Overtired

A little mental health, a lot of Mac talk, some software, some hardware... this one is for the geeks.

Jeff officially joins the Overtired team and immediately launches into a debate on the validity of the Bee Gees as a band. Also, Young Earth Creationism, Satanic Panic, and coming to terms with Sammy Hagar.

Or Second Life With a Helmet... Jeff Severns Guntzel joins the Overtired crew for a third week to discuss Ukraine, zombies, vampires, and things that go viral in the night.

Part 2 of 2: The stunning conclusion of the Jeff Severns Guntzel saga. Less stunning than nerdy, really, from dotfiles to keyboard shortcuts. But also Real World Homecoming.

Part 1 of 2: Jeff Severns Guntzel joins the ADHD party to discuss prosthetic dicks, remembering the 90s, and more nerding out than is probably healthy in an hour. Which is why we split it into two. Stay tuned next week for the thrilling conclusion.

Spotify, Jon Stewart, Tech, and TV. That's what you came for, right?

With a strong focus on media, this episode covers non-binary understanding to, well, 90-day fiancé. It’s pretty broad ranging. As you might expect.

[00:00:00] 20220129 1127 Guest: You’re listening to overtired. I’m Christina Warren. He’s Brett Terpstra Brett. How are you?

[00:00:09] 20220129 1127 Brett: Oh, my God. So good. How are you?

[00:00:13] 20220129 1127 Guest: I’m I’m pretty good. So It feels like it’s been forever since we talked,

[00:00:17] 20220129 1127 Brett: has been, it’s been a couple of weeks. We, uh, we had been recording on Saturday before the Friday we published and then we had a week off, but then we had a shitty week where we fell behind. Now we’re already recording Saturday the day after we were supposed to publish. So it’s been, it’s been a while.

[00:00:37] Yeah.

[00:00:38] 20220129 1127 Guest: Yeah.

[00:00:39] No, this is what happens like we were doing so well. We were like ahead of the game and, and

[00:00:45] 20220129 1127 Brett: had like days to edit.

[00:00:47] 20220129 1127 Guest: Yeah.

[00:00:47] I know in the. had like a thing last week and I didn’t really have a thing. I just, I was, so I was so tired. Like I genuinely was over tired. I was like tired of the point that I could not record.

[00:00:59] I [00:01:00] was like, I cannot do

[00:01:00] 20220129 1127 Brett: Yeah. I picked up on that from your text messages. You’re very drowsy text messages.

[00:01:06] 20220129 1127 Guest: Like, when you can tell that when someone is tired in text,

[00:01:09] 20220129 1127 Brett: Yeah. Yeah. And then we, we rescheduled for mid week and then I got sick, like too sick to sit at a desk. I didn’t actually take a sick day from work. I was able to from a supine position, uh, attend all of my meetings. And the weird thing about work right now is I, I can’t remember the last time we talked, but they, they switched my manager.

[00:01:36] I know we talked about that. They’ve assigned me to a bunch of projects that are basically. Not happening. Like there,

Farts. It's farts in a jar. Spontaneous pregnancy, crypto backlash, and, why not, let's debate the value of The Matrix.

From overtired regrets to the death of Google Reader, this New Year's episode will... I don't know, keep you warm in the middle of winter? Or something.
