  • Show #224 – September 23, 2012

    I’m very happy to welcome listener Millie Tirk to the show to talk about her relationship to Sesame Street. No, she’s not a puppeteer, nor have you ever probably met her. But you’ll meet her this week on the show, and by the end you’ll be so glad you did.

    Thank you so much for downloading and listening this and every week! It means the world to me that you’re here. For any questions or comments concerning the Muppets, The MuppetCast, or anything else, email me@muppetcast.com. Follow the show on Facebook and Twitter, and tell your friends about the show too!

    Have a great week!

  • Show #220 – August 29, 2012

    This week’s MuppetCast is a very full show! New friends and old friends: Kim Kennedy is a phenomenal artist very new to podcasting and Muppet online fandom, and Nicholas Lemon is an old hand around here, and he returns this week with a huge new development in his professional life!

    Kim Kennedy (@kimkennedyart) is currently entered in the Jim Henson Company Fraggle Rock artwork contest being held at Talenthouse (click to view & vote on entries). She’s an Ohio native like myself, and also Joe Hennes, and she comes to The MuppetCast as practically brand-new to the wider Muppet online fan community. Tweet her this week and say hi!

    Nicholas Lemon‘s career as a puppeteer continues to develop, as he has a huge new project to announce! He is currently putting everything together to launch an all-new TV show on Canadian television, and yes, he’s looking for puppeteers! He’s also looking for writers, designers, etc. Email Nicholas if you’re interested, he’d love to hear from you! Along with talking specifically about the TV show, we discuss a myriad of topics, including what’s really needed to “make it” in the entertainment business, as a puppeteer or anything else.

    Presenting a new experimental segment: The Muppet Musical Alphabet! There are so many wonderful songs that it’s impossible to include them all, but as we continually find new and interesting ways to pay tribute to Jim Henson and the Muppets, one of the very best ways to do so is in song.

    Congratulations to Copper Pot Pictures (@Copper_Pot) on reaching their goal of $100,000 in their kickstarter campaign! Muppet fans everywhere heard the call and acted to make “I Am Big Bird” a reality. It will undoubtedly be an amazing documentary of a truly amazing man, Caroll Spinney.

    JD Hansel has started a new Muppet fan podcast! Yaaayyyy!!! And it’s really, really good! Even more Yay! Check out 11-Point Collar, and the special guest on his most recent episode is yours truly. We had a great time talking, so don’t miss this show, and subscribe in iTunes!
