0:53
Today. On hubba-wha our contestants
0:56
will be going on their own Muppet monster adventure with a
1:00
series of Spooktacular questions themed Around The Lovable
1:05
Monsters of Sesame Street and the Muppet Show.
1:08
But please don't run away because Kind to your
1:12
neighborhood monsters. They might be Harry and
1:14
sometimes scary but they cannot help it.
1:18
As always, these questions were written by me with help from
1:22
that amazing Muppet resource Muppet.
1:25
Wiki. And speaking of, let's agree to
1:28
play fair today, please don't, look at Muppet Wiki or any other
1:32
resource during this game. Anyone who cheats will be fed to
1:36
the luncheon counter monster. So let's welcome.
1:41
New folks into our monster Clubhouse.
1:44
It's time for our first round, which we call to tell a face
1:50
contestants buzz in to answer three questions about yourself.
1:56
Whoever buzzes in first will get introduced first ready.
2:00
Go All right. Patrick, wow.
2:06
So Patrick, what is your name? My name is Patrick Cotner.
2:12
And Patrick. What is your history with the
2:15
Muppets? Oh wow.
2:18
I mean that's a big question. It started as a very small
2:22
child. My Grandma had a lot of my aunts
2:26
stuff from the 70s and 80s books, and VHS is taped off a TV
2:31
stuff like that, and it just kind of grew and Grew From There
2:36
into an unhealthy obsession. And what Muppet moment or Muppet
2:44
thing scared? You the most, when you were a
2:47
child, that's a great question. Do you know who one of the
2:52
episodes that we had on VHS was the Vincent Price one.
2:57
So we watch that a lot so spooky Muppet stuff is like very early
3:02
ingrained in my head but the things that always creeped me
3:07
out that I didn't like, which aren't necessarily Early scary
3:10
and it's kind of weird that this is like the thing that I
3:13
remember just like feeling uncomfortable around where the
3:16
stalactites in the stalagmites that would like talk and do you
3:22
know one-liners and stuff like that.
3:24
I think it's in the Vincent Price episode, right?
3:26
Or the Alice Cooper one. It's in one of those two think,
3:29
it's Alice Cooper and Alice Cooper.
3:32
And it was a real honor and Vincent Price were on the same
3:34
VHS are on the same BHS. So it they're very intertwined,
3:38
my brain. And I just remember, not loving
3:40
those, and I remember them creeping me out.
3:43
And every time they zoomed out, I was like, oh, I don't like
3:45
this. All right, well, that's 20
3:49
points right there. Whoa, we do, let's move on.
3:53
See, here you go. Look at that.
3:54
You're in the lead. We got a nice comfortable lead,
3:59
Anthony. I'm going to ask you the same
4:01
three questions. Anthony, what's your name?
4:04
Anthony strand. Correct, although you said we're
4:08
welcoming me into the monster club house so it's a monster
4:12
Clubhouse. Then I'm Nerf.
4:13
Okay? I'm I'm Phoebe.
4:15
Okay. Patrick is the elephant who has
4:18
to come in and chase us in a circle like that.
4:23
Anthony, what's your history with the Muppets?
4:27
I have always watched them as far back as I can remember.
4:30
I'm sure I've told this on every I was going to say, I feel like
4:33
by now you have. But so I'll say this about
4:38
Muppet. This isn't this isn't the creepy
4:40
thing, but I remember reading the Muppet Show book as a kid
4:44
before I ever saw the Vincent Price episode.
4:47
And thinking Uncle deadly was the coolest and best Muppet who
4:50
ever existed? Even though I had never seen or
4:53
heard him in actual production. It's funny because, like, any
4:58
time anyone sees Uncle deadly. That's what they think.
5:01
And it's weird that it took the Muppets like 40 years for them
5:07
to realize that, like, it's very frustrating because he always
5:12
used to be very high up there for me, too.
5:14
I always like, oh, ankle badly. He rules here.
5:16
He's like one of my favorites and then you're like he's in
5:18
like four episodes of The Muppet Show, like he's like not really
5:22
in it that way and I know fine it and now he's basically a main
5:26
character but yeah like in the new stuff like and now he's he's
5:30
also I'll guess I'll come in with a hot take currently.
5:33
He has the same performer as Kermit the Frog and a million
5:37
times more personality than Kermit the Frog.
5:40
Yeah, I I'm not going to tread into those Waters right now, you
5:46
can. But I'll say this, I'll say
5:48
this. I think it's easier to give
5:51
deadly a distinct personality than it is to try to reinvent
5:55
Kermit the Frog. And yes, that's right.
5:57
Thousands percent and that's what I was gonna say is Matt's
6:01
great. Like Matt Vogel is it.
6:02
Yeah, he's very funny. But like, what are you going to
6:07
do with Kermit? 44 tournament?
6:08
Sure, it's also fair that they haven't really given Kermit any
6:12
good. Real, like he just isn't in the
6:16
Haunted Mansion really at all. And yeah, and Anthony as you
6:21
said, there's another question coming.
6:22
What? Muppet moment scared you, the
6:25
most, when you were a child? So this one I think is pretty
6:28
common but it's the sketch where Ernie and Bert are in an
6:31
Egyptian pyramid and the statues come to life to torment Ernie.
6:35
And he tries to tell his best friend and his best friend
6:38
disregards, his concerns out of hand and he slowly won't nervous
6:41
breakdown. And then Locked in a tiny room.
6:44
You know, four thousand miles away from home by himself with a
6:48
monster and the resolution is that the monster thinks it's
6:52
fun. I don't remember how I felt
6:56
about that sketch when I was a child, I was probably afraid of
6:59
it. It's one of my favorites now,
7:01
and actually for Sesame Street's 40th anniversary.
7:05
They did t-shirt design contest and I designed a t-shirt based
7:11
on that sketch. I have to see if I can still
7:13
find the design, but it's now one of my favorites, but it is
7:18
extremely upsetting when you are a child and like, we're an
7:23
article on tough pigs about that.
7:25
And I didn't even write it. It was it was by Stacey Rosen
7:28
who I believe has also been on this podcast she has.
7:32
Um but so like I know I'm not the only one, you know.
7:36
Anyway you also scored 20 points, there goes your lead.
7:42
Oh well. All right.
7:44
Well, now it's time for us to move into our second round,
7:48
which is a little Muppet Monster game.
7:51
I like to call this game is not about the little Muppet
7:55
Monsters. I specifically wanted to get
8:00
Anthony excited and then so specifically, this game is about
8:06
the regular sized monsters in the Muppet troop, I'm going to
8:10
ask you a variety of different questions about From monsters
8:14
from The Muppet Show some might ask you to remember names.
