Podcasts about Fraggle Rock

This week we dive into the world of the weird and wild with the twists and turns of Labyrinth! We give you all the Jim Henson love you could ask for, connect this movie to Dark Crystal, and cue listeners in on what's down the pike for Labyrinth lovers. But beyond that, this is a movie that Rach tries desperately to understand what the hell is happening, and Ty spends over an hour grappling with some of the most enticing chemistry in movie history between leads who are thirty years apart. And they both can't stop staring at a certain accentuated codpiece. This ain't your father's Fraggle Rock. Welcome to Labyrinth!

Welcome to the Summers Off squad's first Vidcast!!! We will do a few of these each season, although the majority of our releases will be audio only. Curious how much Ty outkicked his coverage by marrying Rach? Intrigued by how much physical comedy they utilize since they bump their mics so often? This is your chance!

Today on the show, Bryan and Bedroth are taking a hard left turn away from the Mushroom Kingdom and diving headfirst into the wide, wonderful, and occasionally chaotic world of non-Mario Kart kart racers.

In which Wembley tries to get revenge on Boober for scaring him, with explosive consequences! PLUS: Very special guest, Fraggle Rock writer Jocelyn Stevenson! The real life psychodrama that inspired this episode. We envy Marjory's lack of a skeleton. More platonic affection between male characters! Wembley and Boober in the Land of Having-Blown-Up. But what about the armadillos??

IT'S TIME TO WATCH THE MUPPETS! This week we chat about the Jim Henson's Creature Shop. Distracted rants include but are not limited to Free Comic Book Day, bagels, Jennifer Barnhart , Saturday Night Live UK, FIFA World Cup 2026, The Dark Crystal Trading Cards, and much more!"Jim Henson's Creature Shop is the celebrated creative hub where award-winning artists and makers have created hundreds of the world's most famous puppet characters including stars from Fraggle Rock, The Muppet Show, Sesame Street, Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas, and many more. New York City is the original and longest home to the workshop and specializes in the renowned Henson style of puppets and walkaround characters."Follow us:tiktok.com/@ittwtmInstagram.com/ittwtm

A puppet maker and voice actor known for his work as one of the principle Muppet members, performing characters like Gonzo the Great, Dr. Bunsen Honeydew, Beauregard, Hoot and Waldorf. He joined Jim Henson's Muppet team in 1973 and has remained a key performer on many projects including The Muppet Show, Fraggle Rock, and Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas.

In which Pa Gorg enlists Junior to help him fix a hole in the roof and has to face his fear of heights. PLUS: Very special guest, Fraggle Rock writer Robert Sandler! Jolly stealing! A revolt on set? Junior's union of one! We have Gaudí's Sagrada Família to thank for this episode. Who came up with “Touché, soufflé”?

Anne Hathaway wanted a certain kind of person on set for The Devil Wears Prada 2. Which means she wanted a certain kind of person NOT on set for The Devil Wears Prada 2. But, you be the judge. The Left, once again, is insisting that all violence comes from the political right despite the fact that they have to twist themselves into knots to get there. Let's see how much the Left has done since Trump's reelection. Lee Zeldin faced off in Congress in an epic battle with the Trash Heap from Fraggle Rock. We're sorry. We're being told that's Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro. Our mistake.

