so shallow. His 3 by 3 and 5-5, real, not fake like MSM, journalism, insights, unique technology, wonderfully amazing stories, laughter, self-deprecating humor, lovable curmudishness, tenacity, in his recent medical trials, love for his family, tip of the day life hacks, Costco wine tips, I will hoist a tribute with every remaining bottle of Costco Bordeaux.

Skepticism of many things, and most of all, his rapport and approachability with Adam for all these years leaves a huge hole in our hearts and lives. We have loved John from afar, and while we never met him, we shed some tears over his departure from this life. We will miss him sorely.

That said, we continue to pray for the Dvorak family and all who knew and loved John. looking at you Adam. For peace beyond understanding and for much grace in those days where JCD's absence is particularly felt. We pray especially for Mimi and the extended Dvorak family who have lost an anchor and yet will press ahead to honor John and his life. May God's grace be abundant, may you know his peace and joy, and while the pain will never go completely away,

may you see God's hand in all things great and small as you remember John, from John and Dina Fuller. Sir Infinitis with 263.22. What a shock. God bless Mimi and his family. Condolences to Adam and Andrew and to all the No Agenda Nation, as well as his longtime editorial fans. I'm going to kick my shoes off on today's flight, chromatosed, and fist some nuts. Sir Infanitis. Kurt Kiefer, Austin, Texas, $263.22. No note.

That means a double up, cromatose. for you, Kurt. You've got a double up karma. Mike Formanek, 263.22. Godspeed John,

praying for your family from Mike. John Whitten, 263.22. No note. A double up karma for you, sir. You've got

karma. I'll keep going for a bit here. Ed Coda, Summit, New Jersey, 263.22. I sent a memo donation, so hopefully this message will be reconciled.

donated enough to be a night, but that's not important to me. What is important is the best podcast in the universe and the joy it brings me consistently. R-I-P-J-CD. Thanks for the tips, my condolences to the Dvorak clan. Adam, I am praying for you. You've been given the gift of paring the light into darkness. May you continue to bear the church. The fire is alive. I'm just trying to get my head around the timing out of all. The birth of your grandchild and the death of so many life-filled moments shared. I bend my knee to you, my liege. carry no agenda show and so much more on ed coda summit new jersey ross ludicca ladd 26322 i tm from all the way down under no agenda has been familiar shoulder to lean on in the times of chaos

Commodore Crummy, El Cajon, California, 252.88. I have no words to express my feelings on the loss of JCD. Condolences and prayers for Mimi and

family as well as Adam from Commodore Crummy. I'm going to go down to I'm going to do the 250s here. Kevin Wedd, 250. I'm in shock and crushed as we all are. Followed John from the 90s Tech Days to his first day on no agenda, a huge part of my life.

Commodore Sir Baron John Helmer in Lenoxa, Kansas, 250. Dear Adam and DeVorek Clan, words cannot express our sadness at hearing of John's passing. Our deepest condolences, love and light, John from the Helmers, Commodore, Sir Baron, and John Helmer and family. Miss B. The Bag Lady, I presume that's 250. Dear Adam and Mimi, I started listening in March of 2020 and can honestly say that I've not missed an episode since. I've been meaning lately to make this donation that will make me a dame, and I regret it is under these circumstances. The podcasting world has lost a legend, and we have lost one half of our most beloved source of media deconstruction and entertainment. John had a breadth of knowledge and life experiences that most people could only hope to achieve in their wildest dreams.

I mourn remembering his wisdom, his analysis, and an endearingly, crumudgeonly sense of humor. May he rest in peace. For my dame name, I would like to be dame, 678. of the burning river.

Michael Kimmerly, 198, 89. That's 1888, 88, 88 and fees. Like all of you, I'm devastated by the news of John's passing. Sharing a part of someone's life twice a week as we did with John and Adam somehow makes them seem to be greater than the weakness that we all share. Even after his heart attack, John seemed to bounce back strong and ready to just keep going. John was more than just the No Agenda Show for me. He was a valuable source of information and inspiration going back almost 50 years. His columns, his musings on Substack, and his podcast.

were all invaluable for so many different reasons. He was a modern-day Renaissance man in the true sense of the word. I agree. My sincerest condolences to Mimi, John's family, Adam, and everyone else who his life was touched by JCD. I will pray for you all. John's legacy lives on in many, many ways, forever, ITM. Andrew Bentley, Olympia, Washington, 18888 with the fees. I salute JCD and want Adam, Mimi, and all the DeVorak clan to know that they have a lot of support

in the No Agenda community. forward to hearing Thursday show and I'll miss John's voice terribly. God bless all of you. Sir charismatic, 18888 with the fees. Adam and the Dvorak family, I can't express how hard this news hit me today and I can't even begin to imagine the emotions and sadness you all feel. John was the type of person I would have loved to have had a drink with and just talk. I've been listening to him for over 20 years. I wish I had a drink when we were talking. I've been listening to him for over 20 years and I'm not sure there's a very, voice that will fill the void, his absence will leave. I know it isn't much, but I tried to put a

collage together to honor him, hoping for a night name change from Sir Charismatic to Surveillance, creator of bonds, with love and thoughts, Chris Mitzloff, Sir Charismatic. Tion and Andrew from Amsterdam, the Netherlands, 188 with the fees. Dear John's family and Adam, please accept a donation of 198, which is 188, 88, 8,000 plus fees. We are both shocked and sat and to receive the news and we still can't believe what's happened as John and the show had a big impact on our lives the way we think about the world. Andrew in particular recounts. My first encounter with John was as a young boy growing up in South Africa, maybe around 30 years ago. I used to read PC magazine editions borrowed from the public library and despite reading so many,

the only thing I can remember for them was that I read an article written by him. I thought his last name was merely a pen name related to the keyboard layout and it was the first time I'd ever seen the word Kafkaesque used. If I recall correctly, he was complaining about something. I found it more real than anything else I'd read. Probably not coincidental. I later learned to appreciate Kafka's work as well. Maybe it has something to do with John's reference.

Later on, rediscovering him through the show was an unexpected delight. He touched many people's lives in positive ways, perhaps more than he realized. Thank you for everything and sending you all our strength and love during this sad and difficult time. Tion and Andrew. Okay, we'll take the next few so you can get some water. Thank you.

Well, you had it on. Yes, absolutely. Matthew Gebhardt. Thank you for all the entertainment news and wonderful memories. JCD had a positive impact on the world. He will be missed. To his family, thank you for sharing him with all of us. So Adam of the Coke Empire, 18888 and the Feeds.

He came, he saw, he kicked ass. Rest easy, friend. I've read JCD's work for decades and have enjoyed his dry, honest opinions from everything computer-based to writing about philosophical topics in the oasis. John's literary and TV show work spans my whole life. The Zephyr is waiting to take John on his last ride into the sunset. John's voice will remain amongst us forever, just like the mud flats outside his window. P.S. I'll be waiting for the Dana Brunetti biopic on JCD. Hopefully we get to see the real truth on what happened in that limousine ride with the fine sign back in 1980s.

ITM forever. PPS. Thanks for introducing me to Horowitz. I'm a client. Wow. William Fleming, 198, 89. We love you, John. The OG, cranky geese. and Buzz Kill extraordinaire, sending love and prayers to Mimi, their family, and Adam. I'll pick up a few here. Countess Dame Miaodison, who we know personally, and she says, no agenda family. This donation is honor of the legendary Buzzkill John C. DeVorek, 1888-plus fees. It's hard to even know what to say. My bucketless item of meeting JCD will sadly remain unfulfilled. Even though I've never met him, I love and adore him. His giggle, laugh always made me smile. I love the Zephy

reports and always caught me off guard in the best way when John made saucy jokes or dropped the elusive F-bomb. He could hardly ever pronounce meauterson and I wouldn't have it any other way. I absolutely loved hearing him butcher Dutch cities and I'll never forget how he made fun of my round table request

when I was named Pellegrino and purring kitties. Plenty of items weren't edible, John. I also one sent in a check with beagles on it, especially for John. He thought Adam said it had bagels. I had a nice, exasperated laugh at that one as well. I've included a photo taken at the Delray Beach meetup where I was blessed to meet

Adam and Tina for a second time and I think it shows my enthusiastic feelings for John. He will truly be missed by so many people. May he live on forever in our hearts and memories. Oh my God. Listen to that horn. Cheers, John. I just like to stop for one second here because I got an audio note from Sir Patrick, Duke of the South. Okay.

