- The song "Jailbait" by Drive By Audio can only be heard in the downloadable version of The Lost and Damned, as for unknown reasons it is not featured on the disc version of Episodes from Liberty City.
- Occasionally Jimmy Gestapo can be heard going into on-air rants against "California kids and their parking lot punk tours", a reference to the popular touring punk-based music festival Vans Warped Tour and how many of the bands that played at Warped Tour in the 2000's were California-based.
- This is one of the few times where California is directly mentioned in the HD Universe instead of its counterpart, San Andreas.
