Somewhere between sleep deprivation and emotional exhaustion, we try to choose a side.

In this episode, the dilemma sounds simple but gets deep fast: would you rather be the healthiest person on earth, with no pain, no wrinkles, and no complaints — or be obscenely rich? What starts as a “health vs wealth” debate turns into a candid conversation about beauty standards, cosmetic procedures, insecurity, social media pressure, aging, and whether money actually changes happiness. Plus: a...

This Valentine’s-themed episode goes fully off the rails: would you rather sleep in a bed full of roses with thorns every Valentine’s Day, or call your parents on FaceTime every single time you kiss your partner?

This episode’s dilemma gets chaotic fast: would you rather permanently remove WhatsApp from your phone, or be woken up every day to have breakfast with a too well known personality for a month?

This week’s dilemma: would you rather cry every single time you speak, or always have to shower in a smelly and sticky shower?

This week’s dilemma: would you rather paint half your face blue every Monday and go to work like that, or dance in your underwear for five minutes every time someone says the word “blue”?

In Episode 2, the dilemma is painfully healthy: would you rather give up sweets for a whole year, or work out for three hours every day starting at 5 a.m.?

In the very first episode of Overthink This, the dilemma is already disgusting: would you rather spend Christmas completely alone, or chew a piece of gum you found under a random table?
