Welcome to Episode 30! The gang celebrates this completely arbitrary milestone by picking three awful ideas to throw at each other for ten minutes each. First, Sarah challenges the boys to see what they can make of the power of free beer. Then, Zach clues us all into a possible supernatural conspiracy in the halls of New Zealand’s government. And finally, Gabriel gifts Zach and Sarah with a completely legitimate golden ticket and its $500 price tag. Plus Gabriel’s Australian accent, Zach's cover of Twisted Sister, and Sarah's desire to shoehorn kegs into all the action sequences.

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.
