Muppets After Dark w/ Emmy-winning Filmmaker Ewan Gotfryd

Fat Signal

This week on Fat Signal, we're blazing a path through the career of Emmy-winning filmmaker Ewan Gotfryd. From Sesame Street and kiddie shows to working with comedy legends and creating award-winning flicks, Ewan takes us behind the scenes of his prolific career as a performer, director, writer, and producer. He shares what it was like to work on 'Star Wars: The Bad Batch,' how Tosh.0 influenced late-night talk shows, and the invaluable lessons he learned while working with acclaimed documentarian Michael Moore. Plus, we have the definitive ranking of which Muppet would be the biggest stoner (IYKYK) and more hot (and probably offensive) takes.
Thanks to all you degenerates for tuning in!