Jim and Lauren follow the winding path of Labyrinth as it turns 40, exploring how a film that underperformed in 1986 became one of the most beloved cult classics of the home video era - and how its legacy nearly intertwined with Disney in a much bigger way. In this episode of I Want That Too, we connect the dots between Jim Henson's ambitious fantasy film, its surprising international success, and the long road that led Disney to acquire the Muppets - but not Labyrinth. Along the way, we look at the massive 40th anniversary merch push and what it says about the power of nostalgia-driven consumer products. NEWS • Disney Consumer Products wins big at North America's Toy Fair, taking home Doll of the Year for the American Girl Moana collection and Plush Toy of the Year for the interactive Stitch • How upcoming theatrical releases - including The Mandalorian and Grogu, Toy Story 5, Moana (live-action), and Spider-Man: Brand New Day - are shaping Disney's 2026 merchandise strategy • A new Haunted Mansion wedding venue debuts at Disneyland as Disney Fairy Tale Weddings celebrates its 35th anniversary • Disney unveils a 35th anniversary light-up wedding gown featuring 500 embedded lights and 35 programmable lighting effects • Labyrinth kicks off its 40th anniversary celebration with anniversary screenings, a 60-city concert tour, new collectibles, and specialty footwear collaborations FEATURE • Why Labyrinth struggled at the box office in 1986 despite an A-team creative lineup that included George Lucas and David Bowie • The international box office story that softened the blow - and helped build the film's cult following • How Labyrinth's disappointing domestic performance factored into Jim Henson's decision to sell his company • The original 1989 Disney acquisition deal that would have given the Mouse the entire Henson film library - including Labyrinth and The Dark Crystal • Why the Henson family ultimately retained key IP like Labyrinth, Fraggle Rock, and The Dark Crystal when Disney finalized its Muppets purchase in 2004 • The newly announced Labyrinth sequel in development at TriStar Pictures and what it signals about the brand's enduring power HOSTS • Jim Hill - IG: @JimHillMedia | X: @JimHillMedia | Website: JimHillMedia.com • Lauren Hersey - IG: @lauren_hersey_ | X: @laurenhersey2 FOLLOW • Facebook: JimHillMediaNews • Instagram: JimHillMedia • TikTok: JimHillMedia SUPPORT Support the show and access bonus episodes and additional content at Patreon.com/JimHillMedia.

Summary:  In this first episode of the year, the guys crack open the idea of what it means to be new—not just with gym memberships and resolutions, but deep in the rewiring of old patterns, assumptions, and emotional blind spots. Dan kicks things off by admitting his old “default setting” was to walk in the door wondering what he'd done wrong—proof that sometimes the battlefield is the hallway between the garage and the living room. From there, Jeremy confesses his own default: being right about everything. But a surprising comment from his son at a hockey game (“There's so much more going on than what's on TV”) hits him like a puck to the head and opens up a whole new way of seeing relationships. Kevin brings in the pastor's line, “Do you want to be right, or do you want to win?”—and discovers that relational victory doesn't always mean keeping score. Dan, meanwhile, reflects on curiosity as an antidote to assumption, while Jeff learns that geology may rock, but people matter more. Between dad jokes about rock stars, cul-de-sacs, and Fraggle Rock sing-alongs, the group lands somewhere between reflection and revelation: Becoming aware of your patterns.Accepting feedback without self-defense.Taking action toward connection, not correction.  By the end, they circle back to hope. If yesterday was about living on autopilot, this year is about choosing manual drive. “Participating in my own discovery,” Dan quips, “gives me the opportunity to participate in my own recovery.” So whether you're trying to read a face, repair a marriage, or just survive mornings before coffee, this conversation reminds you—every default can be rewritten. Pull Quotes “There's so much more going on than what's on the screen.”“Do you want to be right, or do you want to win?”“Participating in my own discovery gives me the opportunity to participate in my own recovery.” #justtheguys #danholmes #actuallyautistic #neurodiversecoupletips #neurodiverse men 

It's never dull when I drop round Tony's, even during Dry January, and this session was no exception. After chowing down on sushi and sashimi, fancy fellows that we are, we got down to serious discussions encompassing Fraggle Rock, 1980s "wrestling" in the UK, the new American health directives on alcohol, how I happened into a random Miracle Christmas pop-up bar in the wilds of New Jersey, and then (because, as a drinks writer, Tony gets sent unholy amounts of stuff), we created an infinity bottle from all the many samples of a particular bottled-in-bond whiskey Tony had been sent over the years, and tasted a hoo-mama really-out-there rum, the news and tasting of which is a Philip Duff world exclusive!

In episode 326 of DCP - Mike & James talk about recovery as seen in the Christmas film "The First Snow of Fraggle Rock”. As they share their experience, strength & hope with you in their journey of recovery.

