inspirational celebrational. And you guessed it Muppet,
0:52
ational production, The Muppets ever performed, the Muppet Show.
0:56
The era of the Muppet Show is doubtlessly, what we'd call.
1:00
Call Jim Henson's Imperial phase.
1:03
So I'm thrilled to talk about it with you.
1:05
You like that Imperial phase. I learned that phrase and I
1:09
think it means has a lot of emperor penguins in it.
1:13
Now, there's 15 seconds to curtain, so I'm here to knock on
1:17
my guest stars, dressing-room, doors.
1:20
Today, we're joined by two podcasting triple threats.
1:24
It's Anthony strand of tough, pigs.com and David Levy of the
1:28
Muppet turgi podcast. As always, the questions on this
1:32
show were written by me with help from that amazing Muppet
1:36
resource Muppet. Wiki and speaking of let's agree
1:39
to play fair today. Please don't, look at Muppet
1:42
Wiki or any other resource while we're playing, you know, my
1:45
uncle who owns tough pigs. This is his favorite podcast and
1:48
he'd be very upset. If anyone cheated, well, why
1:53
don't we get things started in our first round, will meet our
1:57
contestants? It's around.
1:59
We like to call All to tell a face contestants, you are going
2:05
to buzz in to answer three questions about yourself.
2:09
Whoever buzzes in first will get introduced first ready.
2:14
Go David? Alright, here's the first of the
2:19
three questions you're going to get.
2:21
Number one, what's your name? My name is David David Levy.
2:27
All right. Well, you got the hardest
2:29
question of the show? Correct for you.
2:31
Um, what's your history with the Muppets or with the Muppet Show?
2:36
You know I grew up watching The Muppets.
2:38
I remember Watching the Muppet Show.
2:40
I think towards the end of its original run.
2:43
When I was a wee lad and I just never really went away from
2:48
them. So I've been there, you know,
2:51
not from the beginning beginning but pretty close to it.
2:54
I have just stayed there. Yeah.
2:57
And you want to tell us a little bit about Muppet turgi?
2:59
What? You're working on right now?
3:01
Oh yes, of course. That'll thing.
3:05
So, I am the co host of a podcast called Muppet energy,
3:09
which is a Muppet Show re-watch podcast.
3:12
We started when the show launched on Disney plus like a
3:15
whole bunch of other podcasts did, but we do specifically is I
3:18
recently defined it as research informed posting.
3:22
So it's a combination of Of letting you know, like, who are
3:25
these guest stars? What are these songs?
3:27
Why do, I recognize that comedy bit.
3:29
But also, you know, having fun with some other Muppet fans
3:33
digging into like G. Do we think scooter is really
3:37
horny for Floyd, and I don't know if that wig is really
3:40
working for Miss Piggy. So if that sounds like you were
3:42
sort of thing, when we're recording this, we've just
3:45
wrapped up our first season will be back with season two,
3:47
starting with season two of The Muppet Show in early October.
3:50
Yeah, I think this isn't getting this episode isn't getting
3:53
released until Like November. So when you're hearing this and
3:57
we will be towards the beginning of season 2, alright?
4:01
And the last question I'm going to ask you, what's your favorite
4:04
Muppet Show sketch or song that you remember.
4:07
Oh, gosh, I'd never do well with favors because I love them all,
4:11
but I'm going to say, I go to Rio.
4:13
Okay. Yeah.
4:14
Your favorite of the day. That's what we like to say on
4:16
tough pigs. That's the one that came up on
4:18
shuffle most recently, and it's been stuck in my head.
4:20
My favorite Muppet of the day. Alright, so you've Just turned
4:24
20 points, David put who putting you in the lead, but Anthony
4:29
you've got a chance to answer these three questions, now, as
4:31
well. Anthony.
4:32
What's your name? Anthony strand.
4:35
All right, got it in one, Anthony.
4:38
What's your history with the Muppets or with this show in
4:40
particular? So, this show was, I saw the
4:45
movies is a lot more as a kid, we didn't get cable.
4:48
And when the music was on Nickelodeon, that was the first
4:51
time I ever saw at my grandma's house.
4:55
It was like so exciting. This thing to like, go to my
4:57
grandma's house and the Muppets have a TV show and it's just
5:02
songs and sketches and it's weird.
5:03
I specifically remember the Georgian Burns episode season 2.
5:08
So, coming up soon, I have a turkey but that one has a scene
5:14
with Gonzo where they, you know, Gonzo fiddle, while George Burns
5:17
and all that stuff. My mother named me.
5:18
She left a note. I died.
5:20
Two years before I was born. Left a note, all that stuff.
5:23
I remember seeing that one and just being like, this is my
5:26
favorite show. This is the greatest TV show
5:28
I've ever seen. And then, for the next several
5:31
years, I didn't really see the Muppet Show anymore after they
5:34
stopped ringing a Nickelodeon. But I checked the Muppet Show
5:37
book out of the public library all the time.
5:41
So honestly that book it was my main love a joke thing like
5:44
until until the DVDs came up almost you know, but yes the
5:50
Muppet Show was like a thing. I love more than I saw as a
5:52
child. Yeah, there was a period where
5:55
it was hard to find, you know, and really up until like three
6:00
months ago, it was really hard to find and Anthony.
6:04
I'm going to ask you the same question.
6:05
What's your favorite Muppet Show sketch for song?
6:08
Are your favorite one of the day?
6:09
So I'll say you mentioned moving right along my podcast with Ryan
6:14
Row in our Test episode 6 years ago, we did a test episode on,
6:19
good grief, new comedians of are because that is is a favorite of
6:24
both of ours and we thought it would be a good test to see if
6:26
the format of our podcast would work just like, you know, doing
6:29
a deep dive on two minutes of my big content and there's so much
6:32
there. It's so funny and criminal
6:34
Fozzie. I think that's the moment when
6:36
their relationship was crystallized, you know, and it's
6:40
perfect. Yeah.
6:41
Good grief, the comedian's of the bear.
6:43
Yeah, that's a good one. Yeah.
6:44
And I don't know if I specifically called out your
6:46
podcast the same way I did with David's just because we always
6:50
talk about your podcast on tough pigs.
6:53
Anthony, of course hosts moving right along the Muppet movie
6:56
podcast, we do on tough pigs.com and it's excellent.
7:00
And you just finished up, the Muppets, Take Manhattan.
7:02
We did, we just said, goodbye. If you were to the Moon
7:05
statement hat, I see what you did there.
7:09
Alright, so our score is tied right now.
7:12
David has 20 points and Anthony has 20 points and now all
7:17
contestants need to be on stage for round two.
7:19
Obviously, you can't have a Muppet Show without Kermit
7:22
Fozzie Iggy animal and all of their their Pals.
