*Homsar does not appear to [[Homsar#Speech|speak coherently]] on the phone in this toon despite having previously done so in [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 5.0]] and when he specifically points out in [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 17.2|Version 17.2]] that he does so. However, since he accurately predicted Homestar's guess, it's possible the incoherence this time was Homestar's fault and not his own.

**Bubs's portion of the contest is based on both ''{{w|Let's Make a Deal}}'' and ''{{w|The Price Is Right}}'', in which contestants are expected to pick which prize or Big Deal of the Day is behind each of the three doors while attempting to avoid getting a "Zonk", a ridiculous and worthless prize (for example, "The World's Largest Crying Towel"), and guessing the retail price of a product but will automatically fail if they "go over" by guessing too high, respectively.

**The cards Homestar flips over for the Brothers Strong are in the style of ''{{w|Family Feud}}'' flip panels, with their initials instead of numbers. The lines the announcer says as Homestar flips the cards over are also references to the show. The sliding needlepoint door with "[[The Brothers Strong]]" is also a clear nod to the show's format {{w|Family Feud#Broadcast history|from 1976 to 1995}} where each episode would begin with the same doors with the names of the competing families that reveal the contestants, usually doing absurd poses behind it.

*Homestar's use of the phrase, "a pleasure and a joy-joy" recalls the song "{{w|Stimpy's Invention|Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy}}" from ''{{w|The Ren & Stimpy Show}}''.