8:18
Others might ask you to. Remember sketches or details,
8:22
regardless, each of these questions is worth one point.
8:26
However, getting certain questions?
8:28
Correct will trigger bonus questions which are even harder
8:33
and worth three points each please wait until I'm done
8:38
asking my question to buzz in. So the audience at home can play
8:42
along Here we go. Question 1.
8:46
Jack isn't his name. It was his job in The Muppet
8:49
Movie Patrick sweetums, baby. Correct?
8:57
Sorry. Anthony.
8:59
It's all gone. I'm gonna apologize after
9:01
everyone that I get, right? I just want to make that clear.
9:05
They start easy and get hard. I'm aware that that was a very
9:08
easy, never heard of them. Yeah.
9:11
Sweetums who see ya? Question 2.
9:15
This monster haunted the Muppet Theater in the Twiggy episode of
9:19
The Muppet Show. Anthony Uncle deadly!
9:26
That is Uncle deadly question 3 the mean mama a brown furry
9:32
monster. Who wants Menace?
9:34
Don Knotts made one of her only to post Jim Henson appearances
9:40
in Muppets. Now during which segment did she
9:44
appear? Which of those recurring Muppets
9:46
now segments? Anthony, I do not remember so I
9:52
will just guess lifestyle. Only with Miss Piggy, it was not
9:56
lifestyle. I old with Miss Piggy.
10:00
Patrick any guesses, man, I'm just going to throw one out
10:04
there. Was it a muppet lab sketch?
10:08
It was not, it was, it was a segment on peppe's.
10:14
Unbelievable game, show the contestants.
10:16
Had to throw socks into the mean.
10:19
Mama, Mouth here. There was a bonus question here,
10:22
though. So you guys are going to have to
10:23
buzz in for the bonus question. Since neither of you.
10:26
Got the regular answer, correct. Okay.
10:29
What was the only other post-1990 production to use mean
10:34
mama? Patrick just gonna say Muppets
10:41
tonight. It was not Muppets tonight.
10:43
Wow, good guess. Okay.
10:47
This one is hard. Yeah it's probably she's in
10:50
Muppets racemania or something. She's not.
10:53
It's actually the dog City TV show.
10:56
No kidding. Oh wow.
11:00
The Ana the animated one know or they same show but yeah sure.
11:08
During one of the puppet framing sequences.
11:12
One of the characters has a nightmare and that is the
11:14
monster. He Dreaming about otherwise that
11:19
character is not in Muppets tonight or racemania or the 2011
11:24
movie. Yeah, characters like that.
11:27
It feels like it's such an easy one to use.
11:30
You know what I mean? It's like, you got the puppet.
11:31
It clearly is not broken down, if it's in Muppets now, I'm up.
11:34
Its now, and it has yielded. It has no distinctive voice.
11:37
It just yells. Yeah.
11:39
That's, that's a very similar Uncle deadly thing where it's
11:42
like you could do anything when a character, if you want
11:45
solutely. Yeah, question for this monster
11:51
who asked Paul Williams for anything cheaper is named after
11:55
a sketch where he tried to upset a little girl, Patrick beautiful
12:03
day monster. That is the Beautiful Day
12:05
monster. Sorry, question 5, while this
12:11
Muppet is referred to as Behemoth on Muppets tonight.
12:15
His current performer, Bill Beretta usually refers to him by
12:19
this name after bills, brother. Anthony Jean.
12:28
It is Jean. Question, six before their
12:33
return in 2011's, The Muppets the large purple full-bodied
12:38
mutations last appeared in which 80s Muppet production.
12:47
Anthony, is it a celebration of 30 years?
12:50
It is not Patrick. Can you steal?
12:54
Is it the Fantastic Miss Piggy show?
12:56
It is not fall. It is something you guys both
13:01
have seen the great Muppet, Caper really?
13:05
Wow, the bonus question was which number or seen are they in
13:15
Anthony? Thank you for buzzing again.
13:16
Hey, a movie. They are in.
13:18
Hey, a movie, they are in the truck of monsters in jail.
13:23
Yeah, yeah. Again another group of Puppets
13:27
that just didn't Up here from. Yeah, 2011.
13:32
I think they might have broken down, though.
13:34
I think they might have sure we built and I guess.
13:37
Also, they sort of got away from characters that like, don't
13:41
really talk and are just like a costume.
13:43
Yeah, you know. Yeah, and those guys don't do
13:45
much, they only, I think needed to rebuild them because they
13:48
wanted to redo the yeah, Muppet Show theme.
13:52
And speaking of this in question 7, this monster was glaringly
13:58
absent from all. All modern Recreations of the
14:01
Muppet Show Theme. Anthony, I just about set it
14:08
right now while we were talking it's Timmy monster.
14:11
It is Timmy, monster and Anthony, here's a bonus
14:14
question, what was unusual about Timmy's eyes in season 1 of The
14:19
Muppet Show? Eyelashes, had eyelashes
14:25
incorrect. Patrick, Can you steal?
14:28
Don't know if I can but this is I believe the funniest question.
14:33
Of all, I love it so much. Hang on, I let not, I did.
14:38
He have eyebrows. He didn't.
14:40
He had these giant goggle like wires that were seriously.
14:46
Like, oh, sure. Dinner plate sized.
14:49
He's only in basically, like one or two episodes that season but
14:53
you can see it in Ben, Vereen and Ben.
14:56
Vereen sings Pure Imagination, he walks out and he has these
14:59
giant like hula hoops. For his eyes and last question
15:06
of this round, which is again about forgotten characters with
15:11
reappearances. That's what a lot of these
15:13
monster questions are about. That's really what there is to
15:16
say. About a lot of these monsters
15:19
question, eight, the clodhoppers were a muppet Dance, Troupe of
15:23
full-body monsters, who looked kind of like Grover.
15:26
They only appeared in three episodes of The Muppet Show, but
15:30
they did dance with which guests.
15:33
Our on Muppets tonight. Mmm Anthony is it Paula Abdul.
15:40
It sure. Is the one who makes sense to be
15:43
dancing with strange creatures. I was going through every single
15:48
one, in my head. I was like, it's not this, it's
15:49
not that. Yeah.
15:50
I again I know you guys watched all of those maybe a year ago.
15:55
It's true. Yeah, that's true.
16:00
I mean I know Anthony watched all of those that I wrote them
16:04
all. Yeah I was gonna say and then I
16:08
know. Yeah you guys did a marathon.
16:10
I'm very Pro Muppets tonight. I love - tonight I think it's
16:14
fun. I think it's a shame.
