* MemeticMutation: [[WesternAnimation/RickAndMorty "Pickle Dick"]]. [[note]]On the facebook fanpage, a former podcast fan by the name of Mike Pickell, complained that the show had a heavy slant against "whites" and as such, couldn't support the show nor the fandom. Cue a deluge of fans pointing out all the stuff whites have done throughout history, which is indeed a recurring theme of the podcast. Eventually, Dave Anthony caught wind of this, and posted fanart of Nicolas Cage as a pickle, while also calling the fan a Pickle Dick. The name stuck, though it's also known as "Pickell Dick" or "The Pickell Incident".[[/note]]

** "Black Panther Fred Hampton" where they detail his life as an activist as he rises among the ranks of the Black Panthers, and later shot to death during a very bad police raid at one of his apartments, the following cover-up by the Illinois State Attorney General, the grand jury failing to pass criminal indictments against the police and judges throwing out the civil lawsuits that resulted from the raid all are very reminiscent of the recent questionable death of several African-American men at the hand of police offers that has led to the rise of the Black Lives Matter movement.
