Jacquis Neal and Josh Gondelman dream up a few business ideas that probably shouldn’t exist—but are very fun to imagine.

A Casino That Locks Your Phone: Josh pitches a retro-style gambling spot where your phone gets “bricked” at the door, forcing everyone to place bets the old-fashioned way—face to face, with snacks, friends, and just a hint of danger.

The Bowling Lane That Fights Back: Jacquis proposes a bowling lane designed to sabotage anyone who’s too good at the game. Expect flashing lights, surprise obstacles, and a much happier group of friends.

Bad Ideas, Great Company: Along the way, they talk freelance chaos, juggling skills, and why the worst business ideas sometimes sound the most appealing.
