    • Trivia
      The episode is based on a story Matt Selman heard on the radio about Julia Butterfly Hill, an American activist and environmentalist who lived in an old California Redwood tree known as "Luna" for over two years, between 1997 and 1999 to prevent loggers from cutting it down.
    • Goofs
      When the tree is sliding down Lombard Street, the TransAmerica pyramid is shown in the background, to the west. The pyramid is actually east of that block of Lombard Street..
