Glove and Boots

Glove and Boots is a puppet-based video blog. The two main characters are a red, bearded humanoid named Mario, and an anthropomorphic groundhog named Fafa.

Glove and Boots was created by Damien Eckhardt-Jacobi and Vincent Bova, who first started puppeteering in the New York subways in 2004. Realising that "Mario and Fafa begging New Yorkers for change" was not the way to do things, Damien and Vincent began posting online videos. Their earliest videos were a pastiche of early edutainment shows like Sesame Street and The Electric Company, complete with some music videos.

By 2010, the format received some changes in technology, and switched to a slightly older demographic, with more pop culture references.

In 2012, Glove and Boots won a Twitter Shorty Award for Best Videoblogger.
