Old Friends Who've Just Met: A Muppets Podcast

We're not birds, we're a Jug Band! Or, at least, we watched one this week. Jessie and Kellyn get the band back together (ha) to watch the classic Original Henson Holiday Movie: Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas! Come with us as we meet Ma, Emmet, and all their friends (and yes, even those River Bottom Boys). Instagram: @oldfriendswhovejustmetEmail: oldfriendswhovejustmetpod@gmail.comMusic from Pixabay

Welcome, foolish Muppet fans! Jessie and Kellyn cover Disney+'s new "Muppets Haunted Mansion", which is chock full of spooky scary Muppet-y goodness.

Give it a watch, then come back and listen, if you dare....... *dun dun dun....dundun*Instagram: @oldfriendswhovejustmetEmail: oldfriendswhovejustmetpod@gmail.comMusic from Pixabay

Give my regards to month long breaks! Got a new episode with the original queen of Broadway, Ethel Merman.  Kellyn and Jessie are joined by Will Biby, editor extraordinaire, to discuss caftans, Muppet pats, and puppetry at large. On with the show!*NOTE: Kellyn talks about a production of The Steadfast Tin Soldier  at the Goodman Theatre. That's a lie. It was Lookingglass. And she knew it all along. So why did she say the wrong theatre? Who knows. But she's very sorry.*Don't forget to rate and review on iTunes! Be nice!

Everything is great, everything is grand. Jessie and Kellyn discuss Flight of the Conchords, the finer points of what makes a Muppet, and Operation Celebri-nap.  Plus, is this the bloodiest Muppet movie to date?

Warning: there's a fair amount of crying in this episode. Come in, and know me better, man! It's here, the one we've waited for since the beginning! Jessie and Kellyn follow Gonzo - sorry, Charles Dickens - and Rizzo the Rat as they tell the classic tale of Ebenezer Scrooge's redemption. There's little frogs and little bunnies and little rats along the way, as well as candles, LARGE absentminded spirits, and dementors. It feels like Christmas.Instagram: @oldfriendswhovejustmetEmail: oldfriendswhovejustmetpod@gmail.comMusic from Pixabay
