Anne Murray
We could blame Canada for this episode, but that would suggest they did something wrong, rather than give us the delightful Anne Murray (a Canadian working in the American idiom). Though a “middle of the middle” episode may suit the beigeness of Ms. Murray’s catalog a little too well, she’s a game guest star and everyone seems happy as a dodo to have her there. We also have a game guest star, the not-at-all Canadian Amy Spalding!

She is a recipient of the 2023 Human Rights Campaign Visibility Award for the authentic, funny, and diverse representation of the LGBTQ+ community in her books.
Amy grew up in St. Louis and now lives in Los Angeles. Her latest novel, At Her Service, came out just last month and is now available in paperback, ebook and audiobook.
Among her proudest accomplishments is her previous appearance on Muppeturgy, discussing the Florence Henderson episode of The Muppet Show. Amy was our first ever very special guest star on the podcast, and we are thrilled to have her back.
