  • Why? Episode 388- Craig Shemin on Jim Henson's "Sam & Friends"
    Jan 19 2026

    Created while Kermit was still a tadpole, "Sam & Friends" was a program that Jim Henson produced alongside his future wife Jane in the 1960s. That program led to the creation of the Muppets, clearly one of the greatest artistic achievements of the last century, if not longer.

    Craig Shemin, who has worked with the Henson company for decades, has written two books detailing this important moment in Henson's creative birth. "Sam & Friends: The Story of Jim Henson's First Television Show" and "The Sam & Friends Script Book" fill in gaps of Henson knowledge a lot of us are lacking.

    Throughout our conversation we dive deep into not only the "Sam & Friends" story and its evolution into all things Muppet, but we even got into some inside scoop on what life is like with Miss. Piggy, something Craig knows a lot about. As well as what kind of treasures Jim's archives might hold.

    Our interview with Craig is irresistible for anyone who's ever been a fan of anything Henson whether it be "Sesame Street", "Fraggle Rock", "Labyrinth", "Muppet Christmas Carol" or "The Dark Crystal."

  • Why? Episode 386- Transforming Your Life with Cassie Sobelton
    Jan 5 2026

    What better way to kick off a new year than by looking at how we can reset and find balance in our lives? We talked with Health and Wellness Expert, Cassie Sobelton, about her new book The Power Reset, what inspired her to reset aspects of her own life, and how we can incorporate simple but impactful changes into our lives.

    Cassie shares her story of overcoming seemingly insurmountable health challenges and the continued work she does through spirituality, boundaries, self-care, and continued growth and experience.. She's a highly respected pro in this field, but her conversation and writing is relatable in a way that even the "non-believers" may find something they can gain from it. Let's be honest, she put up with our co-hosts and even had tips that Luke and Heidi could incorporate into dealing with each other. Anyone who can help two co-hosts with zero boundaries with one another except state lines and the internet has to be the best there is!

    It's a great conversation, a lot of fun, and an inspiring way to kick of 2026! Have a listen and enjoy!

    For more information including a free sample chapter of Cassie's book, check out Cassie's website.
