April 25 The Shaggy D.A. vs Cujo
It's another Gen X stream-of-consciousness with Chris and Mike! Also, Chris's recent appreciation of the film "Cars 2" leads to yet another deep dive into the possible physiology of the cars. What are they? Fully mechanical? Or like turtles with hard shells and organs inside?? Yes, it's technically a podcast, but these are really the types of conversations they would have anyway.

April 06 Spiritual Algorithms
Chris and Mike record an episode on their phones in a hotel room in Austin, TX! Clearly, the walls were a bit thin, as you can occasionally hear people walking by in the hallway. That means it must have been a BLAST for anyone in the surrounding rooms to listen to a live podcast recording! Fortunately for everyone, this was recorded early in the afternoon. Ahhhh, technology. ..

About I Think You're Overthinking It

From the publisher's feed

Hey it’s me! Chris Hardwick! This new old podcast is now called “I Think You're Overthinking It," because, well, I am an incurable overthinker. Are you? Probably! Why else would you have clicked on this? Do you lie awake at night analyzing some random conversation you had in 2009 on a loop? Or every one since then? In an economy of attention where our minds are on overdrive every second of every day it seems damn near impossible to pump the brakes on our inner chatter. We might feel okay when we’re distracted externally with work or streaming or scrolling, but when we’re not, BOY can we think ourselves into holes—these holes keep us stuck and unable to feel peace or pursue our goals.
