Episode 144 – Justin Michael on The Muppets – The Muppet Show Album

JustinMichael_SD

He co-hosts the Before You Were Funny podcast and Batman: The Animated Podcast.  Turns out, he’s also the first person to bring The Muppets to the show.  Another surprise first turns out to be a brilliant piece of work, especially given that we’re supposed to imagine animated felt for 45 minutes.  Not only are the voice characterizations typically great, but the sound design and the joke choices are spot-on, especially the kind you need to see for full effect.  It really holds up as it’s own piece of comedy work outside of The Muppet Show itself, and was a lot of fun to talk about.

Episode 81 – Eric Martin on Doctor Demento Presents the 1960s

Martin 2Eric Martin (host of This American Wife) is back!  It’s a two-peat, which isn’t a thing at all.  Finally, someone picks Dr. Demento – specifically “Dr. Demento Presents: Greatest Novelty Records of All Time, Vol. 3: 1960’s.”  Couldn’t fit all that into a handy title.  We talk about the good Doctor’s picks and the influence this album and what I can only assume to be a Walkman with the auto-reverse function had on him.
