About this video

This episode of The Tiberius Show spotlights a true maker-at-heart: puppeteer, comic artist, writer, and storyteller Kevin L. Williams, creator of Muley the Mule. We go from first sketches inspired by Peanuts to building live-hand puppets, auditioning for the Jim Henson Company and Disney, and surviving on-stage hiccups with quick thinking and teamwork. Muley drops by to share the show’s core message—peace, joy, kindness, and a whole lot of fun—and we dig into how kids can start puppeteering, practice performance skills, and plan stories like a pro.
