He frequently uses witty comeback lines known as "Freightbacks" and does impressions of pirates and Gonzo. He also often abruptly changes the subject of the podcast's conversation, a phenomenon known on the podcast as a "seg-Freight." Freight's fans are known as "Dalfreightions."[4] In September, 2016, the hashtag #iamfreight was introduced by fans.[5]
