Behind the scenes
- Antioch is a real world city in Central California, northwest of San Francisco.
- The city's name is used as a reference to the 1975 film Monty Python and the Holy Grail, in which a very powerful explosive known as the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch is used by the knights of Arthur to kill a murderous bunny.