And I didn't know if he would be. in the donations or not. But he is by far the most well-traveled man in Knowage and the Nation has been to almost every single meetup. And you go to London. Oh, there's Patrick. Patrick. Patrick. Patrick. Oh, there's Patrick.

Oh, it doesn't matter where he would show up. And I really wanted to share his heartfelt audio note with everyone. John, I'll try to keep this note as short as possible because I know how you feel about show notes. You were an amazing man who lived an amazing life, did amazing things, had an amazing family, and you built with Adam the best podcast in the universe for real man. No joking. I was a fan of you in the 80s, and when I heard you had a podcast, I knew I wanted to hear it. When I heard that Adam was on there, I was even more excited because I had been reading your content for so many years

and building, as you were building your signature Buzzkill brand along with listening to Adam and doing his things on MTV. You will always be a technology legend with your thoughts on all the things over the years, even the mouse. I don't think you knew when you started No Agenda that you wouldn't just be talking to an acquaintance once a week, twice a week, but actually making a brother and growing your family with Adam. The No Agenda community that you two have built has changed the world in many ways that can never be quantified or typed in a note or books or books. It has become a force of nature. I think an important chapter of the show started to change when meetups were put together, and which those meetups impacted the people listening to a podcast in a way that has never been done before and never will be. be I wanted to make sure and call out Sir Daniel, the No Agenda meetup site for changing the no agenda

culture. And because of those meetups, people around the world have met and relationships and weddings and kids and things have all happened around the world because of those meetups. I was able to be blessed and able to hang out and get to hang out with you a couple times and get to go get you out of the house to go do a meetup at the Sacramento Train Museum and ride the Zephyr with you and the family, which will always be a core memory. That day, I got to sit back on the train and at the meetup and at the restaurant and just hear your stories and see you do your thing and see you talk to the community, them talk to you that you had built. It was amazing. Because of those meetups, I've been able to go to meetups all over the world and run into

Sir Mark and Dame Astrid in Japan and Duke Newsbaum and Kevin Dills and many other nights. and an uncountable amount of producers and even a couple douchebags too. You changed my life by getting me deeper into tech, which started my career, but you and Adam made a bigger impact on my critical thinking and being a crackpot, but also a buzzkill skeptic of things too. And we always need to remember to keep things simple, Occam's Razor style. You and Adam are the hardest working podcasters, building your lives, around the show, working holidays, and your dedication is unparalleled to any other show in the

multiverse. You always said that no one should ever agree to everything you say and shouldn't. And the people that I've met all over the world and seen and listened to are a testament of that is that we can come together with a common critical thinking goal. Who would have known a podcast that I listened to back on March 6th, 2008, called No Agenda with a name called Episode 20, called Never Say No to a Soldier, would have changed my life this much? While this note kind of went long, John, sorry about that. But lastly, we love you and your family and the family you have built all around the world. We will deeply miss you, but your Buzzkill and this community will live on forever. show 1888 what a show number thank you for everything that you've done sir patrick coble

And this is Hello Adam and Mimi. We're friends from the other end, from Rigo Park, Queens, New York to be specific. We're deeply saddened by John's untimely and far too young passing. We want to offer our heartfelt condolences to you and your family for your loss. We understand that loss may be greater than ours. Nonetheless, we feel a deep sense of mourning as to. We will always remember John for his knowledge of wine from Costco, vinegar, the wedding on that book, John. Ants, airplane peanuts, and of course, his relentless promotion of Too Many Eggs.com.

The anecdotes are countless, the stories endless, the disagreements with Adam, priceless. His contributions to twit were what got us admiring, John. Then onto DH Unplugged, get more of what we needed to hear. More John, always balancing out the discussion with Andrew Horowitz. Needless to say, we found our true joy in listening to John and Adam on the best podcast in the universe. The No Agenda Show. the attached photo was from what we consider one of the earliest, if not the very first, and a no agenda meetups in New York City in 2016 at Sparks Restaurant.

We told John that neither of us had Facebook accounts, and he immediately put his arm around us right away and congratulated us on the achievement. Maybe's expression behind us was priceless. John, we will miss you, rest in peace, Godspeed, love and light, Monica and Jerry Figuerski. Yes. Riley Murdoch, 19889. Rest in peace, your commentary will be missed. Jeremy Smith, Wausau, Wisconsin.

I've been listening to No agenda since I was 13 and religiously enjoyed the takes of John, keeping all my prayers. And thank you all for all that you two have provided over the years. Oh, my goodness. This one's... All reserted death. 194.07. I've been a producer since 2016. I can't begin to describe what the show John and Adam have meant to me. The two of you have kept me sane in years that tried to make me insane. Constant voices in my head, keeping me on the straight and narrow, not just with what is going on in the world, but somehow the chaos in my own life. I will grieve John's passing for a long time. Thank you for your courage forever. I made an 88.88 donation and later decided to up my peerage to Berenet with $184.30 as an extended tribute.

Sir, Tin Death, regretting this night name now, by the way. Now, Barretted. I'll pick this up with Craig Weinberg, who I know quite well, Millbank, South Dakota, 188, 89. This show, 1,888 is the episode and never really wanted to actually happen. words are hard to come by after hearing of John's passing. John is the reason I found no agenda from watching Twit in early 2009. He made the show worth watching. The timbre of his voice has been a constant in my life ever since. I lost my dad under very similar circumstances last fall,

so my heart especially goes out to everyone who loved him. The legacy John leaves behind is incredible. Mimi, I'm grateful to have gotten to know you, and I'm saddened John and I never found time to connect on the interview podcast. your family are in our prayers. Adam, what you and JCD built together is incredible. Your media deconstruction paired with John's wit, insight, an endless story created something we may not see again for a generation. John will be deeply missed and I'm grateful you'll carry on the show. Rest in peace, JCD. See you on the other side. Black Knight, Craig Weinberg.

Byrov Patel, 180, 88, 89. First of all, please deduce me. Dushed. Thank you, John and Adam, for all the years of lifting the veil of Maya of mainstream media and shrinking our migdalus. John C. DeVorek, we will surely miss you. Rest in peace, my friend. Please provide Jobs Karma for my smoking hot wife, Polly. Please follow her on Instagram at Posh with Polly. Okay. Did he say jobs karma? Yes. Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs. Let's vote for jobs. You got karma. Marina Kukes. 18888.

Rest in peace, JCD. May the God of all hope grant peace to your loved ones, friends, and the no agenda community. God will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain. For the old order of things has

passed away. Sir Hank, Duke of New York, 18888. Sorry for your loss. Michael Tasler, 188, 88. These are all 188.88. Something John would say, worst exit strategy ever. This was the worst way to exit.

We will all miss you, John. Joel Donaldson, been listening since the very beginning. JCD, you are one of a kind. Our prayers are with you, the Dvorak family, and the Currys. You'll be missed, but never forgotten. Michael Dennis, R. IP, JCD. Sir Austin, Baron of the Puget Sound. So sorry to hear the news about JCD as a young lad,

fresh out of college, and in IT in the late 80s. I kept up with tech with John's columns and info world and PC magazine. Rest in peace, John and Godspeed, Sir Austin, Baron of the Puget Sound. Matthew Janick, RIP to JCD, I send prayers to Mimi, Jay, and the rest of the family. This is truly the ultimate sad puppy in the newsletter. Peace to all in the evergreen words of Blockbuster.

And there's Dame Rita from Sparks, Nevada.

Thank you, John, for your expertise, stories, and insights. You are one of a kind and will be missed. Daniel Shore, San Diego, California. I read the news while listening to Sunday's show.

I have a pit in my stomach for a man I never met. My condolences to you all, he will be greatly missed, but he will be forever appreciated. Sir Le Ron. remembering when my giant computer shopper mag arrived and opening the John C. Dvorak column first. I've been listening to John for a long time and I'm in shock. Prayers to the Dvorak family and friends and the no agenda family from Sir Le Ron. Colin Cunningham, Cuna, Idaho, 1888, no note for double up.

You've got. Karma. Dame Danny and Sir Jeff, what an unbelievable loss. You are loved, John. Our hearts go out to you, Adam, Mimi. and the Dvorak clan from Dame Danny and Sir Jeff. Harold Hutton. We need a break.

