Creativity Wasted

Idea: Sports broadcasters who act like normal sports fans who drink, curse, and scream in excitement. Also: drunk guy "facts" instead of nerdy sports encyclopedia stats, announcers rooting for a specific team if they want to, Joe Rogan's fight companions but for the NFL, using codenames for teams and players if the NFL won't allow you to act as a sportscaster on a livestream on the Internet Originally from Creativity Wasted episode 32 Mike Ball (twitter.com/IamMikeBall) Markus Olind (twitter.com/BeardVonMarkus) Andrew Yang (instagram.com/ndrw.yang) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma) Recorded at Podcast Detroit (https://PodcastDetroit.com)

Idea: A cheap phone-like device which only communicates using Bluetooth or point-to-point WiFi with friends, primarily for social networking of juicy gossip/media that you don't want on the Internet. Also: a new category of slower but more secure social media posts/messages, posts/messages bouncing from friend-to-friend and acknowledgements bouncing back, having a different "socialburn" device for each of your social cliques, a shockingly evil use of this device Originally from Creativity Wasted episode 31 Diego Attanasio (twitter.com/DiegoComedy) Justin Covington (twitter.com/JCov1 ) Bret Hayden (twitter.com/ComedyRumble) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma) Recorded at Podcast Detroit (https://www.PodcastDetroit.com)

Idea: To make Lego versions of all movies (because the first two Lego movies were so awesome). Also: Lego Citizen Kane, Lego 13 Going on 30, a Lego Instagram filter for all existing movies, Lego standup comedy; a real-life Lego person (a guy in a Lego costume) would be terrifying Originally from Creativity Wasted episode 31 Diego Attanasio (twitter.com/DiegoComedy) Justin Covington (twitter.com/JCov1 ) Bret Hayden (twitter.com/ComedyRumble) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma) Recorded at Podcast Detroit (https://www.PodcastDetroit.com)

Idea: a mid-2000's-MTV-style talk show which interviews college kids returning to their dorm building late at night about their night out (or whatever else they decide to talk about). Also: drunk college kids describing crazy parties, sometimes you get Fresh Air and sometimes you get Jerry Springer, an improvised mock interview which might appear on the show Originally from Creativity Wasted episode 31 Diego Attanasio (twitter.com/DiegoComedy) Justin Covington (twitter.com/JCov1 ) Bret Hayden (twitter.com/ComedyRumble) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma) Recorded at Podcast Detroit (https://www.PodcastDetroit.com)

Idea: A car which requires you to be texting the entire time you drive it. Also: waiting to check your texts until you're driving, questioning whether you'd be allowed to drive if you didn't have friends to text, texting at parties to cope with social anxiety, autonomous cars forcing you to text if you're drunk to keep you from trying to drive Originally from Creativity Wasted episode 31 Diego Attanasio (twitter.com/DiegoComedy) Justin Covington (twitter.com/JCov1 ) Bret Hayden (twitter.com/ComedyRumble) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma) Recorded at Podcast Detroit (https://www.PodcastDetroit.com)

Idea: An app which runs on "smart glasses" and allows you to view the most recent social media post(s) of whoever you're looking at. The primary purpose is to see if you're compatible with them (or see if they're crazy) before flirting with them. Also: the TV show "You" and questioning whether the app is creepy, altering your flirting strategy based on their social media, we each share our most recent tweet and discuss whether they'd discourage women from flirting with us Christian Royce (twitter.com/ChristianRoyce) David Sutherland (twitter.com/skrtskrtsuther1) Travis Tehlirian (youtube.com/channel/UClsd_pJ1TEjst4C5pva1nzQ) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma) Recorded at Broken Knuckle Studio in Waterford, MI (Facebook: Broken Knuckle Studios)

Idea: A comedic murder mystery play similar to the movie "Clue" which takes place in a racially-diverse car dealership during a big car sale. Also: your coworkers at the car dealership are being killed off but you don't run away or call the police because their deaths mean that you'll get more sales commissions, the worst customers at a used car dealership are white women who are retired schoolteachers Originally from Creativity Wasted episode 30 Bree Pratt formerly Brian Pratt Joe Morgan (instagram.com/jomoworx4u ) Peggy Beattie (twitter.com/Peggy4859) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma)

Idea: A drinking establishment which serves plain alcohol and contains a self-serve buffet of drink mixers, with a guidebook of common drink recipes. Also: beer snobs judgmentally watching you mix your drink, saving money on drinks by not having to pay a bartender, the "bar" is a physical barrier to block drunk people from stealing alcohol, the weirdness of drinking laws Originally from Creativity Wasted episode 30 Bree Pratt formerly Brian Pratt Joe Morgan (instagram.com/jomoworx4u ) Peggy Beattie (twitter.com/Peggy4859) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma)

Idea: A musical remake of the 1985 teen movie "The Breakfast Club". Also: questioning whether the 80s "goth" and "burnout" stereotypes from the movie are still relevant, casting the burnout kid from the 80s movie as the stuffy principle in the musical remake, making the audience of the musical sit in uncomfortable school desks like they're in detention with the cast Originally from Creativity Wasted episode 30 Bree Pratt formerly Brian Pratt Joe Morgan (instagram.com/jomoworx4u ) Peggy Beattie (twitter.com/Peggy4859) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma)

Idea: To build a moon colony using remote-control robots piloted by uneducated factory workers. Also: generational space penis envy, giving uneducated people jobs controlling remote-control moon robots to keep them from revolting and destroying society, Elon Musk's AI-based robot built Mars colony might lead to the AI-based robot apocalypse but a remote-control-based robot built moon colony might help us merge with machines and save us from the AI-based robot apocalypse Originally from Creativity Wasted episode 30 Bree Pratt formerly Brian Pratt Joe Morgan (instagram.com/jomoworx4u ) Peggy Beattie (twitter.com/Peggy4859) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma)
