Not long ago, Holly and I watched “Being Elmo,” the documentary about Kevin Clash and his work as a puppeteer, for a movie club we were running on our podcast. We made no secret of how genuinely moved we both were by Kevin’s story. That makes it, in a number of ways, awkward and upsetting to talk about what’s going on now. We’ve talked about how much we love the Muppets and how much we love Clash’s work, so it seems like any commentary we could appear to be biased.