Okay. Harold Hutton. Merrickville, Ontario, Canada. These are all 188s. Dear Adam, Mimi and the whole Devorak family, you're in my prayers. As is John. I've only known about the show for a year and deeply saddened that John has departed so soon.

Please deduce me. You've been deduced. I stepped on the no jingles. That's okay. No, just like John. No jingles, no karma, signed Harold. Matthew Savannah. Matthew.

Just one name. Savannah. It's like, it's like... Madonna. Madonna. There you go. Savannah, Georgia. 188.

RIP. RIP, RIP, John. Haven't listened in a while, but you help me stay sane through COVID and so many other times. Thomas Pequin. long live his memory and love of the paladromes. Brock Schreiber, 188 and 80 cents. From Brock and Dallas, this is first time donating.

I'm sad, it's after John's passing. Rest in peace, J.C.D. Sir Christopher, 188 and 80 cents. Love is lit. Sir Christopher Knight of Sipsy Valley. Joshua Hins, Elserito, California. 188 and 80 cents. John, you will be missed.

I'll keep going. Lindsay of the House Hunters, 188 and 80 cents. Adam and Mimi. My flight was already booked in my hotel reservations made to attend the Northern Silicon Valley, get John out of the house meet up next month. I had planned to casually walk up to John and say, somebody shut that baby up. My backup option in case that didn't fit the mood of the gathering was to announce that I've got ants. Since I was never guaranteed the buzzkill would show up to the meeting in the first place, I would now like to register my remarks in Memorium.

My sister Lauren and I plan to still attend the meetup, provided that it will still be happening. It's still happening. We might even pre-game at the hotels by fissing some nuts and pairing them with some JCD's famous Costco wine picks. There will never be another like our John C. All my love and condolences to Adam, Mimi and the kids and grandkids and the rest of the no agenda nation. Dame Lindsay of the

House Hunters. Marco D. Magnanimus. $188.80. cents. Marco D. Magnanimus, budget baron from show 1000. I love my truck and I love JCD. I will bring you with me every day in my thoughts. As a favor to John, donations with a short note and NJNK. Sir Connors of Broad... Oh, go ahead. I was going to steal it. Sir Connors of Broadwater County.

188.80 cents. Sir Connors of Broadwater County here. JCD was a great man. He will be missed. Patty K. Mack in St. Augustine, Florida. 188. I will miss John's unique sense of humor. His knowledge of so much gained over many decades

and especially his tip of the day. Rest in peace, John C. DeVorek. Patty K. Mack. made Augustine, Florida. Travis. Arizona. $188. You guys have brought so much value to me.

Regrettably, this is my first, but not last donation. Better late than never. Can I request a deduishing? You've been deduished. JCD is a treasure, who I was introduced to at the first, at first with cranky geats, geeks. I'm glad I found the No Agenda show afterward. All you, you all have something fresh and hard to come by with what you've created here.

I'm going to miss the chemistry of Adam and John's banter, but I'm sure John would insist the show must go on. Thank you. Travis from Arizona. Let me grab a couple here. Scott Clark, 187.71. I'm sorry for your loss and the loss of the No Agenda family. John will be missed. Rest in peace. I'm donating 187-71.

That's 8888 for myself and my girlfriend, Christy Murray, plus fees. Thanks for all of your news deconstruction from Scott Clark. Andy Hall, 187-19. Extremely saddened by the news of John's sudden passing. My heart goes out to the Dvorak family and fellow No Agenda listeners. Longtime listeners, sadly, this is my first donation, a 2888-JCD donation. Please deduce me in John's honor. You've been deduced.

Shouldn't have taken this long. My dad, aka. Pono Geek from the No Agenda artist community, hit me in the mouth repeatedly since episode one. It only took me 400 episodes to start listening full time, so I'm long overdue, and my value catch-up starts now. Families that listen to No Agenda together stay together. I'm committing myself to regular donations to keep the show going as John would want. I consider you both mentors and a hugely valuable part of my life.

I would not have made it through working in the Texas oil fields and numerous ventures without your collective clarity and voice of reason. I think of the heavy influence the two of you have had on my career and personal life, and I'm truly grateful and thankful for that. John will be dearly missed. I can almost hear him critiquing my poor grammar in this note as I write it. His unique perspective, energy, and financial analysis and sense of humor is something I really look forward to every week.

No jingles, no karma, just a double up karma for the Dvorak family. Humbly, Andy Hall, Pohnall, Maine. Oops, sorry about that. You've got. Karma. Sir Mike the fortunate from Fouquet, Fouquet, Verena, North Carolina, 17776. Freedom. Prayers for the Dvorak family, 8888 for myself and 8888 for Dame Kelly, the Resolute.

Godspeed, JCD from Sir Mike the fortunate. Adam, can we go back to 178, Andy Hall? Because he says if anyone wants to connect your swap JCD, no agenda, I didn't miss that. What is in there? www. LinkedIn.com slash in slash Andrew dash David dash hall slash. Oh, okay.

One of the few on LinkedIn that's not a robot. Yes, yes. Jeffrey Betancourt, 17377. Can't believe I'm being de-dush because of this. I guess you're going to be. You've been de-duished. A listener for years, never donated. I remember reading John and Mac user as a teen.

He's truly a legend and will be greatly missed. As a Scott Adams fan, this is almost too much to take, RIP. Sir Egghead, Dayton, Ohio, 155 won. 100 plus double nickels on the dime. JCD will be missed bigly. He's moved on to the better frequency, I think. Respectfully, the show should end now. I love my truck.

I don't think the show's going to end. It'll change. Something's going to change, for sure. it already has. Sir Sofa Kingpool, Roseville, California, 155. It was hard for me to believe this with the email and just searching online to make sure, praying for you Adam, Mimi, and the family. I love John's perspective, his laughter, mostly going to miss him, correcting everyone's mistakes in their notes they leave. After my first failed note, it encouraged me to reread my

notes several times for corrections to make sure I didn't let him down. He'll be truly missed, Sir Sofa Kingpool. Nick Feinstra in Borna, Overaisal, in the Netherlands, 155. Hello, John will be remembered and felt in years to come. He is watching from above and below, says Nick Feinstra, long time in the center, 19 years. That was so funny, Mimi, when I said to you that Tina and I, when we heard the news, that we immediately started praying for John to be saved and go to heaven. And you said, I don't think any of his friends will be there.

I know. That cracked me up. I'd be surprised. You know, I know he's hanging out with my mom at some bar somewhere pretty warm. Constantinos Pilidis 150. JCD, thank you for hitting me in the mouth. You entertained me, educated me, enlightened me, and most importantly, challenge me to think twice a week for so long. I cannot express my gratitude in what you've meant to me.

You're finally OTG 100%. Kathleen Anderson, Avon, Connecticut, 1443. God bless Mimi and the family. Adam from Minnesota Nuts, 1443. That's 13333 with PayPal fees. In honor of John's disdain for long notes, thanks, boys. John, you will be missed, but not forgotten. Adam from Minnesota nuts, or however you guys spell it.

Mikhail Nimoy, 13333. I'll keep it short as JCD would prefer, starting from the back cover of my first PC magazine at 15. DeVorak helped shape me who I am and the life I have today. Thank you for everything, John. I hope you enjoy the exit. Charles Wheeler. Go ahead.

We can jump in for a minute. You've been talking too long. JC, take this one. We're, but wait. 188. Charles Wheeler. No, no, I got it. Hey, hey, hey, I got it.

Charles Wheeler. 128, 888. Mimi, the Dvorak family in Adam, my heartfelt condolences on your loss. I found out about no agenda during the COVID era when I was very close to retiring from the Army, which were some wild times. Since then, the media, deconstruction, amygdala shrinkage, and value I have received have been invaluable. JCD will be sorely missed in whatever form the show takes.

Gitmo Nation, the tech world, and the podcast land have lost a founding father. On this sad day, I am a knight, but if no nightings are taking place, please save it for another time. If nightings and damings are happening, please knight me, Sir, Iron Tribute Rider of FEMA Regions 7, 5,67, and all surrounding FEMA regions of

Love from Sir Pete. Count of the Protectorate North Holland in Friesland. Ryan Miller, 123, 45 cents. I believe this was one of JCD's Fave donation numbers. Lots of emotions as I feel like I lost a friend. I love John's wit and his ability to make me laugh effortlessly.

He will still gripe in heaven, so I hope Jesus is ready. Fisting Nuts jingle. We can do with a fisting nuts. Sure. He loved it so much. Just go for it, John. Tell us your peeve about the fissing method of eating snacks on an airplane.

