The Muppet Show (1976-1980)

It's The Muppet Show, yaaaaaaaay! And also two of Heather's favourite things: short men and puppets. In the last episode, we featured two of show business's finest small men, Davy Jones and Steve Marriott. Well, hold onto your potatoes Dr Jones, for this episode we have THREE of show business's finest small men, from the worlds of music, comedy and measuring up to the height requirement for stormtroopers.But more importantly, we also meet The Muppets - a community of weird mutations who are so shunned by society that they're forced to perform humiliating sideshow acts just to survive. Luckily, the bleeding heart liberal elite (ie woke pampered celebrities like Rita Moreno) are on hand to try and lend this spectacle some kind of legitimacy. Something something snowflakes something something millennials.Ahem, sorry, I don't know what came over me.Please like, rate, review and share the podcast, otherwise Peter Sellers will get you.https://twitter.com/retro_tubehttps://shows.acast.com/retrotubeemail: retrotubepodcast@gmail.comTheme Music by Berlin Horse.
