During an interview with Tim Heidecker, Wilson reflected on the discomfort he felt during the episode, which aired three years ago. He noted that Maher appeared to be under the influence, stating, "I did not expect him to show up wasted. I could feel him being wasted... it was a tumbler of Scotch and something he was smoking."
