    Todd Goes to Walt Disney World: Epcot, Baguettes, and Butter Pockets

    After years of hearing Eric explain Disney like it was both a vacation destination and a legally recognized personality trait, Todd finally goes to Walt Disney World. What starts as a work trip to Orlando turns into Todd’s first real Disney experience, complete with Epcot, buses, baguettes, fish and chips, Guardians of the Galaxy, and the troubling realization that Eric may not have been completely making this stuff up. In this episode: Todd arrives at Disney fully prepared for crowds, chaos, and financial ruin. All-Star Music proves that giant jazz icons and efficient check-in can coexist. Spaceship Earth introduces Todd to the giant golf ball that is secretly full of history. The Soarin’ queue spill becomes an accidental masterclass in washcloth-based crisis management. Fake England finally gives Todd the fish and chips experience real England failed to deliver. France contributes baguettes, butter, and the birth of Butter Pockets. Guardians of the Galaxy delivers Tears for Fears, mild motion sickness, and one important lesson about eating before roller coasters. Eric gets to spend several days proving that his Disney obsession is only mostly concerning. Somewhere between Spaceship Earth, the France pavilion, and a perfectly timed “Everybody Wants to Rule the World,” Todd discovers that Walt Disney World is not just mouse ears, gift shops, and expensive snacks. It is also baguettes. Connect with Todd and Eric: Check out our website at https://todcastpodcast.com/ or send us your ideas via email!

    Todd Goes to Star Wars Land - Galaxy's Edge, Space Mountain, and Blue Milk

    After surviving Epcot, Todd finally arrives at the main event: Star Wars Land. What follows is a full day of Millennium Falcons, stormtroopers, roller coasters, animatronic ghosts, singing aliens, and a growing realization that Disney might have spent an unreasonable amount of money making fake places feel real. In this episode: Todd finally steps into Galaxy's Edge after years of hearing Eric talk about it. The impossible task of acting normal when a full-size Millennium Falcon is suddenly parked in front of you. Rise of the Resistance somehow managing to be a ride, a movie, and a military operation at the same time. Why waiting in line inside a Star Destroyer is surprisingly enjoyable. Blue milk, green milk, and important scientific research into alien beverages. The tragedy of the missing droid parts and the Jawas who may or may not be responsible. A visit to Oga's Cantina, where coaster theft becomes an international incident. Smuggler's Run, Bespin, and the ongoing struggle to keep the Millennium Falcon in one piece. Space Mountain teaches Todd that complete darkness and roller coasters are not always best friends. The PeopleMover continues its campaign to be the greatest attraction nobody can properly explain. Carousel of Progress somehow becoming one of the most unexpectedly delightful experiences of the trip. Why Disney's attention to detail is both impressive and slightly alarming. From wandering the streets of Batuu to eating lunch inside a fake drive-in movie theater, this episode covers the day Disney finally stopped being a concept and became a real place for Todd. The original goal was to prove Eric wasn't completely crazy. The final verdict remains under review.

    Now! That’s What I Call TodCasting: 4 vs 13 - Star Wars Holiday Special vs The Flight of the Dodge Omni

    The bracket continues with one of the strangest matchups yet: a disastrous piece of Star Wars history versus a flying Dodge Omni dream that somehow evolves into a full discussion about teleportation ethics. One episode is a structured roast of one of the worst television specials ever created. The other is two guys accidentally inventing a dystopian sci-fi future while talking about baseball pants. In this episode: A revisit to Spoiling Star Wars: The Holiday Special and why the special somehow gets worse with age.Abby’s introduction to one of the most confusing pieces of Star Wars media ever created.Wookiee conversations, uncomfortable variety show energy, and the ongoing trauma of Life Day.A breakdown of The Flight of the Dodge Omni and how one random dream became a thirty-minute improv session.Flying cars, teleportation test pilots, and why Todd fundamentally does not trust humanity.The horrifying logistics of naked teleportation Starbucks hubs.A comparison between structured review episodes versus completely freeform conversational chaos.Honest discussion about audio quality, old recording setups, and why three microphones never sounded the same.What starts as a normal bracket recap slowly becomes another example of what the TodCast PodCast actually is at its core: two people taking ridiculous ideas far more seriously than necessary. One episode warns you not to watch something. The other warns you not to invent something. Only one moves on.

    The Flight of the Dodge Omni - Tailor’s Version

    What starts as Eric sharing a random dream immediately spirals into a full-scale debate about flying cars, teleportation, government tracking, magical transportation systems, and whether society can be trusted with a third dimension. Spoiler alert: probably not. In this episode: Eric dreams about driving a flying Dodge Omni inspired by Flight of the Navigator.A pickup baseball game in Martins Ferry somehow launches a 45-minute future-tech discussion.Why flying cars sound awesome until you remember other people exist.The horrifying logistics of airborne traffic jams, sky intersections, and people throwing soda cans from 2,000 feet.Disney technology, Spider-Man web shooters, and why Todd does not trust humanity with hover vehicles.The rise of teleportation as the superior transportation option.Teleportation ethics, naked arrival logistics, and the terrifying future of retina-scan Starbucks.How one Dodge Omni dream accidentally creates a dystopian sci-fi universe.From repulsor lift technology and magical sling rings to conspiracy theories about why we “aren’t trying hard enough,” this episode somehow transforms into one of the most detailed conversations ever inspired by a car that should absolutely not be airborne. If you’ve ever wondered whether society is emotionally prepared for flying cars, the answer is probably no. But that won’t stop Eric from trying to invent one.

