Secret Histories of Nerd Mysteries: Ep. 64 Muppet Vision 3D

Episode 64

6th October 2021

Hey everyone, we are BACK.  First off, we have to talk about Crisp Rat as Mario, and then Brenda deep dives right into the history of one of Jim Henson’s final projects:  The Disney Hollywood Studios attraction Muppet Vision 3D.  We talk about Pizza Rats (not the one you’re thinking), have many references to undisclosed amounts of money, and how kind of weird it is that we all just accept that Muppets are real, and they interact with people now.  It’s fine.  Don’t worry about it!
