Why do we sometimes get greedy?

Is there good envy?

When does it help to get really angry?

Why do we indulge in gluttony and indulge in lust?

Every week we tackle one of the seven deadly sins.

In the fifth episode we talk to the author and cartoonist Stefanie Sargnagel about why she liked the lockdowns, why laziness is sometimes good for the psyche and why nobody should have to work more than 20 hours a week.

Anger, envy, greed, lust, arrogance, indolence: with other prominent guests, including Father Anselm Grün, Sebastian Fitzek and Sawsan Chebli, we are looking for the origin of these feelings and behaviors - and we try to recreate the emotional states of emergency to understand a little better.

Our therapeutic companion is the neuroscientist Dr.

Thorsten Kienast.

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