7:26
But in this round which we call can you guess your job is to
7:31
identify these other classic recurring Muppet Show characters
7:36
who maybe didn't appear quite as often as that core gang.
7:41
Each of these right answers is worth one point buzz in when you
7:45
know the answer but please wait. Until I'm done with the
7:48
questions so the audience can play along, right?
7:50
Are we ready? Ready, question, number 10.
7:53
Not usually considered one of the Muppets key musicians, he
7:58
played triangle in the orchestra pit in the first and second
8:02
seasons. David crazy.
8:07
Harry correct, crazy. Harry.
8:09
Question 2, although he isn't very smart in the Muppet Show's
8:13
final season, he accurately starts worrying.
8:17
That the world is coming to an end.
8:22
Anthony Beauregard. Correct, question 3, one of his
8:27
only spoken lines in the entire Muppet filmography is how about
8:33
a little traveling music? Anthony it slips in the great
8:39
love with you. That sure is lips, which I never
8:42
noticed it until we covered it on the podcast.
8:44
I could not have told you one question for he only appeared on
8:49
stage three times yet appeared in every episode of The Muppet
8:54
Show's fifth season. David.
9:00
Oh, is it pops? It is pops.
9:05
Yes. Can anyone name any of those
9:07
times? He appeared on stage?
9:09
Nope. It's, um, it's with a duet with
9:14
Fozzie, and it's some song with Amy in the title.
9:17
I don't remember the Once In Love With Amy.
9:19
What's up with Amy? Yes, definitely.
9:23
The third one, he was Geppetto in the song Puppet, Man.
9:27
Sure that. Yeah, that's a.
9:29
That's a that's that's a song that I'm not sure knows the
9:32
overtones of itself. Correct.
9:35
It's creepy. I'll be good when Muppet church.
9:37
He finally gets to season 5. I'm excited.
9:40
Alright. Question, six, his performance
9:43
of a signature song in the first season of The Muppet Show became
9:47
a top-ten single in the UK. David, that's Robin.
9:53
That is Robin question. 7, she is both one of the only
9:56
recurring female Muppets and one of the only right-handed
10:00
Muppets. Anthony.
10:06
That is incorrect. Is it any suit is a nice?
10:10
Ooh, David. I was like who's Louise Gold's
10:14
most recurring Muffet? Yeah, she's good.
10:17
She's the Lefty because Louise, gold is thought the Lefty
10:19
Puppeteer. So her left hand is in a nice
10:22
ooze head and her right hand is manipulating Annie's right hand
10:27
question. Eight originally crafted as a,
10:29
what not an intended to appear in.
10:31
Only one episode, he would go on to appear in every Muppet.
10:39
Anthony Marvin Suggs incorrect. He's not in all the movies.
10:45
Marvin slugs. You never know.
10:47
He seems like somebody who could be in every crowd scene.
10:49
I don't think he is. Maybe I'm wrong.
10:51
I don't think he is. I am eating one movie away from
10:55
the end of a movie re-watching. And I'm embarrassed that I can't
10:58
come up with who this is. Well, I'm checking the Marvin
11:01
Suggs while you're thinking I'm gonna edit.
11:03
I'm going to edit this out. Cuz I'll give you credit if I'm
11:07
you know probably not if he's not in case.
11:10
He's not he's not in Treasure Island.
11:13
He's not in Christmas Carol, Marvin Suggs.
11:17
So any guesses David? I'm coming up.
11:19
Totally blank, Lew Zealand. Oh my God I should have said it.
11:24
New Zealand. Lucille was even in the Lady,
11:31
Gaga, Christmas special. I don't count that as a movie,
11:33
but yes, no. But I'm just saying like that
11:35
should have been. I just re-watched that for
11:37
reasons, I cannot explain, but that should have been the him.
11:40
Like he was the clear like Oddball in that Bunch.
11:44
So like someone loves Lucille and he's in all of them and I
11:48
think I couldn't remember if he has a speaking line in Muppets
11:53
from space, but He has a speaking line in every movie If
11:57
he if he has a speaking line of Muppets from space, What mother
12:01
is facing definitely gets a featured moment because he's a
12:03
dancing. He's dancing and drinking in the
12:06
bathroom. Yeah.
12:07
But I don't remember if he has a speaking line and I didn't get
12:10
the chance to re-watch it before writing that question, but he's
12:12
in the movie question 9 as Muppet Wiki says, this character
12:17
is notable for many Appalachians.
12:21
Be am a PhD Obe and are VP. David, but Mildred that is
12:30
Mildred. We love Mildred Cleveland
12:32
Muppets represent. Ryan question 10, despite
12:36
appearing in the first shot of the classic Muppet Show opening.
12:40
He was not rebuilt for the Muppets 2011.
12:46
Anthony, Is it Timmy monster? It is Timmy monster.
12:52
Yeah, because his dog was and and sweetums is there.
12:55
Yeah there's just a hopeful, there's just a hole in the arch
12:57
where there should be Tim. It's the weirdest thing.
13:00
I don't know why they couldn't put something there.
13:03
Like even if they didn't want to rebuild Timmy, the scene is so
13:05
weirdly lopsided. It's also weird kid with the
13:08
wrong size. Thought yeah, everything about
13:10
that scene is just yeah, so nice work.
13:15
That's the end of round two, good remembering and speaking of
13:17
remembering Fozzie Bear here with jokes to tell.
13:22
Both old and rare. No no it's just me but I'm here
13:27
with the remembering game in this game inspired by season 1
13:32
of The Muppet Show. Your job is to finish Fozzie's
13:36
jokes from the theme song. It's okay, if you don't get the
13:40
wording exactly, I can't expect you to get these wordings
13:43
perfectly, but you have to get them clothes, you have to get
13:46
the spirit of the joke. Correct.
13:48
And You know, it helps, if you do your best Fozzie impression,
13:52
so please bear with me. But remember to wait until I
13:56
finish the setup before you buzz in with a punch line and of
14:00
course each joke is worth one point.
14:02
Death metadata, question 1. Hey I went to a resort hotel for
14:06
a change and arrest the waiter, got the change.
14:11
Anthony. And I got arrested incorrect
14:18
David, and I got the rest. The hotel, got the rest.
14:24
All right, question to, hey, that Gonzo is so dumb.
14:28
He just heard that we're running short of water.
14:30
So he this is so embarrassing. I just thought this round would
14:36
be fun. Like, I don't know how you hate
14:38
hard, but you have any Hall here?
14:39
She could do the whole thing Anthony.
14:45
He built a lake. I don't know it's incorrect.
14:51
But hey, I'd love to see him. Build a link.
14:55
You heard we're running short of water so he cried a lot.
15:00
I don't know. This was my favorite Fozzie Bear
15:03
joke when I was a child. It's he wants us to dilute it.
15:08
We're running short on water so he wants us to dilute it.
