Hey guys welcome to episode 154 with my wonderful guest Colleen Smith. Colleen

is an amazingly talented improviser and she's also an astonishingly brilliant puppeteer with the Henson Company.

I just am a huge fan of hers and I hope you guys will enjoy this episode.

If you've been watching any of the Amazing Paul F. Tompkins, you know, You Shut Up show, which I suggest you do.

She regularly appears as a puppet, multiple puppets on the show, I think.

Colleen, forgive me if I'm incorrect about that, but certainly the Red Squirrel, which is also one of my favorite things to see her use when she does puppet up, which is an amazing improvised live puppet show.

Okay, guys, that's maybe enough about me bragging about how much I love

Colleen but what can I say she's awesome and and I also want to just acknowledge

that I'm pre-recording a couple of these intros because I will be as many of you know often

Australia and New Zealand for the next couple of weeks so and then we're going to

get into Boys of Summer so I would say if you have strong feelings about Boys of

Summer that you know to be Los Angeles or San Francisco

base those are probably the easiest for me to try to get to. I'm sure you can

imagine there are people that you know I'm affiliated with as if I'm a

corporation that I will be going after and securing for Boys of Summer.

But if you have suggestions, of course I welcome them.

I want to throw a couple of shoutouts in here. I want to thank Natasha for your email.

I want to thank Pali from Twitter, who I met at C2E2 and has now subscribed to the podcast.

So hello. I want to thank Ken for your

comment on Twitter I think was about the Felicia episode and Nova for your

email and again guys because I'm going to be out of town I'm going to be

out of town I'm going to be catching up on shout-outs probably when I get back and until then I hope
