Lisa's search for new career opportunities worries Dave and lands her a gig on MTV News interviewing the thrash band Anthrax. Meanwhile, Jimmy begins a search for a new wife.
"Super karate monkey death car" is said for the first time.
The thrash metal band Anthrax appears in this episode.
Beth tells Lisa to ask if MTV VJ Kennedy's glasses are real or fake like singer Lisa Loeb's. According to Lisa Loeb, her glasses are not fake. In an April 1995 interview with Seventeen magazine she said "If you can't see and you can't wear contacts, then you wear glasses. My glasses are a normal and real part of me. They're not an act."
Mr. James' wife candidates: Faye Dunaway, Mrs. Fields, Mrs. Paul, Catherine Duke and Melanie Saunders(who comes to look at the ad revenue in this episode.)
When Lisa is telling Dave about how successful her brothers are, she accidentally tells him that two of her three brothers are named Greg; one who is 23 and invented the game Super Karate Monkey Death Car, and one who is 27, the chief press-liaison for the governor of Pennsylvania.
Jimmy: Bobby Woodward owes me a favor from way back.
Matthew: What, were you like Deep Throat or something?
Suspiciously, Jimmy doesn't answer this question. This is the longest running gag in the series implying that Jimmy was indeed the famed Watergate informant. Deep Throat was the nickname given to Woodward and Bernstein's inside source during their investigation of the Watergate scandal. Woodward was frequently asked the identity of Deep Throat, but he said that he had promised not to reveal his source while the person was still alive. In 2005, Mark Felt, the Deputy Director of the FBI during Watergate, came forward to say that he was Deep Throat. Woodward confirmed this.
Lisa: My agent says that's what I want to do.
Dave: How long have you been represented by Sun-Myung Moon?
Reverend Sun-Myung Moon and his wife Hak Ja Han Moon are the leaders of the Unification Church, which many people consider a cult because of its strict control over the lives of its members, who are known as "Moonies."
Jimmie has Catherine on the list because she's incredibly hot.
