Location

Although Linda said once that they broadcast from Los Angeles (1ACV08), they were later seen in New New York on multiple occasions (2ACV14, 6ACV24) and even referred New New York as "our city" (6ACV04). Either it was a goof in "A Big Piece of Garbage" or they moved to New New York after the episode.
