Vent Gnome Super Powers
Oct 11, 2023•32 min•Season 7Ep. 43
Episode description
It starts with a mysterious cut behind Eric’s ear and spirals quickly into full-on superhero hypotheticals, mutant sports economics, and a pitch to revive American Gladiators—Canadian style. Todd and Eric explore invisible fantasies, rule-based wizardry, and whether Spider-Man would dominate MLB or just get banned immediately.
- Vent Gnomes: The original midnight menace that predates South Park
- Invisibility as a superpower—childhood dream or adult antisocial fantasy?
- Superpowers in pro sports: Spider-Man swings for the fences while Hulk destroys the dugout
- Bowling, golf, and tennis—where would superheroes thrive, and where would they accidentally obliterate the field?
- The return of the Hersey Hobby Wagon™ with a plan to launch a Mutant Olympics (pending Tim Hortons sponsorship)
- Why America needs a Strongman Cannonball League… and what Darby O’Gill has to do with it
This episode is one part therapy, two parts sci-fi logic debate, and exactly zero parts rational planning. It’s everything you love about the TodCast PodCast—slightly unhinged, wildly nostalgic, and surprisingly visionary.
