17. Scariest Great Ideas

The spookiest episode of What a Great Idea! ever! Kelly and Derrick are bringing you some of the scariest, Indiana Jones --iest places and creatures in the world. In addition, they discuss what Bear Grylls would be scared of. And of course what would a WAGI episode be without somehow getting John Williams in there?!

16. Trees!

This episode is all bark, no bite. When it comes to discussing all things amazing, trees are low hanging fruit. OK, enough bad puns. But if this episode doesn't make you smile at least once, you haven't climbed a tree before, or you've lived under a desert dune your whole life. Kelly and Derrick explore the majestic heights of tree glory. Here's some talking points: * Derrick has an impromptu therapy session while reflecting on trees. * Derrick's weekend trip * One way to guarantee temporary happiness: climb a tree * Trees in the Bible * Kelly and Derrick favorite trees * Mind-blowing fact about the world of trees * AMAZING TREES around the world!!!

13. City Parks

Some love the city. Some love the country. Today, Derrick and Kelly are going where to two become one--city parks! What a great idea.