15:13
Was a weird child which is why I'm a weird adult.
15:18
All right, question 3 in our house, we use paper plates and
15:21
every night after dinner my wife.
15:29
Anthony raps, fish and chip in them.
15:34
It was filmed in the United Kingdom but no that's not.
15:38
What Fozzie's? Wife does Fuzzy's wife erases
15:44
them. Erases them is correct David.
15:46
Yes I'm exempt. Yeah question for I finally
15:51
found a sure way to lose weight. I bought a scale that Anthony
15:58
wise. Correct.
16:00
Yeah, that one. I remember question five.
16:04
My cousin is so thin. He paints his head gold and
16:14
David liked as a flagpole rents himself out as a flagpole.
16:18
I will absolutely give it to you.
16:21
You know, it's funny. So I tested these out.
16:24
These questions out on my partner, who likes the Muppets
16:28
fine. But, like, they haven't seen
16:30
that many episodes of The Muppet Show.
16:31
Mostly the movies, you know, a couple that I've shown them, and
16:35
I was like, can you get these just like, can you complete the
16:39
joke just based on your knowledge of comedy and they did
16:43
not I understand that one at all.
16:46
They were like so upset. They're like flag poles aren't
16:49
even gold. I'm like, I guess you're right.
16:54
They could be no know that they can't be but not usually
16:59
question six. I don't approve of belly
17:02
dancers. Why can't they dance David on
17:07
their legs closed? But I'm not giving it to you.
17:10
Anthony standing up close, but I'm not giving it to you on the
17:14
floor like everyone else. Question 7, hey, we were so
17:21
poor. I was born at home.
17:23
After my mother saw me. She went Anthony to the
17:32
hospital. Correct.
17:38
Hey question. What has 1000 legs but can't
17:41
walk. Anthony.
17:52
Millipede on crutches? No, but good, that's funny.
17:58
I mean, it's sad to I just got I just think of all those
18:02
millipedes on their little millipede.
18:04
Crutches and Airline map, 500 pairs of pants.
18:14
All right, we got two left question nine.
18:18
Hey, I once met a vampire who is so rich?
18:21
She lived in. David.
18:31
A blood bank incorrect Anthony. A double-wide coffin Anthony.
18:37
That's so close. I am going to give it to you.
18:39
It's a split-level coffin. Yeah, you know, you're
18:46
considering this game is pretty like, difficult and ridiculous.
18:51
I will give that one to you, and then, laugh.
18:54
And last but not least, hey, I wouldn't say the great Gonzo was
18:58
dumb. But when he graduated from
19:00
school, he get a diploma, he gotta David, a pension correct.
19:08
I remember that one. I remember you talking about
19:11
that on your podcast. Well, because I had to explain
19:13
it because one of the other hosts didn't get it, we're
19:16
didn't understand why it was funny.
19:19
Well, that was so funny and Folks at home, there's no video
19:25
but I promise you, they were wiggling, their ears and
19:28
everything. Let's take a second and check
19:31
the scores right now. Anthony has six points.
19:35
Excuse me, 26 points. How could I forget the 20 points
19:39
from the first round? And David has 28 points.
19:45
Whoa, very close game. I got very nervous when math was
19:49
happening. Now, it's time for a
19:53
head-to-head round that we call be the time in this round.
19:58
The rules are a little different.
19:59
We're going to start with Anthony and you each will be
20:02
responsible for providing an answer to my question.
20:05
So Anthony, you're going to answer the question, then we're
20:08
going to jump to David David. You're going to answer that.
20:11
Same question, then, we're going to jump back to Anthony if you
20:14
get an answer wrong, obviously, you'll jump, right?
20:17
We'll jump right to the other person.
20:19
So, they'll have a chance to go again.
20:22
If you can't answer will jump to the other person as well.
20:26
I don't think I understand. Okay.
20:27
Yeah, this is a game that I've had a hard time explaining but
20:30
it plays fine. Okay, there's going to be one
20:33
question. And that question is going to
20:34
have This case, the question has nine answers, okay?
20:38
That's the part that I'm in. We're going to alternate back
20:40
and forth answering that question.
20:42
Got it. That's what I mean.
20:44
It's like a final round on. Ask me another.
20:46
Yes, exactly. I kind of stole a lot of the
20:50
concepts. I thought about writing
20:51
limericks, like, wait, wait, don't tell me but I didn't.
20:56
All right, the Muppets covered many songs by popular artists,
21:01
throughout the Muppet Show, but possibly none of these artists.
21:05
It's were as famous as the Beatles or used as often as the
21:10
Beatles starting with Anthony, you will each take turns naming
21:15
one Beatles song performed on The Muppet Show.
21:20
There were nine Beatles songs performed during the show's
21:23
whole run. Again, if you can't answer, I'm
21:26
going to jump over to the to your opponent.
21:28
Also, for this version of beat the time, you will earn an extra
21:33
point. If you can identify Who sang it
21:36
on The Muppet Show? Or how the number was staged.
21:40
All right. Get two points.
21:41
If we can do both, you get two points, if you can do both.
21:43
Exactly. So there are nine total answers
21:47
here and we are starting with Anthony.
21:52
Oh, bloody Obadiah. And it's two British dogs, and
21:56
one who's a cop? Absolutely David in my life
22:04
Twiggy is giving a press conference.
22:06
And then, there is a slideshow of pictures of Twiggy.
22:09
Correct? It's weird, very weird.
22:13
We call it twiggy's in memoriam to herself.
22:17
Absolutely, Anthony. I'm looking through you and it's
22:20
some ghosts. Carrying Fozzie backstage,
22:23
correct? David Octopus's Garden and I
22:29
want to say that it's Kermit and Robin and they are swimming
22:32
underwater with octopuses and others, correct?
22:39
Anthony she loves you but I can't remember what it is.
22:44
I just remember. Like I can hear it in my head
22:47
but I can't picture it. So yeah, I can't do it.
22:49
I'll give you one point for she loves you David.
22:53
Do you remember how she loves? You was performed.
22:55
This was not season one so no. In fact, I like we may be at the
23:00
end of my knowledge of beetles on The Muppet.
23:02
So It's some bugs. In in the grass.
23:10
Oh sure. So it's just like beetles.
23:11
Yeah, it's a really lousy pun that they took like four seasons
23:16
to come up with David. Can you name it since it is your
23:21
turn. Can you name another Beatles
23:24
song? I mean I can't have a Beatles
23:25
song and guests. Here Comes the Sun incorrect.
23:31
Okay Anthony. um, I know that, I know that there's more at the,
23:43
you just said that there is more, there are four remaining
23:47
four remaining, and one of them is one of them is I know that I
24:00
should know this. Um, I mean, worst comes to
24:03
worst, you can guess the Beatles song, right, that's right.
