208: More Things Not to Talk About at Dinner

October 07, 2020 17:00 - 1 hour - 46.7 MB

The topics in this episode comprise a guide to conversations which should probably be avoided in… most company. I suppose most Overtired episodes do. But this one hits on veganism, religion, politics, and TV. Ok, you can talk about TV at…

207: Flying Blind

September 30, 2020 17:00 - 1 hour - 48 MB

Unscripted like never before. Left to their own devices, the discussion flows from mental health stigmas to TV shows to movies. So basically a topic list is a waste of time, those two always end up on track.

Talking about Brett’s week without ADHD meds somehow leads to a look at things that have to do with the Holocaust that you didn’t know had anything to do with the Holocaust. Shit gets real. And Hannah Montana Linux. Really.

Brett works to overcome his Gen-X-ness as he and Christina discuss a Taylor Swift theme park, technical woes, and some classic movies.

202: Fight For Your (TV) Music Rights

August 26, 2020 17:00 - 1 hour - 63.3 MB
