Rank Ideas Chris Endrey and Nick Delatovic

The premium way to prevent people from storming your fortress, is to surround it with a deep trench that you fill with water. I'm sorry if this is news to you.
If you think that this episode is looking at moats as a mere metaphor, then I invite you to raid our podcast HQ. But I have to warn you, you're going to need to bring a big bridge with you. Because there's a moat.

It's incredible to think that after all these years, the Rank Ideas podcast is just four trophies away from our feted EGOT. While we wait, we are lucky to have the greatest award of all - friendship. And this old soccer trophy I have that says 'best podcast co-host' in Nick's handwriting.
Are awards generally any good though? Listen up to know definitively!

I wonder if there's been a single year in the history of our species where a person hasn't taken the life of another. It would have to have been a year when there weren't many of us around. I hope we can get another such year soon! 2024 is already out, so it'll have to be 2025.
In the meantime, is the idea of murder useful in our quest for good life? 
Only time will tell. Time, and this episode of your favourite podcast, Rank Ideas!

Damn. That doesn't sound so good. Good thing the thesaurus doesn't have much of a role in modern society. Especially not in the Rank Ideas HQ, which doesn't even have a bookshelf. Purple monkey dishwasher.

Every episode we release these days is about generalisation. Same must go for every podcast. That's new media for you.
Next you'll be telling me that all new media is podcasts.
Which, also, is correct.
