I remember watching Lily Tomlin singing “Sing” on Sesame Street. I haven’t seen this in decades and I still associate this song with her more than anyone else.

Sesame Street was designed to be free to every child. While NEW episodes are still free and available on PBS, it's a shame that over 4,000 episodes stay locked up in the vault. x.com/ToughPigs/stat…

Happy #JewishHeritageMonth! Will Lee (Mr. Hooper) was blacklisted during the era of McCarthyism for being a Jewish actor and an alleged communist. Hooper was the Jewish representation on Sesame Street, and was the first positive Jewish representation for many kids watching.

Last week I taped a great Sesame episode of Hubba-Wha ToughPigs: Muppet Fans Who Grew Up 🐸 with @UnclePetunio…it was so fun to tape and I can’t thank Becca enough for being such a great host! It’s not out yet, but believe me, I’ll let you know when it is.

OTD in Sesame Street History, my mom was born! Just like me, she was a little kid who loved Sesame Street. The second video is us at the Jim Henson exhibit in the MOMI. Happy birthday Mom ❤️
