* RealitySubtext: The influence the unnamed POTUS has on the plot of the first season is a clear reference to Donald Trump, who was president at the time of the first season. Similarly, the lack of POTUS in the second season is because Donald Trump was no longer president in the time between the release of season 2.

But.....did those songs actually get a bump?? Googling for it, I see nothing about Kokomo being highly streamed or anything due to the show. If more details are available, please re-add the example with the clarifying info!

* ColbertBump: Pretty much every song General Naird sings along to in order to center himself and get back to his happy place. Most notably, "Kokomo" by [[Music/TheBeachBoys The Beach Boys]], which was featured in the first episode, as well as the trailer, and is the first instance in the series of Naird singing to a song in his head to calm down.
