As an over thinker a lot of these topics are my head and I love listening to similar perspectives & also hearing professionals talk about stuff like narcassism

I love this show but Amanda please go to the dentist.

A little too rehearsed and self-centered
lidia___011 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/02/24
I love Amanda's books and the podcasts she's grown from two of them. Magical Overthinkers is quickly becoming my favorite. The balance between authentic vulnerability, deep thinking and lighthearted silliness eases listeners into deep dives on topics they might not even realize they care...Read full review »

I’m a fan of yours/Amanda’s podcast work at Sounds Like A Cult already and was interested to see where she was gonna take this one. As a dead center, card carrying GenXer I got hooked once again after listening to the Millennial Cringe episode. Describing Boomers as “earnest” is so dead on. I...Read full review »

I was reluctant about this podcast. A bit about magical things. However this lady cusses and reminds me of a female Joe Rogan.

Great topics to dive into! Every episode is engaging and scratches an itch in my brain.

But the host’s inherent bias towards conservatives is repulsive.
CathSerbs via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/16/24
But the host's manner of speaking irritates me. I couldn't bear to hear her say "delulu" one more time without screaming.Read full review »

Five stars.

This pod hits the sweet spot between cheeky, heartfelt, and analytical—I look forward to it every week!

I absolutely love Amanda Montell’s work and this podcast series feels like a light hearted way to handle the chaos of the world! It helps bring me some more perspective and calm the nerves down.

Most perfect show to accidentally stumble into! Delightful, funny, educational, entertaining! I laugh thinking…. Could I possibly be over thinker? Is this why I like this? The answer is of course and always was.. DUH! Fun show.

I love her books and her Cultish podcast so I was so excited to check out Overthinking! And it’s her signature deep dive journalism combined with her engaging personality and great guests. Such a fun way to overthink!
tofulish via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/27/24
I’m already a big fan of Amanda’s writing—have all 3 of her books!—and her insights and whit absolutely carry over to audio format. Give it a listen!
kelseyren via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/26/24
i’m absolutely *obsessed* with the magical overthinkers podcast. it’s like amanda’s reading my mind and giving it a big, comforting hug. i love listening, learning, and feeling so much less alone in my thought spiraling tendencies. every episode is a little gem that leaves me both enlightened...Read full review »

Digestible but insightful deep dives into relatable topics that simultaneously remind us we’re not alone in our thought spirals while giving the sociological and psychological context necessary to get out of them!! Amanda is SO brilliant and funny and her guests are clearly subject matter...Read full review »

Such interesting topics I didn’t even know I could overthink about! Can’t wait to see what else I can think through!
Clare RG via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/25/24
After reading Wordslut, I was excited to check out this podcast. Amanda’s a great orator and the pod is super informative!
p0dcastluvr via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/24/24
Absolutely love anything Amanda Montell and this podcast is no different. Informative, fun, and making over thinkers everywhere feel less alone 🫶🏻
maas28 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/24/24
From relatable thought spirals to fantastic book recommendations, this podcast has it all. I can’t wait for more episodes.
Alulkovitz via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/23/24
I adore Amanda Montell’s content and love having an audio form of it! As a fellow overthinker, I find this show super insightful and the content super relatable. Don’t overthink it, just listen to it!
anna_iluj via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/23/24
I feel this is a great learning podcast and educational in the art of magical overthinking in the age of too much consumption of information. I love how it’s based off of Amanda’s book which I might have done this backwards listening to podcast before reading book. Overthinkers can’t be choosers...Read full review »

Recently, my entire team at work got laid off, and the episode of this podcast about lay offs has actually been super helpful for us in navigating such a tough time. I love how Amanda approaches these topics!
hanmichelleb via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/23/24
This show makes a girlie with anxiety feel less alone. I relate to the topics and find some of the tips at the end of the show useful.
New listener 321 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/22/24
I found this show by accident and was immediately intrigued! Great topics discussed! Very throughly researched as well!
Yomii08 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/21/24
Love this show! Funny and interesting
Carooooooomeesh via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/18/24
Really enjoy this show. Awesome insight and it is great to know there are other over-thinkers out there!
TIE Elite via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/12/24
It is a great show and so entertaining!
Cata Campos via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/06/24
The social media episode with Britt Frank was more helpful to me than entire years of therapy. I had never thought about addressing things the way she presented them. I’m getting her book and looking into IFS now. I’m so glad I found this podcast! The other episodes I’ve listened to thus far have...Read full review »