    Spoiling Star Wars: The Holiday Special - Tailor’s Version

    Todd, Eric, and special guest Abby dive headfirst into one of the strangest television disasters ever broadcast - The Star Wars Holiday Special. What was supposed to be a fun holiday event somehow became 90 uninterrupted minutes of confusion, Wookiee yelling, awkward musical numbers, and Harrison Ford looking like he actively wanted to leave. In this episode: The infamous 20-minute Wookiee conversation that tests everyone’s patience almost immediately.Why the Holiday Special feels less like Star Wars and more like someone filmed a fever dream in a RadioShack.A breakdown of bizarre variety-show performances, awkward comedy sketches, and aggressively seventies television decisions.The introduction of “Life Day,” which somehow feels both deeply important and completely meaningless.Wookiee home life, strange hologram entertainment systems, and what may or may not be space pornography.The first-ever appearance of Boba Fett hidden inside a cartoon that somehow becomes the best part of the special.Why Mark Hamill looks like he wandered in from an entirely different production.A heated debate over whether this is the worst thing ever made… or simply the most confusing.From Bea Arthur singing in a cantina to endless growling conversations that absolutely should have had subtitles, this episode explores every uncomfortable, hilarious, and baffling moment of the Holiday Special. If you’ve never seen The Star Wars Holiday Special, this episode may save you 90 painful minutes. If you have seen it, this is basically group therapy.

    Now! That’s What I Call TodCasting: 3 vs 14 - Seasonings vs Chicago

    March Madness continues (in April, because time is a suggestion), and this one is a clash of eras. Todd and Eric revisit the oldest episode in the bracket versus one of the most downloaded episodes of all time. One is a raw, unfiltered solo drive-time ramble that probably should have stayed in the car. The other is a structured deep dive into a legendary band that somehow convinced Spotify’s algorithm to care. In this episode: A return to Seasonings and the chaotic, stream-of-consciousness origins of the TodCast.Why beard season, flannel season, and random life observations somehow became a full episode.The ongoing conspiracy theory behind Seasonings becoming a surprisingly popular download.A breakdown of Music Ranked: Chicago and how it quietly became a fan favorite.How Spotify’s algorithm may have accidentally done more marketing than Todd and Eric ever have.The evolution of the show from “guy talking to himself in a car” to “two guys pretending this is structured.”A head-to-head comparison using quality, information, and entertainment as the deciding factors.What starts as a simple bracket matchup turns into a look at how the podcast has grown, what works, what absolutely shouldn’t have worked, and why it somehow did anyway. One episode represents the raw beginning. The other represents a moment where things looked slightly more intentional. Only one moves on.

    Music Ranked: Chicago (the band) - Tailor's Version

    Todd and Eric revisit one of the most downloaded episodes in TodCast history with a remastered deep dive into one of the most unique bands of all time. What starts as a simple ranking exercise turns into a full breakdown of a band with multiple identities, shifting sounds, and decades of music that somehow all falls under one name. In this episode: The origins of Chicago and how they helped define the horn-driven rock sound.Why their album naming system makes everything more confusing than it should be.The evolution from classic rock experimentation to full-blown soft rock ballads.The internal band dynamics that led to a major shift in sound and direction.A debate between early-era Chicago vs later-era Chicago and which version actually holds up.How nostalgia plays a role in ranking music and whether it should.From 25 or 6 to 4 to power ballads about undying love, this episode explores what makes Chicago both iconic and divisive depending on when you discovered them. If you’ve ever argued about whether a band “changed too much” or just evolved with the times, this one hits right in that sweet spot.

    Seasonings - Tailor's Version

    Todd goes back to the beginning with a completely unstructured episode that somehow turns into a full exploration of personal “seasons.” What starts as a drive-time ramble with no agenda evolves into a surprisingly thoughtful breakdown of identity, habits, and the rhythms that define everyday life. In this episode: The origin of Beard Season and why October 1 became a personal milestone.High school mustache rules, Navy regulations, and the long road to facial hair freedom.Why shaving your beard creates chaos for everyone around you.The transition from Sweater Season to Flannel Season and what that says about evolving style.The concept of hobby cycles including painting season, reading season, and writing season.A look at early ToddCast energy where anything could become a topic. From wizard costumes and shoe polish hair hacks to long-form reflections on creativity, this episode captures the raw foundation of the podcast before structure, before polish, and before expectations. If you’ve ever found yourself fully committed to something for a season and then suddenly moved on, this episode will feel very familiar.