24:06
That's the that's the reason I I chose this was I was like well
24:09
anyone could guess a beat? Like I could come up with nine,
24:12
Dorothy Fields song, yes you could.
24:16
I don't know if our audience at home cash.
24:21
So I think of which ones I remember, seeing on the show and
24:30
Good Day, Sunshine, correct. Do you remember how it was
24:33
staged in the dark right in the dark?
24:36
Yeah, it's a melt went out. It's a medley with Dancing in
24:40
the Dark because the power keeps going out.
24:43
I once wrote an article for tough pigs about how that is the
24:46
best sketch The Muppets ever did.
24:49
I'm sure I read it so that's 2 points, David any guesses?
24:56
Oh, can I guess a character in a situation without guessing a
25:00
song? Because I am sure at some point
25:04
Ralph at the piano to The Beatles, cover Incorrect and the
25:08
Not Dead Act Naturally. Floyd right?
25:13
I'm gonna give you a point, it is not on my list because it was
25:17
not originally recorded by The Beatles.
25:20
So their version of the you are correct.
25:23
Floyd sings it in Muppets, go to the movies.
25:25
But that is not how it is performed on The Muppet Show,
25:29
proper nuns. Those guns are sings.
25:31
Animal chirps. Yes.
25:32
Oh well, for counting Beatles covers, then search in where
25:36
Floyd is looking for. Mary Lou with the to creepy
25:39
detectives which The Beatles covered on Anthology one, I will
25:43
give you two points for that. That was not on my list either.
25:46
But if I gave Anthony 0.44 Act Naturally, I'm going to have to
25:50
Anthony, we're going to bounce back to you.
25:52
There's still three actual Beatles.
25:55
Songs remaining. Very songs pinned by the beat.
25:59
Yeah. I'm trying to think and let's
26:05
say that lets say that. Any Sue pig sings, baby you can
26:11
drive my car which I don't think and both are not true David
26:15
Floyd sings While My Guitar. Gently Weeps correct.
26:20
Yes, on both counts. Yeah.
26:24
Was that just a wild guess? Well I was like, okay, I'm
26:27
pretty sure they must have done a George Harrison song.
26:32
If that's a good, guess have a give another guest am not going
26:34
to see us. I want to give you have any
26:36
appointment, Anthony back to you.
26:39
This Boyd also sing Blackbird Floyd does sing Blackbird and a
26:43
duet with Janice weirdly enough. That was only a UK spot and it
26:48
feels weird to Shell out the money for a Beatles song.
26:52
Oh I know why? I know the answer David a TV
26:56
which was the British producer of The Muppet Show owned the
27:00
songwriting catalog. Leonard McCarthy at the time.
27:02
So it was not actually shelling out money was giving themselves
27:05
money. There you go.
27:06
Oh, I learned that it might cramming for today's episode
27:11
David. Um, there's one song remaining
27:15
unless you can say no, unless you can surprise me with like
27:17
another old. Standby, that the Beatles did a
27:19
cover-up. No.
27:21
And I don't think this is right, but I'm gonna go with another
27:24
George Harrison song, and think maybe one of the guest stars
27:26
saying something, you would think so, but incorrect, okay.
27:30
And Anthony. He can you get the last one?
27:34
There's one more correct and it is, oh, I know what it is.
27:40
Damn, it's okay. No, that's fine.
27:43
First, I'm going to guess that George and Mildred saying, I
27:52
Want to Hold Your Hand. Oh, wonderful.
27:54
Guest that I wish happened because they were both performed
27:58
by Frank Oz simultaneously, holding hands all the time.
28:03
So I know the real, the actual answer David, I'm gonna kiss it
28:05
is a season one sketch. It is I get by with a little
28:08
help with my friends and it is like the it's like a human
28:14
sacrifice situation, correct? Yeah.
28:17
Gorgeous. All right.
28:18
That's all the Beatles songs and what a great round.
28:22
Well, I love that now. That was fun.
28:24
Weirdly enough. You each earned?
28:27
10 points. Awesome, great.
28:30
All right, well I hope you passed the audition.
28:34
Now we move into around that we call mystery guest to introduce
28:39
these guest stars is what we are here to do.
28:42
So it really makes me happy to explain these rules.
28:47
To you. I'm going to name a sketch from
28:51
an episode of The Muppet. Show you earn three points.
28:55
If you can identify which guest star episode it is from the
29:01
sketch main may or may not have been performed by that guest
29:04
star. You're naming the guest star who
29:06
that episode feature. If neither of, you can buzz in
29:11
with what what death star that was, I'll give you another
29:16
sketch from Not episode. If you get it then you earn 2
29:21
points. If nobody can get it after the
29:23
second one. I'll give you a third sketch.
29:26
If you buzz in, then you get one point, right?
29:30
So the more clues, you need, the less points you get, but you
29:34
still get points. Even if it takes that long,
29:36
right? This round should be called the
29:38
buccal especially after our family.
29:41
Yeah. He's the master of this would
29:43
know these all. So again, all of these names
29:46
were chosen because I looked at a list of all of the game shows
29:49
that have ever appeared on Sesame Street and they're all
29:52
just names of game shows that Guy Smiley or Pat play jacks.
29:57
Hosted this is Mystery guest so as always wait to buzz in until
30:01
I finished naming the sketch, right?
30:04
And we'll go from there. So episode 1 I've got you under
30:11
my skin. Anthony.
30:17
Vincent Price. That is the Vincent Price
30:19
episode. So that's, that's what I watch
30:22
every year. So that's three points episode 2
30:27
Tea for two. Anthony Harry Belafonte.
30:36
That is Harry Belafonte. It's relevant Lucilla and doing
30:39
something funny curtain closed. Question 36 string orchestra.
30:52
Anthony. The stars of Star Wars,
30:55
featuring Mark, Hamill correct. Anthony's really good at this.
30:58
One question for her episode 4 in the Navy.
31:09
David, Roger Moore correct? That was prominently featured in
31:14
of Muppets and Men, the which I watched last night, that's the
31:19
thing. I think of that sketch is being
31:20
from question, five, I won't dance.
31:30
Anthony, that's your to burn. That is George Burns.
31:33
I did not realize that was your favorite episode of all time.
31:36
When I wrote These it's one of them.
31:39
It's up there. Dorothy field song my question 6
31:47
Paco Africa. David, Earl Grey.
31:54
That is Joel Grey was how I haven't needed to go to the
31:57
other sketches on any of these. Question 7.
32:03
Yes, we Have No Bananas. Anthony Phyllis George correct.
32:13
David. Can you name another episode
32:15
that featured that song? Oh gosh probably not accurately.
32:22
I want to say Lola Falana but I think this is because her name
32:24
kind of reminds me of the war banana know.
