1* ActingForTwo: As standard for tabletop game podcasts, Anthony Burch plays all [=NPCs=] as the DM.
2* ActorSharedBackground: Matthew Arnold is a dad in real life, which he loves to remind people in the intros.
3* CrossDressingVoices:
4** Beth May plays the dad Ron Stampler. Occasionally spoofed when [[PoliticallyIncorrectHero Ron talks about women]].
5** Ashly Burch plays the dad Dennis, as well as [[spoiler:Scam Likely's brother Mark Likely]]. This is eventually subverted by [[spoiler:Scam]] referring to [[spoiler:Mark]] as his "brother-slash-sister", implying that [[spoiler:Mark]] actually has an AmbiguousGender.
6* MethodActing: Anthony gargles a glass of water to simulate [[spoiler:Willy]] speaking with a SlashedThroat.
7* RealitySubtext: As Matt Arnold is the only one in the group who actually has a child of his own, it comes as no surprise that his character is TheStraightMan and the most naturally paternal.
8* ScrewedByTheLawyers: During Season 2, the crew learned that Wrestling/{{AEW}} wrestler [[Wrestling/ThreePoint0 Matt Menard]] had changed his ring name to "Daddy Magic," which the league had subsequently trademarked, legally barring the podcast from using the term in various types of merchandise. While they technically had a case to dispute it, since they'd been using the term for much longer, they quickly decided it wasn't worth the hassle (and that they'd probably lose anyway, given the vast legal resources of AEW).
9* ThrowItIn: As a tabletop campaign, the show largely runs on this.
10** [[NoCelebritiesWereHarmed Elizabeth Warden]] (whose name was also generated by a spur-of-the-moment joke) is introduced as an elf, but after Beth mishears it as "elk", Anthony decides to make that canon.
