OVERTHINKERS | 118 | Clint thinks he's hot

About this episode

The team navigates home tenancy panic, relationship dynamics, and high-stakes self-assessments.

Dan reveals a growing domestic crisis involving a decaying fruit tree that belonged to his landlord's mother, a misidentification of citrus varieties, and the silent treatment over text. Clint brings a theory to the table about "punching" above your weight class in relationships, questioning whether lower-rated partners actually see themselves as lower-rated or if they’re settling for less than a 10. Finally, the trio plays a deadly rating game where they must guess where 100 strangers would place them on a 1-to-10 scale within a 0.5 margin of error, leading to wild overestimations, surprisingly low self-esteem, and unexpected compliments.

This is a podcast from Rover This is the overthinkers podcast Gilda thanks for joining us What would you guys do just quickly before we get into the meet-ticks of podcast me? We talked about it a bit on the radio show the other day how I've got a lemon tree in the front yard We rent our house and the lemon tree is the pride and joy of our Landlord whose mother planted it many years ago and when we moved in He said please take care of the lemon tree my mother planted it when we were kids Lemon trees did Drys a bone Scratch the bark off if it's green underneath it's still got life in it yeah and It's quite a had a handle of sleep on last night my wife She was at the last night because I don't know what to do like Anyway, I messaged the landlord last night about 8 p.m. Saying hi Dave. I hope you're having a good week

We have been because this will ruin it. We have a bit of a situation with the mandarin tree in the front yard I thought it was lemon tree Hannah's correct to met some mandarin tree Well, it's like a funny mandarin though, you know like I don't think it's even been a healthy tree because they look very small It's obviously been sick for a while. It was putting a yellow mandarin Yeah, I've been progressively looking less happy over the last few weeks tried watering it on the dry days And we went to plant the barn a few weeks ago and they suggested some fertilizer which we tried but to no success in the last week It's taken a turn for the worst just wanted to let you know and if you want to try and remedy it yourself You're more than welcome and then I sent a photo of said tree and it's all its brown depressing looks They've been they've left me on seeing Oh, they still crying did you person it because a lot of people said do ease on it? I couldn't bring myself to do that. Yeah, like Ruben salt and away. Yeah, and I think it's past It's like being on a dead body, you know like it's I feel like it's kind of that's not a saying No, you know like that's like trying to do CPR on something when Gregor Mortis is already set in yeah

I think it's past the point of being able to fix it I'm not gonna save it so and and that he's always messes just back very quickly and they've left me on scene I think you've really missed an opportunity here to just dig it up and put a fresh one in now But man that there's no going back. Yeah, we discussed that but then you'd notice you don't us Yeah, but when was the last time he was around he comes around quite often like every three or four months Because he does a lot of the gardening and here's my other thing He likes doing the gardening and landscaping himself. So can we blame him? Because he comes around quite often does some weeding and stuff And I'm like oh, you didn't care for your tree if it gets that point you're gonna have to if he starts threatening you You feel like actually you're the landscaper. Yeah, so I don't know if anybody's got some advice Please get get in touch with us on the other that isn't personal. Yeah, feed bit. We've already had that advice Today on the overthinkers podcast I think I've got center have you got something Clint? Well, yeah, we was a conversation We were just having briefly off here. I was like maybe it's one to bring on here I've pondered this before and it's because I have a maybe I should ask my mate, but I haven't made who

Is easily punching and his relationship, which is great everyone wants to be the one punching right rather than that they say set LaRicha Nothing wrong with it. Somebody messaged me on my Instagram was that oh my god Clint love you But you are punching so hard with your wife. I was like great. Yeah, everyone wants that. Yeah, I think as a guy You want to be punching as a girl. I feel like it's less so like if someone's a New year's angrier have someone said to you me your punching. I feel like you'd be offended in most woman would I I personally been myself or I wouldn't be offended. I like the I'm the same I kind of like the fact that I people think my husband's hot. I've always said that. Yeah, but I do think it's Less seen as and I think it's like people are nastier to like the in theory More unattractive woman and hot a guy people were like he's going or he's cheating on you Constantly as it would there be anybody willing to admit that they're their partners punching. I don't think so my mate is I want to be nice. So I'll give them a mixture a couple of points. I know five out of who you're talking about and I know who you're talking about with her

It's so obvious. Are you talking about me? I know can I quit? I'm gonna write it down so people can't see he's like a five and she's like I see who it is. Is that who you mean? Can I see? Is that who you mean? Oh? God Jesus. Yeah, well, it's I think cameras everywhere. So I'm gonna like he's got a better personality though Okay, but I'm gonna say if he's a five She's like a nine and I'm yeah, and so I'm going Do four and five's out of ten. Yes, obviously they find nine and tens Attractive because the world does right but to four out of ten's find four out of ten's attractive because they you know they're playing You know in the same division No, especially me like I just gonna have to settle for a four because I'm a four I don't think there are many four or five men that are actually four or five's that genuinely think they're four or five's that then could only get four or five I think they think that they could get all the tens so

