Description
Have you ever had a BIG question you were just dying to know the answer to? Ever wondered what it would be like to have that question thoroughly answered with the care and reverence it so richly deserves? Well. Go someplace else. Because what we do is give answers you don't want, to questions nobody should probably be asking to begin with. Shortwave Radio producers John DeVries, Jeff Chaney, and Chris Henry give in-depth answers to questions they find on the internet, and every once in a while they end up making some sense.
But don't count on it.
But don't count on it.

In this Episode, Jeff slays cultural norms, Chris becomes twice as likely to answer questions with earnest truth, and John is a Rock upon which we all may rest our weary minds.
Today is a day for peaceful reflection on the life and times of John DeVries, who passed away and was then brought back to life by a journeyman necromancer who couldn’t bear to miss another episode of OverQualified. He may look like John, but the soul behind those dark eyes seems…different somehow.
Chris and Jeff, strangely, both have a nice time today. John disappears down a dark hole, never to be seen from again.
Chris becomes one with his inner appliance, Jeff eats an entire pizza, and John clears an entire field of weeds with his bare hands just so the neighborhood children will have a safe place to play.
Jeff is a fuzzy cherub, Chris doesn’t want to talk about movies, and John once grew so powerful that the plight of humanity became insignificant as the plight of the ant is to a man; he traveled the universe seeking purpose, only to return to Earth humbled before the vastness of infinity.
Jeff is a master artiste, Chris refuses medical attention, and John captures a passing asteroid, ending scarcity and shepherding the human race into an era of perpetual utopia.
Chris and Jeff share an opinion for once, and John miraculously survives a fiery boat accident unscathed while on assignment in Montenegró.
Jeff has his open mind closed, latched, and welded shut. Chris makes fewer mouth sounds than normal. And John has the whole world in his hands. The Whole. World. in. His. Hands.
Jeff actually knows the answer to a question and then becomes Death, Destroyer of Worlds. Chris is...just, all over the place but he means well. And one morning, when John woke from troubled dreams, he found himself transformed in his bed into a horrible vermin
Eventually, Jeff and Chris will poop on something you love. John developed a cold fusion generator and the era of scarcity is over!
This is not an episode of OverQualified. This is an episode of OverQualified explaining why there isn’t a new episode of OverQualified. Hint: John has a concussion. That is not a joke. Also, the ENTIRE CAST OF CRITSQUAD is here to inhale helium in memory of John’s once functioning brain. RIP John’s Brain
The whole gang goes through a bit of an identity crises and becomes other people for the duration. John remains trapped, screaming to get out.
Jeff uses the bathroom during the recording and then touches Chris with his unwashed hands. Chris chooses to let Jeff Live and also almost gets fired. John is a HORRIBLE MONSTER, hiding under your bed, waiting for you to turn your back in the dark, if only for a second.
Jeff has some dirty thoughts about Nuns and Chris can't get them out of his head.
John once scaled mount Everest with nothing but a My Little Pony Balaclava and a can of Milwaukee's Best.
Jeff clears up some misconceptions about passports and critiques Chris' Chris impression; Chris is wrong about a whole bunch of stuff, but takes it easy anyway;
And John is a saint among men, whose virtue is rivaled only by the magnificence of his beard.
Chris misunderstands some science and never remembers the Monopoly Board. Jeff was raised to be a sadist and…well TBH I stopped listening after he brought up Monopoly. John is better at reading questions than we are at answering them, and once saved 100 kids from a burning schoolbus with nothing but a roll of toilet […]
Chris Gets Emotional Support and is WAY Wrong About Where Octopi Live. Jeff Does Another Glorious Intro and Describes an Owl in Extreme Detail.

Jeff accepts blood sacrifices and has poops like overripe bananas! Chris gets graphic about shower protocol and starts an in-depth conversation about Death! John loves a great banana. That’s it. That’s all that happened.
