- [Foley] Hello-ee-o-ee-o to all my friends listening,
and welcome to
(kazoo hums)
The Sesame Street Podcast with Foley and Friends,
with your host, me, Foley, the sound maker monster.
(various zany noises play)
And my microphone.
(microphone thumps)
Mikey. - [Mikey] Warmest of welcomes, listeners.
- [Foley] Aw, that's nice, Mikey.
- [Mikey] Well, folks, I just love the podcast,
and all the incredible sounds you can make with your voice.
(Foley laughs)
- [Foley] Well, thank you, Mikey.
That's a very kind thing to say.
Perfect for today's topic, which is,
(Foley squeals)
kindness!
- [Mikey] Oh, kindness. That means treating people
in a caring, thoughtful way.
- [Foley] Yeah, it does. And always with respect.
- [Mikey] I respect that.
- [Foley] Like the way we treat each other, Mikey.
Being kind makes friends feel good,
and it makes us feel good too.
- [Mikey] Oh, Foley, would you be so kind
as to make some sounds that make you think of kindness?
- [Foley] Oh, sure. Okay. Let's see. Oh, okay, okay.
Holding the door for someone can be kind.
(Door opens)
- [Mikey] Oh yes. It's so considerate
to hold the door for someone.
- [Foley] And the sound of sharing a happy song with someone
can also be kind.
(Foley whistles)
- [Mikey] Oh, that whistling makes me happy.
- [Foley] Oh, and what about this?
The sound of hugging my best friend, Mikey.
(Foley squeals)
(Mikey hums)
- [Mikey] Hugs.
- [Foley] And today's special guest is an expert hugger too.
Whether it's taking turns, sharing toys,
or reminding friends he loves them,
today's guest knows a lot about being kind. It's Elmo.
(Jazzy intro music)
- [Elmo] Do-did-o-did-o.
(Elmo laughs)
Hello everybody! Hello Foley, hello Mikey.
- [Foley] Welcome, welcome Elmo.
- [Mikey] What's up, E?
- [Elmo] Elmo is so happy to be back
on the podcast with Foley and friends.
Elmo thinks kindness is the most important thing.
- [Mikey] I agree, Little E.
- [Foley] Same here.
So Elmo, what do you think are some ways you can be kind?
- [Elmo] Well, Elmo thinks you could hold someone's hand
when they feel sad.
- [Mikey] Or their mic stand,
(drum beats)
just saying.
- [Foley] Aw, yeah!
- [Elmo] And, you can listen, and remember to say please
and thank you, so friends always feel appreciated.
- [Mikey] Please go on.
- [Elmo] And you can share something
with friends that might make them feel happy,
like a song.
- [Mikey] Yes. A song.
- [Elmo] Yeah. Yeah. Elmo knows a special song
all about kindness. Do you wanna hear it?
- [Foley] Oh, yes! Oh please, please, please.
This is so exciting!

who's right here. Take it away, Elmo.
- [Elmo] Thank you! Okay, see if you can say this:
Now, it's a little tricky. And your tongue might
get all twisted. That's why it's called
a tongue twister. Ready to try?
- [Mikey] Ready!
- [Elmo] Kindly kittens knitting mittens keep kazooing
in the kitchen.
- [Mikey] Uh, cooing cattles, sniffling melons keep
ah-chooing and their itchin'?
- [Foley] Aw. Good try, Mikey.
- [Elmo] That's okay, Mikey. Your tongue
got a little extra twisted. But you'll get it.
- [Foley] Oh yeah. Let's do it one more time.
I know you can do it, Mikey.
- [Mikey] Okay. Kindly kittens, uh, knitting mittens
Keep kazooing in the kitchen?
(Foley and Elmo cheer)
- [Foley] You did it!
- [Mikey] I did it. That is a tough one, E.
- [Elmo] Okay. Now let's try it all together.
- [3 Speakers] Kindly kittens knitting mittens
keep kazooing in the kitchen.
(Foley and Elmo cheer)
- [Foley] But know what Mikey, I liked it your way too.
- [Mikey] Now that is kind.
(springs bouncing)

is brought to you by the letter "K".
