Overthinking It Podcast

Episode 83: Extravagaga

by Matthew Wrather — Mon, Feb 1, 2010, 12:01am

Matthew Wrather hosts with Peter Fenzel, Mark Lee, and Joshua McNeil to overthink the Grammys (a little bit), Dollhouse (a lot), agency and rights, knowledge-on-demand, and autotune.

This was our first experiment with livestreaming the podcast recording on Ustream (on the Overthinking It Podcast Page, where it will return next Sunday at 9:15pm ET/6:15pm PT). Though it was admittedly a little distracting and might have gotten in the way of a smooth opening, it seems to be a promising way of making the show more interactive and responsive to its audience.

A Few Announcements

by Matthew Wrather — Sun, Feb 8, 2009, 1:07pm

A few housekeeping announcements for this balmy (at least in the Northeast) February day.

  • Our coverage of New York Comic-Con 2009 continues. Don’t miss any of the (mostly spoiler-free) news and info.
  • We’re adding polls to the Think Tank feature—read our writers’ takes on the week’s subject, and vote for your favorite. (The winner earns a long stand on the keg of glory and bragging rights as your favorite overthinker for a week.) This week: The Best Board Game Ever. Read Part 1 and Part 2, then vote!
  • We’ll be watching and live-twittering the Grammy awards tonight. Follow our twitter feed for obsessively detailed updates every few seconds.
  • <pimp class=”shameless”>Dying to translate your ephemeral and transcendent love of Overthinking It into a gift of cold, hard cash? We’re very grateful, as our server costs recently increased by a factor of 10. There are a couple ways. You could throw us a couple bucks via PayPal, or use this link to Amazon.com (drag it to your address bar for easy, repeated access!) when you shop there and a percentage of your purchase will automatically go to support the site (though you get the same low price you would anyway).</pimp>