16:16
I think it's a shame. How many characters they have
16:18
not brought back to use from Muppets tonight.
16:21
I think it's a real bummer. I think I think it was the kind
16:23
of thing that was there were absolutely some real terrible
16:26
parts of it and some parts that have not aged well.
16:29
Yeah, at all. Yeah, you know but and it's it's
16:33
also a weird thing where you talk about bringing characters
16:35
back, there's been almost a whole cast turnover since then.
16:39
Yeah, Dave goals and Bill Beretta are the only two
16:42
performers from that show who are still with them up.
16:44
Well, Brian Brian came back for Halloween, that's true.
16:48
Yeah, but I let me say this, let me say this, I want to take
16:52
credit for this publicly. When we did The Muppets tonight
16:56
re-watch, Brian. Was there bill was there.
16:59
And we went hard on how much we miss sound, John we've been so
17:04
hard and they were not in production yet for haunted
17:08
mansion and guess who came back. Well, Salen Johnny and I want to
17:12
take as much credit as I can for that will give it to you.
17:17
Thank you. I need to go.
17:19
Okay. Okay.
17:20
Now as my bonus Point time, yeah, they'll maybe you, maybe I
17:23
should ask you this bonus question.
17:25
Hey, guess I could give you a bonus point for bringing Yes, I
17:31
would love that, I would love that.
17:33
But anyway, as I was saying some of it hasn't aged, well, some of
17:36
it isn't funny, but a lot of it is really funny and really
17:40
clever and I feel like if they got a second season, I mean, I
17:44
know that we always say this about any, any TV show, that's
17:47
canceled whether it has the Muppets or not, it's always like
17:51
just got a second season now, but I do feel that way for
17:54
Muppets tonight. There's just so many like even I
17:57
mean I know that, you know, I'm leaving and not performing for a
18:01
long time. Takes out a lot of those like
18:02
big care. Like I love and Kevin, I mean
18:04
Clifford, right? It's true.
18:06
Yeah, I mean again and also yeah, you know, but I love film
18:10
and neuter. Give me more Phil vannatter.
18:12
I love, you know there's so many that it is like the funny thing.
18:16
The funny thing about filth and neutering here we are getting
18:18
off topic again huh? I shouldn't be surprised funny
18:21
thing about filth and neuter is I think the bookends yeah of
18:26
tales from the vet are hilarious then Every time.
18:30
It's like, the turkey that was in an oven.
18:33
I'm like, sure. This isn't yours.
18:34
Yeah. Funny, this part isn't funny.
18:37
Yeah, it feels so weird to like the bookend more than what is
18:40
estate? Yeah, well, and is hilarious,
18:45
when I think of Phil though. I think of my place from space,
18:47
which I'm also I love UPS from space and I that might be a hot
18:50
take. I don't know.
18:51
Not here. I know.
18:53
I do too not. Not in this recording.
18:55
So yeah. Well we'll see you know who I
18:57
get on next week? But I think he's really funny in
19:00
that movie, you know, I don't know.
19:02
I just the funniest funniest line in the whole movie is when
19:05
he needs to check Gonzo's copay. I'm fully the lobotomy.
19:10
Anyway, Anthony your bonus question in the last bonus.
19:13
Question of this round, which other Muppets does.
19:16
Paula Abdul dance with in that performance of Opposites.
19:21
Attract. There are one, two, three, four,
19:25
five other characters or groups of characters.
19:29
So the only one I remember is Cliff Clifford is one of them
19:33
and then I'll say, Andy and Randy Pig Thor.
19:38
God of Thunder, David, a hugs, oehlhof, and craney act.
19:46
Yeah, it's pretty hot. This is what he's cream.
19:48
Yak one of the pigs in space. Yeah, and characters, he's the
19:52
one who is a brain, who isn't a pig.
19:54
Sure you go. None of those were right.
19:56
Except Clifford Patrick Can you steal?
19:59
I'm gonna just throw in mulch. No, no, no.
20:03
So weirdly this sketch was like was a weird Muppet, Show
20:08
throwback because it also featured Sweetums in one of his
20:11
only. My think is only Muppets
20:13
tonight. Appearance dog, Lion and the
20:17
boss, the boss man. Yeah and Anthony your favorites.
20:22
The extremes from the Jim Henson our they were going Easy doin
20:29
the Neutron Dance. Yeah.
20:31
Hey, I didn't expect anyone to get that, but I just, guys, I
20:37
feel bad that I don't remember. All right, so nice work.
20:41
Let's move into our third game. The classic game of order,
20:46
Muppets versus chaos, Muppets and all things that get out of
20:49
hand. What's prairies problem in this
20:52
game, your goal is to State how a classic Muppets catch gets
20:57
resolved. All I'll set up a problem and
21:00
you are going to tell me how it gets resolved.
21:03
This time in honor of our monstery theme.
21:07
Each of these sketches, is either a Muppet Show, sketch,
21:11
involving some of the Shaggy Fierce Monsters of the Muppet
21:15
Show or a monsterpiece theater sketch from Sesame Street.
21:20
I will tell you, the setup of the sketch, your job is to solve
21:25
the problem by telling me how the sketch ends, you don't have
21:28
to get the Wording, like, I'm not looking for like a specific
21:31
wording. You have to tell me how it
21:33
resolves. Each of these questions is going
21:35
to be worth one point as always. Please wait until I finish
21:39
describing the sketch before. Buzzing in and revealing the
21:42
ending. This is the hole.
21:45
Oh, this is a pretty same. Here we go.
21:47
Question, 1 in a Muppet Show, sketch a woman sings.
21:51
I feel pretty while changing her face to look increasingly
21:55
frightening. This is okay because she's got a
21:57
date with Anthony. Another monster.
22:06
It is another monster. I will give you a point for
22:08
that. Anyone Patrick, do you remember
22:11
which monster is it? Beautiful day.
22:12
Monstered is the beautiful days monster.
22:15
I will give you a point for that question to in a monsterpiece
22:19
theater sketch based on The Sound of Music.
22:22
Grover is sitting on a hill, the hill turns out to be Patrick a
22:31
monster, you know. Wow.
22:36
I can't believe I made a monster the answer to every question?
22:41
No. Good guess go do that.
22:44
He can, you steal the hill, turns out to be a Snuffleupagus.
22:49
I don't remember. I truly don't know.
22:51
It's alive with the sound of music.
22:53
Oh, just alive? Yeah, it's just a live over
22:56
thing that I'm over thing, I guess we could consider Her, I
22:59
guess we could consider a hill hill that's alive to be a
23:03
monster half point. No question, 3 in a monsterpiece
23:10
theater sketch based on Little House.
