Episode 38: The Jim Henson Series part 1- Sesame Street
It goes without saying that everyone who was once a child (and we hope that's everyone) has been affected and influenced by the work of Jim Henson. He was, without a doubt, the greatest puppeteer ever. We are going to take the next few shows to pay tribute to Jim and his many creations. In this episode, we take a trip on down to Sesame Street... and immediately go right off track. We speculate as to why Telly Monster is so damn nervous, we talk about why Oscar changed from orange to green, we try to resolve an irrational fear of number obsessed purple vampires, and we argue about if the ladybug picnic should be charged with arson. We also remember some of the greatest friends that a kid could have and some of the best skits and songs from our childhood. Sesame Street had a huge impact on both of us, and on millions (and millions) of children worldwide. It's a sunny day... sweep those clouds away and join the Retro Renegades as we Follow That Bird to where the air is sweet.... let's head on down to Sesame Street!
