Kinda? There are a few plot-relevant episodes with titles different from the main episode titles. Specifically Coda, Prelude, and Intermezzo. (And Da Capo, when it comes out)

Parental neglect/absence is an important aspect of one character's backstory. There are others who harm children far more intentionally and several children are harmed, threatened, or killed - this includes relative strangers harming children as well as family members harming children.

A number of animals die or are found dead. I would say the most notable is an animal from a fictional species, which the characters grow attached to it and are forced to put down after finding it fatally injured.

The animal is not really owned by the characters, but it is tame and they bond with it before it is very badly injured and has to be euthanised.

Extremely. This podcast draws on aspects of supernatural horror and weird fiction along the lines of Lovecraft and Robert W. Chambers. This means that there is a very loose sense of reality or a sense that reality is being shaped or changed by unseen forces for most of the story.

There are several points where characters are overwhelmed by incredibly intense or upsetting stimuli and situations. This includes to the point where they are temporarily unable to function/take care of themselves/interact properly with others.

There are multiple fictional religious cults. There is a supporting character who is in a position of religious (Christian) authority and who brings this into most of his approach to the world. The approach to religion is something characters occasionally argue or debate over.
