During the monologue of the episode, O'Brien repeatedly referenced the strike. He said at the start of the monologue that the show had gone off the air for two months in support of the striking writers:
This has been a very tough time, not only for our show but for a lot of people in the entertainment industry. Good people are out of work. And possibly worse, with all the late night shows off the air, Americans have been forced to read books and occasionally even speak to one another. O'Brien claimed if rehearsals got boring over the years he sometimes would take off his wedding ring to see how long he could spin it . He also said his production assistant began to time the spins to see how long they lasted. O'Brien then tried to beat his record on air of 41 seconds.
O'Brien did not beat the record. The spin only lasted for 36 seconds. An audience member then shouted that he should do it again, to which O'Brien replied,"Trust me, there's time to do it again."Paste Magazine mentioned it when writing about the episode in anabout top moments of the show during the strike.