This is a special HOLIDAY episode featuring the chat I had on Katherine May's Podcast “The Clearing” where guests explore their ideal real or fantasy retreat. Here's what Katherine said about the episode: The ADHD and autistic tendency to rest in motion is fully realised in American author and illustrator Andy J. Pizza's vision of the ideal retreat. Choosing an extraordinary fictional setting which incorporates an ingenious method of traveling the world, this episode showcases the wonder of a brilliantly creative, neurodivergent brain. Along the way, and with many fascinating tangents, Andy and Katherine discuss the power of Miyazaki films, their shared love of Fraggle Rock and longing for direction from the universe. A meticulously thought out and fully realised world that accommodates his own personal experience of ADHD, Andy unveils the most beautifully zany and imaginative dreamscape. An absolute treat.   SHOW NOTES: Fraggle Rock Last of the Summer Wine Wiki The Master and his Emissary book about left and right brain The Little Prince Producer / Editor: Sophie Miller http://sophiemiller.coAudio Editing / Sound Design: Conner Jones http://pendingbeautiful.coSoundtrack / Theme Song: Yoni Wolf / WHY? http://whywithaquestionmark.com   SPONSORS:SQUARESPACEHead to https://www.squarespace.com/PEPTALK to save 10% off your first purchase of a website or domain using code PEPTALK AEROPRESSCheck out Aeropress and use my code PEPTALK for a great deal: https://aeropress.com Learn more about your ad choices.

This festive episode takes listeners aboard the WAOL Express for a Christmas journey through Apple TV's The First Snow of Fraggle Rock with John Tartaglia and Lele Pons, plus an amazing visit to Legoland Florida Resort.

Junk Food Dinner returns for our annual holiday celebration and this year we're feeling particularly nostalgic! Up first, The Muppets gang crashes at Fozzy's mom's house for the holidays and they're bringing all their friends, even the Sesame Street and Fraggle Rock crew, in the 1987 TV special A Muppet Family Christmas. Then, we revisit one of Sean's favorite holiday traditions; we see what movies and electronics film critics Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert were recommending folks pick up in the Siskel and Ebert's 1990 Holiday Video Gift Guide! And finally, in the summer of 1992, one of biggest films was the blockbuster sequel Batman Returns. Tim Burton and Michael Keaton returned but this time Batman squares off against The Penguin (played by Danny DeVito) and Catwoman (played by Michelle Pfeiffer). But is it a Christmas movie? You bet your Batmobile it is! All this plus holiday cheer from our buddy Peter, tributes to some fallen heroes, Sean's epic new video mix tape and much more!LISTEN NOW:MP3 Direct DonloydAlso, if you like the show, please take a minute and subscribe and/or comment on us on iTunes, Stitcher, Blubrry or Podfeed.net.

A new Fraggle Rock special just premiered on Apple TV, which means Fraggle Talk: Back to the Rock is back with another new podcast episode!We're digging deep into the new special, scene by scene, to get the behind-the-scenes scoop on how it came together and what sort of Fraggle magic can be found throughout. Joining us with the insider info is Executive Producer and the performer of Gobo Fraggle: John Tartaglia!PLUS! Gorgs laying giant eggs! Who is the Fraggliest Fraggle?! And a Very Special Cameo!

This might be the funniest, most NSFW episode we've ever recorded—and it's also one of the realest conversations we've ever had about women, comedy, and motherhood. Kristin and Tyler sit down with two women who have done something almost no one in their industry pulls off: build big, boundary-pushing comedy careers… and then become moms without disappearing into motherhood.Natasha Leggero — yes, that Natasha — the iconic stand-up comedian you know from Chelsea Lately, the Comedy Central Roasts, countless specials, and her cult-favorite series Another Period — brings her signature sharp, glamorous, no-BS take on what it really costs to survive Hollywood, stay funny, and navigate the emotional landmines of becoming a mom.She's joined by Sabrina Jalees — a comedian and powerhouse TV writer known for Big Mouth, Search Party, and Apple TV+'s Fraggle Rock — who brings a brutally funny, disarmingly honest look at identity, parenting, and the chaos of raising kids while making comedy for a living.Together, they do what women in comedy have always been told not to do: they get real, they get raw, and they say the quiet parts out loud.You'll hear:• How motherhood collides with a career built on late nights, touring, and telling the truth into a microphone• The invisible pressure on moms to be “grateful” and “perfect” while quietly drowning• The identity crisis of going from “comic first” to “mom first” — and how they're reclaiming both• Why laughing about the darkest, messiest parts of parenting can be the most healing thing you do• Wild, genuinely NSFW stories (strip clubs, autism disclaimers, airline-tracking apps… nothing is off-limits)It's chaotic, brilliant, vulnerable, and laugh-til-you-snort funny. If you've ever felt the pressure to do motherhood perfectly, the fear of losing yourself, or the relief of finally laughing at the mess — this episode is your permission slip. This is the side of motherhood no one talks about. This is the side of comedy no one sees. And this is the episode you'll be thinking about long after it's overNeed more?
