The Tonncast

The Tonncast (Episode Fifty-nine)

A lot of people are gung-ho about the universities they attended. Not so much with very special guest Todd Robert Anderson. In this episode, he complains about his alma mater NYU and the recent alumni event he attended at an exclusive Hollywood club where you get to see famous people if you can get through the front door. Also, Todd talks about the strange connection he has to Sarah Silverman. (Music by guy who attended a much, much better school, Adam Blau.)

The Tonncast (Episode Fifty-eight)

Very special guest Todd Robert Anderson talks about his annual physical blood test results. What could be more exciting than that? And as if that is not enough...he talks about his immense lack of popularity! So, pour yourself a glass of wine and take off all your clothes for an intimate twenty minutes with The Tonncast. (Music by Adam Blau, who at the time of this writing may or may not be wearing clothes. We just don't know.)

The Tonncast (Episode Fifty-seven)

In this listicle episode of the Tonncast,  very special guest Todd Robert Anderson takes you through the podcasts he is currently listening to and why he is listening to them. For some reason, a lot of them have to do with movies or sex. And then he seems to listen to some educational ones out of a sense of shame. (Music by Adam Blau, a guy who does not have a podcast where he talks about other podcasts.)

The Tonncast (Episode Fifty-six)

This episode of the Tonncast exists purely so very special guest Todd Robert Anderson can say he finally got around to it. (Music by Adam Blau, who is a much more focused and serious artist.)

The Tonncast with your host Susan Tankersley (Episode Fifty-five)

On this very special episode of the Tonncast, host Susan Tankersley sits down with actor and outspoken critic of the world at large, Todd Robert Anderson. They discuss the importance of the movie Drive, as well as the influence of the television series Magnum, PI. They delve deep into the problems of our modern world, and probably most impactfully discuss the ins and outs of socks. (Music by the understated Adam Blau.)

The Tonncast (Episode Fifty-four)

On this week's episode, very special guest Todd Robert Anderson rants about the MPAA ratings system, parenting, Django Unchained, and tells the heartwarming story of his latest family trip to Disneyland. Stay to the end, and you get to hear him choke up. It's so very sweet. (Music my Mouseketeer Adam Blau.)

The Tonncast (Episode Fifty-three)

Very special guest Todd Robert Anderson talks about his favorite folk-rocker, Martin Sexton. He'll take you on a journey from childhood to middle-age as a fan of this very talented singer-songwriter. He shares a handful of his favorite songs from Mr. Sexton, and admits to having wept openly at one of the man's concerts. What a dork, right? (Music not by Martin Sexton is by this guy named Adam Blau, who is as sexy as they come.)

The Tonncast (Episode Fifty-two)

It's the week of very special guest Todd Robert Anderson's birthday, and he celebrates by sharing stories about and music from his favorite Los Angeles band, The Buddaheads. It's rowdy roadhouse blues as fashioned by frontman Alan Mirikitani aka BB Chung King, and you can't ask for more kick-ass tunes. Todd talks about how he discovered the band, and tells the story of when they played his surprise fortieth birthday party. (Music not by Alan is by Adam Blau, who is not a roadhouse bluesman but he could be if he wanted to, goddammit.)

The Tonncast (Episode Fifty-one)

This is a holiday special. It is holiday times. It is special. (Music by very special composer Adam Blau.)

The Tonncast (Episode Fifty)

In this very special episode of the very special Tonncast, the very special guest Todd Robert Anderson discusses the very special music of the very special Tonncast theme composer. His name is Adam Blau. Todd talks about their friendship, creative collaborations and the ups and downs of being a Hollywood film and television composer. Todd gets most of his facts wrong. For example, he says Adam is "not a singer" while it is clearly exemplified on the podcast that Adam has a wonderful voice. What we think Todd meant was that Adam isn't a "singer-songwriter" by profession like the other musicians Todd has discussed, meaning he doesn't make his living performing live with pop and folk songs. He makes music for film and television primarily. Still, he can write a song and sing it, so technically he is a singer-songwriter. In any event, Todd's heart was in the right place. He doesn't tend to think before he opens his fat mouth. (Producer's note: there are a couple of glitches in the recording, due to a computer acting funny. Apologies. Also, if we have to tell you who composed the music for this episode...maybe you are too stupid to listen to this crap.)
