He looks like Glenn Beck.

Why does the dummy have iPod buds in? In 1984? It's a dummy; it can't hear.

Technique is among the best I've ever seen.

The jokes, on the other hand... yeah, not so much.

Hearing aids used to be huge, the ear piece used to hook up to a box about the size of an iPod.

More impressed by the pre-release viagra jokes. I guess Dan figured that they'd eventually invent a pill for that. Sort of like a pill for premature ejaculation, that I hear is coming quickly...

If you're ancient and live in the Phoenix metro area, you've probably heard of him, since he was a regular on the Wallace and Ladmo show for a while:

Nobody likes ventriloquism. Buncha dopeheads

classicalmurray: Nobody likes ventriloquism.

I have never understood the appeal. It's filed in my brain under the category "If Someone Likes These Things I Will Never Completely Trust Them," right next to Broadway musicals, poetry slams, mimes, and Jersey Shore.

Ventriloquists are evil. The dummies are animated by demons spawned from the damned souls of children who were killed in Satanic rituals and they stole their voices from sad clowns- which is where mimes come from.

In the wild, the ventriloquist has no natural enemies other than man.

If you die from the bite of a ventriloquist, you will reawaken as a ventriloquist yourself- a pathetic, soulless, undead shadow existence- a doomed creature of the nightclub.

Approves.

Maybe his jokes are better? I don't know because I didn't watch because his technique was terrible in comparison. See, the thing about ventriloquists is their lips and mouths are supposed to move as little as possible, not as much.

1)) He make the audience groan when he put the doll back in the box +1
2) He used a nice twist on the drinking water bit. +1
3) He used blue humor tastefully, in the promised vaudeville vein. +1
