Show Notes
The Disney+ subscription streaming service is taking heat over content disclaimers preceding selected "The Muppet Shows." Characters Statler and Waldorf's comments about Miss Piggy's size and others are deemed inappropriate, but Disney won't remove them from the collection. Other offerings from Disney containing warnings include "Peter Pan" and "Dumbo." And now, some of Shakespeare's works are even considered inappropriate. Next, the pandemic has led to many children not attending kindergarten. A USA Today report suggests that this could put us 20-years behind some other countries. Finally, Money Pit home repair guru Tom Kreautler www.moneypit.com announces "The MoneyPit Makeover Sweepstakes," in conjunction with Bob Vila. 5 prizes of $500 Amazon Gift Cards will be awarded to winners.