I saw a woman this was really interesting I saw a woman on tectok go viral the other day because the she left a comment on But if I ten guy a guy that was like he's famous because he's hot He's got and he's got an a tectok famous because he is so attractive than like and she had posted up a photo of herself and Shot her shot. She you know, which is what we all tell people to do shoot your shot Who knows and she kind of wrote a bit of a description about herself and that comment became the most liked and commented because people were like the audacity to think You could get him and he'd be interested in you and she was like But he's my type. We're like well. He's everyone's type Yeah Such an interesting question because she sees it as like well That's not my fault that my type is a 10 out of 10 guy with washboard abs But she isn't in theory a 10 out of 10 washboard at war washboard And that's not that though like my type I on paper I hope would be like a 10 out of 10 my question is I guess if you're a three four or five Are you just settling in all of your relationships and not really all that happy because you've settled for a five because that's what you can get

When you're Nine out of ten out of ten Holly do they see fives as ten out of tens because they're in theory or we should say we are We say there We see five out of fives as tens because we are also on that guy. I don't see so you but I don't think you should ever if you're Settling yeah, I don't feel a relationship. You were in the wrong relationship. Yeah, you're great There's no you know, no, you're obviously Compromising to get this. No, and that's what that lady said she was gonna have to do now I think girls will give guys a lot more points for personnel even guys will give girls 100% Me and I have this conversation all the time where you Quite consistently see a ten out of ten girl with a guy who is maybe not a ten out of ten But he's the funniest guy in the room and I said swap it the other way around and I said good find a girl who is like kind of not known as for being Pretty she's in theory let's say what you'd say society is ugly, but she is the fucking bombest funniest

Relate personality. He's not one team to get with her. She is now his best friend. Yeah Yeah, but that isn't that said that's not doesn't happen that way does it? What would you guys write yourself so if you could give yourselves one to ten and it's who's ten? Who's ten? You gotta tell me who is the team? Chris hems. No because the paradigm's different for different people So like you might one person might think that Chris hems worth is the ultimate another person might think that fucking Susan Boiles The hottest woman they've ever seen okay, so she's like the most perfect human being that you could be We just don't overthink it just where would you put yourself in the world and like out of all the world Yeah, I'll write down like honestly and you can do points. You know a point like you do a six point five We're nine points Can we okay? We promised to be honest and we're not gonna do too lower to look and we're doing that we know to look like And when yes, we're we're promised we're putting it what we think Yes, and be honest 100% honest out of the world If you put me on a scale from one to teens out of the world, okay, yeah, no, I don't have to weigh yourself. No

I Don't know it's so hard is okay. I've got my number of where I think I If I if I if I see you're gonna lose your life if you don't get within You gotta get within half a point of what the average A hundred people would rate you and then they gave you an average if you're not within point five you die Okay, I reckon that's I reckon that's yeah, I reckon I'm within point five of what a hundred people would say I was It's tricky because so now I'm thinking about what other people would say I was thinking about what I know what you think you're gonna you will Pass away And point five of what a hundred people would average you out to be yeah, okay And then I think what we do is we put this up online We put this video up online and say if people agree or disagree are we willing to are we willing to put ourselves out there With that okay, yeah, yeah, the start with Clinton number first name in the show anyway Clint has rated himself that he thinks he would pass away

If you didn't get within point five either side 7.9 So it's either it's an eight is it a point four I can go anywhere from simple it eight point four four Yeah, I have mine back no, I think that's where I think that's where a hundred people somewhere that put me this I think a 7.9 I don't die And let's not call me but I feel like that is yep, why are you against too high? I'm not gonna say Do you think it's too high? I mean I'm the wrong person to be voting on club because I don't find them attractive I put my number as um, so I'm just gonna do a few a gay you'd so one have sex with me my right you fart too much Okay, I put my number If I die if I don't get point five either side is 5.7 me you're higher than you'd be dead 1 I think you guys know me

7 yeah, I can face alone you're you're higher than Clint boys if it's a lot of mean that a voting they vote lots on like on I'm just looking at BOD so and I haven't got the board at the moment so well dad okay Why'd you get five? No, you are you I'm very impressed. I was this way one of his number back. I'm very impressed I but I was voting on what people I think people would say yes, and that's what I voted mine 5.7 I think I wouldn't die Dan has put it himself as a 7 So anywhere between 7.5 and a 6.5 That's pounding What do you think? I'm theory Cross over it's you know what's up? I'm just going on from what I've seen feedback Why I definitely think out of the three of us would put myself at a three out of the three of us I would mix the first to die the most likely I could not disagree with you boys more like you guys are lovely to me and you know me so well

But if you get a hundred male strangers, there's no way I'm getting higher than a 5.7 You are I put my hand on the Bible and say you are one of the most But you know me You know he's going to say I'm going to say You're not even like I'm I think you're a Halloween day We've got a we've got a big meeting at the moment now so we're going to go on big meat What's a big meeting? You've got an hour long meeting talking about how we saw No, it could be an hour great. I think it'll be a mixed bag. It'll be a pot of party It's going to be one of those sandwiches I really love this. This was a bit shit. It makes two more of this He's locked in an hour. Okay, oh, I've gone down to a five now. I feel bad about myself No, hey, I look at this number Dan Steven yeah, very strong I love how we're still surprised even though I put myself a 7 which is not even that good good You know, it's not surprised I didn't come from me not thinking you're a trend of my surprise and happiness comes from you saying

I'll count down from three to one you both say the number that you'd rate me Can you stand up and I have a really good look at you because I want to really get this right If I was like a stranger in my in the light right he would be honest.
