SYSK: How Muppets Work

Because Sesame Street's turning 40, I want to rec an awesome episode of the Stuff You Should Know podcast: How Muppets Work.

The disclaimer/warning they give at the 1:25 mark is funny ("If anybody is really attached to...illusion...").

So many cool tidbits in this one! Plus, Josh and Chuck love the subject, so it's an extra-special ep.

At the end, they wonder what the world would've been like if Jim Henson had decided to be an accountant. According to Josh, it'd be "nothin' but war."

You can find the episode on iTunes or listen here.