32:28
So the one that I was actually originally looking for was Steve
32:32
Martin Marvin Suggs performs it in the Steve Martin episode but
32:36
apparently it also appears in In the Jean-Pierre rampal episode
32:42
of The Muppet Show, which I have definitely seen at one point in
32:46
my life, but couldn't remember episode 8, edible paper clips.
32:58
All right, should I move on to a second sketch?
33:01
I mean, I could name a random guest star and see if I can get
33:04
it. All right, let's move on to a
33:08
second sketch. In the good old summertime.
33:15
Anthony Pearl. Bailey correct.
33:18
She's a good Lloyd backstage which cools if I had not ruined
33:23
the first attempt at making dinner tonight.
33:25
Thereby delaying dinner. Thereby limiting the number of
33:28
Muppet Show episodes I can watch before we join this call that
33:31
was next on my list. Such a good one.
33:35
You definitely would have gotten it by the third one because the
33:37
third one, I had written down every single song that they
33:41
perform in the Camelot number. Question nine.
33:48
Night and day. Anthony.
33:56
I don't know, let's say Diana, Ross incorrect.
33:59
I don't think this is right by Carol Burnett, no, neither of
34:01
you are, right? So let's go to the second clue
34:03
here friendship train. Anthony.
34:10
Is it Gladys? Knight it is, Gladys, Knight and
34:13
Gladys day, they don't actually do that pun in the day and night
34:17
night and day number. It's well, but that's because
34:21
they do the. I'm glad it's night bit at the
34:23
opening and she says, yeah, LOL one.
34:26
Yeah, she only allows one, right.
34:28
You drool that's a night and day is one of my favorite sketches
34:32
as well. That's the one with the mummies.
34:35
Oh yeah, we Gonzo is the lead mum.
34:37
Yeah. Yeah, that's I see a theme in
34:39
your favorites. Mummies.
34:42
No nights and days. All true.
34:43
Good Day. Sunshine was my other favorite.
34:45
Correct. All right.
34:47
Episode 10 Auto, the automatic Entertainer Anthony is that Jean
34:58
Stapleton. It is not Jean Stapleton.
35:00
David do you have a guess here? Otherwise I'll go to the second
35:02
clip. No.
35:04
All right, sketch number 2 from this episode.
35:08
Let's Call the Whole Thing Off. I'm going to move on to sketch
35:16
number three. A bird in a gilded cage.
35:23
Anthony Liberace is not Liberace and boy, could you have not
35:28
chosen a more opposite performer?
35:34
All right, who's the richest performer?
35:35
Who's on The Muppet Show? Who's not Roger Moore.
35:39
David for one point, can you name the most Butch person who
35:42
was ever on the source alone? Correct.
35:44
Yes. Favorite episodes.
35:53
I love that. Let's Call the Whole Thing Off
35:55
number with that, weird full-body lion.
35:58
That's that. Yeah, yeah.
36:00
And then the last episode that we are doing Smoke Gets In Your
36:05
Eyes. We don't want the numbers are so
36:10
interested in that. So I tried to make them get
36:13
harder as we went on like that's how I Anthony.
36:19
Did you buzz in? I'm sorry I did buzzing and
36:23
Antics. Just let's just say Ben Vereen.
36:26
Okay, incorrect David. You want to guess the season 1
36:29
episode? You at least know all those
36:31
actors Charles aznavour incorrect.
36:34
Second. Clue lady wrestlers.
36:40
Anthony. That's some too.
36:45
Then Smoke Gets In Your Eyes and season to the Smoke.
36:48
Gets In Your Eyes, as in more than one episode.
36:49
Hold on, let me recent, let me go back to brew.
36:52
Let me go. Let me go, let me go back and
36:55
make sure that you guys didn't get that.
36:58
No, Wayne and Wanda. Never perform Smoke Gets In Your
37:00
Eyes. Oh, I'm confusing with on a
37:02
clear day. You can see forever, which is
37:03
the gag. You would do.
37:04
If we don't want to do, Smoke Gets In Your Eyes spoilers, they
37:09
do that gag when this appears in season two, um, but is it Teresa
37:15
Brewer. It is not oh gosh.
37:18
So I can tell you the whole plot of the episode and I just cannot
37:22
remember who the guest star is because it's the one where
37:26
they're they're out of money and they go to scooters uncle and he
37:32
says, he will do it as long as they class it up with his
37:34
favorite entertainment. And that entertainment is Lady
37:39
wrestlers, and Oh gosh, and I just haven't watched it yet, but
37:46
I just read that Joseph. A Bailey book where he talks
37:48
about writing this sketch. Yeah, that's 0. 0 is 0.
37:57
Wow, the last one would have probably given it away.
38:01
It was what do the simple folk do, which is the one that zero
38:04
mostel actually performs the other two he did not.
38:08
With Featherstone a favorite. Well, I'm just the others
38:11
though. I still never found you that
38:15
picture of me and Tom Mandela that I said I would send you.
38:18
Oh yeah. Because you've never been there.
38:20
You haven't been to mow me since they were you have 10 minutes, I
38:24
read it. Yeah.
38:25
Alright, okay, so let's continue with our guest stars and head to
38:30
our talk spot in my favorite game, the triangle is right in
38:35
this game. There's three right.
38:38
Answers to every question and you can score points for each,
38:42
right? Answer.
38:43
You get remember buzz in even if you don't know all three answers
38:48
because you'll get points for whatever you do.
38:51
Remember, but if you miss any, your opponent will have the
38:55
chance to clean up whatever you missed.
38:58
So, these are all questions about Muppet Show guests and
39:01
each of these have three right answers.
39:04
Question, one the three Humans who guest starred in season 4?
39:15
Anthony. R2D2 C-3PO and Chewbacca correct
39:20
question to the three actresses. Who both guest-starred on The
39:25
Muppet Show and in The Muppets Take Manhattan.
39:33
David Linda, Lavin Liza Minnelli, and Oh, it's
39:46
Canonsburg. His mother is in the Muppets.
39:48
Take Manhattan and Edgar Bergens life, right?
39:57
Oh gosh. It's not Joan Rivers.
39:59
It's it's actresses, right? You said, I guess they have to
40:02
be female. Okay, I'm just going to run
40:06
through all the, all the I'm so embarrassed because it's my
40:16
favorite movie. Like that is a favorite Muppet,
40:18
movie favorite movie. And I am drawing a blank on the
40:21
third one. Anthony, it's Brooke.
40:23
She it is Brooke Shields. I wish I'd known that.
40:26
I'm sorry. We didn't invite you on the
40:27
show. No, it's okay.
40:29
I didn't want to be pushy about it.
40:32
Sure, well, if you ever want to we'd love to have you for a
40:34
later one. No, thanks.
40:37
How do you, how do you feel about Christmas David?
