While discussing lunch, Georgia says that her favorite BBQ place is just down the street. In 2018, Reba appeared in a series of commercials for KFC's Smoky Mountain BBQ Fried Chicken.
The first time Georgia and Joe take the stage together again at his bar, Joe says, "*Fancy* meeting you here," with the emphasis on the word that happens to be the title of Reba's famous song. Fancy was written and made popular by Bobbie Gentry in 1969, for which she won a Grammy.
