* SmallNameBigEgo: A running theme with many of John's characters, who tend to act with a self-importance that's belied by their actual accomplishments, or lack thereof. One variation in particular are people who occupy relatively niche positions but use whatever petty authority they have to bully others in their sphere, such as [[Series/WheelOfFortune Pat Sajak]]'s fictional brother Mike who uses his connections to Pat to attempt to throw his weight around; punk rocker Hammerhead who got off on bullying bands and other fans in the punk scene; and Horse, an intimdiating employee of the Jock Squad computer repair shop.

Both Tom and Jon have multiple other projects. Tom was a head writer on ''Series/{{Monk}}'', directed several music videos for bands such as Music/TheNewPornographers, and has done voice work on cartoons such as ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'', ''WesternAnimation/AquaTeenHungerForce'' and most notably as Greg Universe in ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'' (which brought a significant ColbertBump to ''The Best Show''). Jon, meanwhile, is a drummer for several musical acts, namely Superchunk, Music/TheMountainGoats and Bob Mould's band. The duo's connections to other media forms is on prominent display in the show, with [[ReferenceOverdosed frequent allusions]] to music, film, TV and general pop culture being embedded in Tom/Jon skits, Tom's conversations with callers and Tom's unscripted monologues.
