The episode also covers Amy Schumer posting a red bikini video and sharing a message about laughing with friends, getting off screens, breathing, moving, and jumping in water.

Nate Bargatze is noted as Grand Marshal at the Daytona 500, where he slept at the track, discussed NASCAR possibly returning to the Nashville Fairgrounds, and joked about finding material for NASCAR-centric sketches.

Bert Kreischer is mentioned appearing at Daytona with driver Natalie Decker in a sponsor-related post.
