Can cost reducers lessen overload cost in MTG?
From my experience, it really depends on the wording of the cost reducer card. Some cards specify 'the cost to cast spells' which includes alternative costs like overload, while others may not. Always double-check the interactions!

Yes, cost reducers can definitely make your overload spells cheaper in MTG. If you've got a card that reduces the cost of spells, it applies to all parts of the spell, including the overload cost. So if you're looking to zap your opponents with a cheaper overload, stack up on those reducers!
Nope. Overload costs don't get a discount. Overload is an alternative cost and most cost reducers specify they reduce the mana cost, not alternative costs. Read the cards carefully!
