Todd is now an instructor at RISE Comedy to fund research into a time machine to go back and teach everything he knows about comedy to his 17 year old self. Until that time he is passing that knowledge and encouragement on to you with his supportive dad energy. The RISE Comedy green room sofa is named after him, the Todd Couch Couch. They got your back.