23:12
On the Prairie, we find that a little house is Anthony on
23:21
Prairie meaning period on you know on top of prey Dante.
23:24
Correct and later under next to and then I think in and then she
23:30
says that's too silly and then Cookie Monster says little house
23:34
in cookie and then he eats that correct question for just just
23:39
re-watch that son with my watch that one with my four-year-old
23:42
son not too long ago it's on the think the 50th Anniversary DVD I
23:47
believe so. Is that the one that our friend
23:49
Johannes put together? Yeah, so, you guys are saying, I
23:53
gotta have a kid. That's what you guys are telling
23:56
me, that's the reason I'm not getting this.
23:57
That's why I had kids. All right, listen handsome, I
24:00
don't have a kid. I just have re-watched.
24:04
These recent? Yes, I have no excuse, It's
24:08
delightful. Yeah, I guess I'm my other
24:10
excuses. I write a muppet quiz show for
24:12
topics. That kind of makes sense.
24:14
The question for in a Muppet Show sketch, a big angry monster
24:18
Just wants to yell Huggle Wugga and won't let anyone say
24:21
anything else. A yellow thingy thing wants to
24:25
sing. You Are My Sunshine.
24:28
The big monster keeps attacking, but in the end, Anthony the
24:36
thingy thing blows him away with smoke out of the top of his
24:41
head. Yeah, he like turns into a
24:43
cannon. It's yeah, a little hard to
24:45
describe, but I'll capture question. 5 in a Muppet Show,
24:49
sketch Madeline. Kahn is enjoying walking through
24:52
the park. Pointing out all the beautiful
24:54
things. She enjoys dog lie and follows
24:57
her destroying everything. She loves Madeline starts
25:00
telling him all. Ways that dog lion is wonderful,
25:03
which makes the monster. Anthony one second earlier,
25:11
shrink he becomes tiny. What happens at what happens
25:14
after that? I truly don't remember, the very
25:17
end of the sketch though. So if you well, that's okay,
25:18
Patrick. What happens once he becomes
25:20
very small and I don't remember, I remember the sketch and I
25:24
would have said get smaller, but I don't remember how it does.
25:26
She eat him? No, she she hits him with her
25:29
umbrella and he follows. Oh sure.
25:32
Sure. Question 6 in a monsterpiece
25:35
theater sketch based on the 39 steps.
25:37
Oops, Grover climbs 39 steps at the top.
25:42
Is Anthony and exit sign. It is not an exit sign.
25:50
Patrick, you want to guess, flied, a slide I wish.
25:55
Unfortunately, for Grover a brick wall.
25:59
Oh, that's better. That's better than Flash.
26:02
And he gets very tired because he walked up 39 steps.
26:05
Uh-huh question. 7. It a Muppet Show sketch.
26:09
The luncheon. Counter Monster eats a talking
26:12
machine which keeps explaining its component parts as he Is it
26:16
when he is finally eating the whole machine?
26:18
He learns that it's really Anthony a bomb or some kind of
26:26
explosive. Yeah, specifically the most
26:28
powerful explosive in the world, we are told, which, I guess
26:32
means that the entire Muppet Show is destroyed because the
26:36
atom bomb existed in 1979 question, 8 in a monsterpiece
26:42
theater sketch called waiting for Elmo.
26:45
Obviously inspired by Waiting for Godot Telly, and Grover are
26:49
waiting for Elmo under a tree and reflecting.
26:52
On all the different emotions they feel while doing.
26:55
So since Elmo like Godot, never shows up, how does the sketch
27:01
end? Patrick do they just get up and
27:09
leave? No.
27:10
Okay. Anthony's.
27:11
You Can you steal they Telly to start showing his triangle
27:16
collection? I don't know.
27:17
No, the tree that they're waiting by gets bored and walks
27:21
away makes like a tree and leaves.
27:24
Now, guessing the ending to Sesame Street sketches is so
27:27
much harder than guessing the ending to a Muppet Show sketch
27:30
right now. I feel like my patrols like, I
27:31
don't know. They get eaten.
27:32
Yeah. Yeah.
27:35
Sesame Street. Yeah, a little harder.
27:37
Yeah. Question 9 in the Harvey Korman
27:40
episode of The Muppet Show. Fog is a Ferocious Beast trained
27:44
by a master animal tamer. SOG explains that in the ACT, he
27:49
wanted to ride this kind of animal but Harvey Korman was
27:52
afraid of it. Anthony.
27:57
Is it a pony? It is a pony, and last question
28:02
in this round in a sketch based on Hamlet.
28:07
Unfortunately, Mel, Gibson plays Hamlet, this is a monsterpiece
28:11
theater sketch. Anyway, Mel Gibson is troubled
28:15
by words, words words, his friend Elmo.
28:19
However, is troubled by. Anthony letters letters letters,
28:27
hmm, close Elmo. Can't read, though, Patrick
28:31
numbers, numbers numbers, no Elmo, can't read pictures,
28:35
pictures, pictures, okay, sure. All right, well, yeah, that's
28:42
one that, you know, I don't think they re are very often.
28:45
Yeah. So, but it was the reason I
28:48
remember that one. So vividly in the Sesame Street,
28:51
Treat unpaved book. They had the full transcript of
28:55
that written out. Oh yeah.
28:57
You know what? I own that book?
29:19
What's that noise? LOL.
29:23
Oh, it's frazzle here to tell us that it's time to play Beat the
29:28
time. That's right.
29:32
It's our special head-to-head round in this round.
29:35
The rules are a little different.
29:37
I'm going to ask a question with many correct answers.
29:41
Starting with Patrick, you will give an answer to my question
29:44
then we'll move to a knee will alternate back and forth until
29:49
someone gets a question wrong or Takes too long to answer.
29:54
Then your opponent will have a chance to steal if neither
29:58
player can answer the round ends, that's right.
30:04
This round is going to be about frazzle now mr.
30:09
Frazzle has emotions like the rest of us do but he has his own
30:12
way of showing them specifically.
30:14
Frazzle always seems like he's saying the exact same thing
30:18
which the subtitles on Sesame Street's YouTube referred to as
30:22
A last growl that thing can represent so many different
30:28
emotions feelings and phrases starting with Patrick.
30:33
You will each take turns naming something that frazzles laughs
30:37
growls, could mean, according to the classic Sesame Street song,
30:44
frazzle, there are nine things that the frazzle tones mention
30:49
that it could mean when frazzle goes So I'm gonna give you guys
30:54
a clue before we start. Most of these are emotions.
30:58
Patrick. Let's start with you.
31:03
Angry. Surprisingly, no frazzle is
31:07
never angry Anthony. Do you know, one of the ways
31:11
that what frazzles sound could mean?