I see this on the airplane, and it's very annoying and i think it were a result in fights breaking out because it's just so annoying to watch guy takes his bag of peanuts and throws a pile of him into his palm of his hand and then he makes a fist around the nuts and then he shakes his fist to try to bring a nut to the little hole stop and then he throws a nut in his mouth from his fist from his fist then he does a it again. He shakes and throws and shakes and throws. It is annoying as hell to watch. Sir Denny Goad and Shannon Goad of Boc City, Iowa. 123.45 cents. Love and Light, JCD, Sir Denny Goad and Shannon Goad. Rin Bateman, Houston, Texas, 123, 45. I've listened to no agenda nearly nightly for close to

My donation was for 111.11. It was 117 and 0. and 4 cents after the fees. I know John would prefer most posters not leave a note, but I think his memory at least deserves a short one. Even from a more recent listener like my

The news of his passing was strange, and that it hit me as hard as if it was someone I spoke with every day in my real life. I think that speaks to his skills as an entertainer and a communicator. He'll be deeply missed here. Prayers to the Dvorax and Adam. Brad from Uvaldi. Kathleen Stokes. 114.69 cents.

Thank you, John. James Green. I want to read Elfland, but that's wrong. Fland? North Carolina. 108 prayers for the whole No Agenda family. There is no one like JCD. No one.

Alex from Anchorage, 106, 41 cents. Note, I encountered Twit as a high schooler in 2006. John's inside and humor made it memorable. In 2018, my kin hit me in the mouth, and now I'm a grateful producer. Much love to Mimi, the Dvorak Clan, and Adam. Thank you for your courage, Alex. And then, Dr. Nick. Dr. Nick.

Dr. Nick. From California, $106.41 cents. For the first, oh God, I'm sorry, for the first time I feel gutted by the passing of a person who I never met. While I had the casually bestowed honor of occasionally exchanging emails with John, somehow getting past his filters, I did not need the personal touches to love and cherish him. He shared his spirit in every utterance he voiced. Maybe some essence of that spirit, perhaps the contagiously grouseful cheer, lives on in the memories which, innumerable people have of his voice and in the feelings in our hearts when we hear this voice

stir from the most intimate recesses of our being, or when we likewise hear, I love my truck and I love what I do. I sympathize and share supportive, loving energy with everyone who knew John or who otherwise cares. I am sorry it took the devastating news for me to at last donate after five years of enjoying irrevocable value in the sonic frequencies expresses of a wonderful man, his unique friendship with another wonderful man, as well as their love for families, friends, the best podcast in the universe, and its idiosyncratically unique producers. Without John, all puppies are sad. However, all sad puppies may find solace in the eternal glory of the ephemeral star John C. DeVorek,

Along with... Karma. Quentin McCart. Sorry, Quentin. Tyler Johnston. My youth was filled with Watching Adam on Headbanger, ball and reading JCD articles in PC Mag.

We just landed in San Francisco to begin our son's journey at UCSF Children's Hospital. We sent a goodie box to JCD, which included a promo flyer my wife made for her music. Going through the contents of the box and looking at the flyer, he said she was a haughty. And boy, she needed and loved that. She's the one that called me crying and broke the news to me,

I was devastated to hear of JCD's passing, considering I had just finished listening to the Sunday show and had been thinking to myself how good he sounded despite his recent heart attack. I'm sorry for your loss and for my loss. Devorak's cremogenous wit and wisdom was invaluable to me and I often considered him to be an oracle of insight.

JCD was one of the only people I knew of who complained more than me and I loved him for it. I will miss his tips of the day and his pet peeves. Please accept this donation in remembrance of John C. DeVorak, podcasting legend, love and light, Sir Matt Wells, Black Knight of the Austin Petty Cabbies. retired. Amy Stubblefield with $100 in the fees, no note.

My dad was a grumpy old Marine, and J.C.D.'s bichiness reminded me of him. So I instantly became fond of him. I love the banter back and forth between Adam and John. I secretly think John brought up Adam's hair to get a small chuckle here and there. I say that would much love, Adam. Prayers to Mimi, J.C.J. and Adam and the Keeper.

In listening to future episodes, I will ask myself, W.W.J.D.D. What would John C. DeVoreg do? America's grandpa went home on Monday. This is the best podcast in the universe. Robert B. Zeggeru. I didn't have the honor to meet John, but it felt close. He felt close to them most friends. Rest in peace, dear friends, sincere condolences to the family.

Michael Grogan, Clarence Center, New York. I've been listening since the early 100s. Amazing that I've never met either of you, but I feel like I know both of you. John will be missed.

Thanks for all the laughs. Invaluble knowledge, immediate deconstruction. John will be sorely missed Keith Traffish from. Neskonset, New York. Michael Straub.

Praying for his friends and family, you will be missed JCD.

Alexander Marsh. John, thank you for your time, talent, and treasure. If life transcends death, then I will search for you there, James S.A. Corey, from Alex M. Alan Baumel. I'll keep it short. I've been a listener since episode 100, and now feels so bad I never donated. It just felt like two of you would always be there,

but here we are. You'll be missed JCD. You've been deduced. Scott A. Roycing with $100 in the fees, no note, so a double up karma for you. You've got Karma. Nicholas Kirkpatrick, Columbia, Illinois.

In loving memory of JCD, I've put off my first donation far too long. John's stories of past careers were always the best and I enjoyed connecting with him on LinkedIn of all places, where I provided a few paltry trips. You've been D. D. D. D. D. D. D. D. D. D. D. D. J. D. G. in Sharden, Ohio. I never met John. I feel I knew him from the countless articles and podcasts he did over the years when I read the newsletter. It hit like a hammer blow. I lost a man that would gladly call a friend and I'm lesser for it. Rest well, J.C.D.

William Gurkin, JCD will be missed in this household for sure. Bradley Taylor, life is a scam. The memory of Buzzkill will live forever. Robert Mussard, 100 plus fees, no notes. You've got.

know nothing about. God bless his family and Adam, love to you all. Patrick Maycomb. The sea stands for my condolences, rest in power. Sean Lynch, Brighton, Illinois. Thanks for their memories, JCD from Sean. Daniel Fife from New Bromfels, Texas. Time for a deduished.

You've been deduished. This hit me hard twice a week since COVID times. Sincere prayers to John's family and friends and Adam, love to you all. Michael Hall. I've been an anonymous producer of no agenda for about two years because for me being a part of Gitmo Nation wasn't about me, but about supporting the media deconstruction that JCD and Adam pioneered before I knew they were even doing it.

For that, I am grateful. Condolences to Mimi, the family, as well as Adam and Tina, RIPJCD. Being Orthodox Christian, I pray for the dead, so I've said a prayer for the soul of John C. DeVorek, and will do so again when entering church on Sunday, Michael Hall. Michael Lewis just says thank you. Annie from Bury in Washington. I really love the show and it's highlight of my week,

and I will really miss Buzzkill and his contrarian attitude and almost everything. He's probably one of the most relatable podcasters ever, with much respect and love, Annie of Bury and Washington. Luca Rajavich, my condolences to the family and to you, Adam, JCD, will be dearly missed. Gareth from Bournemouth in the UK and the south there, no jingles, no karma. Matt McCoy,

I was a sophomore in college writing a paper on my brand new Bondi Blue Eye Book. I just spent $1,200 on it. I love that machine. Silicon Spin was on in the background. They were talking about the Ibook, so it caught my attention. John said, why would anyone buy a laptop shaped like a toilet seat? I laughed, but I was a little offended, but I laughed. John was the reason I started listening to No Agenda.

He was the reason I listened to Twit. My wife thought he was hilarious. My kids have grown up listening to him. John is a legend, and me and my family will miss him. May the Lord hold you in his eternal care, John, Matthew McCoy. Rafael Negrohn, from tech TV to COVID and beyond, John was a North Star keeping all of us grounded in reality. He was the grandfather, many of us did not have. Every tip he gave us from grinding up ants to the Chinese burn cream.

Hey, that was my tip. We took it as serious as cancer. From the Nogran family in Satin Island, we thank you, John Devorak for your life, and we send you our congratulations, our contolences to the Devorak clan. I'm sorry. Hang in there, Curry. congratulations. Not really. Time for me to rest.