40:40
So I am the exact right age to heat that movie because like
40:44
because it was both like it's the Muppet movie that came out.
40:47
Like I grew up with the Jim Henson Muppets and then that
40:50
came out and also like I think that was the first thing that
40:53
came out when I was in high school and suddenly I was like a
40:55
little not the right target age, so that might be my favorite
41:01
one. I say the Movie is my favorite
41:03
but that one might be my favorite just because it's my
41:06
wife's favorite one. It's so beautiful.
41:08
Like, it's probably the one that's the best directed.
41:11
Even if like the jokes obviously, and the songs are not
41:15
as good as the other ones. But I digress.
41:18
Question 3, the three oldest Muppet Show, guest stars in
41:24
terms of birth year, David. George Burns, Senor wences, and
41:34
I think, Bob Hope. Okay, you got two of them, you
41:37
got the first two Bob, Hope is not on that list.
41:39
Those those are the three who lived to 100 or later.
41:43
Yeah. Well, that's why I did in terms
41:45
of birth year. No, I know.
41:47
That's just why I was trying to like, split the difference
41:49
there? Anthony.
41:50
Can you get the last one? So it's somebody who's older
41:54
than Bob Hope and who it is. So, it's And your Bergen.
42:02
It is Edgar Bergen. I almost said Milton Berle, but
42:04
I think he's about five years younger than Bob Hope.
42:06
Okay, so we're going to do the opposite.
42:08
Now, the three youngest Muppet Show, guest stars in terms of
42:12
birth year Anthony, Brooke Shields, mmm.
42:21
And then I believe the next one is Cheryl Ladd and then no.
42:27
Okay, but Mark Hammond, Mark Hamill is one of the other ones,
42:29
but Cheryl Ladd is not. There's someone you're
42:32
forgetting okay, David, any guesses.
42:37
Nice is very confident about Brooke Shields.
42:39
She was the only one who was killing.
42:43
Yes. She's the only one who was like,
42:44
literally a child. So here's one, that is
42:49
absolutely correct and you're not going to count it, it is Big
42:52
Bird. I almost have to eat only been
43:01
around for like 11 years old but then it wouldn't Big Bird.
43:06
It would be R2. Her C-3PO or Chewbacca.
43:10
Well, except that also big birds.
43:11
Like canonical a yeah. That's true.
43:13
But it is in terms of birth year as what I said but it's neither
43:18
of those people. I'm not going to give you credit
43:20
it is. Do I do I get to guess again now
43:23
it's sadly taken from us far too sir soon Christopher guessing a
43:29
good point. Christopher Reeve I should know
43:34
that cuz he and Mark Hamill, we're like best buddy.
43:36
Yeah, it's again. It's tough.
43:38
I feel like we don't think of him as being that young because
43:44
he passed so early. Like, it doesn't like when I was
43:47
writing this list I was like oh yeah I guess he is you know well
43:52
but also like the roles that we associate with him.
43:55
Our grown-up rolls right side? Like he we didn't we don't have
43:59
a vision of him playing teenagers even if he does for a
44:02
little bit and Superman. Yeah.
44:04
As opposed to Brooke Shields and Mark Hamill who he right?
44:06
Doesn't they got another guy Played the team in Superman and
44:10
then possibly his voice. Moving on question 5 excluding
44:16
mummenschanz and other fictional characters the three Muppet Show
44:22
episodes that feature guest stars with one word names.
44:31
Anthony. Liberace.
44:36
And I was so confident on Liberace, but the other two must
44:43
be stars with one word names, huh?
44:49
I'm embarrassed to say that I told me when I can think of
44:51
Liberace. I'm sure myself.
44:53
David Can you steal? Gosh.
44:55
Hmm. Probably not.
45:03
This is what I get, really sad that sure was never on the show.
45:07
She should have been Charo, seems like she could have been
45:11
right? And like, you know, technically
45:13
Shields and Yarnell have names I'm counting Shields and Yarnell
45:18
because that I will give you a point for that.
45:21
Okay, they're their Guild as Shields and Yarnell.
45:25
Okay? I mean everyone has a name.
45:28
Liberace has a name. Well, right, but like, But like
45:33
they actually had names that they used just.
45:35
Yeah. But they all say that excused
45:37
Shields and Yarnell right. Okay, okay, but that's just one,
45:40
that's why. Yes I said, okay.
45:42
So it's I mean, am I circles? Liza only has one name but
45:47
that's not how current introduces her.
45:50
That I know I'm trying to play. Listen, I don't I don't mean to
45:54
scare you with this very spooky episode but it's Twiggy.
46:00
Oh my goodness. And my favorite question of this
46:07
episode. And the last question in this
46:09
round, the three Muppet Show, guest stars, who also appeared
46:15
in live action, movies based on DC Comics.
46:25
David. Christopher Reeve Lynda Carter
46:44
otherwise no she was only live action films because you
46:53
otherwise Mark Hamill would be a really a choice.
46:55
There's a bunch Paul. Williams was the Penguin on the
46:59
animated TV show, but I'm just kind of live action movies.
47:06
I've got the third one is probably like, in the movie of
47:08
Swamp Thing or something, right? Like it's a I know how you game
47:12
shows work. I'll tell you this.
47:16
It was in a very this actor was in a very successful DC Comics
47:21
movie. Okay, like financially speaking,
47:25
right? I don't know about the Rotten
47:28
Tomatoes score. Who knows with any of these
47:30
superhero movies. I'm going to have to let Anthony
47:35
go again. Need to toss this Anthony,
47:36
Anthony, any idea. Again, I'm I feel like I should
47:41
know it in a very successful at least financially financially
47:46
speaking. I mean, I liked it.
47:49
Yeah, you like it and it was doesn't mean anything though.
47:52
I hate but now I'm thinking like like was Vengeance cavelli
47:55
secretly on the who's in Batman, but no, I unfortunately I cannot
48:04
think of who it is and have credit for me.
48:07
Shell flavor. I mean, Deadpool is the Ripoff
48:31
of Deathstroke, right? So, does that happen?
48:33
That's a Marvel movie. That's, that's what that was, my
48:37
little. All right, so let me, let me
48:44
guess that it's It's Superman to, and it's Leo, Sayers and
48:55
Superman to, he could have been, but no to the best of my
48:58
knowledge. He was not.
48:59
So listen, this was my favorite question that I wrote.
49:02
And to write this question, I had to do a lot of reading on
49:07
Muppet Wiki to make sure I wasn't missing interpreting the,
49:10
the numbers here. If anyone, you know, playing
49:14
along at home believes, I am wrong here.
49:17
And there's some actor that I'm Getting please let me know but
49:21
to the best of my knowledge. Christopher, Reeve obviously
49:24
appeared in for live-action DC, Comics movies, Superman one,
49:28
two, three, and four Lynda. Carter was on a TV show for
49:32
years but did appear in the oh wait Queen was it course?
