Customer Reviews
Great puppetry podcast!!
I love listening to this podcast so much & hearing those great interviews from professionals in the puppetry business! Hands down to Grant for finding these amazing people & interviewing them on his show! Keep up the great work!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💯😊
Aspiring Professional Puppeteers Need This
This is what I wish I could have found years ago. When I first began my journey to become a professional puppeteer I was thirsty for information and inspiration with no idea where to find it. If you’re in that same boat, here’s what you’re looking for!
Fun podcast
I love what you are doing! Keep up the great work
