  • Overthunk Ep 7 - Give me a forking break...!

    Welcome to episode 7 of Overthunk!  The pandemic is in full swing… we’ve been sheltering in place for months… and we’re out of clean forks again!!!  What the fork…!!!  I just did dishes…  Okay so we’re all in this together right.  We’re all going a little crazy together…  Yes, we’re healthy thankfully and have it much better than most as Tony points out and yet there are still effects this has on our mental state.  Humans are not built for uncertainty.  Think about all the things we do to ensure control and certainty.  Take one thing away like the ability to buy toilet paper and it all goes to shit, pun intended.

    Enjoy our episode where it is revealed where the idea for Overthunk came from originally and meet our good friend Tony who has a heart of gold.  Tony is an accomplished acoustical engineer and also volunteers saving birds, horses and any other animal you can imagine.

    We hope you are doing well, being kind to yourself and hanging in there.

    Love,

    Aaron and Chris

    Welcome to episode 6 of Overthunk! At this point we really just needed a laugh! And as luck would have it our friend the incomparable Regina Decicco is our guest today! Regina is a powerhouse and I’ve said it before but again we’re so thankful to have her on our show!!

  • Overthunk Ep 5 - Quarantine Mindfulness Games
    Welcome to episode 5 of Overthunk! Today we talk about how we’re adjusting to the complexities of social distancing and staying home due to Coronavirus… We also ask ourselves a myriad of questions that you may also be asking yourself; How am I feeling? What challenges am I having? Any tips that seem to be helping? What am I learning? How will this change my life moving forward?
    Whether you’re an overthinker or not this is a challenging time for everyone. So in this time of uncertainty you can be certain we will be overthinking it from a number of angles. Enjoy as we talk to our two special guests today and maybe you’ll even learn something, I did. *Please don’t take this as medical advice, consult your health care professionals for your needs.

  • Overthunk Ep 4 - Don't call me stupid... !
    Welcome to episode 4 of Overthunk! Today’s episode we recorded back on March 15th before the ship really hit the fan. It’s been a trying couple weeks for the planet and we hope this lightens the mood for a little bit. We were lucky to have my brother, Charlie Baker, as our guest today. He’s one of the best people I know and his sarcasm and wit make him so much fun to talk to. The episode starts a little tense as we get through some technical difficulties, however, I think it lightens up pretty quickly.
    Today you’ll hear a lot of F bombs and hear sophisticated vocab words, like stasis, from a very gifted writer. Speaking of writing you’ll also get a mini lesson on story structure ~ Conflict = a Compelling Story. You’ll find out why this is Aaron’s “time of the year” and generally just have a great time as we discuss our bain of the day.

About Overthunk

From the publisher's feed

What happens when 2 over thinkers get together and start a podcast? Exactly what you might imagine. One day at a friends wedding Aaron and Chris had an idea, it sounded like fun, we talked about it and then we thought about it for several months… What would it be about? What will we say? Who will listen? Will it be any good? How the hell do we even make a podcast??
