Remote Buffet

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

Brainstorming How To Clean Up A Dirty Joke

A brainstorming session on how to clean up a specific adult-themed bit/joke, and a discussion on whether it's even possible. Also: dirty metaphors/innuendo such as "the grand finale" and "the product of the interaction"; "seagulling" and dirty urban legends being made real; using Adam Sandler movies as a barometer of acceptable PG-13 dirtiness

Performer Availability-Booking App

Idea: An app for comedians/performers to coordinate with bookers to schedule gigs, where the performers list their avails in the app, and a set of show bookers (similar to those on "MCN" aka "Michigan Comics Network" on Facebook) browse through and select available performers to book them for their shows. Also: multiple bookers could see that you're available to perform on a given day, and the first one to choose you gets you, so performers don't have to, for exmaple, apply to two weekly Monday shows on alternating Mondays; allowing performers to set availability criteria using custom macros/scripts, such as that they don't want to drive a long distance for a small amount of performance time or pay; info in the app about the performers (clips, bios, warnings from other bookers, etc.) and the venue (free drink tickets, stage props available for improv acts, etc.); the weirdness of standup comedy venues not wanting comedians to wear shorts

Tabletop Game AI Assistant

Idea: An app which uses artificial intelligence (AI) to assist (not replace) the dungeon master and possibly other players in "Dungeons & Dragons" (D&D) and other similar tabletop games. Also: helping the dungeon master by generating maps, NPCs, rooms, quests, etc. before the game and/or on-the-fly during the game, using configured settings, randomization, and the current state of the game (which the AI would know by listening to the game); explaining D&D to newbies (both in this podcast and in the proposed app); using AI to generate a visual display of the current state of the game for all of the players, including the floor plan of the current room, info of the NPCs you're interacting with, etc.; drinking while playing D&D and other tabletop games
