It may be January but June is busting out all over and we’re huckin’ the bejeepers with Leslie Uggams and Big Bird (of Sesame Street, maybe you’ve heard of it). We have our quibbles (here we come again) but what a delight after a couple of episodes we weren’t super into to have not one but two guest stars who are charming and charismatic and seem to really want to be here! Does Gonzo try to have sex with Big Bird, who is technically supposed to be a six-year-old child? Sure! Does he do it while on a date with Camilla, who he’s also weirdly coercive with? Do we have thoughts about Leslie Uggams’ lack of pants? Look, not everything can be perfect, okay? We get a Captain and Tennille number, some Dolly Parton, a dash of Noel Coward, Beaker lighting water on fire, Kermit throwing shade, the premiere of Bear On Patrol, and some real weird digressions into Leonard Nimoy, Bigfoot, Colonel Sanders’ herbs and spices, and a whole lot of 1979 TV. Listen and let love keep us together! https://muppeturgy.com/episodes/leslie-uggams Merch! https://muppeturgy.com/store
