    It’s a show where two friends talk about something they love which is wonderful all on its own. They just so happen to love the Muppets which are a great vehicle to travel through time and television with. I’ve only ever seen Muppets in Space but I listen to every episode of this podcast.

  • Thanks!

    There are way more muppet things than I knew about. Thanks Matt and Sam for watching the terrible ones so I don't have to ;)

    I have now seen the complete Muppet Show, though, which I never would have sat down and watched without this great podcast as impetus.

    Good job guys!!!!

  • This show is an absolute pleasure.

    I’m listening to this show’s back catalogue in order (I’m up to the end of 1986) and it’s a real pleasure to listen to Matthew and Sam become muppet fans almost in real time and have some great laughs along the way.

  • It’s Mupptastic!

    Have you ever wondered what it would be like to listen to two guys in their 30’s talk about muppets? Well brother, neither had I until I found kermitment! Before this life was devoid of muppet chat. But now it’s all I talk about and my family is concerned! Matt and Sam are extremely entertaining and have excellent podcast voices. Sometimes they get horny for Miss piggy or other muppets, but don’t worry it’s totally normal. It’s also very informative and I’ve learned many muppet facts that I can ... more

  • Not just for Muppet fans

    This might be heresy, but honestly, I probably like this podcast more than I like Muppets. And now I'm at this weird point where I haven’t even seen a whole lot of Muppet content, but I know all these facts about the Muppets. 🤷🏻‍♀️
