"Calling All Angels" was featured at the ending montage of the TV series One Tree Hill episode "Life in a Glass House".[96] "Marry Me" was featured on the episode "The Other Half of Me"[97]
The album's second single, "When I Look to the Sky", was used for the trailer of the 2004 film Jersey Girl.[98][99]
The TV series features Train's songs "Hey Soul Sister" and "Calling All Angels" in the season six episode "Second Chances".[100]
The band was parodied in the "Band Face-Off" sketch on the January 26, 2013 airing of Saturday Night Live, in which they invade a bar, have conflict with Adam Levine (the episode's guest host) of the band Maroon 5, and are later joined by Jason Mraz and John Mayer.[101][102] Train made a statement afterwards that they approved of the parody.[103]