Yeah, okay. Renan. Maximized. I will even miss the volume of your speakers being just a little too high. RIPJCD, you are a legend. Sir Toast with 104-29, that's the end of the 10534s. Hi, John, there is no value enough to fill the void of missing you. my biggest regret was not keeping a local meetup and meeting you such a life rest in peace jcd thank you sir toast layaway night dame that weird poet um with 104 and 17 john i owe you a lunch and i'm not letting you take that to the grave so i'm making this donation all things considered i would have rather that we had lunch than have a reason to write this note wishing you one wild next adventure.

JCD has been constant in my life through his writings, cranky geeks, twit, and of course the beat best podcast in the universe, No Agenda. My wife, Dame, not a serial killer, Kate, and I have grown together by listening to the perfect balance of crackpot and Buzzkill O'Pine on topics for literally thousands of hours. To say we appreciate and value all that No Agenda's brought us would be a vast understatement.

So I'll play. Ah, that's what I was just thinking. Yep. Thanks to you, Ed. Is this Crownhog Day 2? We are watching that was Attorney General Eric Holder. ABDs about some Republicans at home are already beating the drums of war. Today, the Pentecon refuted that claim.

And he said the American people do not want him to quote, dwindling, they do not want him dwindling his thumbs. You can get a gig as a contortionist. Intravenous fluids and pills coated with gelatin. We don't

I want to wax poetic on all the great things he has given us, given me. I want things to be the way they were, but I am old now and must face the loss ahead on. My prayer is thoughts and deepest condolences

to the Vorak and Curry clans, my hopes and best wishes to all the no agenda nation. Godspeed John Dvorak, the gray curtain of this world has rolled back and all its turns to silver glass, walk along the white shores to a far green country under a swift sunrise. Drink a glass for us. We will all see you again. Sir Knuckleberry, Atlanta, Georgia. Cuncleberry.

JCD will be missed immensely. Thoughts and prayers to all the new all that knew and loved him. Sir knuckleberry. Cuncleberry. So Bovino of East Berlin, Pennsylvania. Love and light

to John's family and entire no agenda nation. RIP JCD. Thank you for your courage, Sir Bovano. Jill Mariani, Santa Clara, California, no note. Double up karma. You've got. Karma.

Christian Walker, I write this with a heavy heart. John will be dearly missed. Throughout the years, Buzz Kill would inform, entertain, and yes, sometimes annoy us. But that is who he was. a teacher of source, a storyteller, wanting to impart his vision and wisdom to whomever wanted to listen, and occasionally, well often, gripe about the world, as we all do, of course. The way he wrote his essays and columns was catching to the eye, always turning the gears of my mind about whatever his subject of choice was.

It always gave me a chuckle to know Devorak used a quirky keyboard to type on. That joke will never get old to me. Mimi, family, Adam, and to the rest of the No Agenda family, we lost a good one. But the torch will be carried on in one form or another. Take as much time as you need, grieve in your own way. Then be back, bright-eyed and quick-witted. John wanted us to pay attention to how things are and whatever they could be. Cherish those you have while they're here on this earth.

For you don't know when the Lord calls our name to come home. May God bless the Dvorax, John's closest friends, and the many people who will miss him with an abundance of his grace. Okay, J.C., you're next. Sir Timothy of No Fix Title, Outen, Michigan. $100. Dear Adam and Meamy and Family, I want to share my memory of John from when he visited Michigan for a speaking engagement and asked to meet any local producers. So some of us met him at an Ann Arbor Brewing Company on Monday, May 19th. 2014. It's the attached photo of us, him that night. Jeff Lundberg created a list

serve to stay in touch with John and each of us that week. And John arranged a second meetup on Thursday, May 22nd at Ironwood Grill and then the box bar in Plymouth. I arrived late to the box bar after my friend Ryan let me drive his Lotus X-Eggsage. I'm not. I'm not good with word. At a car club event. And John and I talked about that and cars in general for almost an hour at an outside table after many had gone home. John loved cars and I cherished that time chatting with him on that clear spring night. A month or so afterward, he nicknamed us No Agenda Local. One, because he kept meeting thanks to Jeff's list serve that made it easy to keep it going.

I want to thank John for bringing us all together and I hope that Jeff, Lisa, Alicia, Scott, Brian, and Aaron, and others from those initial two meetups are all doing well. Bless you, Adam and the Dvorac family in this time of grief. I close with John's email message to the list as he was setting up. our Thursday night meetup. It made me laugh. Then, it still does now. We had a meeting yesterday at ABC in Ann Arbor. It was great, although I'll be confusing names for a while.

The day I'm headed the Detroit Institute of Arts Museum. Use this mailing list. I think we can do an expanded meetup from the new folks on the list, perhaps Thursday night. There are now enough people to make a football team. Joshua Johnson, $100. Rest in peace, Buzzkill. You will be missed. Thank you for your courage, prayers for all.

appreciated as witty, sometimes snide remarks and dry humor. Felt like a douchebag for not donating for the last five years. This donation is for John. You've been deduced. Bobby and Sarah Hiney. Listening to John was like having a wise grandfather around to gain perspective on many different topics. We will miss as authenticity, intelligent takes,

witty humor, and endearing laugh. Thank you for everything, JCD, Bobby and Sarah Hine. Chris Talia. I'm going to miss you, John. Don't stop Adam. We're depending on you to bear the torch.

He had the sharpest wit of any journalist, not just in technology, but all of journalism. He taught me how to view things with a critical eye and will be sorely missed. Alex from Bluegrass. Dear John, Adam, family, and friends. I first saw John as the host of Silicon Spin, where he came off as a serious straight-laced tech journalist. On cranky geeks, twit and the beloved tech grouch, his personality that we love him for shined. I got to see John in person doing Twitter live at the Brickhouse in 2012, which was a dream

come true for me as a tech journalist and is a memory I will always cherish. It was one of his Twitter appearances that led me to no agenda sometime around 2010, and since 2016, I have not missed an episode with John and Adam becoming a mainstay in my car and my headphones. The few times I felt I could add some expertise to a show topic, I emailed John, to my surprise, I would actually get a response. The most recent one had to do with thoroughbred racing and industry I've worked in for decades. His response simply said, well, this was a bit much. I will never know if he was talking about the horse or the length of my note.

Trust me, length of your note. Hopefully this note didn't blow out your spreadsheet. John will be greatly missed to his friends and family. Thank you for sharing such a great man with the world, Alex from Bluegrass. Sir Beboop and Son, 9888, in honor to a great man, no jingle. no karma. Sean Hines, 96. John has been a voice of reason for me for over 10 years of listening to the show. I will always be grateful for his insights, humor, sensibility, and crankiness when it was most needed. My heart goes out to the Dvorak family and all of knowage and the nation.

Charles Tracy, 9482, no note. You've got. Number Lemon Heart of the Great White North 9377 You will be missed, JCD and your stories and authentic sense of humor Much love to your family and friends

from Lemonhart of the Great White North Stephen Rathgen 9377 I've been listening since 2021 The chemistry you and John shared on the best podcast The universe can never be matched His dry wit,

deep technology knowledge and Silicon Valley stories were true gems. Thank you for everything. RIP JCD, ITM. John Carabas, 9375. John, you have created something timeless, this show. I often find myself listening to episodes from years ago to better reflect on major events that occurred.

I will keep listening. I will never understate the impact this show had in my life, RIPJCD. Aziz Chowdry, 9365. Growing up Muslim after 9-11, ZDTV and Tech TV gave comfort and a window into a magical world of computing. I hope to join someday. John C. DeVorik was part of that refuge. I'm grateful his voice helped shape my childhood even before I understood it all.

Kyle Reinhold, 9365. JCD and Adam have taught me so much over the past 11 years of listening. Devastating news today. I can still hear JCD saying, Woman, in that old curmudgeony way, always cracks me up. praying for John Mimi DeVorek family and Adam and Co. Kevin Feffer, 9365. Somber greetings, Adam, Mimi, and the No-Agen-F family.

This certainly wasn't the way I wanted to be deduished, but please do so. You've been deduished. On the advice of amazing friends and musicians, Tom Bennett and Brett Norton, I checked out the No-A-Gentha in the show in mid-2020 during all of the COVID madness. I can truly say it changed my life. How can someone you don't even know be a father figure, my wife asked. His wisdom, wit, demeanor, and insight very much reminds me of my own father of the same age. John C. Dvorak is a true legend.

