In this episode of No Bad Ideas, an experiment! In an effort to shake things up, the gang has brought not one, not two, but three bad ideas to the table and will try to turn each of them into stories in just ten minutes. How will our heroes cope with a criminal’s job interview, a library full of taxidermic animals, and the perils of pulling over an undercover cop? You’ll just have to listen to find out. Plus, sleep-stealing, the punishment for fracking, yet another deeply traumatizing family movie, and our favorite superhero, Florida Man.

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

The creators of Wolf 359 talk about the unceasing rollercoaster ride of pursuing creative careers in a time... that is now. In a world... that is this one. In a podcast... that you should totally subscribe and listen to.
