- A host coins a non-canonical category, Cameo Corner, for blink-and-miss appearances: director F. Gary Gray, who one host thinks bears an uncanny resemblance to Chance the Rapper and another does not, is mopping up in the deli scene.
- Cube, Tucker and F. Gary Gray were all in their early-to-mid twenties, Tucker about 23 and Cube and Gray 24 or 25, so the film is the output of young creative people.
- Megan Good (as transcribed) appears in two scenes, the opening and the ice cream truck scene with Big Worm; Michael Clark Duncan (as transcribed) is shooting dice on the sidewalk in the scene where Red gets knocked out, on screen for about a second, and reportedly wanted a speaking role; the others had never noticed him.
- The drive-by shooter is identified as Dub C even though the scene is dark, on the strength of a host knowing rappers and later verifying it, teased as the Donnie flexing section; the music cue there, Pay Your Dues by Low Profile, is praised.
