We’re kicking off March with an historic first: our very first returning guest! Like Taylor Swift pulling in The Dixie Chicks for backing vocals, Emily VanDerWerff, the co-creator of Arden and critic at large for Vox, has made a triumphant return to the No Bad Ideas hot seat.

We begin, however, with an idea of Zach’s, and quickly go from a little red wagon full of smartphones that tricked Google Maps to Emperor Zuckerberg and a sci-fi heist film with a geezer at its heart. Then, Emily brings us an idea you can’t find on any server, because it’s been deleted from Reddit's r/relationships. We’re forced to try to parse the weirdest relationship surprise of all time - and we’re not allowed to make it a spy story. Magic cats may or may not be involved.

Plus: the Facebook gallows, how to get by in France, magical toxoplasmosis, grand gestures in the Himalayas, and the sequel to The Italian Job we’re all owed.

Today’s Bad Idea™:

Idea #1
