http://www.UnderThePuppet.com – Antubert Johnson saw an Aniform puppet on TV when he was a kid and made it his life goal to figure out how to build one. This episode I talk to Antubert about the history of the Aniform puppet and how he built one from scratch that he performs it regularly on the YouTube Show The Live Test Show.
