Sorry, we had a mis-fire earlier while posting this weeks show. Were back up and running with the correct show now.

This weeks show is very special. Im proud to bring you audio this week from the Center for Puppetry Arts, located in Atlanta, Georgia. This week you will hear from people like Jane Henson, Heather Henson, and many many more wonderful people associated with the Henson family and Company. They were all at the Center for the unveiling of a new exhibit, entitled Jim Henson: Puppeteer. (more…)

Here is my tribute to Jim Henson on his birthday, along with Jerry Juhl. It’s a little bit more “bite-size” than normal, but I’m still very happy with it. I feel like so much was done earlier this year in the May tribute to Jim, but I wanted to celebrate both Jim and Jerry in an emotionally touching, yet more upbeat way than we did in May.

More to come next week, when I take you via the magic of podcasting to Atlanta, to the unveiling of “Jim Henson: Puppeteer”, the newest exhibit shown at the Center. You’re gonna love it! (more…)

Those of us in Ohio can look forward to Dave Goelz appearing at the Wexner Center in late November! Also, the Jim Henson company has agreed to produce three new web productions, and there are a few great stories giving more details. (more…)

Unfortunately, MuppetVision 3D will be leaving Disney’s California Adventure sooner or later. Lump that in with the news that Disney Adventures will be discontinued as of November 2007 (and may not show Roger Langridge’s Muppet comic strips), and it’s not the greatest news week. But this may lead to better things down the road, in the way of more Muppets in the parks! (more…)
