  • Ep.5: Lucky, Loved and a Little in Front
    Jul 8 2026

    Send your ‘what if’, ‘would you rather’ and ‘if you could’ scenarios for the chance for them (and maybe even you) to appear on future episodes

    In this episode of No Good Options, Darren, Sam and Pete discuss whether they'd want to see exactly how much everyone likes them, imagine a world where every luck-based superstition suddenly becomes real, and debate whether it would be better to stop time or see two minutes into the future.

    Along the way, the conversation drifts into disastrous first dates, rabbit farming, magpies and the moral dilemma of time travel. As always, what starts as three simple hypothetical questions quickly descends into the usual overthinking, and unintended consequences.

  • Ep.2: Superman, Rhymes and a Gladiator Duck
    Jun 10 2026

    Send your ‘what if’, ‘would you rather’ and ‘if you could’ scenarios for the chance for them (and maybe even you) to appear on future episodes

    In this episode of No Good Options, Darren, Sam and guest Kara discuss what they would do if they suddenly gained Superman's powers but knew anyone in the world could take them away at any moment. They also debate whether a world filled only with nursery rhymes would be better than a world with no music at all, before facing off against one of the internet's most enduring questions: would you rather fight one horse-sized duck or one hundred duck-sized horses?

    Along the way, a baby joins the team, the conversation drifts into pizza delivery, superheroes, nursery rhyme economics, giant eggs, pet ducks, and several deeply questionable survival strategies.

    Jun 10 2026

    Send your ‘what if’, ‘would you rather’ and ‘if you could’ scenarios for the chance for them (and maybe even you) to appear on future episodes

    In this episode of No Good Options, Darren, Sam and Kara debate which domain they'd choose if they were given the chance to become a god, try to work out the practical consequences of sneezing random animals into existence, and face a choice between a single-use superpower or the lifelong ability to summon a very loyal, and surprisingly controversial wasp.

    Along the way, they discuss power-hungry deities, cults disguised as religions, endangered-animal restaurants, exploding blue whales, aggressive sneeze-generated lions, shape-shifting dragons, super-intelligence, and whether a single wasp might secretly be the most powerful superpower of all.
