* HiddenDepths: Mero is actually a very talented graffiti artist. A video where the duo have the office hallways tagged by New York's top graffiti artists had Desus sitting and "supervising" while Mero actively collaborated with the artists, and displayed some seriously good calligraphy skills. There's reason to believe he designed the graffiti on their set as well, and his office whiteboard has been tagged with the signatures of his favorite graffiti artists.
** Desus used to be a substitute teacher and has an English degree, so he enjoys sneaking his deep knowledge of literature and politics into jokes of the SophisticatedAsHell variety. He is also (as is Mero, but not to nearly the same degree), a ''gigantic'' sneakerhead, as evidenced by the gigantic wall of sneakers behind him during the remote shows, and was particularly excited when they got to design their own Timberlands.
** Generally, both are incredibly well-informed politically and pop culture-wise. They're just as comfortable chatting it up with political commentators and journalists as they are with comedians and musicians, and for all their joking, they also have a tremendous respect for political activism and shut up when a point is being made.
