A very small guest list

Todd Michael set up a cardboard podcast booth beside the jar of marbles. Todd Glass arrived as producer, carrying a microphone no bigger than a pea. “Today’s guests are the marbles,” Todd Michael announced. The marbles said nothing. This was their first booking, and they were already keeping a mysterious silence.

A beat with a pause

Todd Terry set a tiny record spinning in a quiet shop. Todd Glass brought a turtle who wanted to learn a smooth dance turn. The turtle moved only when the music paused, so every time the record played, it stood still with the focus of a dancer waiting for a very specific cue.

Monsters need handrails

Todd McFarlane opened a sketchbook on a cloud and drew stairs down to a garden. The stairs grew into friendly monsters with curly tails and oversized shoes. Todd Glass brought a charcoal pencil to add handrails, but every monster wanted a different style: one asked for stripes, one for polka dots, and one wanted a rail shaped like a spaghetti noodle.
