* AluminumChristmasTrees: Gary makes an offhand remark about the [[https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/colour-experience-color-museum Colour Museum in Bradford]], which is exactly what you think it is; a museum filled with colour swatches. As Gary explains, it exists because Bradford was at the centre of the wool industry in England.

** Both Gary and Chris knew something about the real Hagia Sophia. Had Tom chosen Chris he still would've been wrong technically as it wasn't his article, but he knew a fact about it and used it without disrupting Gary's description of the article, which was his. Tom believed Matts unrelated folk band story instead and lost.

* ContinuityNod: Tom mentions the time he was rude to Gary in 1x01 for dismissing his answer on the basis of it's absurdity (Tom was also proven wrong); and he does so again. His reasoning this time was due to the supposed "Batlow" river Gary talks about directly contradicting information Tom had researched for a video about short rivers that had yet to be released.
* ContrivedCoincidence:
** Both Gary and Chris knew something about the real Hagia Sophia. Had Tom chosen Chris he still would've been wrong technically as it wasn't his article, but he knew a fact about it and used it without disrupting Gary's description of the article, which was his. Tom believed Matts unrelated folk band story instead and lost.
** Gary talks about a 3 feet river called Batlow, and Tom calls his bluff as it directly contradicted information Tom had researched for a video about short rivers that hadn't released at the time they were filming.
* DistinctionWithoutADifference: Matt says the article of Hagia Sophia didn't say it was a stub, but it was stub-length, which has Chris laugh tremendously afterward.
* IcarusAllusion: Gary warns Tom of his overconfidence when striking out his answer for Batlow. He later says "Careful Icarus" when Tom run through all their descriptions, with Gary scowling all the way through. Since Matt's article description was correct, Tom was indeed correct to trust his gut this time around.
* NoPronunciationGuide: "Hagia Sophia"; Tom has a hard time saying it, and asks Matt to pronounce it, to which he admits he hasn't got a clue either.
* SesquipedalianLoquaciousness: Tom uses the word "Conurbations"[[note]]a merging of multiple towns in urban land to make a city[[/note]] to refer to Matt and Chris's as a collective noun village when asking for facts.
* ShamelessSelfPromotion: Tom mentions to Gary that "he'll just have to watch the video" ([[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEGzvZ85dgs this one to be precise]]) to know what makes a river. Gary immediately calls him a "Self-promoting F***".
* ShoutOut: To ''Citation Needed'' 1x01 where Matt compares the lobster gag in that episode to a former gold mine, referring how it turned into a place to plant Crab Apples.