31:14
Well happy? Yeah, they say glad, but I will
31:18
give it you for happy. Sure.
31:19
Glad because it Rhymes more easily with stuff Patrick sad.
31:24
Correct. Because that also rhymes with a
31:26
lot of stuff Anthony Grade is day that he ever had.
31:32
Yeah, I'm counting that as part of glad but Like that.
31:35
You sang it. Oh, so should I say something
31:39
else? Yeah, give me some hungry.
31:40
Hungry, hungry is one of them Patrick.
31:44
Now, if we said a word already, you would have told us if there
31:50
was another word comparable to it.
31:52
Yes, I'm giving you things that are close.
31:54
Okay. It's not like mad.
31:56
I don't know what that was. What I was?
31:57
Yeah no no no. Okay so we said glad sad hungry.
32:03
Hmm. Yeah, I apologize that you got
32:07
stuck on a sesame one here. I know.
32:10
You don't know that as well. Yeah, it's not as well but
32:13
that's okay. Glad said, hungry upset and
32:20
that's that's sort of the same thing.
32:22
That's sad. I know, I know not all of these
32:27
are emotions. Some of them are simple things
32:29
that you might want to communicate.
32:31
Okay, hello. Hello.
32:34
No not. Hello.
32:35
Good guess though. Anthony thank you.
32:38
Well, Patrick I'll give you one because one of them is yes.
32:40
Okay, one of them is yes, Patrick.
32:43
Can you gues another one? What about no incorrect?
32:47
No, it is not. Yes, no is correct.
32:52
Anthony. Do you have another up feeling?
32:54
Very sorry but I really must go. Correct.
32:57
Close enough, it is. Thank you for the dinner but
33:00
it's getting very late and now I really must go.
33:06
I transcribe these, as I was watching the YouTube video,
33:09
there are three that you are missing at this point.
33:14
I can call it if neither of, you know, Patrick do you have a
33:16
guess? I mean, Anthony, how are you
33:18
feeling right now? I mean, I don't know.
33:21
I like thinking about this song. So I mean I mean I mean I could
33:25
communicate how I'm feeling by going pretty good.
33:32
Your father Yeah, there are three left.
33:37
They are ways that you feel that are not, maybe not emotions as
33:42
like tired. One of them tired.
33:43
As one of them for sleepy. Yeah, kind of like hungry.
33:47
Yeah, the other two are like that.
33:53
No excited. Hmm, no.
33:56
All right. Anthony anything.
33:58
I don't remember the other two are hot.
34:03
Oh sure. Cold you would think but it is
34:07
not sleepy. Yes, that's very funny.
34:16
So, not sleepy. Get any clear analysis one, I
34:20
love that. Listen, I had to do that.
34:24
I thought it was. I got it.
34:26
Yeah, it's great. No, I'm all about it now.
34:35
For our final regular round, we are going to actually shift in a
34:40
way to asking about classic monster and ghost movies in a
34:45
round. I like to call mystery guest and
34:49
I'm glad both of you are here. Here because I know both of you
34:52
are movie Buffs in this round. I will describe an appearance by
34:57
a guest star, in a Muppet or Henson production.
35:00
Your job is to tell me which, actor, or actress.
35:04
I'm talking about in this guest star role.
35:08
What connects these actors together?
35:11
Is that the correct answer to all of these questions is an
35:14
actor who has appeared in a famous horror movie or a famous
35:20
house. Ween themed movie that maybe
35:22
isn't very scary, but fits into that million.
35:27
Each of these questions is worth two points.
35:30
However, if neither of you can answer, I will tell you the
35:34
spooky movie that the actor appeared in.
35:37
If you do that, I will let you buzz in and if you get it, then
35:41
it is worth one point because you needed a clue what we're
35:45
supposed to name the movie. If we can, if you can sure.
35:48
I'll give you an extra point if you can name.
35:50
Mmmmm a movie that the actor was in sure.
35:53
Why not? So keep moving.
35:54
Let's pick him up specifically a spooky.
35:56
Yeah we can't just yet any movie.
35:59
Yeah. All right, so as always wait
36:02
until I finished to buzz in, here we go.
36:05
Question 1. He was the master of a haunted
36:09
castle that Fozzie and Gonzo, rented, for vacation Patrick,
36:17
then some price that is Vincent Price.
36:20
I mean, can you name all spooky movie Vincent Price was a House
36:26
on Haunted Hill? You're gonna give me a point for
36:28
every one I can do because we know the Raven Pit and the
36:35
Pendulum. You still haven't gotten the
36:36
one. I wrote down though.
36:37
Well dr. Phibes.
36:39

36:44
Wait, was it Laura? Was it Laura for some reason?
36:46

36:59
Is it The Tingler? It was the flag but I
37:03

37:18
want to say oh it was It was a Liam party and they were like,
37:23
I'm just going to put on every episode of 13, Ghosts of
37:26
Scooby-Doo. Because there were only like 12.
37:29
Like there's there's 13. Is there an even 30 of them is
37:33
exactly. I felt like it hadn't gotten
37:35
there, because kind of about that, right?
37:36
Did some stuff. Anyway, so, funny question to he
37:43
played both of the Wright brothers on The Muppet Show.
37:50
Anthony. It's Marty Feldman.
37:53
It is Marty Feldman from which spooky movie?
37:57
Well, it's I mean Young Frankenstein?
37:59
Yeah, what you're talking about? I'm sure.
38:01
Yes, yeah. The which there's there, the
38:05
poster the tagline on the poster was the scariest comedy of all
38:09
time, which I'm not sure is accurate, but I don't think, I
38:12
don't think it is. I mean, I've seen I've seen
38:14
freaky and happy deathday and there are there a little scarier
38:19
than Young Frankenstein. I wouldn't call this.
38:21
Those scary to begin with but yeah, question 3.
38:25
She performed the voice of Agra in the original Dark Crystal
38:33
Anthony Billie. Whitelaw it is Billie.
38:36
Whitelaw from which horror movie Poltergeist.
38:39
I don't write notes in Poltergeist, not in Poltergeist.
38:41
Oh wait, no. I know what it is.
38:43
I'm gonna give Patrick a chance to steal.
38:45
All right. Okay.
38:46
Do you know which horror movie Billie Whitelaw is in?
38:49
Mmm. I'll say The Omen.
38:52
It is the omen. Whoa, that was, I fully pulled
38:55
that out. I just made that up.
38:58
Yeah, she wasn't she wasn't in Poltergeist you just scrambled
39:01
them. I've had I think I don't have an
39:03
excuse me. Um, so that has Elda.
