70 Years, 70 Muppets: More Muppets Please Podcast

[The Count]

Welp, Entry #87 has been revealed. And this time it's another music act leader, Bobby Benson and his creepy-eyed baby band. So sit back and enjoy their musical stylings. If that angry brattish crying can be called music.

Hey guys, sorry for not posting last week's entry, I thought someone else would have posted it by now.

May 10 2026: Entry #88: Splurge, who scared off the horses when he wanted to pet them, will do anything like pull a carriage if you dangle a radish far enough out in front of him.
May 17 2026: Entry #89: Waldo C. Graphic, the fun-loving spirit of 3-D animation created either at MuppetCentral TV Studios or Muppet Labs depending on which source you go with, he's basically a metamorphic marvel of modern puppetry technology.

Well, Entry #90 was dropped earlier than expected and this one's a bit of a surprise. This week's addition is the owner of Wax Town Records, Penny Waxman. Maybe this release is due to The Muppets Mayhem 3rd anniversary? Or maybe because of the two major racecar races taking place today, they're just spinning around and around like so many record revolutions.

When it comes to the character herself, this is the one character voiced by Leslie Carrara Rudolph that I didn't recognize her voice as the puppeteer. And for some reason, if the Great Muppet Look-Alike contest were still being done I'd nominate late actress Sylvia Sydney (Juno from Beetlejuice) as her closest match.

Here are the next two entries.

June 21 2026, Entry #94: Clive Cahuenga, the Singing Civil Servant from The Muppet Show; and Gary Cahuenga, the ventriloquist dummy star from his own episode from Muppets Tonight.

june 28 2026, Entry #95: Gloria Estefan. Not the famed singer, but rather the baby penguin from The Muppets. Something makes me think this entry is meant to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the end of that series. Wow, it's been ten years since The Muppets TV series came and went. Yeah, we're due for another series sooner than later.

Quick Mupdate, Entry #96 is everyone's favorite theater owner... J. P. Grosse. So happy 5th of July!

Hi, popping in to drop a Mupdate to the list.

July 12 2026, Entry #97: Vendaface, so drop a quarter or exact change for a face-lifting makeover.

July 19 2026, Entry #98: Bill the Bubble Guy, you know he's always blowing bubbles out of the top of his head, unless he claims to shoot raisins to keep his bubbly schtick.

Well, can't say I'm surprised with this week's entry. Yesterday was July 25, and while that's celebrated here in PR as our Constitution Day, it's probably better known to the rest of the states as "Christmas in July". So it shouldn't shock anyone that Entry #99 are... The Gingerbread Men from "Sweet Gingerbread Man", featured in the Don Knotts episode of TMS. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go eat some oatmeal raisin cookies and keep these guys as intact as possible.