The podcast is a newer production but relies heavily on already established interview formats while not invoking new conversations from guests. Tone is not a fun or engaging as the hosts other podcast. It feels more removed and dismissive of people who aren’t upper middle class white collar...Read full review »

This podcast is lighthearted yet incredibly insightful and relevant. I have loved all of the interviews so far and have recommend MO to all of my overthinky pals.
beeea2 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/04/24
Another great podcast from the mind of Amanda Montell!
Upmyali via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/04/24
Highly relatable and makes me feel better about my own thought spirals (even gives tips at the end on how to calm those overthinking moments we all have!) If you are a Millennial mom with people pleasing, overthinking, anxiety tendencies... you will LOVE.
Starily via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/03/24
I love how this podcast is so easy to resonate with. It feels like your listening to your bestie talk to an expert on topics so easy to overthink. It basically provides designated time to overthink something and then ends with a tip to help manage your mental health.
F*** the tickets via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/02/24
I discovered Amanda from her other podcast, Sounds Like a Cult, and when I found out she was starting this one I subscribed immediately. I love the takes she has on things, even if they don’t affect my life directly it’s always a fascinating listen! Will continue to recommend to my friends and...Read full review »
aimeewins27 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/31/24
If you are already a fan of sounds like a cult pod, than you know how good this one will be. Deep dives into the things we all overthink about. My favourites so far are about imposter syndrome and burnout! Highly recommend.
Saraalexis via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 07/30/24
Long time Sounds like a Cult listener and could not have been more excited about the The Age of Magical Overthinking Book and subsequent podcast. Different vibes on this podcast but same wonderful host. I love her love of linguistics and it truly shines through her writing and speaking.
Sac7272 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/30/24
I love this podcast! I have my friends and husband hooked waiting for each episode drop. Very good insight to many things we all struggle with overthinking about. It’s great to hear like minded people work through their compulsive thoughts and overthinking of various topics together! Definitely...Read full review »

As a clinical psychology PhD student, I love how much this podcast resonates with me (and everyone I recommend it too). There’s something for everyone, and I love how the guests complement the hosting so much.

ive learned so much!
Looloololly1011 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/29/24
I’ll read/listen to anything this woman puts out at this point.
eyecontact521 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/29/24
My absolute favorite podcast! So relatable !
Nathalie bea via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/29/24
I absolutely loved the book and Amanda’s other podcast! I definitely felt like the book was too short, so I’m happy I get to spiral with her some more! I think that each episode has been exactly what I needed at the time I needed it! Can’t wait for the next one!
Nyna793 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/29/24
Despite all of the weirdly sexist reviews I think you should give this podcast a listen. If you can’t handle women talking….um listen to another podcast I guess? If you want an educational and concise pod that will tickle your brain and make you feel not alone, this one is great! I love Amanda...Read full review »

Pretty sure I’ll love anything Amanda Montell puts out into the world, but truly truly love this podcast. It’s a not so serious approach on topics that we give way too much weight to in every day life. The perspectives in interviews dismantle the weight of these topics and make me much more...Read full review »
Micah Vetter via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/22/24
The content is interesting and smart but the tone makes me think of 90210 valley girls and as a gen-x it is impossible for me to overcome the giggles and tone to take this show seriously. It is a popular psychology show, sometimes the content is good, if you can overcome the tone.
Birgittenyc via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/21/24
I am very happy to have found this podcast. I believe I’m in a chapter in my life where there have been so many moving parts , but I have continued to get to a place where everything is a little bit calmer. While listening to the narcissism podcast, I could think of a handful of people who have...Read full review »

The show is fantastic! You’re hitting what so many people are thinking about with nuance and sophistication. (Production note 🙏🏼please have your guests drink water before and during interviews—clicky mouth sounds distract from the wonderful material.🙏🏼)
