Show #205 – June 12, 2011
Jun 12th
It’s the season finale of The MuppetCast, and boy do we go out with a bang! Capping off the 2010-2011 season is a spectacular giveaway of an authentic “The Muppets” movie poster, direct from Disney’s Muppet Studios! One lucky winner will hear their name announced before the show is over.
If you weren’t the winner this time, you still have one more chance to win this poster (I have two to give away). If you come to Dayton Disneyana on June 25 and enter to win The MuppetCast’s special drawing that day, you just might hold the winning ticket and take it home!
The MuppetCast has been sponsored this year by our friends at The Fingerbucket Report and Bell, Book & Comic. Life should be more Fun!
Wanna see what you’ll look like as a Whatnot? Muppet fan artist Dave Hulteen is ready to oblige! Check out Dave’s “Puppetize Yourself” website today. More >

Show #145 – January 17, 2010
Jan 18th
WARNING: THIS WEEK’S EPISODE IS NOT APPROPRIATE FOR CHILDREN. I know this is a rare occurrence, but there are parts of this week’s show that aren’t family friendly. This week I’m out of town, so in place of the usual stuff I’ve included different pieces from Avenue Q, the award-winning musical that in many ways parodies and pays tribute to Sesame Street. In fact, many of the puppeteers from the original cast actually performed on the Street! How cool is that!! But the material in the show and its music could be considered vulgar and offensive to some, so I want to warn you here in the show notes, as well as in the podcast itself. As long as you’re okay with that, enjoy! More >

Show #143 – January 3, 2010
Jan 4th
Welcome to the first show of 2010! To celebrate the new year we’ll look at a great Muppet TV special that aired in January of 1896, “The Muppets: A Celebration of 30 Years“. Sesame Street was less than 20 years old way back then, if you can believe it!
The MuppetCast Street Gang Giveaway Contest is now underway! Send an email to streetgangcontest@muppetcast.com to enter. Winners will be announced on shows 144 and 145. More >

Show #68 – July 27, 2008
Jul 28th
Welcome to The MuppetCast! I’m your host Steve Swanson, and this week’s show is jam-packed with so much content that I had to push back the upcoming special edition episode devoted to The Muppets Take Manhattan (which was the winner in the listener poll). This episode is really bursting at the seams with Muppet news, history, listener feedback, a brand new segment, and a feature segment containing some great rare Muppet audio. And on top of all of this, I’m happy to announce the winner of the Make Something Cool contest!
The featured audio this week comes to us courtesy of MuppetDanny. Since The Muppets Take Manhattan did win the poll, and since we had to delay its special episode, together we present something of a warm-up for the real thing. This rare audio comes from a 1984 book-and-record production of the Muppet gang presenting an abbreviated story of the film. More >
