They Truly Feel Like My Smart Funny Friend
I stumbled upon the Overthinking it crew when I was bored a few years ago and wanted more pop culture commentary in my life, and without any idea on where to start I typed "Overthinking Pop Culture" into the google machine and imagine my surprise when the first thing that pops up is a site LITERALLY called overthinking it! Since then, I have listened to every single episode and with their semi-recent backlog uploaded to itunes have begun going backwards. Once a month or so I have long drives, an hour both ways, and even the ten minutes to drive to and from work I listen to them talk. And even though they often joke about it, sometimes I really feel like I have them in my car. I laugh at their jokes, I understand their personality, heck even my vocabulary has increased (I have had to explain what a normative discourse and a false dichotomy is to so many people). If you at all think of yourself who wants something more out of your pop culture, you think that there isn't anything in the odd sci fi or tween drama movies, let me tell you that this is the podcast for you, I hardly ever watched movies before I started listening, and now once or twice a month I make sure I go see a new film, not for the film itself, but becasue I want to hear my smart funny friends talk about its spoilers. Thank you overthinking it, for making my drives bearable and making me a smarter, funnier human being Greetings From Missouri Ian Diamond

It's refreshing to have a somewhat academic dissection of popular culture. The ability to apply Proust to pretty much everything is shocking.

I think the tagline pretty clearly describes the podcast. If you like that sort of thing, you'll love the podcast, because these guys overthink with aplomb.

A clever and hilarious podcast that addresses everything from Gossip Girl to high art to politics. A must for anyone who overanalyzes seemingly one dimensional things.Read full review »
