We are honored and delighted to have a professional podcasting badass on the show this week, director of The Far Meridian, the voice actor who goes bump in the night, the fabulous Danielle Shemaiah!

We begin, bending over backwards to avoid our shared loathing of mosquitos, and take a story of meddling with gene drives and make it a happier (for us) post-apocalyptic wasteland. Then, we take hostage crisis bring it down with some bad movie angst and a suspense sequence that requires all the President’s men.

Plus: Corporate scientists, archivists from the world before, horrible crapsack universes, the Robert Frost fork in the road, and a simple demand for extreme action.

Today’s Bad Ideas™:

The No Bad Ideas Podcast is the creation of Gabriel Urbina, Sarah Shachat, and Zach Valenti, three writer and artist-types who, in order to stay fresh creatively, have an excuse to hang out with each other once a week, and check in on what they're working on, take a terrible idea they found on the Internet each week and turn it into a compelling narrative. Or as close as they can get in 30 minutes.

If you're someone trying to be creative yourself or even if you just appreciate a good story, you'll enjoy listening to Zach, Sarah, and Gabriel figure out how to make sense of the best (or worst?) absurdities the internet has to offer. We guarantee there have definitely been worse ideas.

No Bad Ideas