39:05
Yeah. Because, you know about movies.
39:07
So I was, like, wait, am I ra question for Big Bird appeared
39:11
as a guest star on this actors short-lived sitcom?
39:20
Anthony Dan Aykroyd. It sure is dead and the spooky
39:27
movie is Casper where he plays Ray stantz, wow.
39:31
I'll give you a point for that. But that was not what I wrote
39:33
down but you're right. So it has nothing but not too
39:36
much trouble. Yes, that was the one that told
39:38
me that joke. Casper's a great pull though.
39:42
That's yes it counts. He's got a week and he's got
39:45
it's in that weird race dance, time frame.
39:48
Had a mustache, but most a chef that can I be candid?
39:52
I absolutely hate Dan aykroyd's Cameo and Casper.
39:54
That's why I think about it to be as so it's bad.
39:57
That movie is not good. Yeah, no.
40:00
I have it on VHS though for Patrick.
40:01
Am I correct that you tweeted today that you wanted Dan
40:05
Aykroyd to come on the George Lucas talks?
40:07
Of course, I do. I've gone out to his rep so many
40:09
times and I've said, he can come on for as long as he wants and
40:13
truly all we will talk about is Crystal had vodka, we will alter
40:16
in Crystal had vodka, Connor does Not drink, we will do
40:19
whatever he wants to do and every response we get is no, no.
40:24
Yeah. So I said, we're taking a
40:25
public. I said we're going to Tweet
40:27
Adam. I don't care.
40:29
You're the one. You're the one show that would
40:31
let him just just drink. Just talked about his vodka and
40:35
his weird thoughts about the universe.
40:37
We won't even talk just say whatever you want, man.
40:42
I'm your show works if you want to bring up that weird if you
40:45
want to bring up that weird thing that you said on Larry
40:47
King where you said, aliens used to come to Earth all the time
40:50
and then they saw 9/11 happened and now they don't come anymore
40:53
because they got upset with us. You can say that on the George
40:56
Lucas Colorado. Dan, there's a real quote from
41:01
Dan Aykroyd. Well, big bird was on one
41:03
episode of soul man. Um so a home improvement
41:06
spin-off. So yeah.
41:08
Yeah. It's perfect.
41:09
Our pilot situation, right? Yeah, question five.
41:13
She experienced a ton of emotions while running into Elmo
41:17
on Sesame Street. Anthony, Susan, Sarandon.
41:25
It Is Not Susan Sarandon. You know, I didn't have a Susan,
41:27
Sarandon question here, but I'd like to write one.
41:30
I wish I had Patrick. Do you know I'll see.
41:33
Jamie Lee Curtis. It is Jamie Lee.
41:35
Curtis my gosh wow. From the classic horror movie.
41:40
Halloween to correct. I was going to say she voices
41:46
the loud speaker at the factory in Halloween 3 season of The
41:50
Witch. Did you really is that true?
41:54
I love Halloween series and I do too.
41:58
I've only seen Halloween Halloween you've ever seen.
42:01
Oh buddy. You got to watch a Halloween
42:04
tree. Yeah, skip all the others and
42:07
just watch three that people talk about it being secretly
42:09
good or whatever. Well, the secret of Halloween 3.
42:13
Is that Michael Myers, isn't it? Michael Mouse is Michael Myers.
42:16
Isn't in it, and Halloween is a fictional movie in the plot of
42:21
Halloween. Oh, is that right correct?
42:24
It's a bunch of spooky masks. Yeah, it's very
42:27
halloween-themed. Yeah, let's watch it.
42:30
Um, I don't care for Halloween too.
42:32
But anyway, question 6, he played choreographer, Luke
42:37
fromage in, it's a very merry Muppet.
42:40
Smith's movie. Patrick Matthew Lillard, it is
42:48
Matthew Lillard from the horror movie Scream, correct?
42:53
From from the horror movie. She's All That Scooby-Doo, two
42:57
Monsters Unleashed. I guess I'd count that I love
43:01
that, I love that. Matthew Lillard is so good at
43:04
playing Shaggy and Scooby-Doo movies that he's been voicing,
43:07
Shaggy a Persona exam. It's so good.
43:10
Controversially, not in school, but in school, right?
43:14
now question, 7, she directed Telly monster as he tried to
43:19
recite little Jack Horner Anthony, so I don't remember
43:27
this. You said she directed him so I'm
43:29
gonna guess it's Penny Marshall. It is not Penny Marshall, but
43:33
great guests from from Hocus Pocus is what I was going to
43:36
say. Yep, I'll say Kathy Najimy, it
43:39
is not Kathy Najimy. I'm gonna give you guys a clue
43:43
that is going to give this away. Here we go.
43:46
The clue is the Silence of the Lambs.
43:49
Patrick Jodie Foster correct. It's not the actress who plays
43:55
Jodie Foster's frame in the Silence of the Lambs.
43:58
I was I was trying a Brooke Smith.
44:01
I should have said Brooke Smith the woman, the woman in the pit,
44:04
that's who it was actually the dog.
44:08
And last question of this round he guest starred on the March
44:12
13th 1976 episode of Saturday Night Live and was annoyed when
44:19
scred interrupted one of his sketches.
44:26
Patrick-man Elliott Gould. That's right now.
44:33
It's not. But, you know, he could have
44:37
Anthony, I guess it's Anthony Perkins.
44:39
It is Anthony hand. It's the the picture land of
44:44
gorch characters are in that one, a whole bunch.
44:46
They keep popping up throughout the episode and his hit horror
44:50
movie is, of course, psycho to I was the one I was thinking.
44:55
Not cycle. For the beginning.
44:56
Is he is he in cycle? Four always.
44:59
Is he a psycho for the beginning?
45:01
Yeah. Eyes.
45:02
And cycle for the beginning. Again, he got out of prison,
45:08
he's calling into a talk radio show chest and fast.
45:12
What he did? He killed his mother's boyfriend
45:16
and it's flashbacks with him and Henry, Thomas who played Little
45:20
Elliot in e.t. as young Norman Bates.
45:24
It's a maid We're talking about psycho for the beginning, a
45:33
movie, I want less than a month ago.
45:36
Let me guess. Psycho for, it's probably as
45:40
good if not better than psycho. Correct.
45:43
I'll say this. I think all three psycho sequels
45:46
are pretty fun. It's the same situation is
45:49
Halloween. I've seen the Hitchcock movie.
45:51
I've seen the John Carpenter movie, you know, but I haven't
45:54
seen any Is who will really good cycle to.
45:57
That's really good. Yeah, and it's, you know, right
45:59
it's from like 1983 or something like that.
