As we continue these special holiday shows, this week's installment is titled "Scenes from Christmas." Along with the wonderful Muppet holiday songs we know and love, there are so many funny, deep, and quotable lines from these shows that it seems fitting to include entire scenes, not just songs! So here's a first attempt at that idea. Thank you so much for downloading and listening this and every week! It means the world to me that you’re here.

Pop Quiz: in which episode of The Muppet Show did John Candy appear? Trick question! He never did, until now!

Good golly, it's great to see you back for another great MuppetCast episode! This week it's all about the letter G, as @HeadshotHeather joins me for a Muppet List segment devoted to Muppets whose names begin with G. Good times abound! Here's the film that Grant Harding was talking about in the show's intro. Check it out and enjoy! I'm getting rid of (most of) my Muppet stuff! Want it? Would you rather see it listed on my personal website One Fan's Dream, or on eBay? Does it matter to you either way? Email me and give me your opinion! There's some wonderful listener feedback in this episode too. Josh Hankemeier found two Muppet mentions of peanut butter & pickles (answering a question in Show #223), one in Sesame Street, and one in Muppet Babies. Michael Lavergne shares a touching story involving Kevin Clash, and in it he mentions a certain blog post, which you can read here.

I'm very happy to welcome listener Millie Tirk to the show to talk about her relationship to Sesame Street. No, she's not a puppeteer, nor have you ever probably met her. But you'll meet her this week on the show, and by the end you'll be so glad you did.
