• The title of this episode is a parody of Lenny Bruce's autobiography “How to Talk Dirty and Influence People,” which in turn was a parody of Dale Carnegie's 1936 self-help book “How to Win Friends and Influence People.” Ironically, Lenny only appears in a few seconds of the episode, making it his shortest appearance ever in the series.

SHY: Well… I sure have missed that brisket.