Few others can say the same. I'm grateful for all he gave to us. The deepest of condolences and prayers to the Dvorak and entire no agenda family. Rest in peace, John C. Dvorak. May angels lead you. Robert Charles and Baronettes is Christina Pearl. Ah, so our flight attendant. 9365. Thank you to the Dvorak family for all you have done for no agenda nation and mostly for sharing JCD.

He will be sorely missed. Eternal rest grant unto him and let perpetual light shine upon him, Sir Robert Charles and Baronettus Christina Pearl. Brian Rogers, 9365. In honor of a guy I felt I knew personally for the past six years, there's no evidence. I do believe. 2004 Lexus, Sumo, New Tang Dynasty, Korean phone settings, Kirkland Wine, Zephyr report, I love my truck and I love what I do. RIP, JCD. Carson and Tom Bush from Sebring, Florida, 9365. This is from me and my dad, Tom, who hit me in the mouth. We enjoyed the show together for the past nine years. The news of John's passing made us feel like we've been punch in the chest.

condolences to the Dvorak and Curry families. Thank you for your courage in this sad time. Jeremy McMarton, 9365. John, Adam, and Mimi. I'm shocked and sadden to hear the news of John's passing. Word broke to me through the same person that originally hit me in the mouth with this great show, Bob. The more I listened and learn about John and his life experience,

especially in the tech world, the more the show meant to me. He brought serious tech street cred along with him, and I loved hearing all of his stories, especially the ones that come out of the woodwork and surprise Adam. As someone who works on the implementation side of tech, at least in my niche industry, I really enjoy the analysis that John brought to the table

with respect to tech history and how it relates to my day-to-day. I also really love listening to him compliment Adam on his many thesis. Pretty sure he would challenge or validate my use of the word thesis as the plural of thesis if he were reading this. Well, maybe. But I'm pretty sure thesis is a thing. I will miss hearing him saying, it's no good. And that's bull crap.

I really hope you can continue to honor the three-by-three in memory of JCD. It's a great segment. I'll continue to listen to the show because it's the best damn podcast in the universe. And thank you, John, for making it so. Rest in peace and my thoughts and prayers go out to you, Adam and Mimi, Jer-Bear from London, Ontario. Brian, 9365. John was larger than life and a force of nature.

I got to meet him in the early 1980s and spent many Comdeck shows with him. We remained friends over the decades and got to speak to him about a week and a half ago. His passing leaves a hole in the universe, but heaven is a new place now. Rest in peace, my good friend, Brian. Alan Huffman, 9364. There is no evidence that people want to have a world without John C. Dvorak in it. Philip Bushy Hertfordshire in Great Britain, 9364. 64 R. IP, John Philip.

Sir 11.921, 93, these are all 9364s. I am speechless and can offer nothing but my prayers for all of you with this meager donation. Blessings from Sir 11, 921. John Feldman from Chico, California, and Trent Bell, no notes. So you get a double up karma for both. You've got. Karma.

and I'm forever grateful, praying for the DeVorek family, the Curry family, and all of Knowage and the Nation. Sir Tom and Dame Rhonda from Athens, Alabama. Godspeed, hail, and farewell. JCD, you will be missed to all of no agenda in the nation more than we can even imagine, Sir Tom and Dame Ronda in Alabama. Jody White. JCD, thank you for changing the way I look at current events and government and life. You and Adam have been part of my life now for a while.

I only wish I'd found you sooner. Prayers for all of who loved you. She's the pickle princess in Louisiana. J.C., your turn. All right. Let me get over here. Oh, so 93-64 is 88. 88, I guess, with fees. Yeah, but don't worry about it. It's just, they're all the same.

Yeah, we just did her. The next, Sir Vince. Servants. Okay. All right. Sir Vince. Night of the Pacific Northwest. So unbelievably sad to hear, what a loss. We'll miss you, JCD. Keep giving them hell from heaven. Sir Vince Night of the Pacific Northwest.

Surrender. R-A-P. J-C-D. We'll definitely be missed, sir, render. Raymond Bell. Rest in peace. J-C.D. you'll be dearly missed and never forgotten. Nathan Swim, Central Point, Oregon. No note.

You've got... Karma. Ryan Kinnett. Going to miss you, JCD, B.Y, Fy C. Andrew McFadden. When I was 14, I would play Castle Wolfenstein to my uncle's office at night, and they had a subscription to Byte magazine. I would flip through the pages

and only read John's three pages of computer industry jokes. We'll miss you, John. Brain fusion. An Amsterdam. Yes, correct. Speechless, strength for Mimi, family, and friends. I'll miss John and... I will remember John to my prayers.

O.G. Red Knight, Burn, Indian. OG Red Knight here. JCD on Twitter is what brought me to No Agenda because he was always my favorite contributor and wanted more of him. 280 characters isn't enough to say how much JCD and No Agenda mean to me, but you will be missed. Jason Fabic.

I am very shocked by the sudden news of John's passing. John and I had exchanged a few emails, and he gave me encouragement in starting up my own company and persuading my dream of owning my creations. I meant to send him a box full of my books, but being busy, I never was able to get around to it. I think he would have really enjoyed the books and would have gotten a kick out of them.

Even though I never met him in person, I felt like I knew him so well from just the show. He was one of my heroes, and I'll miss him and his kind grouchiness. God bless him, Mimi and the Family, and heart goes out to Adam as well as the loss of his dear friend. Thank you and God bless. Todd, Drinth. In the morning, I've been a producer since at least 2010,

but I began dating my now wife during COVID. I hit her in the mouth. We were one of the many examples of couples. that no agenda, together, stay together. We knew that we had to make a donation in honor of John and in support of the show. Our hearts broke when we heard the news today. After making us laugh for years, John finally made us cry. Our hearts and prayers go out to meet me and the family.

May the Holy Spirit comfort with peace that surpasses all our understanding. May you find joy in a life well lived and a tremendous impact John made on your lives and lives of so many others. It also seemed appropriate to claim our knight and damehood after being producers for years. I'd like to be Sir Todd of the Dale and she shall be Dame Carly of the Chicago skyline. We trust the round table is full of wine, food, spirit, and champagne

to toast to a good man and a life well-lived. Thank you for your courage, Knight Todd and Dame Carly, Grand Rapids, Michigan. Machine print shop, Fista, California. No need to... No need to read my note. Okay, well. All right. Christopher Gray.

And Bryant-Keefe, no notes. You've got... Double-up. karma. Eric, Winter Springs, Florida. First time donations, so I need to be deduished. You've been deduished. As a firm gen Xer, I spent a lot of my youth on MTV and grew up with Adam Curry. As I was an engineer by education and in college during the dawn of the internet in 1991, I was building my own PCs and starting to start reading PC magazine and always enjoyed John C. DeBarck's two columns and went out of my way to read them. I found no agenda several years ago after Adam's appearance was on Joe Rogan.

And I found it was John, he was partnered with, I had to tune in. The media deconstruction you do biweekly helped confirm what I had what I already suspected since the pulse shooting in Orlando in 2015. I just moved to the area from being a lifelong resident in the New York city metro and was amazed that with the national news media was pushing, which was contrary to what local media was saying, who were interviewing people who survived the shooting. It was very clear the national media is manipulating the story. Growing up in the number one media market, you're at the epicenter of the narrative, even on local news. I have been listening since the 1600s episodes, and you are a regular podcast when I travel to my clients as an insurance agent.

I'm sitting in Newark Airport on a delayed flight back home to Florida after visiting a family in New York City and heard the news. I felt I had to get finely deduced and donate in honor of John for decades of his work in the tech industry, writing, and the No Agenda Show. Thank you, John. May you rest in peace, and I pray for Mimi. and extended family, and finally to John, the show, and no agenda nation, may God accept his soul into his glory. Eric from Seminole County, Florida,

deduishing, double up karma, and you've got prayers, jingles. Wait, I'm going to give him a prayer jingle. Got that. So many prayers today. I love seeing that. Here we go. You've got prayers.

Anonymous. My first real exposure to JCD was cranky geeks all those years ago. No one could have come up with a more appropriate name for that show and its host. John gave me countless hours of entertainment over the years and the podcasting world and the world in general would

We're getting punchy. Let's face it. Sir Dave and Dame's Melody and Isabella Fugazotto. The Fugosotos, the Duke of America's Heartland, the Arabian Peninsula, and America's Heartland. There we go. That is Gladstone, Montana. Requiscat and Passet.

