For nearly five years, Overthink has been an independent podcast without ads.
Since the beginning,
David and I have been doing this work without compensation and on top of our full-time jobs as college professors.
But as we transition to weekly episodes and grow our team, this model is no longer sustainable.
So we have decided to join a podcast network and incorporate ads.

We are, as always, thankful for your support and for helping us make overthink a reality.