49:36
Preach minimal Wonder Woman pilot with me.
49:38
I wasn't counting that is that's that's from that was the pilot
49:43
of the TV show movie. Yeah.
49:46
But before the series, TV movie is not on.
49:52
This was definitely a theatrically released movie.
49:55
Oh no. Is this is it going to be from
49:56
Batman 66? It is not.
49:58
Okay, it's from the hit Financial, smash film Aquaman,
50:05
which few letters, which faces Andrews.
50:19
You did say appears in. All right, okay, set of P.
50:22
Are you really gonna play that game with me?
50:24
And then he just know, I Anyway, so we're coming up on
51:00
the end of a of our show, but the points are even bigger.
51:03
This is the anything in the world prize day because you two
51:07
are now able to ask me anything in the world or at least
51:12
anything in the world of the Muppet Show, each of you will
51:15
get to ask me a question about this show.
51:17
If you stumped me, you will earn Ten points.
51:22
Here we go. So David.
51:24
Why don't you get us started here?
51:27
Okay, as you probably know throat, especially the first
51:32
couple years of the show, there would be puppeteers who came on
51:38
to do a featured role here or there but did not become regular
51:41
members of the Muppet company. One such Puppeteer came from a
51:46
very distinguished theatrical lineage and I don't know how
51:54
complex and let's ask the answer, but like I would like
51:58
ideally the name of the Puppeteer and the explanation of
52:03
her distinguished theatrical lineage that I just gave you a
52:06
gender. So that narrows it down I should
52:12
have known, you were going to come up with a question that I
52:15
had. Absolutely no idea about this is
52:17
something we discussed at length on my paternity, so that,
52:20
that's, that's how I feel. Like, it's fair, I have listened
52:22
to, every single episode of Muppet turgi, okay?
52:25
But there is one that I fell asleep in the middle of.
52:30
Oh, which one the problem is? I don't remember.
52:33
I actually I didn't just all of them over the span of a week
52:37
because I hadn't started it. And I kept being like, I need to
52:40
start it. I need to started.
52:41
I need Start it and then I was just doing chores around the
52:44
apartment and I was like I could probably just knock these all
52:47
out in a week like um, so I don't remember which one it was
52:50
but I'm gonna hope it was the one that I slept through that, I
52:54
am missing. Yeah, I got nothing. if they
53:01
need, you know, It's whoever plays Cynthia birdly and the
53:05
duck. That's correct.
53:07
I did. I did listen to that episode.
53:09
I was awake for like blanking on her name which I feel bad about
53:13
its Cynthia, something right? Like Cynthia Adler and she's
53:16
from the Adler Theater, Royal Family, which includes Stella
53:19
Adler the great acting teacher and all the Yiddish theater
53:23
Adler's. All right, Andre Anthony you've
53:26
earned yourself 10 points. That was a perfectly fair
53:28
question especially because I did listen to that episode.
53:31
Wait Lily goo. Oh, I'm sorry.
53:34
David, I wrote down 10 points under David.
53:40
I just said Anthony because Anthony said, Cynthia bird.
53:44
Like Anthony. Does I'm the one with the hat?
53:46
Yeah. All right.
53:49
Anthony. Would you like to ask me a
53:51
question? I would.
53:52
So we all know that Beaker wasn't introduced until season
53:56
two of The Muppet Show, but in season one, there were only four
54:01
Muppet Labs sketches. the two of them feature characters other
54:06
than Bunsen, So, what I want you to tell me is of the two
54:11
sketches that only have Bunsen alone with no other co-star?
54:17
What what is the premise of at least one of those two months
54:22
and solo sketchy. Here's the problem.
54:24
You are, you picked the wrong host.
54:27
To ask this question too, because my my first article for
54:32
tough pigs, I watched every single Muppet skin Muppet Labs
54:36
sketch, back to back to back. And there are four Muppet Labs
54:41
sketches and season one, there are two that feature characters
54:45
other than bouncing, one of them is Peter Ustinov as the robotic
54:49
politician though. Other one is a weirdly
54:54
creepy-looking gorilla puppet costume but or agofsky.
54:59
There are two. There are two that don't I'll be
55:02
honest, one of them. I am blanking on right now but
55:06
one of them is the The tenderized plates and other
55:11
silverware. What is it that the meal meat
55:15
plate to? I don't remember the mother
55:17
Labs, all-purpose tenderizer is what it's called.
55:21
And so that is one sketch that only features.
55:24
Bunsen give me one sec. Give me one second here.
55:26
I want to see if I can remember the others.
55:28
Even though that is just the one.
55:31
Yeah, there's only one. There's only one other one in
55:33
season one. I keep thinking.
55:34
Edible paper clips that. I know that season 2.
55:38
I know because they're for that. Yeah, you're gonna, you're gonna
55:40
have to tell me. It is exploding hat.
55:42
Exploding scarves, Etc. In the poems that are in the
55:47
Phyllis Diller. And I can see, I can see why I
55:49
forgot that because that is one totally doesn't work without
55:52
Beaker being present, right? I feel like that's the one that
55:56
inspired beakers exist. Yeah the gorilla detector to
55:59
maybe like I feel like like that one it's like Bunsen is like I'm
56:03
not being dragged off by a girl that's so much money.
56:06
Your beakers being dragged off by now.
56:07
Yeah, it's a I can remember bunsen's clothes being on fire
56:11
but I couldn't remember why they were on fire, right?
56:15
Yeah. That is definitely not a, not a
56:17
good one, the Bunsen sketches, and season one, not funny.
56:22
I like the gorilla detector. I'll always have a soft spot for
56:25
that because of the Muppet Show book.
56:28
Yeah, that's exactly what I said.
56:29
I can give you the podcast. Yes, I'll tell you, the
56:33
tenderizer sketch may not be the funniest, but it's excellent
56:36
like special effects. Hearing so that kind of seems
56:39
like that's why I remember it because.
56:41
Yeah, I love live in the ladle. Kind of goes flaccid.
56:48
Okay, so we are moving into our final round which we call save
56:54
the word and this round Works basically the same as Final
56:58
Jeopardy, except I don't call it Final Jeopardy.
57:01
Because again I wanted to choose guy, smiling game shows.
57:04
So in this round you are going to wager any amount.
57:07
Of points. If you get the question and you
57:10
are going to send me the answer, using the chat, right?
57:13
So you're going to direct message it to me, make sure
57:15
you're not messaging it to everyone because then Anthony or
57:21
David will be able to see your answer and know the right answer
57:25
so you can wager any amount of points.
57:27
You're going to send me the answer and how many points
57:30
you're wagering and that will determine your final score if
57:35
you get the question right, you gain that many points.
57:38
If you get the question wrong, you lose that many points now.
