Origin Story is a comedy improv interview show hosted by Toy Wonder (Sean Deringer) and Shadow Sac (Cole Randall), two bumbling, unknown sidekicks, in a world of immensely powerful superheroes. Tired of being underappreciated and forgotten, the two have decided to start a podcast where they interview other hardworking sidekicks, and show their untold side of the story. Join Toy Wonder and Shadow Sac every week as they interview other intense, and often silly, sidekicks from around State City!

    Look, we're sidekicks, but we're people too. Sometimes we don't like walking places. Sometimes we just want to ride a quick taxi there. We get tired too. Things have been crazy! We needed a break anyway. This taxi driver seems pretty cool though. And it finally doesn't smell like pee everywhere. Follow us on Twitter: @the_originstorySend us your questions at: toy2wonder2@gmail.comToy Wonder: Sean DeringerShadow Sac: Cole RandallRed Rocket: Ben Eyers (instagram & twitter @bewiwoeySupercomputer: Callie WebbEdited by: Sean DeringerTheme Song: Thomas Loomis (instagram: @onetaketom)Artwork: Natalie Bartlett