My condolences go out to the family and Adam and I'll miss his humor. 88 and 88 and 4 and 76 fees. This sucks. God bless you all. Jonathan Callahan. Adam, I wanted to share what John and no agenda have meant to me. I first knew John from Twit as the cranky geek who brought reality to an otherwise over-enthusiastic crew of tech foamers. I had followed Tech TV to Twit, but through John I found no agenda.

That is where I discovered Gitmo Nation was my people, and that really was the best podcast in the universe. For at least 16 years, the crackpot and Buzzkill have been part of my Thursday and Sunday routine. The show grew with me from college and adulthood, even though I never met John. I came to feel like I knew him. He became an important part of my life and a mentor who taught me to question the narrative, think critically, and always look for the scam. That stayed with me as they built a career in technology. John taught me not to confuse enthusiasm with evidence, authority with truth,

or a polished story with reality. A few months ago, I was in northern Silicon Valley during a meetup. Could not make it. I thought of John as I drove past the mudflats. Yep, still there. I wish I had made it. With much love to John, his family, his friends, you and all of Gitmo Nation, Thank you for everything you and John created in the morning.

John. Michael Wadinger. No note. Sir Kit Board. R-IP, J-CD. You'll be missed. Sir Kit Board. John Giles, Traveler's Rest, South Carolina.

Thank you for giving us all you had, J-C-D. Judson McCown. I love listening to John and reading his columns. He reminded me so much of my grandfather with his wit and humor and to his family and Adam. I give you my condolences, and may he rest in peace. This is one hell of an exit strategy, John. The anonymous controller and his wife.

Ah, yes. JCD, you'll be missed dearly, and the show won't be the same without you. We'll miss your giggle and your growly voice, rest in peace with our Lord and Savior, the anonymous controller and his wife. Stephen Powers. Love listening to John from the Twitch days in Early No Agenda. So sad to hear he passed. Jeremy Radwan from Seminole, Florida.

RIP, JCD, from PCMag. Twit, cranky geeks, no agenda, and D.H. Unplugged. Your wit and sharp commentary, and lately, wine recommendations and tips. I've been a constant in my life and career in tech. Thanks for everything. You'll be missed. T.J. Calabrizi. New Baltimore, Michigan. Thanks for all you did, JCD, and thanks for what Adam will carry onward. Godspeed and God bless. Teresa in Sonomish, Washington. Rest in peace, John, you'll be missed. Sir, Darius Unity.

He's the only boss man who I know of that was so confounded by my oft-becklear syntax to refer to me as, your next potis, ladies and gents. That was on my 420-2020-2-2020-born day, when I hosted a meet-up on the National Mall, D.C., whilst being knighted with my 420 USD donation. The moment lives rent-free in my head, thankfully, gratefully appreciatively,

just like when he called me a good man. Live on the air relatively recently. Also, I'd give 100x right now, if I could, sincerest and un-utmost condolences, a heart-acheingly and heartwarmingingly, heartfelt, ITM, T-Y-F-Y-C-L-Y-M-I, get-M-Nation, and especially to Mr. J-C-D, salute.

Thank you for the great drive time listening. Also, screw Leo de Port. Dumb fan point. L2 Hawk. Sir Chris Cowan, Viscount of North Austin. Dear Adam, Mimi, Buzzkill Jr., Jay, and the rest of the DeVorek family. I am heartbroken. I am 64 years old and still employed as a dude named Ben.

I have followed John his entire career, PCMag, Tech TV, Twit, Tranky Geek, and finally No Agenda. As a regular DSC listener, I started listening to No Agenda, starting with, the first episode and have listened to all 187 episodes. Wow. I never had the opportunity to meet John, but feel like I have known him my whole life. I have just started making plans for the semi-annual Fredericksburg meetup, which is the same week as my birthday. I'd hope that maybe one day John would make it to Texas for one of the meetups. Jenei Irvin.

RIP to a true legend. The Buzzkill, JCD, don't have much to say other than the rest. You've kept, other than rest easy. You've kept this millennial sane in an insincere, insane world. Prayers for Mimi and the family. Prayers for Adam as well. Sincerely, Jenei Irvin Haas. Aaron Hagstrom.

ITM, Adam. We all are suffering the loss of John. His family as well as you and your family are in our prayers. God bless the greatest podcast in the universe, the podfather, and the best co-host gone too soon. for peace beyond understanding. Sir Ingetty Giles. You, John, you will be missed a lot.

Nicholas Hannah. RIP, JCD, thank you for the great stories and memories over the years on no agenda. Thoughts and prayers to friends and the Dvorak family. I'll jump in. I'm rested now. Janet Kostrevski, last night I was sitting in a wine and food tasting with winemaker Maria Tatsis, talking about how much Americans appreciate a great red wine. When I glanced at my phone and saw the

the news about John C. DeVorak. At first, I could not believe it. I'd always hope that one day Dana Burnetti would fire up the private jet, bring John along to Gomanissa, and let me introduce them to the incredible Zinomavro, Xenomavro wines of northern Greece. That dream disappeared in an instant. I still hope Dana, Adam, and of course, John's family will find their way to Gumanissa someday. We'll open a special bottle of kiss nomavro, share stories and toast a remarkable life. Rest in peace, John. Thank you for your wet, your curiosity, and the countless conversations that made

so many of us think a little differently. Cheers to you. May his memory be eternal, Janet Kostrevsky from the Gormanissa Project, Gormanissa Greece. David Leary, Tucson, Arizona, 88, 88, plus the fees. Well played, John. Well played. Surface rust from Rock Island.

So sad to read the newsletter, thinking I was reading an off-color joke only to realize it wasn't just silliness. May God grant mercy to John and welcome him up into the kingdom. He was my favorite curmudgeon, and his sound bites and jingles are often running through my brain and always bring a smile. I pray his family as well as Adam and your fam have peace knowing he lived his life by his terms

and was loved by his many producers. God bless the Devorak family and knowage in the nation. Donate! RIP, John, mercy and blessings. Sir John of the St. Clair Lowlands, Adam and Mimi, the knowage in the nation is devastated and so is our family.

He touched so many lives from afar and will be truly missed. Our hearts go out to you and the Dvorak clan, Sir John of the St. Clair Lowlands. David Malin Jr. I'm truly saddened by the passing of JCD. I feel like I've lost a friend after listening for six plus hours every week for the past 14 to 15 years. My prayers are with you.

I have been listening for over 17 years and was heartbroken to hear that John has passed on. You both have been stalwart companions over the years. I'll miss John and pray for his family in these difficult times. God bless everyone. Darius Walker. From his tech articles to his books to cranky geeks to twit to no agenda. JCD has been part of my life for 40 years.

And he is going to be so missed. He never knew the lives he impacted her how much he was loved. We'll be praying for the Dvoric family and Adam. I'm incredibly sad at his passing. God bless. Joseph de Vernierio. I've been meaning to make this donation for some time, as I've seen 33s everywhere. I hate this is the reason that pushed me,

but can't think of a better way to honor John than making a donation. I came to no agenda because of Adam's first appearance on Rogan, but became a loyal producer in large part due to John. I'll have Mimi and family and my thoughts and prayers in this time. I could get a jobs karma for my wife and a John's donate jingle for old time's sake. Best. Yes. Hold on one second. Jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs. And jobs. Let's vote. You've got karma. Hold on.

Here comes the donate. So now, Joseph? We're just to Joseph. We're doing... Karma. Lucas D. I think. Lukas.

Larkas. Barrington, Illinois. Rest in peace, John. Nathan Brookfield. I've been a no-agenda listener and producer for the best part of the last 20 years. and a JCD follower since the tech TV in the 90s, which was shown on pay TV here in Australia while I was growing up. He was and always will be,

one of the grumpiest and opinionated people I have ever had the absolute pleasure of listening to and getting to know through the magic of podcasting. Adam, it was a match made in heaven. If it wasn't for podcasts, he would have never been able to fall in love with John's whimsy and get to know the great man he was. I'm not afraid to say that seeing this news today brought a few tears and sadness. Stay strong, guys. John wouldn't have had any time for us all to be sad, but we'll remember him forever.

Thank you, John, for all your knowledge. you'll be missed. Much love, Erica Stroger. Sir Andrew Walker, Pittsburgh. John, I've heard your voice in my ears most days of the week for 14 years straight. I do not know what life will be like without that anymore. I discovered you on tech TV when I was in middle school.

