Fan Feedback

Highlights of This Episode:

  • The sunglasses Jamie wears in this episode (and in later episodes) are "Julbo Drus Sunglasses".
  • When Adam hands the megaphone to the professional yodeler he says, "I'll turn this up to eleven" (with a fake
    British accent). This is a reference to the infamous guitar room scene in "This Is Spinal Tap", a cult-favorite mockumentary directed by Rob Reiner in 1984.
