Why do we sometimes react so impulsively?

Is there good envy?

When does it help to be really angry?

Why do we indulge in gluttony and indulge in lust?

Every week we tackle one of the seven deadly sins.

With Sawsan Chebli, Drangsal, Stefanie Sargnagel, Dennis Gansel and other prominent guests, we are looking for the origin of these feelings and behaviors - and try to understand our emotional states of emergency a little better.

Our therapeutic companion is the neuroscientist Dr.

Thorsten Kienast, who reveals his favorite sin to us in the pilot episode.

Together with our guests, we always think on Thursdays about how to make the most of our small sins and big flaws.

In episode one we talk to the bestselling author Sebastian Fitzek, whose psychological thriller is selling millions of times, about anger: It's about body parts, freaking out in traffic and the best strategies to keep his anger in check.
