Welcome to Jake's Happy Nostalgia Show, the podcast where nostalgia comes alive!

This week, it's another dive into the world of puppetry and show business with puppeteer and actor Brian Jones! For several years, Brian brought characters to life with The Muppets, contributing to projects like Muppets Most Wanted and the 2015 ABC Muppets series. On stage, he wowed audiences with Puppet Up!, and beyond the world of puppetry, he showcased his acting chops in popular shows like Community, Bones, Wilfred, NCIS, and as Chad in Disney XD’s Gamer's Guide to Pretty Much Everything. Brian also honed his comedy and improv skills with Impro Theatre and The Groundlings. Join us as Brian reflects on his creative journey, the magic of performance, and what it takes to connect with audiences both behind the puppet and in front of the camera!
