Trivia

Davis rails against the station's policy of playing songs from a list he describes as "every The Big Easy (1986), Crescent City (2011), 'Care Forgot' compilation ever made." The titles he reads off are, in fact, all on the soundtrack to the Big Easy, which featured Treme star 'John Goodman' in a supporting role.

Goofs