57:42
Let's check the scores before you guys.
57:44
Start thinking about your bats. And let me tell you in the
57:48
history of hubba-wha, I have never had a game.
57:52
This close Anthony you have 63 points.
58:02
David you have 64 points. Oh no.
58:11
So it really is anybody's game and this this final final say
58:16
the word is going to determine it and do we get a category or
58:19
any kind of hinted what's to come.
58:22
So that we have some way to judge what we should wager.
58:25
You'll get to wager. Once I read the question.
58:28
Oh, Okay. It's not quite the same as Final
58:32
Jeopardy and the I mean, the category is the Muppet Show,
58:39
you've heard of it. Um so the question goes like
58:42
this other than Statler and Waldorf which named Muppet Show
58:48
character appeared the most often in Statler and Waldorf
58:54
balcony box, you're going to direct message the answer of me
58:57
and how many points you're betting.
59:01
It has to be a named character. You could argue the answer is
59:05
chickens, but it's that's a collective animal, not a
59:10
character. I'm stuck on how much to wager.
59:17
It's closed, it's closed. Yeah.
59:21
Yeah, if you do you think, you know the answer.
59:24
I feel like I have it narrowed down to two.
59:27
I also feel like I have it narrowed down to I'm sure
59:30
they're the same team. What is there a prize at stake?
59:34
There is a prize at stake. We do give prizes here.
59:38
Mmm. Know what?
59:42
I'm risking. That's the all right.
59:46
Both of our bets are in. I will say, one of you is
59:50
correct. One of you is incorrect.
59:54
Oh Anthony, you wagered zero points.
59:59
In other words, you are betting that David would get the
1:00:02
question wrong, David, you wagered 62 points.
1:00:09
In other words, you were hoping that somehow two points would
1:00:13
let you win the game. Anthony, would you care to say
1:00:17
which Muppet you put? No, no.
1:00:19
I was wagering that we both got it, right?
1:00:21
Let's be clear a little good. But apparently, that is not to
1:00:30
be. That's not how I interpreted it.
1:00:34
Anthony, if we both get a right then I would win, that's good.
1:00:38
If we both kind of wrong and he and Anthony wager what he needed
1:00:41
to wager to beat me then I would win.
1:00:46
So two out of three potential scenarios I win.
1:00:49
Let's hope that it's not the third scenario.
1:00:52
Well let's hope it is Anthony. Yes, I put Gonzo I put the Great
1:00:59
Guns. Good guess he has appeared in
1:01:01
the box. That was my second guess so.
1:01:04
Well did you were right on that? That David.
1:01:08
What did you put? My guess was Kermit the Frog the
1:01:13
correct answer. I need like a drum roll sound.
1:01:15
Fact, here, the correct answer is Kermit the Frog.
1:01:20
That question is one, when I was planning it, and muppet Wiki has
1:01:29
a wonderful list that you can find colorful characters, other
1:01:33
than Statler and Waldorf who have appeared in the balcony
1:01:36
box, and it has a list of all of them and I went through and
1:01:40
count it. And I was like, is it too
1:01:42
obvious? That the right answer is Kermit
1:01:44
the Frog and then I was Like no, it's the right level of enough,
1:01:51
Anthony Gonzo is not even in the running.
1:01:55
I think he's only been in there twice.
1:01:57
I think that is that that that clip of him find his motorcycle
1:02:01
up. There is his bear is
1:02:03
oft-repeated. Yeah.
1:02:04
That's also in general like if you think who is a muppet who
1:02:07
gets flung from the stage the most you think that.
1:02:10
But this the number two, the runner up is one that neither of
1:02:14
you guessed but makes me proud. The most sense it's fuzzy
1:02:18
because of so many jokes about like turnabout you know, like we
1:02:23
should carry and wine shop that happened in one of the episodes
1:02:26
that watch today. Yeah, other other ones who had
1:02:30
surprisingly High numbers, crazy, Harry Frazee Harry and
1:02:35
the Swedish Chef is up there. A little too is one of the
1:02:38
higher ones, if I recall so, congratulations, David.
1:02:45
Prizes your choices include a previously owned gorilla
1:02:55
detector. Or has it been refurbished know
1:02:59
now or this painting of The Muppet Show character.
1:03:10
I would have been so devastated if Anthony one that hears the
1:03:15
things like hey I already have an original Evan sketch.
1:03:19
It's it's Brule the minstrel as a party.
1:03:22
Guest ahead, Fred nephew Fred's party and Muppet Christmas
1:03:25
Carol. And to wake if I'd won that I
1:03:28
would have let you have that. That's like absolutely going in
1:03:32
a frame of mind thing. It's it's normally actually
1:03:37
operate behind me, but we just had our baby.
1:03:40
Refundable. We haven't put out a bunch of
1:03:42
that stuff yet and that brings us to the end of another one,
1:03:45
David Anthony. Where can people find you?
1:03:47
If you wish to be found David? I am on pretty much all of the
1:03:50
social medias, as it's the levy. Like it's delightful, it's
1:03:54
delicious, it's alevi, and also a Trumpeter g.com and wherever
1:03:59
find podcasts are distributed. All right, and Anthony, I am
1:04:04
mostly off of public social media.
1:04:06
These days, you can always follow me on letterboxed if you
1:04:09
want it. Read my ramblings about movies.
1:04:12
I'm at Zippo Marxist on there and we should be back.
1:04:17
Hopefully, by the time this is out, we'll be we'll be charging
1:04:20
into another season of moving right along the movie podcast
1:04:25
where we watch two minutes at a time.
1:04:27
We'll doing some specials. We probably have already done a
1:04:30
celebration of 30 years recently or I don't know Muppets at Walt
1:04:34
Disney World. Look out for those.
1:04:35
Can you believe? I've never seen a celebration of
1:04:37
30 years, it's on YouTube. I know.
1:04:40
Also never seen go to the movies or Muppets, go Hollywood and
1:04:43
those are on YouTube as well. Here's the thing.
1:04:46
Go Hollywood is garbage. Well, but and that was actually
1:04:53
one of our most fun bonus episodes on the podcast because
1:04:55
they like, maybe the my least favorite.
1:04:58
Jim Henson Europe, Muppet thing. I listen to, I just don't, but
1:05:03
go to the movies. Great, go to.
1:05:04
The movies is just the double Link episode of The Muppet Show.
1:05:07
It's have that on a bootleg DVD from Israel.
1:05:10
It's just one of those things. That's just one of those things.
1:05:12
That's just so weird, because like, I mean, Anthony, you know,
1:05:16
me better but like, I'm so obsessive about this stuff and I
1:05:19
have like, such a photographic memory for all of like, this
1:05:22
weird weird and just for whatever reason, I haven't, you
1:05:26
know, done those two saving them for a rainy day.
1:05:29
