Katie Williams joins us on this episode from Bristol in the UK! We talk to her about what it has been like to come up as a puppet builder in today's competitive industry. She is a puppeteer and stop-motion model-maker who has worked at Aardman Animation Studios and on Wes Anderson's 2018 film Isle of Dogs. We'll discuss her process in networking, finding new projects, and building a portfolio while strengthening her craftsperson skills. We will also talk about her many solo projects, including the live performances Howard and Freak Show, ​as well as her studies at The Curious School of Puppetry.

All the way from "where the air is sweet," the guys are joined by Leslie Carrara-Rudolph to talk about her 20 years as a puppeteer on stage and screen - most notably Lolly Lardpop and Sesame Street's Abby Cadabby. We'll discuss how Leslie's time as a visual artist and a human actor on stage has influenced her work creating characters who touch our hearts.

You won't want to miss Leslie talk about the many performers who helped to bolster her; from Josh Gad (Frozen, Book of Mormon, Beauty and the Beast) and Paula Pell (SNL, 30 Rock, AP Bio) to Muppet legends like Fran Brill, Jerry Nelson, and Bill Baretta.
