I Will Atone For My Sins (With Avery Trufelman)

No Bad Ideas - A podcast by Long Story Short Productions

Categories:

The Bad Ideas crew is joined by Avery Trufelman, the creator of Articles of Interest, to tackle bad ideas featuring relief funds, online casinos, and busted stereotypical gender roles! In our first bad idea, Sarah brings us the story of a man who received a much more generous Covid relief payment than he was expecting. The gang turns it into a film about a man who is desperately trying (and most failing) to get rid of as much money as he can as quickly as possible. Then, Zach presents a unique marketing tactic: small phones specifically designed to be put in, ahem, hard to reach places. The squad turns it into a story about a scheme to make money from within the walls of a prison, and how it helps the meanest, burliest, most manly inmates in the yard get in touch with their sensitive side.  All of that, plus: highly orchestrated schemes, Werner Herzog, supply chain issues, emotional connections, and butts.  Today's Bad Ideas™:  Idea #1 Idea #2 For more on Avery's work, visit her website.
