Meat Curious
Fresh Meat
10 lifelong carnivores embark on a life changing adventure that forever changes how they consume meat. The adventure begins with a tour of the industrial meat industry. Through firsthand accounts and site visits, they discover the reality of factory farming and consider their relationship to the process. They then embark on a journey to learn how to hunt, kill, butcher, and prepare their own meat. Along the way they are guided by a variety of hunters (indigenous to modern). They are exposed to traditional and sustainable approaches to raising animals. They then learn how to butcher and prepare, with well known chefs, profoundly changing their relationship to the meat they consume.
10 Lifelong vegetarians embark on a personal and culinary adventure where they learn to hunt, kill, and prepare and finally consume meat. A potent mix of curiosity, apprehension, and moral contemplation drive our contestants as they venture into the world of hunting, confronting the reality of taking a life to sustain their own. Their approach is imbued with a sense of respect and gratitude for the animal, understanding the profound sacrifice it represents. Each step in the process, from stalking and capturing their prey to skillfully butchering and preparing the meat, becomes a transformative act of mindfulness, causing them to question their beliefs and reassess the nature of their dietary choices. Ultimately, this newfound understanding serves to deepen their connection to the food they consume, allowing them to be more conscious and conscientious eaters.
groups of 4 come up with games to play with each other. They must fulfill certain criteria and finish in a set amount of time. At the end a group of strangers play the game (maybe kids) and judges— actual game makers decide who wins.

When to Take it Away

Kids from around the world embark on maker challenges with a budget. They have to make something like a nothing board, or build with… ‘m not sure what. But this could highlight cultural differences, and the ways people problem solve in different places. It’d be cool to see how rich kids do things vs poorer kids. Kids in Africa vs. kids in Switzerland. All these places have different things and how could we highlight these things in a way that hleps make the world a better place?

You Are My Solo Show
A format in which a person in therapy for something specific works with a writer to create a script for a solo show based on their life. We see the writer and the person going through the process of writing the script and working through the impacted emotions and stories of their life. The script is then given to an actor who acts our the solo show for a studio audience. The individuals in the audience then have to guess which story goes with with person. It’s about how we don’t know what each other have gone through and how seeing your life reflected back to you can give you perspective you didn’t know you needed. I imagine it would light a fire under the person’s ass as well.
Actually— it’d be great to see the person work with the actor and give them coaching. Then it’s performed with their seal of approval.
