Hi, fellow vents! I just had a random thought. As artists, and moreso as people, it is imperative that we build unity in our community. How best can I personally help support the rest of you in your ventriloquism journeys?

Comedian Ronn Lucas' mic starts talking to him on the 'Dick Clark Show'https://scoop.upworthy.com/comedian-ronn-lucas-mic-starts-talking-to-him-on-the-dick-clark-show-ex1

For those of you that have attended ConVENTion or any comedy or puppet festival, what are your favorite workshops you’ve taken and why? And if you could suggest a class or workshop to any festival or presenter, what would it be?

What's a ventriloquist without their dummy? Yes, yes "figure", puppet, side-kick, little pal are all applicable names of course. However, at the end of the day, pretty much every ventriloquist has at least one, and one we enjoyed watching. Who's your favorite one to watch? What makes them your favorite? Has that one inspired who you work with in any way? Have you been lucky enough to see this character in person? (In performance or on display?) Is it the puppet itself? Or is the performance the main driver? Maybe both? Of course you're allowed to have more than one, I know I do ,and I'll definitely be putting down more than one in the comments So, who's your favorite?

Hi, everyone! I’m currently in a ventriloquist rut. So I’m working on new characters. These are my two main friends. Any ideas?
