Steve Whitmire

She was born in 1941.

And then he's not a god but not forgotten, but I learned not from the main list, but there's a guy born in this day, 1959, named Steve Whitmire.

He was born on September the 24th.

And since Jim Henson died, he has been the voice of Kermit the Frog.

oh i

do yeah i remember watching that when i was young like a wee lad you know and growing up and you know it's just even though jim's not here his legacy still lives on, and Kermit is still, to this day, is still ringing in my ears, whether it's Jim Henson voicing him or Steve Whitmire, who took over for Jim Henson after he unfortunately passed away in the early 90s.

And that's another one.

I haven't had him on the show, but I've met Steve Whitmire, who was...

Kermit the Frog, and Rizzo the Rat, and a whole bunch of other characters.

And he was great to me at Comic-Con because he actually whispered in my ear and spoke to me as Kermit for a few seconds.

I identify deeply with those characters.

And we've also got Steve Whitmire, Louise Gold, Catherine Mullen, and a cameo from Carol Spinney as Oscar the Grouch from Sesame Street.

I forgot about that.

And as soon as Peter Ustinov was thrown into the garbage, I was like, wait a minute, Oscar's in this, isn't he?

They even talk about, uh, the guy who plays piano for Rowlf, I'd say.

Steve Whitmire.

Steve Whitmire, yeah.

Yeah.

So i- again, it, it's a weird thing that I don't think they planned out very well because they are trying to make this document that is, "Hey, you're gonna make some Muppet stuff.

But I think he's a very good replacement that can do all the characters.

But yeah, Steve Whitmire, I grew up with him.

You did too as your Kermit, right? I mean, obviously Jim, but that was toward the later years.

He took over.
