Creativity Wasted is a podcast where a group of creative people get together, and we each share an idea that we're not planning on pursuing in real life, such as an invention idea that's outside our area of expertise, a futuristic sci-fi movie idea, or an evil prank idea. And rather than just letting the idea quietly slip away, we get some fun out of it by joking about it together.

    Abolish The Nickel But Keep The Penny (Scott Sviland)

    Abolish The Nickel But Keep The Penny (Scott Sviland)

    Idea: For the US to save money by no longer making nickels, but to keep making pennies, because prices ending in .99 are cool, and you can just use five pennies instead of a nickel. Also: keeping pennies because Lincoln (who's on the penny) is better than Jefferson (who's on the nickel); getting annoyed by parking meters which require apps or don't take pennies; destroying Scott's pep by not agreeing with him about the nickel thing Shilpa Rege (facebook.com/shilparege instagram.com/shilparege) Scott Sviland (instagram.com/allergy_probs facebook.com/scott.sviland) Devarron Thomas (facebook.com/devarron instagram.com/skinnyfatdude1) Chase Richard (linktr.ee/imchaserichard youtube.com/@dogcomicproductions) Tom Walma (https://creativitywasted.com twitter.com/thomaswalma twitch.tv/gameymcfitness) This podcast is part of Planet Ant Podcasts (https://planetantpodcasts.com) This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

    Themed Boy-Girl Scouts (Tom Walma)

    Themed Boy-Girl Scouts (Tom Walma)

    Idea: To combine Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts and then divide it into themes, such as apocalypse survival scouts, videogame/music/art/sport scouts, space scouts, mechanic scouts, etc. Also: an embarrassing childhood scout-related incident; teaching things in school vs. in scouts; laundering money and/or unloading counterfeit money by buying Girl Scout cookies Jason Thompson (instagram.com/jason_thompson_comedy youtube.com/@TAMMpON) Tom Walma (https://creativitywasted.com twitter.com/thomaswalma twitch.tv/gameymcfitness) This podcast is part of Planet Ant Podcasts (https://planetantpodcasts.com) This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

    Loophole Finder App (Jason Thompson)

    Loophole Finder App (Jason Thompson)

    Idea: An app to help you find loopholes to bypass rules, save money, commit crimes and avoid going to prison, etc. Also: you could either actively search for loopholes, or it could always run and use AI to be like a "devil on your shoulder" and suggest loopholes as you go about your day; letting you know if a loophole has been "closed" i.e. will no longer work; using loopholes to obtain medicinal THC for Crohn's disease; preparing to perform in possibly the worst idea for a standup comedy show of all time Jason Thompson (instagram.com/jason_thompson_comedy youtube.com/@TAMMpON) Tom Walma (https://creativitywasted.com twitter.com/thomaswalma twitch.tv/gameymcfitness) This podcast is part of Planet Ant Podcasts (https://planetantpodcasts.com) This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

    "I Get It" Augmented Reality Relationship Assistant (Sarah Marchi)

    "I Get It" Augmented Reality Relationship Assistant (Sarah Marchi)

    Idea: An augmented-reality app that develops a personality model of your partner and constantly listens to and watches them, and uses AI to predict how to you should respond to their questions and to their emotional needs in order to keep them happy. Also: displaying a list of options of what you should do, along with percentage certainties of each option, and reasons why; your partner's AR glasses could be measuring their vitals (heart rate,, hormones, etc.) all day and transmitting it to your AR glasses for them to show you a gauge of their estimated level of anger before you interact with them; parents and teenagers using the AR relationship assistant app, and why it might not work; if you get used to the peace and understanding that the AR relationship assistant provides and then the software crashes, you might immediately go at each other in chaotic rage like two rabid squirrels trapped in a sack Sarah Marchi (instagram.com/smartimarchi) Jason Thompson (instagram.com/jason_thompson_comedy youtube.com/@TAMMpON) Calvin G Baker (instagram.com/calvinbakercomedy) Tom Walma (https://creativitywasted.com twitter.com/thomaswalma twitch.tv/gameymcfitness) This podcast is part of Planet Ant Podcasts (https://planetantpodcasts.com) This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

    Weather Gambling (Calvin G Baker)

    Weather Gambling (Calvin G Baker)

    Idea: An app for gambling on the weather. Also: a racing-themed gambling game on when a storm will arrive and a dart-themed gambling game on where lightning will strike; the mob corrupting the weatherman and causing him to lie during the weather forecast; predicting rainbows and a PSA warning people of the dangers of car accidents from watching rainbows while driving; elderly women dominating weather gambling by using weather-predicting birds and/or sensing the weather with their achy joints Sarah Marchi (instagram.com/smartimarchi) Jason Thompson (instagram.com/jason_thompson_comedy youtube.com/@TAMMpON) Calvin G Baker (instagram.com/calvinbakercomedy) Tom Walma (https://creativitywasted.com twitter.com/thomaswalma twitch.tv/gameymcfitness) This podcast is part of Planet Ant Podcasts (https://planetantpodcasts.com) This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

    Remote Buffet (Tom Walma)

    Remote Buffet (Tom Walma)

    Idea: A buffet where you order your food by watching a live video feed (while you're at a drive-thru or using an app) and telling a worker who's at the buffet what foods to grab. Also: using robots to scoop the food and/or deliver the food; having it count calories as they scoop, and using the remote buffet for all of your meals to ensure portion control to lose weight; drive-thru liquor stores using "growlers" and other refillable containers to buy the exact quantity of alcohol that you want; an embarrassing childhood buffet incident at Ponderosa Steakhouse Lisa Green (instagram.com/lisagreencomedy facebook.com/depottowncomedy) Todd Garvey (facebook.com/todd.garvey.716) Rio Riojas (beacons.ai/drdecide cornbreadbeans.buzzsprout.com/share) Tom Walma (https://creativitywasted.com twitter.com/thomaswalma twitch.tv/gameymcfitness) This podcast is part of Planet Ant Podcasts (https://planetantpodcasts.com) This podcast is powered by Pinecast.
