    My Cincinnati PBS TV debut

    Thanks for watching the segment and for your kind comments. My wife and I work together to bring the puppets to the stage. She is the artist who make the puppets look good, while I write & perform them. Glad you like our stuff too, we have a bit of it. ;)

    PBS launches first-ever national 24/7 PBS Kids Channel via broadcast OTA and on-line

    I am with you on everything but Barney. Not my cup of tea. While we are thinking of classic PBS programs, I grew up in the 1960s and enjoyed watching The Friendly Giant.

    PBS launches first-ever national 24/7 PBS Kids Channel via broadcast OTA and on-line

    I think that this is a great idea. My children are a little old for the programs offered, yet I am sure that there are many little ones that will benefit from it. I agree that classic episodes of Sesame Street and Mister Rogers Neighborhood would be welcome additions to the line-up.

    Your Thoughts: "I Am Big Bird: The Caroll Spinney Story"

    A wonderful film about a great puppeteer. I thought that the filmmakers told Caroll's story very well. If you haven't seen it, please treat yourself to this great film. :)

    First rough custom puppet build

    Great puppet! I enjoy the character and think that it's great that you are making videos with your son. I made a few with my children several years ago, until they lost interest. Have fun, that is what's most important.

    My first professional TV PSA

    Thank you Chris. I was mic'd on location, and later recorded my dialog in the studio. Shooting on a city street was fun, but hard on the knees. I used knee pads and yoga mat to make things a little better. We had a few folks watching us on the sidewalk.
