My name is Todd Hansen and I believe in your story! I've been proving that everyone has a story for decades by grabbing people randomly and asking them to tell me their stories. I did it as a TV anchor and reporter, as a national TV host and now as a podcaster and YouTuber. I still host a TV show. 14 Emmy awards prove the process works, and the longevity of my career doing this proves that people really care to get to know the stories of others. I think the world is a better place when we get to know another human being. So please join me on this journey as I get to know people just like you.

    Episode 9 "A Marvelous Experience" WWII & Korean War Vet

    Episode 9 "A Marvelous Experience" WWII & Korean War Vet

    In this episode, I revisit a story from the past. Years ago I randomly ended up at the door of an old man who I thought was one thing and turned out to be something so much different.  The man in the funny hat turned out to be one of the Greatest Generation.  That wasn't the beginning of his story nor was it the end.  Archie's life was more than service in World War II, as a MASH helicopter pilot, ad agency owner, model or simply the funny old guy who shuffled around town heading to his dishwashing job. Archie left a legacy we can all learn from when challenging times come our way about how to make life a marvelous experience.

    On TV you get to see some of the story.  Now here's more of the story.

    Episode 8 "An Invisible Monster - Coronavirus in Italy"

    This is real. It isn't just the flu.
    I did an interview with someone living in Florence, Italy who has gone through all the thoughts and emotions we did. She knows what is coming for us in the United States. We can prevent it with common sense.
    Please listen to what she says.

    When is the best time to plant a tree? The answer is 20 years ago. But that shouldn't stop you from doing it now. Now is the second-best time to plant that tree!
    We explore this topic with my friend Mike Samuelson who just recently started his own podcast after finding a little inspiration to plant a tree!

    Episode 5 "A Mother's Prayer"

    Episode 5 "A Mother's Prayer"

    A powerful story about a mother who knew something bad was going to happen as her son went to climb a mountain.
    I can't believe it has been 2 years since I've randomly knocked on doors to find a story. I figured it was about time. You can see why I've never thought it was the best use of my time. :)
    The story turned out to be fantastic, as usual.
    We all have mountain to climb and we all have to step off cliffs backwards. How we handle those situations determine who we are as individuals.
