Who We Know
Who We Know with Patrick Aziz is a podcast about our lives and the connections between us. The show is a bit like a game of tag, where one guest nominates the next, who nominates the next, and so on. This daisy chain of life illustrates how we are all connected in this world, listeners and participants together. So join us in playful conversations to learn a little about what makes us who we are, exploring any insights about life’s wisdom along the way.

Martin and I talk about his nearly 50 year career as a puppeteer, with 40+ years working on Sesame Street as Mr. Snuffleupagus, Telly Monster, and lending his hand in the early days to Jim Henson's Kermit the Frog and Frank Oz' Cookie Monster, among so many others. We discuss his early days growing up, working with Bill Baird, his development of the puppets for Little Shop of Horrors, and his thoughts on choosing the good path in life. At the start of the episode, he shares his true thoughts about his nominator, Brad, and toward the end, about his nominee, television director Shannon Flynn.
