** Episode 11, "Night Of The Economic Dead", was inspired by a zombie charity run that David did at the time.
** Episode 14, "A Very Hoarder Christmas", focuses on David losing his desk. This is because David was switching desks at the time, and it was written into the special.
** Episode 17, "Rent Inflation", has David visit a campsite in the mountains. This is because David actually did visit a campsite at the time of filming, along with Matthew Stratton's actor, for reasons unrelated to the show.
** Episode 20, "American Dollars", was written as David was visiting Washington D.C. and wanted to do a themed episode.

The series was intended to be his ultimate passion project - a collaboration between artists, writers, programmers, filmmakers, friends and family all focused on the economy. He has openly mentioned in the past that he would be interested in having other people take over for him if he were to retire or die.
