Lots to talk about this week so let’s get right to it! Ryan Roe and Joe Hennes from ToughPigs.com join me to discuss the latest Muppet news, and with Halloween just around the corner we celebrate with some Muppet monsters!

The MuppetCast is sponsored by our friends at Bell, Book & Comic. Life should be more Fun!

In Muppetology we relive some fun moments with Beautiful Day Monster, one of the original monsters created by Jim Henson. It’s interesting to note, in the three sketches included in the segment (complete list here), Beautiful Day Monster is performed by three different Muppeteers (Jim Henson, Frank Oz, and Richard Hunt).

I’m in Walt Disney World this weekend celebrating the second annual Mouse Guest Experience! We’re having fun at the First-Ever Genuine No-Money-Back Guarantee MuppetCast MuppetVision 3D Meet! If you couldn’t make it to the park to join us, fear not! In lieu of actually being in the attraction, I’m proud to present an exclusive interview with MuppetVision 3D Pre-show director David Gumpel (official website)!
