This week the gang talk about cameras that are their own dark rooms. They’re not quite instant cameras but they can produce a final positive image in about ten minutes. Some call them Afghan Street Cameras, Kamra E Faoree, Cuban Polaroids or any number of different names but they all amount to about the same thing: Pure fun for the homemakers of cameras. Hey, maybe we should use that as our new name.
Here are some links to videos about the cameras:

Finally, they issued a challenge to the listeners to produce a camera that self-develops images (film or paper).
Bonus! Here's evidence of Nick's clear insanity. A Wearable Amphibious Autonomous Photo Lab:
