Good morning, Captain! This week the Puppet Masters of None are back at it with another Ben and Will watch a puppet series for the first time. This time, the boys sit down and watch long-running children's television series, Captain Kangaroo. This beloved series that ran from the 1950s through the 1980s was a staple for many childhood memories of our parents' generation. How will this American morning classic stack up to modern scrutiny and the space to carol spectrum? Is it any better than Howdy Doody? Will Ben and Will ever appreciate a puppet series that was popular before the 1970s? You'll just have to listen to find out!

WHO YOU GONNA CALL? Puppeteer, Actor, and Stunt Performer Kevin Mangold!!! Friend, have we got an episode for you! This week on Puppet Masters of None, the boys got the great honor of sitting down and chatting with Jack of all trades (and unlike us, master of ALL,) Puppeteer Kevin Mangold! Kevin was responsible of bringing the iconic ghost puppet Slimer to life in the franchise's latest installment Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire! It is so apparent that Kevin himself is such a fan of the character and the franchise, it was an absolute joy to sit down with him and talk about his experiences on set and all of the fascinating different things he has done over the course of his career. Of course, Kevin joins us in the hot seat for puppet this or that and has some incredible advice for those wanting to make it in the movie industry. Enjoy!

This week on Puppet Masters of None, the boys review the first ever Sesame Street full length theatrical film, Follow That Bird! This 1985 classic was important for many reasons, including Jim Henson and Richard Hunt's last Muppet big screen performances. While many look back on this film with fond memories, it just might surprise you what the Puppet Masters have to say about this CTW/Henson company masterpiece. WARNING: Blue Big Bird might just wreck your spirit and leave you a weeping pile of mush on the ground.

And now for something completely different. This week the Masters of None take a look at the brand-new puppet Netflix mini-series, Eric. After previous guest, Beccy Henderson, told us she had worked on it, we knew this thing was going to be special. We did not anticipate just how out of our normal realm of puppet content we would find ourselves. This dark a gritty 1980's cop drama is much more intense than anything we've ever analyzed. With themes of loss, mental illness, abuse and death, this version of New York City is about as far away from Sesame Street as you can get, even if it does have its own 6-foot-tall walk about puppet character. Does Benedict Cumberbatch finally give us a puppetry film for adults that doesn't fall into the same old stale trap of grossout humor and shock value? You'll just have to listen in to find out!

WARNING: This episode contains discussions of themes of loss, death, suicide, mental illness, drug use, trafficking, and physical, domestic, and sexual abuse. Listener discretion is advised.

WARNING: This episode contains spoiler for the Netflix limited series, Eric.