46:01
Yeah, a million years label. And then there's also the remake
46:05
of psycho one right on baby saw that.
46:08
Yeah and he yeah Willie Mays may see here.
46:12
Let's do this. This is our fragile game because
46:14
go down the cast. Of course.
46:18
Okay Vince Vince Vaughn from my favorite horror movie freaky
46:22
freak. My yeah so my favorite but I do
46:23
real up Phil Up Baker Hall, Viggo Mortensen Julianne Moore
46:34
Wilson. Any other character in that
46:45
movie? Yeah.
46:55
It's Viggo Mortensen. Oh yeah, yeah yeah.
46:58
That's like you guys might have named all the characters things
47:01
perfectly but there's like the police chief's wife.
47:04
There's the doctor at the end. Those are the two I don't worry
47:06
about. Yeah, right?
47:07
Yeah, I don't remember. I also haven't seen it since
47:09
2001 Erza. But like, again, famously, it's
47:12
not a huge cast in that. Yeah, like, we did pretty good.
47:15
We definitely could have. Yeah, listen.
47:17
Uh, you know what? I'm gonna give you guys each
47:20
Four Points. Yeah, we're psycho for thank
47:23
you, evening us out. But since you each get it it
47:27
yeah, it does not matter. All right, well, what fun?
47:31
Now we're moving into the end of the show but now the points are
47:36
even bigger. This round is the anything in
47:39
the world prize gay because now you two are able to ask me
47:44
anything in the world or at least anything in the world of
47:48
the Muppet Monsters. Each of you will get to ask me a
47:51
question about those furry chaotic creatures.
47:55
If you stop me, you will earn 10 points.
47:59
Here we go. Patrick, do you have a question
48:01
for me? I do and - sort of there's two
48:04
parts to this and that's fine. That's fine.
48:06
Listen, I make my questions nightmares.
48:08
Yeah. Can make your question, a
48:10
nightmare. So there's a guy that I love his
48:13
name. Splurge.
48:15
Okay. Mallory might have the, we might
48:18
have the same question. Oh, I said to Mike, that's who
48:20
mine is about. I'm sure.
48:22
I'm ready, I'm ready. Have to I have to Majan it is
48:25
because there's not that. Okay, so Splurge.
48:27
Okay. Okay.
48:28
You're both gonna tell me the question and then I'm going to
48:30
answer both of them because I don't want to answer.
48:34
Well, we'll figure this out. Wait, why don't you hang on?
48:37
Why don't you take off your headphones really quick and will
48:39
confer and see if we have the same?
48:40
Okay, let me, let me, let me I'm literally going to turn this
48:44
off. Just wave your hands.
48:46
Great. All right.
48:48
Can you hear us? Can you hear us?
48:51
Okay, thank God. I'm so mine is Mimi.
48:55
That's news to different questions, different.
48:57
All right. Okay.
48:58
The rules are rules. Okay.
49:00
Are they two different shoes for different speleers, request?
49:04
Yes, this is, this is what I dream of at night.
49:10
Now I saw Splurge this weekend because Splurge is at the center
49:14
for puppetry Arts, is he really? Yes.
49:17
And I was very excited to see, so I was saying, I haven't
49:19
gotten out there yet, but I gotta go, the god wasn't there.
49:23
When I was, oh yeah. He's there and he's beautiful.
49:26
I'll plug this. Even though this episode is
49:28
coming out after your episode but the George Lucas talk show
49:31
was at the center for puppetry arts in Atlanta last week and
49:36
they had a special guest. Steve Whitmire.
49:38
Yeah, we went to the Our show is that this place called dad's
49:42
garage, which is an impromptu you're down there.
49:44
But Steve Whitmire was on our show and it was rad and I assume
49:47
by the time. This is up, it will be on
49:49
YouTube so you can probably watch the whole thing on
49:50
YouTube. I'll link it in the show notes.
49:53
He he brought Weldon with him. It was weldon's first in-person
49:57
live appearance and it was very excited.
50:00
Whoa, yeah. All right.
50:02
Well, Patrick I would love to hear your Splurge themed
50:06
question. Okay.
50:07
So as we know splurge Is a big purple man, man, woman, I don't
50:15
know Splurge. Yeah, I don't know, either
50:17
gender expression but there is one appearance from what I can
50:22
tell. Where Splurge is not purple.
50:27
Do you know what color Splurge was one time and where the
50:31
appearance was, okay? He was blue and not purple.
50:36
Okay? But I do have to name where yes,
50:42
And I think this is an all-or-nothing scenario.
50:44
We are 100% on. Yeah.
50:46
Listen. I I make it harder for me.
50:48
Yeah. I'll be generous with you guys
50:50
are sure. This is on me.
50:53
I'm supposed to, you know, be prepared here.
50:56
It's all on one of the talk shows, right that?
51:01
No. Was he ever on a talk show?
51:03
I guess. I'm going to say The Tonight.
51:05
Show incorrect. Hmm, 1966 appearance on the Ed
51:09
Sullivan Show. He's blue.
51:11
You got the blue. It you got it.
51:12
Right, ya know that I know because I've seen I've seen the
51:14
pictures. It's just trying to remember.
51:17
Sure. Sure, sure, yeah.
51:19
Like, you know, as you can tell from how I write these
51:21
questions, I will just sit on Muppet Wiki and just literally
51:25
click through pick, of course. Absolutely, that's the way that
51:29
I get these questions. But yeah.
51:30
So I remembered seeing him being blue.
51:33
Yeah, I don't remember Ed Sullivan, but hey, that's 10
51:37
points. Patrick, there you go.
51:39
That makes up for the frazzle round.
51:41
Well, Depends. Am I going to get a knees?
51:43
Oh, Anthony. You've got a Splurge question
51:46
for me. I do.
51:47
I do. So we all know Splurge.
51:49
Of course is a big purple man from his breakout supporting
51:52
role in. Hey Cinderella.
51:53
Um, shortly after his Ed Sullivan appearance, but 30
51:58
years later, Splurge starred in a picture book.
52:02
Part of the Jim Henson scary. Scary monsters book series, what
52:06
was the name of splurges picture book?
52:07
That he started? It's called new friend blue
52:11
friend. Yeah.
52:15
Is it is? It's called new friend, Balu
52:17
friends, wish his new friends. Blue friend is a slipper that
52:24
fell over a waterfall. From the human world into the
52:29
world of Jim Henson scary. Scary monsters.
52:33
But what's the name of the new friend blue friend because they
52:36
said that should have been my question.
52:37
If you think I'm bad and I say you can't have it it's like yeah
52:45
it's floofy. I should have guessed.
