The Overthink Tank

Why We Can't Stop Watching True Crime ft. Aryaan Misra and Aishwarya Singh

We overthink the bizarre appeal of binge-watching murder mysteries.

Can't get enough of true crime shows? Are gruesome murder stories your guilty pleasure? Ever wonder if you're watching too much true crime?

Hey Overthinkers! In this episode, Surbhi is chatting with the hosts of the popular true crime podcast Desi Crime; Aishwarya Singh and Aryaan Misra, to overthink what our fascination with true crime says about us as a society. Are we just learning how to stay safe, or do we all secretly wish we were serial killers? Plus, we end with a fun quiz on some wild crime stories from South Asia.

stuff we overthought:

  • Is true crime making us more anxious?
  • How much crime's really out there?
  • Why do women enjoy stories with female victims?
  • The Good, The Bad, and the Monkey Man
