Creativity Wasted

Idea: Boarding houses to provide around-the-clock care to babies until they're around 2.5 years old (and potty trained). Also: accidentally creepy parenting book titles, Puritanical diaper penance, is all postpartum depression hormonal or does changing diapers and not sleeping just suck, the biggest jobs program for uneducated people of all time, giving unprepared parents time (3 years) to get their life on track before they have to be parents Originally from Creativity Wasted episode 23 Dustin "Lee" Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma) Ted Moss (twitter.com/TedMossComedy Podcast: https://TEDTALKS2much.com Book: "Look Out...I'm Parenting Here! A Survival Guide for the Single Parent") Recorded at Podcast Detroit (PodcastDetroit.com)

Idea: A stick-like weapon bedazzled with glitter or jewels in order to avoid concealed weapon charges, because it can be legally argued that it's not a concealed weapon if it has an alternate use as a decorative object. Also: if you commit a felony and you have a baseball bat in the trunk, but you don't also have a baseball glove, the police can consider the bat a weapon and give you an additional concealed weapons charge, even if you didn't use the bat (or even take it out of the trunk) during the felony Originally from Creativity Wasted episode 22 Kerry McCabe (facebook.com/kerryalanmccabe) Megan Cottington-Heath (instagram.com/megtasticmeg) Steve Gay (twitter.com/sgaytwo) James Jenkins (Iinstagram.com/jimmygramzwitaz) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma) Recorded at Hard Knocks Grill in Jackson, MI

Idea: A comedy sitcom where a stoner has a Pomeranian dog and a spider monkey, which may or may not talk, depending on whether he's hallucinating.

Idea: A futuristic city made out of movable cubes which can be made to be ultra-lightweight using a vacuum in the upper stories, allowing the buildings to be up to 3 miles high, to fly, and to control the weather (make it rain and stop tornadoes) Originally from Creativity Wasted episode 22 Kerry McCabe (facebook.com/kerryalanmccabe) Megan Cottington (instagram.com/megtasticmeg) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma) Steve Gay (twitter.com/sgaytwo) Recorded at Hard Knocks Grill in Jackson, MI

Idea: A weird and possibly accidentally evil idea for a futuristic economy where shoplifting is not only no longer a crime, it's actually a completely acceptable method of commerce Scott Gaughan ("Free Netflix Online" Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/1ar48A2btUjcZZ7Gcox2Ut?si=CnIg4QqlQEebPfPPJ0s_Zw) Diego Attanasio (twitter.com/DiegoComedy) Kevin Key (instagram.com/kevinjokeskey) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma) Recorded at Broken Knuckle Studio in Waterford, MI (Facebook: Broken Knuckle Studios)

Idea: A conspiracy theory that Donald Trump and Drake are the same person, because Drake songs sound kind of like Trump speeches. Also: an impression of Trump singing a Drake song, questioning whether Trump is a reptilian, questioning whether successful draft-dodging makes you smart and if you'd dodge the draft Scott Gaughan ("Free Netflix Online" Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/1ar48A2btUjcZZ7Gcox2Ut?si=CnIg4QqlQEebPfPPJ0s_Zw) Diego Attanasio (twitter.com/DiegoComedy) Kevin Key (instagram.com/kevinjokeskey) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma) Recorded at Broken Knuckle Studio in Waterford, MI (Facebook: Broken Knuckle Studios)

Idea: A satirical comedy sketch where the story of Jesus's crucifixion is used in TV commercials to sell products like GPS, sports drinks, pickup trucks, and ab rollers Scott Gaughan ("Free Netflix Online" Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/1ar48A2btUjcZZ7Gcox2Ut?si=CnIg4QqlQEebPfPPJ0s_Zw) Diego Attanasio (twitter.com/DiegoComedy) Kevin Key (instagram.com/kevinjokeskey) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma) Recorded at Broken Knuckle Studio in Waterford, MI (Facebook: Broken Knuckle Studios)

Idea: To use leather bondage masks for Coronavirus prevention, because leather masks with shiny silver zippers are stronger (and therefore better) than paper masks and cloth masks. Also: whips to encourage social distancing, "breath play", questioning whether Canadians are too polite for BDSM Scott Gaughan ("Free Netflix Online" Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/1ar48A2btUjcZZ7Gcox2Ut?si=CnIg4QqlQEebPfPPJ0s_Zw) Diego Attanasio (twitter.com/DiegoComedy) Kevin Key (instagram.com/kevinjokeskey) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma) Recorded at Broken Knuckle Studio in Waterford, MI (Facebook: Broken Knuckle Studios)

Idea: A futuristic city which is a single large building made out of a 3D grid of cubes of living/working space which can be added, removed, and shuffled around on demand. Also: eliminating the concept of "landlord" (and Trump's source of income), moving without having to pack, elevators are vertical roads that can be maintained by the city, Wile E. Coyote walls and steampunk themed neighborhoods Originally from Creativity Wasted episode 20 Joel Fragomeni (Podcast: https://joelradio.net) Branden Milsk (twitter.com/BrandenMilsk) Sophia Spagnuolo (twitter.com/SophiaZada) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma) Recorded live at Podcast Detroit (https://www.PodcastDetroit.com)