52:49
I like marbles better. Yeah, that really should have
52:51
been really. Should have been my question.
52:52
It's sort of you underestimated me.
52:56
You underestimated? My knowledge of Jim Henson's
52:58
scary, scary monsters. I think there were made in the
53:01
to picture books ever. That line?
53:05
No. No.
53:05
They did one for every scary. Scary monster.
53:07
Oh, okay. But but they all of the others
53:09
were original characters and the inexplicably Splurge, there's
53:13
not an ecstatic, because so we do know there's five, there's
53:16
five. Okay, there's a new friend.
53:18
Blue friend Norbert is no Z. XU B is short.
53:23
Now I'm going to skip one and then come back to it.
53:25
Zuzu is zany. And then there's one that I
53:27
don't like and this one is called smooches, a smoocher and
53:31
I don't like that one. Folks, I hope smooch got
53:37
everyone's consent before smooching them.
53:42
All right, well, let me quickly tally the scores and then we'll
53:45
move into our final round. This is closed.
53:49
Yeah, because I didn't ask you about floofy.
53:52
Yeah, so our current scores because you didn't ask me about
53:56
floofy or about smoocher the Smoochy or whatever death to
54:02
Death to Smoochy Earth. That's the total.
54:06
Yeah, so because you didn't ask me about that.
54:09
Our current scores are Patrick with 47 points and Anthony with
54:13
49 points. Whoa, whoa.
54:18
And that's including the for bonus points.
54:19
I gave each of you for knowing so much about the psycho remake.
54:23
That makes sense. Sure, it's a reimagining except
54:27
with very little imagination. Uh-huh.
54:29
Um very little imagination. Yeah.
54:31
Yeah. Speaking of I do, A transition.
54:35
Hold on. Speaking of things that probably
54:39
shouldn't happen. I'm going to ask you a real
54:43
challenging question in our final high-stakes competition,
54:47
say the word in this round, you can wager any amount of points.
54:52
The winner gets those points, loser loses them.
54:56
It's kind of like on that other show.
54:57
You will unlike on that other show?
55:00
Get to hear the question before you wager.
55:03
So now your question while he isn't a muppet monster Per se,
55:09
vampires are monsters in our favorite vampire is Count Von
55:14
count in various projects over the years.
55:18
The counts age has been given as different numbers.
55:22
However, most recently in a 20-17 interview with wired, how
55:29
old does the count claim he is. Neither of you are going to get
55:32
this exact but whoever gets the closest will win.
55:37
They're bet how old does the count claim he is in the most
55:44
recent interview on this subject?
55:50
All right, so neither of you got it.
55:53
Exact Anthony what did you guess?
55:56
Yes. 900 you guessed 900? Patrick.
55:59
What did you guess? I guess 3467.
56:03
The correct answer that. No one was going to get is of
56:07
course. Six million five hundred twenty
56:11
three thousand seven hundred twenty eight years old.
56:17
I do want to note, I did my research 6.5 million years ago
56:22
is when the first hominins developed meaning that the count
56:27
is one of the Earth's first, humanoid beings are your guesses
56:34
of your guesses. Patrick 167 is closer to six
56:40
point. Five million than 900.
56:41
Is I'm not a mathematician but I think I know that so Patrick you
56:47
win back your bet of 47, bringing you to a score of 94
56:53
points and Antony, unfortunately, you're 33 lose
56:58
losses for three but we will get you back.
57:02
We will get you back. I mean, I've already sent you a
57:04
magnet. Anyway, you sent me a magnet of
57:07
Wood Clapper. That's I'm sure did with 94
57:12
points. Ah, our winner and this week's
57:16
toughest pig is Patrick cotton or wow.
57:20
So sorry Anthony yeah it happens.
57:22
I put that last question as like a complete like it's anybody's
57:26
game. I like Willie thing.
57:28
Yeah, for sure. Like I said, I didn't think
57:31
anyone would get that. Anyway, Patrick you win your
57:35
choice of these seeds that We'll let you grow your own Cookie
57:39
Tree, okay? Or this very weird magnet.
57:43
I made of the mirror reflection of Grover from monster in the
57:48
mirror because I wanted to draw a monster.
57:52
No one ever had. I don't know how you could
57:55
choose in this case, let me tell you I've given you Sophie's
57:58
Choice, here's what I'll say when you said the seeds that
58:01
grew the Cookie Tree, I was so excited but then you held up
58:05
that picture and I was like never mind, I want that picture.
58:08
Well, congratulations, you have. The horrible nightmare Grover
58:12
that appears in that one scene of monster in the mirror while
58:16
the LOL. Yeah, I was upset that I
58:19
couldn't write a question with Wubba Wubba, is the answer here.
58:22
So I had to do that. And anyway, that brings us to
58:25
the end of another one so guests.
58:27
Where can people find you? If you wish to be found?
58:31
Let's start with Anthony well, I'm on two pigs.com where I
58:35
write occasionally but much More often I host moving right along
58:40
a Muppet movie podcast that is not on the same feet as this
58:44
one. But is another is we like to
58:47
think of ourselves as the flagship podcast of tough
58:49
pigs.com. I don't know if that's accurate
58:51
but we have the most episodes. I'm kind of like the offshore
58:55
Casino shit to fix this. The show's international waters.
59:02
Yes. Actually my esteemed opponent
59:07
Pat. Rick will be on moving right
59:11
along. Right around the time this comes
59:12
out. I think that was one of our
59:14
earlier guests. Probably.
59:15
Yeah, it depends. You know, I have to talk to Joe
59:18
about scheduling, but we'll work it out and Becca's going to come
59:21
on and talk about Michael. Kay, Fritz, designing Muppet
59:25
Monsters on our show. I'm sure am.
59:27
That's what I requested to be on, but other than that, I am
59:32
not on much public. Social media these days.
59:35
You can follow me on letterboxed at zip.
59:37
Oh, my This, if you want to read my thoughts on mostly old
59:41
movies, gee, I can't imagine why you wouldn't be on most public
59:45
social media these days. I don't know why you would
59:49
choose that. And Patrick, where can people
59:52
find you? Yeah, they can find me on

1:00:23

1:00:27
You don't have to be a Star Wars fan to watch.
1:00:29
In fact, most people who watch have never seen a Star Wars
1:00:31
movie weirdly. But Steve Whitmire zon an up
1:00:35

1:00:39

Also, if you're in New York or you like improv, I produced a
1:01:00
show called rat scraps, which is an improv show where famous
1:01:04
people come in and tell stories from their life and then
1:01:06
improvisers do scenes. Based off that story and you can
1:01:09
every Sunday, you can come watch it in the city, or you can
