Dumb Pitches

Monica is joined by comedian and podcaster Kelsey Cook (The Tonight Show, Comedy Central) and in a magnesium-induced spiral she decides to bring back Tamagotchi in order to give them drugs and see what happens.

Monica is joined by comedian and actor Arlo Weierhauser (Epix, Disney) and they pitch us a full list of ideas in 3 minutes allowing Monica to say “what???” for almost everyone. Then they dive deep into some ideas that even Arlo doesn’t know what they mean. You’ll have to listen to find out

Monica is joined by comedian and author Sarah Colonna (Netflix, Showtime, NY Times Best Seller) as she pitches and then fully fleshes out a crime novel about a female detective in the Boston Homicide Unit named Loraina Rigatoni.

Monica is joined by comedian Dave Waite (Comedy Central, Epix) who has an incredible range of dumb pitches. From city planning to the darkest reboot of "Mr. Ed" possible... all the way to gun control. Dave brings us on a journey inside his head and it is a roller coaster.

Monica is joined by comedian and Guy Fieri advocate, Shane Torres (Conan, Comedy Central ) and sets a record for most bad ideas in an episode. He’s an inventor! Ideas like the reverse microwave and broomstick basketball. Shane is also convinced that the camera phone was in fact his idea but his efforts were thwarted by manufacturing costs and not knowing anything about tech at all. It’s a great ep...

Monica is joined by comedian and cat joke sensation Zoltan Kaszas (Dry Bar, FOX) and we have our first bad script idea and it is bad. A young Zoltan spends six hours one night after a show frantically writing a script about a friendly pimp, with "less-than-attractive sex workers" who he offers to blind people. A sitcom? A movie? We don’t know because it’s only 13 pages. Is this the worst idea we’v...

Monica is joined by comedian and viral tweeter Irene Tu (Take My Wife, Vulture) and they work as a team to build the worst possible idea to take out Amazon and Jeff Bezos.

Monica is joined by singer-songwriter Kylie Rothfield (The Voice, NBC Songland) as they take a deep dive into a fundraiser Kylie put on that promised Ellen DeGeneres and Dave Matthews but delivered none of that.

Monica is joined by Comedian and Board Game Creator Grant Lyon (Comedy Central, SyFy) and they dive into some of the worst sketch ideas Grant has had and even though they were with the Groundlings, they would get him canceled today. Then we decide if GoPro camera comedy is a good idea from the perspective of the comedian, we’re not sure it is.

Monica is joined by David Gborie (Conan, AFE) and he gives us some of the worst show ideas imaginable. Why wouldn’t you want to go to see live entertainment and then be surprised with having to perform that entertainment yourself? Or maybe free beer will cure everything?

Monica is joined by Bring Your Own Tools Host and creator Brent Gentling. After 20 years in construction, Brent is now a full-time DIY construction YouTuber.
