In a bittersweet anniversary episode, Adam Curry has announced that the No Agenda Show will end its 19-year run with a final broadcast this Thursday, October 29, 2026. The revelation came during episode 1915, titled "Off The Rails," published October 25, 2026 from the Texas Hill Country, which also served as a tribute to the late John C. Dvorak.
"Thursday will be the last, not just my last episode, but it will be the last episode of No Agenda," Curry told a roundtable of guests. He explained that he reached an agreement with the Dvorak family that "the show is not the show without John and Adam."
The episode gathered an unusually large guest list, with Curry joined in sequence by venture capitalist Jason Calacanis, film producer Dana Brunetti, financial broadcaster Andrew Horowitz, Infowars host Rob Dew, and Texas commentator Matt Long. Topics ranged from Elizabeth Holmes, Nathan Fielder's new documentary, and the line between securities fraud and startup hype, to Tesla's flying car demo, Unitree's kung-fu robots, and AI-generated media "slop." The conversation also touched on immigration, national identity, housing policy, the collapse of organized religion in Europe, algorithm-driven news consumption, and the end of appointment viewing.
Calacanis offered a tribute to Dvorak's influence on tech journalism, recalling running home from school to read JCD's PC Magazine column and crediting him with setting a standard that "many generations of tech writers and commentators were inspired by."
Looking ahead, the episode previewed what will replace No Agenda in the schedule. The Dvorak family is launching a new program called Partyline at partylineshow.com, while Curry will continue his podcast We Get To Do This with Pastor Jimmy and is resurrecting Curry and the Keeper with his wife Tina. The troll room and livestream infrastructure, maintained by Void Zero, are expected to remain operational.
Curry also confirmed that outstanding knighthoods, JCD Challenge Coins, and producer rings will still be honored, and donations will continue to be accepted at noagendadonations.com for listeners who want to complete their peerage.
No Agenda is a listener-supported podcast hosted by Adam Curry and the late John C. Dvorak that offered skeptical, independent analysis of mainstream media, politics, and culture for 19 years. Known for its sharp commentary, humor, and value-for-value funding model, the show pioneered a format of media deconstruction that influenced a generation of independent podcasters.
