Behind The Scenes
- The Farsi, Swahili, and Japanese voices aren't Matt or Trey -- all these languages voiced in the show were performed by native speakers who came into our studio to record.
- David Lee Roth stopped by the South Park offices the week before this episode. We got inspired.
- From Matt and Trey: “In the Writer's Room, we talked about the Biblical story of Job and compared it to Kyle having to endure Cartman's farts."
- Where Did The Idea Come From? Matt read a book about the history of the Temple Mount. It explained that some Jews believe a Red Heifer plays a role in the second coming.
- The "Red Heifer" is not only a real part of the Hebrew Bible, it also appears in the Christian and Islamic faiths.

Bonus Factoids
- Kyle's "Yummy Yummy" ringtone is reminiscent of the Goth Kid's "DEATH AND DESPAIR" ringtone from “Goth Kids 3: Dawn of the Posers”.
- Cows have been a part of South Park since the pilot episode, where Visitors turned them inside out. Also, the school's mascot is the "Cows".

Easter Egg: If you look closely in the Season 17 intro, you can catch Bradley and the Gay Camp counselor from "Cartman Sucks" fishing on the bridge.

We see a News Reporter covering the story in Israel throughout this episode. Lots of other news anchors have been parodied in South Park...the least successful being Cartman's "Tom Brokaw" from Season 3's "Starvin' Marvin in Space".

Kyle gets a visit from God in this episode (when he's in his bedroom, sick off of farts). We first met God in the Season 3 episode "Are You There, God? It's Me, Jesus".
