Exit 100: The Road So Far

Buckle up — we’re cruising into a major milestone! Four years and 100 episodes later, Franchise Detours is putting the pedal to the metal with a special celebration that takes you on a high-octane journey through the 16 mega-series we’ve covered so far.

Past and future guests Lauren Robinson of the Beer’d Al Podcast, Darin Lundberg of NostalgiaCast, Ryan Luis Rodriguez of One Track Mind, filmmaker Jackson Smith, Brian Skutle of the Sonic Cinema Podcast, and David Rosen of Piecing It Together make pit stop appearances as we pull over to revisit favorite moments, unforgettable conversations, and what makes these franchises legendary.

Along the way, we'll steer you through reflections on the trip from Episode 0 to now, discussing all 16 mega-series to date in a bracket-style format that leaves one franchise standing. And we'll also announce the first mega-series queued up for 2026.

Whether you’re a seasoned co-pilot or just hopping in for the ride, this episode is all about celebrating the road traveled and mapping out the journey ahead. So fill up your tank, roll down the windows, and enjoy the ride as we commemorate 100 exits to date.
