Welcome back to the podcast which celebrates growing up as a child in 1970's Britain and the central part that TV played in our society then.

This episode is brought to you by the number 7 and the letter Zee which can only mean one thing; "Can you tell me how to get, how to get to Sesame Street?" Our host Oliver remembers his eyes being opened to US kids and hearing words like  "grouch" "trash" and "cookie" for the first time. We also remember the real stars of the show, The Muppets.

We follow them onto their own show and share fond memories of Kermit, Miss Piggy, Fozzie, The Swedish Chef and Dr Bunsen Hunneydew as famous celebrities were humiliated by the Muppets.
