In this episode of Subgenre, host Josh Dasal and his first-time guest host, producer, advertising director, and Muppet afficionado Nick Heim, get felt up - [insert Statler and Waldorf laugh here] - as they release their nerdy perspectives on the 1981 high-fashion jewel heist in London romp, The Great Muppet Caper, directed by the puppet master himself, Jim Henson, and starring Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, Charles Grodin, Diana Rigg, and a cast of hundreds. Topics of discussion include Henson and company's desire to elevate the craft of puppetry in movies, how a contest produced the movie's title, and the repetitive hilarity of Murphy beds and busting lightbulbs.
