* UnreliableNarrator: Let's just say Deirdre's impression of Wim Faros doesn't quite match up to Tricia's.

* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler:Deirdre gets arrested when she and the others trespass at the old golf club and will need a a lot of help to cope with her mother's mental state. Also, her mother will probably be going to an assisted living facility. However, a video of she and the others playing a reconstructed Wim Faros song goes viral, ensuring that the music she tried to immortalize will find a larger audience]].

* CloudCuckoolandersMinder: Deirdre and ob to Deirdre's mother.

* CharacterBlog: Deirdre's website [[https://itmakesasound.tumblr.com www.itmakesasound.rocks]] is as ambitious in promise and endearingly slapdash in execution as her show. (The crayon and cardstock background she's provided has coffee stains on it.) She invites her listeners to contact her through it, to send her their completed "Unpacking the Attic" freewriting exercises, and information on where to find a cassette tape player.

* WhamEpisode: Episode 5 is the first time we hear about Wim Faros from the perspective of anyone ''other'' than Deirdre - and it's not as flattering as Deirdre would have hoped. [[spoiler: Apparently, Wim did ''not'' have the reputation of universal genius that Deirdre would hope, with Tricia recalling him as a local CloudCuckooLander, and playing the guitar unasked at a birthday party she was basically forced to invite him to.]]

* {{Suburbia}}: Deirdre lives in a townhouse in Rosemary Hills, a dying gated golf course community, which, in the quarter-century since Wim Faros' first concert, has seen its Nineties development boom go bust. Deirdre reads an entry from what is heavily implied to be her own childhood diary, where she vents splenetically about the loneliness of trick-or-treating in a neighborhood where the median age is sixty, (Werther's and Rolos are all that can be expected) and the process involves navigating intercom security systems and ten minute walks between houses.

* ScatterbrainedSenior: Deirdre's mom is heavily {{implied|trope}} to have some form of dementia, especially judging by her attempt to speak into Deirdre's mic while she's away.

-->'''The Other Voice:''' "Who's there? I'm in the hole. Yes, I'm n-the sixteenth hole. If you can find, wined and dime it...*clapping noises* I ''am'' the hole-holy smokes..."

* LargeHam: When Deirdre gets going, she positively ''evangelizes'' musician Wim Faros in the most florid, ecstatic terms, as though she were the preacher in a church.

* StylisticSuck: Deirdre doesn't necessarily seem to have planned out the production of her show very well, as she interrupts and corrects herself, appears to freestyle segments on-the-fly, and hasn't soundproofed her workspace, so that environmental animal sounds (likely from an open window) and fellow residents of her house can be heard.
