Slugs.The worst of all the garden creatures.Slimy. Slithery. Leaving gross trails all over the place. Ugh.This week Corinne has written to us to ask whether we could start up a business to deal with these pests.And honestly our business proposals couldn't be more politically different.Thanks Corinne.If you have a problem you want us to solve with an innovative business then please drop us a line at brainsontheoutside@gmail.comKeep your Brains on the Outside xoxo
Metal detecting is such a mixed bag. Finding cool stuff is undoubtedly amazing but having to dig things up all the time is not only a drag it's also inaccessible.Listener Kat has messaged us this week to ask whether we could dream up a business that brings metal detecting to more of the population while also making the boring bits well... less boring.Thanks so much Kat!If you have a problem you want us to solve with an innovative business then please drop us a line at brainsontheoutside@gmail.comKeep your Brains on the Outside xoxo
Two factor authentication? More like EW factor authentication. Nobody likes all the hoops you have to jump through in order to log into your bank, your email, your social network of choice or the Warhammer website these days and this week our listener and long time friend of the show, Elliott, has asked us to solve this problem once and for all. Thanks so much Elliott!If you have a problem you want us to solve with an innovative business then please drop us a line at brainsontheoutside@gmail.comKeep your Brains on the Outside xoxo
Andrew done goofed today and accidentally recorded the whole episode without turning his nice mic on. He is very sorry about this - please forgive him Aside from just having to live through it, jet lag is something that no one has a solution to. Setting your watch as you get on the plane or rubbing your feet on the carpet, just don't work. Andrew's new app to send a herald in your place and Alex's plane replacement aim to fix that.Thank you to our mystery listener for sending in such a high-altitude problem.

Losing your glasses robs you of the thing you really need to find your glasses - your ability to see.

Hayfever sucks. It's nothing like nightfever or that fever that you can only cure with more cowbell. It just stinks. You feel terrible but you're not actually ill and you don't have an actual fever and nobody really feels that sorry for you. It's the worst.After an email from a very sniffly listener, Alex and Andrew decided to tackle this problem head on. Have a listen and see whether shrink wrapping yourself or moving to Arrakis or one of the many, many other innovative ideas our creative duo kick out Is your favourite.Thank you Sam for sending in such a sneeze-inducing problem.

So much of our infrastructure is wasted most of the day. Once it gets to 5pm offices, opticians, chocolatiers, EVERYWHERE, closes. Even the humble ice rink closes. But isn't this a waste of potential? A failure of imagination? Surely, there is a way of making money in an ice rink at 2am?Thank you to Gary for sending in such a wet problem.

Since Andrew and Alex are heading out on their summer holidays we are here with a shorter (but still just as innovative) episode. This week we play a quick round of the Clickhole game Business Walrus, to come up with some new/exciting/radical/disruptive business ideas!
