Episode description
This week, Anthony talks with award-winning filmmaker and journalist Natasha Lance-Rogoff about her recent book Muppets in Moscow which details Natasha’s story of bringing Sesame Street to post-communist Russia almost 30 years ago.
From the kidnapping of Elmo to AK-47s and assassinations, getting The Muppets across the finish line was more than a challenge, Natasha is incredibly honest with Anthony on what it really took–and provides insight on Putin and the Russia we see today.
