Frosty Returns
🎄 Somehow Frosty returned. 🎙️ The Advent Calendar House is back open for Christmas in July as Donnie Storms and new guest Collin Murr from Scrooge: A Christmas Carol Podcast drop in seeking shelter from “Frosty Returns,” which despite the title, is not a sequel, and not even a Christmas special. From Lorne Michaels and Kermit the Frog’s ghostwriter comes a message about the environment delivered by the voices of John Goodman, Jonathan Winters, and a young Elizabeth Moss. 📺 You can find “Frosty Returns” on the Internet Archive. **** (00:00) - Intro (02:10) - Guest Histories (05:57) - The History of Frosty Returns (12:06) - Act 1 (44:41) - Retro Commercial Break (45:57) - Act 2 (01:08:14) - Act 3 (01:22:28) - Final Thoughts **** 💬 Topics & Tangents: An interview with story writer Jim Lewis (The Muppet Newsflash, 2007).
