Fun fact(or maybe not as fun?): Adolphe Sax outlived his siblings, despite his own parents thinking he'd die at a young age. Another fun nickname for him was "Sax, the Little Ghost", because he was in so many situations that should have killed him, but didn't. Another one that should have killed him: he slowly suffocated in a recently varnished room because he was sleeping in it. He lived, of course, but its still nutty!

I'm so torn because 100% the larger puppet is such a wonderful piece of craftsmanship and really allows more freedom in how it's used. And I may be reading too much into this, but to me the extra resources and effort in making a whole new puppet not only says they plan on keeping puppet history as a staple show for the foreseeable future (which is great because it is my favourite of their shows) but gives me a vibe that Shane is really enjoying making it and that makes me very happy. But on the other hand, the smaller puppet had a certain charm in its simplicity and I always enjoyed a fourth wall break when Shane's arms or other hand had to be visible or when the puppet had to do something clearly more complex than it was made for. I think there's always something that's lost a bit in things like this as they become more polished.

On the other hand, those Professor plushies are selling like hotcakes, they're still using the OG puppet for visuals, and it's likely hologram prof is coming back, so it's possible that the old puppet will still show up.

The patent must have expired. Again, don't know if it's legit, but the survival rate of people she gave it to was encouraging.

You had to do it in large batches and you couldn't use any plastic or wooden utensils or any coated pots/pans; it had to be stainless steel or I think ceramic??? And same with the container you stored it in- no plastic, just glass or ceramic. Why that would matter, I can't say, but just an FYI if you're going to try it.

Not gonnna lie, Steven looks like a clarinet player. And when his pic of him with the clarinet showed up it was undeniable, he looks like what you'd expect a guy playing a clarinet to look like.

I assumed Adolphe's frequent brushes with death were going to be illness related. Imagine being caught in an explosion as a child and being able to say, "It's cool, I've already been in a coma and been poisoned four times."

@MissPuppy468

I would like to believe that each near-death was contrived by different iterations of time travelers, and truly did kill Sax, but then, groups of time travelers from the horrible futures caused by the lack of Sax went back in time to ensure his death never happened, again... and again... and again.

Ha ha ha, wow... I really appreciate the fact you guys don't mind swearing. I swear that little, "what the fuck!" when the sax is unveiled had me in stiches.

I gotta admit that I avoided this series thinking a puppet show for adults seemed odd, to say the least, but I'm glad I decided to check it out. Immediately recognizing Shane was the madman behind the puppet got me interested, and turns out he's actually insanely good at it. Looking up at the ceiling and putting his little foot out there, fucking hilarious. That song was also extremely well produced, which was certainly unexpected, but hats off to the team, it was pretty glorious.

Fully choosing to believe all the incidents from his childhood was one of the people in his hate club learning how to travel back in time specifically to mess with him until he can’t make the saxophone.

If you guys do a debrief type thing and take questions about this show, I have one for Shane: how hard is it to sing off key intentionally? I’ve heard you sing well and was very surprised at how well you pulled off Instrument Prototype 73’s “horrible sound” haha. As a relatively new fan of Ryan and Shane, I love all the shows and can’t wait for more every single time. I need this to go on forever haha

I love the fact that while The Professor is talking about how child-Sax kept almost being murdered, the music in the background is Death’s song from the black plague video.

Sax suffering brain damage as a child makes entirely too much sense.

Adolphe Sax also invented the modern euphonium and tuba. That thing Ryan said about the bell pointing up is actually correct. He also made some of them with the bell pointing backwards so the army could hear it while marching. The brass instruments he made were called saxhorns and they’re pretty much all of the instruments in the modern American marching band.
