Lots of people stopping by the show this week! Rich and Sarah from Skywalking Through Neverland start their trick-or-treating early. At the end of our conversation, I gave them a special item for a contest that you can enter on their podcast.
The Great MuppetCast Review Contest
It’s The Great MuppetCast Review Contest! Leave a review for the show in iTunes, and you are automatically entered into this month-long contest. The prize winner (selected at random) will win a custom piece of artwork from artist Chaunine Joy, of the Muppet character of their choice! Leave your review today!
Chaunine even pops in to say a quick hello from Utah!
Jim Henson and Philosophy
Tim Dale and Joseph Foy return to the show to talk Muppets. Tim and Joe are the authors of Jim Henson and Philosophy: Imagination and the Magic of Mayhem. We discuss Muppets of the past and present, and dissect the new TV show from an academic perspective.
And of course, we take an audio tour through the latest episode of ABC’s The Muppets, looking at the third episode, “Bear Left, Then Bear Write.”
