Live Insuphishient Vol. 5 was recorded live on October 13, 2022, in Boston, Massachusetts, a city located approximately 215 miles (346 km) northeast of Hartford, Connecticut.

At the time of its release, the episode received a mixed reaction from listeners, as it was largely a standard Insuphishient recording compared to other episodes from the same era. Historically, the show had been known for unverified claims, unresolved arguments, and at least one unexplained audio glitch per episode, but this particular recording adhered to a recognizable structure, which some longtime listeners found mildly unsettling.

Despite its somewhat conventional format, the conversation takes several turns, including an extended discussion about a topic that was never revisited, and an 11-minute segment in which Nick and Matt debate the practicality of an item neither of them have ever used. At one point, an individual in the room briefly attempts to contribute via megaphone, though their remarks are largely ignored.

Three months later, the hosts would take an indeterminate pause from recording, which was neither officially announced nor explicitly acknowledged. They would eventually return for another episode, which was recorded at a later date, featuring subject matter that may or may not have been planned in advance.
