On July 23, 2026, the No Agenda Show released a heartfelt memorial episode titled "In The Mourning," honoring co-host John C. Dvorak, who died three days earlier at the age of 80. Host Adam Curry opened the solo broadcast with a call for July 20 to become a national holiday in Dvorak's honor, as thousands of listener-producers contributed donations and shared memories.
Curry described his partner as "my friend, my business partner, my comedic counterpart, my all-time favorite broadcaster," revealing a hole in his heart "you could turn a 747 around in." The episode revisited iconic moments from the show's nearly 19-year run, including Dvorak's infamous "I got ants" rant, his love for Costco Bordeaux, and the long-guarded secret that he was six years older than the New York Times reported.
Dvorak's widow Mimi confirmed that he died peacefully at home while watching NCIS, after asking for a spoonful of Manuka honey. She also revealed the age gag, which Dvorak insisted Curry expose after his death. Other guests included Will Hearst, comedy writer Marty, producer Dana Brunetti, and Dvorak's DH Unplugged co-host Andrew Horowitz. They shared stories of Dvorak's encyclopedic wine knowledge, his early motorcycle days, and a legendary CES dinner where he ordered $8,500 in wine on investors' tabs.
Executive producer credits topped $5,000 from Dame Kathryn cryptogranny of Bangkok, with hundreds of listeners donating $188.88 to match the episode number. Curry closed by urging fans to raise a glass of wine in Dvorak's memory.
