OVERTHINKERS reverse sh*t talking
1w ago00:25:31Tap to summarizeWe tried to do something genuinely nice for once by talking behind people's backs in the absolute best way possible, but of course, it completely devolved into chaos. Clint revealed a truly wild mental trick he uses to stop himself from finding hot people attractive, and things got incredibly real when Dan started rinsing the entire New Zealand media industry. Plus, we check in on our Canadian listeners, and Meg ends up in actual tears over a wholesome friendship story. You are not ready for how fast this rolls down the hill!

2w ago00:13:59Tap to summarizeWe finally wrapped up our massive country elimination bracket today, and you won’t believe who won.

From questionable luxury flexes to some seriously awkward throwback posts, Clint was left absolutely sweating in the studio. We also dive into the listener conspiracy theory about why Meg is barely getting any screen time on our video podcast. Trust us, you are not ready for this one!
