- Beach Kiss: Most of their kisses are on a beach, as most of the podcast takes place on a beach.
- Beautiful Dreamer: When they were 13, Emmet pretended to fall asleep on Lincoln's shoulder. Lincoln thought he was actually asleep.
- Business Trip Adultery: Lincoln's dad only doesn't take Lincoln with him on his business trips when they aren't actually business trips.
- Cast Full of Gay: Lincoln is gay and Emmet is bisexual. Emmet has two moms who he often talks about and it is revealed by Lincoln in episode 10 that Dennis, a NASA media-relations employee Lincoln and Emmet talk about a lot, has a husband.
- Closet Gay: Lincoln in the first few episodes. No longer towards Emmet from episode 5 onward, in which he kisses Emmet.
