Hi-Ho! Teaching Time With Kermit The Frog

Quincy Jones, Ralph Lauren, Jack Nicklaus, Kevin Hart, LeBron James – these are just a few of the absolute legends I've had the chance to sit down and talk with over the years. But my guest today might actually hop over them all. Kermit the Frog was born in the swamps of Mississippi in 1955 alongside about 2,353 brothers and sisters. He's since gone on to star in both Sesame Street and the Muppets Show, plus dozens of TV specials and films.

Kermit is, quite literally, the most famous person... I mean frog... I've ever met. He's also one heck of a goofball with some great stories to tell and a penchant for saying circadian rhythm. In this sit down, Kermie (what his friends call him) and I wanted to do something fun that could get more people excited about watches. So we ran through some of my personal favorites, talking about all the differences between quartz and mechanical, complicated and not. This is something of a little primer for anyone just starting to get into watches. And, if you have a little one that you might want to encourage to get excited about a passion of yours, let Kermit and I be your guide.

And don't forget to SUBSCRIBE to our channel. Thank you!

[davisprince]

Unreal! Will be playing this for my classroom tomorrow!!! Thanks Ben

[P.I.S.OnYou.]

sounds like Dave chapelle is voicing kermit lol

[blaketaylor]

Kermit either hit puberty or picked up a pack a day habit... Either way, good to see Ben again.

Any olds remember how Barney Rubble just had a different voice actor one day?
That's what this Kermit voice is like. Poor Jim hahahaha

[sanjivrpatel]

Has Kermit suddenly got a penchant for testosterone, only the voice has drastically deepened

[dmntuba]

“Everybody out there needs some self care too”…40 years later and I’m still learning from the Muppets

[lanslarrazabaldemartinez]

Ohh!! Thank you, Hodinkee!

I want you to know that many of us grew up with Jim Henson's characters and how they helped shape us growing up. We cried when he died and some of us thought we'd never see Kermit again!

This made my morning. This made my day! Hi Kermit! Its great to see you again! And thank you Hodinkee for unlocking the beautiful memories growing up.

Just ordered my Kermit dealer said about two weeks

[gregoryloveless]

Oh my gosh! Please re-hire Steven Whitmire back as Kermit.

Kermit’s most famous homage is surely the 03 Submariner “Kermit”. Should’ve definitely had one in this collection.
