Production

In 2011, Adam Carolla pitched a spinoff series to Crank Yankers to Fox that would center centering on his character Dick Birchum, but the series was not picked up.

Sage Steele replaced Candace Owens in the cast after Owens departed from the Daily Wire after a period of tension resulting from her coverage of the Israel–Hamas war.
