Ever watch a film and think, "Man. That's a bad puppet."? Well, we most certainly have! This week on PMoN, the boys are join by the one, the only, Aaron Smith (aka Will's film buff brother) to talk about the worst puppets in film history! Maybe we should have done this one for spooky season because man these films are frighteningly bad! From dollar store gremlin knockoffs to rapping alligators, to face-sawed-off sea monsters turned ghost babies (yes you read that correctly) these puppets are ...
Two great interviews back to back weeks?!?! What a time to be alive! This week, the boys get the amazing pleasure of sitting down and talking to professional puppeteer and theme park entertainer extraordinaire, Kelsey Ann Brady! You might recognize Kelsey from her work as Crow in Netflix's Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Return, or maybe from her stint as the American Werewolf in Halloween Horror Nights. Either way, has she got some great stories, and advice for us! As big fans of...
Have we got a show for you! This week the Masters of None are back with a true Puppet Master: Sesame Street, Little Shop, Muppet, and everything else in between puppeteer, Martin P. Robinson. Probably most known for the iconic Mr. Snuffleupuagus and Telly Monster, Martin has had his hand (pun intended) in just about every major puppet group under the sun. From decades on Sesame Street to the original and Broadway productions of Little Shop of Horrors, Martin has done and seen it all, and...
It's election season! Do you know who you're voting for??? Well, we here at PMoN are never disappointed with politicians because we have such a deep love and admirations for puppets everywhere!

This short-lived political satire show from the 1980's featured caricature puppets of some of the country's most powerful politicians and celebrities, and boy is it...something. As another edition of...

It's officially Spoooooky season, and you all know what that means; spooky puppets on PMoN!

Did somebody say cheap 3D tricks?!?! This week on Puppet Masters of None, Ben had the great pleasure of heading down to Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida to experience the great Muppet extravaganza that is Muppet Vision 3D! With all the rumors of its potential closing, (and these are JUST rumors mind you) Ben wanted to take a pilgrimage down to Jim Henson's last official Muppet project and relive the magic one (or four) more times. As the final performances of Jim Henson's Kermit and Rich...

Oh. My. Gosh. When Will and Ben started this podcast almost a year and a half ago, they never imagined the sheer number of amazing guests that they would have the privilege to interview. But never in their wildest dreams did they believe that they would be able to sit down and have a conversation with such an American treasure, the one, the only, LAMBCHOP! Joined by her big sister (and current performer,) Mallory Lewis, the boys get the absolute pleasure of asking a true American diva such ha...

I LOVE ADVENTURE!!! And so does Timmy the Tooth! This week, Ben and Will are giddy with excitement for one of their childhood classics, The Adventures of Timmy the Tooth! For those of you who were not lucky enough to be children during the glorious heyday of direct to VHS puppet entertainment in the mid 1990's, Timmy the Tooth was a phenomenal home video series starring the titular Timmy the Tooth and his friends going on fantastical adventures. And who better to walk us through a nostalgia l...
