This week Jarrod surprises Joe with the personification of delight herself, Leslie Carrara-Rudolph! Leslie has worked on a myriad of Muppet/Henson projects over the years, like Muppets Tonight, Wubbulous World of Doctor Suess, and Animal Jam, and has played Abby Cadabby on Sesame Street since 2006! Aside from that, Leslie has worked on shows like The Simpsons and Nature Cat, and (when she can) does live shows with her sock puppet Lolly Lardpop, which reguarly garners great acclaim! Listen as we discuss disastrous auditions, having moments with Paula Pell, letters to Whoopi Goldberg, and we finally find out a little more about what the heck that America's Next Muppet pilot from 2005 was. Plus, Leslie's husband and Sesame composer Paul Rudolph makes the worst cameo ever, and cooks a full meal in the background. And, as always, a heck of a lot more.

Get cozy in your bed and join Abby and Alan as they imagine the most magical fairy garden.Want more Sesame Street x Headspace?
