Time to be real! From romanticism to reality TV, from social media to existentialism, Ellie and David discuss Heidegger’s writings on Eigentlichkeit (authenticity); they go over sincerity, the self, and discuss drag queens as the peak of postmodern authenticity.

Céline Leboeuf, philosopher and expert in existentialism, talks with us about overcoming an existential crisis through the work of Tolstoy, Camus, and William James.

In this episode of Overthink, Ellie and David talk about existential anxiety, FOMO, Netflix’s Emily in Paris, The Good Place, and the difference between the medical and existential model of anxiety.