I think I need to pass. Um, let's trade. Andrew Walker from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. John, I've heard your voice in my ears most days of the week for 14 years straight. I do not know what life will be like without that anymore. I discovered you on tech TV when I was in middle school,

rediscovered you on a cranky geeks in college, and followed you a third time to No Agenda in my 20s when I needed guidance the most. No agenda has been a role model for me for the past decade and a half, and I would not be the man I am today if I hadn't followed your charming, curmudgeon personality all the way to it. I'm just a stranger to you and your loved ones, but I want you to know what a profound, positive impact you've had on my life.

I cannot accurately convey in words how significant it is. I am eternally grateful. Thank you, John. May you rest in peace, you cranky geek. Through Andrew Walker, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Hey, Brennan. Consider a career in audiobooks. We know we've been saying that, too.

I'm telling you that you guys are a nice voice, man. I love it. Sounds really good. Thank you. I'm going to try to slow down so I don't. No, I like it. I like it. Christopher Baker, Marquette, Michigan.

Thank you, John. You're one of a kind and will be missed. May your family and friends find comfort in the knowledge that you are beloved and will be deeply missed. Your insight and perspective on so many topics is irreplaceable. God bless. Danny and Karen DeWolf. Our deepest condolences to the whole family. I had a real connection with JCD. I will miss his gruffness and humor that was a lot like my own.

One of the reasons I enjoyed listening weekly and will continue. Sincerely, Danny and Darren DeWolf. Daniel Sproll. Sprowl? Sprowl? I came to the No Agenda show for Adam but stayed for JCD. The show won't be the same without him. Over the last few years, I found my reactions to be similar to JCD and sometimes Adam.

Keep the show going for many years to come. Gisela Woodr-Woodsis. Today, the universe lost a legend. Thank you, John, for the countless hours of insight, wit, skepticism, and laughter. You've taught us to question the narrative, think for ourselves, and always keep our BS detectors calibrated. The best podcast in the universe will never be the same. Rest easy, John.

You've completed your mission. Prayers for Adam, your family, and the entire no agenda nation. In the morning, and now forever. Jazella and Tom Woodses. of North Royalton, Ohio. Todd and Carly, in the morning, spelled with you. For years, John had made us laugh and think with his unique insight.

Anthony Colton, I've been a douchebag until now. I'm crushed with a sudden passing. y'all have been a part of my life since Adam's first appearance on J. Rogan's Rogan donation.

The chemistry between Adam and John caught my attention right away. I love John's simple ways and appreciate his knowledge. I will miss his honorary ways.

Yeah, we all will. R. IP, JCD. Sir Michael Dunn, Baron of Southern Kentucky. Dear Adam and Mimi, I had an affection for John's cranky and curmudgeonly demeanor ever since I first saw I'm reviewing CD-ROMs on CNET Central when I was a kid in the 1990s. From then on, I consumed as much JCD analysis as I could. as I could find, articles in PC Magazine as a host of cranky geeks, appearing as a guest on Twitter and ultimately his most impactful contribution as co-host to the No Agenda Show.

John, as a No Agenda producer, you were an essential part of my life for six hours a week for over 15 years. I always appreciated your perspective on this crazy world we live in, and you've given me what seems like hundreds of belly laughs with your quick-witted sense of humor. I will miss you and the impact you had on the world. You along with Adam have given me a healthy view of our world and taught me to not take things too seriously. Praying for peace and comfort in this time of grief and uncertainty for Mimi, J.C., Jay, Adam, Tina,

and the rest of the extended Gitmo Nation family. I've never wept at the loss of someone I didn't know personally until today. It hurts. It hurts more than I ever expected. God bless you, John. I never got to meet you in this life, but I look forward. to doing it in the next. No jingles, no karma, love and light to you, Sir Michael Dunn, Baron of Southern Kentucky.

Been away from the show for a while now, but I remain grateful for the important work you do. sincere condolences to Mimi, Adam, and those who knew John personally.

Thank you for your courage. Kevin Lacombe I felt lucky to have started my No Agenda journey with show Zero. The episode of Twit, where John talked about a new podcast he was going to do with Adam Curry. I knew John from his columns in InfoWorld and PC Magazine and of course Adam from headbanger's ball. I was hooked and stayed for the whole amazing journey. My life is forever changed. I love you both.

Rest easy, John. Sir Kevin of Devon. Sir Nicholas Schroeder. No jingles, no karma, only gratitude. From Bush to Obama to Trump, Biden, then Trump again. John was a voice of reason that was a large force in guiding me from a young adult until now. I am forever indebted to him and his family for sharing him with no agenda family all these years. with a debt I feel can never be repaid.

Thank you for the laughs, the critical thinking, and never being satisfied with the cheap, easy answer. Until Valhalla, John, we will see you soon, not today, but soon. Sir Nicholas Schroeder, the Forgotten Jedi, Sergeant At Arms, protector of the roundtable. Rich and Meg Hufford in Tempe, Arizona. We are heartbroken, and our hearts are breaking for you, Adam.

Dear No Agenda Show. This show has provided my family with knowledge, entertainment, and the ability to distinguish signal from noise. I can't begin to tell you how many times someone in my house has said, I wonder what John and Adam will say about blank on the show. As I look back, I realize that this show is there for us through COVID. Both are human resources being born.

My mother's passing. John didn't find his exit strategy, our 10-year wedding anniversary. We met John in Oakland and a Walnut Creek at meetups. My wife and I had no idea what he looked like, so we felt pretty stupid when we asked him. So what do you do for a living? He looked nothing like his headshot, and we felt catfished. Thank you for all the love and light over the years. The Belanger family will forever be thankful.

This one hurts. 73, JCD from Nancy, Margo, Frederick, and Dave, Kilo Mike 6, Tango, Zulu and we've played the fisting nuts. Pineapple backyard, 88, 89. We're getting close to those 88s, 88s.

I'm at a loss for words that John has gone. I've said this before in donation notes, but he and Adam have had a profound impact on my life through the No Agenda Show. I wouldn't be the manned husband or father what I am today without it. My first introduction to his dulcet tones was around the year 2006 when I'd sync the latest episode of Twit to my iPod before walking to school. A few years later, I began listening to No Agenda. That means John has been in my life for 20 years, nearly two-thirds of my 32 years on earth. I remember him fondly when I think about putting my phone in a drawer, even though I have

yet to follow through. And I often hear his voice in my head when I find something that is a superb product. My condolences to everyone in the Dvorak and No Agenda families, John will certainly be missed by us all. Sincerely, Sir Spencer Sumner, Viscount of Alberta. Andrew Martonic. Nobody, and I mean nobody, could ever come close to JCD's level of curmudgeon. He was truly one of a kind. I will miss hearing him twice a week.

I only recently donated after JCD has had his heart attack. Well, bypass. I myself had the widow maker at age 32 in October of 2025. As an otherwise healthy guy, it was a bit of a life-changing experience for me, my wife and my daughter, and I'm sure JCD had similar thoughts about his.

Go to no agenda meetups.com. this is proof that no agenda is much, much bigger than anyone could ever even fathom and imagine because you do these, you organize these by yourself, you just go to hang out. You put our heads on sticks, maybe, hasn't happened in a while, but go pour one out for JCD and just hang out, celebrate him together. It's a wonderful thing to do. Remember the connection always gives you protection.

The people you meet at meetups will be your first responders in any emergency. No agenda meetups.com. If you can't find one near you, start one yourself. It's always easy and always a party. Sometimes you want to go hang out with all the nights and days. Be where you won't be. Drink it all hell's lame.

It's the same. It's like a party. We're not going to do a tip of the day for obvious reasons. And no ISO sound off. Hey, hey, hey. Oh, I'm sorry. There he is, ladies and gentlemen. Yes.

How could I even screw that up? Create advice for you and me. Just the tip with JCD. There he is. The man who created the tip of the day. Dana Brunetti is back with us. Dana, I'm so sorry. Yeah, no worries.

The only tip is to donate to no agenda. Oh, that's a good tip. Can I give a different? tip. That tip's also good, but it's one more. Take photos for the memories for all of these meetups. Yes. Yeah, that's a great idea. Dana, I'm sure them. I'm so glad you pop back in, man. That's fantastic. Now, I've been listening to on my phone as I was running about. Sorry, I lost it earlier.
