Shiver my timbers and shiver my soul. The live Muppet script readings are back May 12th 2026 with Muppet Treasure Scriptland.

Today we chat with director Matt Wilkie, as well as Erika Ishii reprising their role of Rizzo, plus Siobhan Thompson who takes on the role of Jim Hawkins!

(This episode contains some cursing towards the end)

In December, Muppet fans got their first new Rizzo and Bean content in almost a decade. Now performed by Bradley Freeman Jr, both are back in the fold in both social media videos, and in the new Muppet Show special.

Recently our friends at The Muppets Studio asked if we'd like to help them introduce Bradley to world, and of course we said yes! So we sat down over Zoom to discuss his audition, working with your heroes, and of course, 'Blinding Lights'.

Who cares what the grown ups thought of the new Muppet Show Special? The kids are here, and they've got opinions!

Join Iris, Miles, Jojo and Addison as they discuss their favorite moments, singing rats, and what The Muppets should do next!

We're getting pumped for The Muppet Show special by getting some Muppet fans together to talk about how excited we are. But also, what we're totally afraid of.

Hosted by Joe Hennes, with special guests Becca Petunia, Drake Lucas, and Cameron Garrity.

Be sure to watch The Muppet Show, premiering on Disney+ and ABC on February 4th!

A new Fraggle Rock special just premiered on Apple TV, which means Fraggle Talk: Back to the Rock is back with another new podcast episode!

We're digging deep into the new special, scene by scene, to get the behind-the-scenes scoop on how it came together and what sort of Fraggle magic can be found throughout. Joining us with the insider info is Executive Producer and the performer of Gobo Fraggle: John Tartaglia!

PLUS! Gorgs laying giant eggs! Who is the Fraggliest Fraggle?! And a Very Special Cameo!

Four Muppet fans gather to discuss current Muppet events about the Muppets. Including the Muppet Show revival, the Jim Henson birthday event in NYC, and the Muppets' takeover of the Rockin' Roller Coaster!

The Jim Henson Company is auctioning off hundreds of items from their archives, including props, puppets, and more from productions like Fraggle Rock, The Dark Crystal, and Muppet Christmas Carol.

Naturally, we have a ton of questions, so we went to the source: Jim Henson Company archivist Karen Falk. Listen as we chat with Falk about how the auction came together, why they're doing it, and how you might be able to take home some Henson history.
