How To Be a Ventriloquist! Lesson 1 | JEFF DUNHAM

A few years ago I released an instructional DVD of ventriloquism lessons called “How To Talk To Yourself.” It was included with my Little Jeff ventriloquist’s dummy, but that was the only way to get it! The lessons feature Walter, Peanut, Achmed, Little Jeff and myself showing you the ventriloquial basics in 10 easy parts! But who uses a DVD player anymore!? So because of popular demand, I have decided to upload all the chapters of this DVD so you too can follow along and learn the art of ventriloquism right here on YouTube! Watch them all!

When you stop practicing but the doll doesn’t stop talking

[DeesonJame]

Plot twist: Achmed is the ventriloquist, Jeff is the doll.

[MyRegardsToTheDodo]

You should release a book: "Ventriloquism for dummies".

[aloha_lax]

this is amazing. His neck isn’t even moving when he talks for the doll

[dylanhu]

"Anyone can be a ventriloquist"

Mute people: 🧐

[ThatGaijinFella]

Where were you when I was 12? I’m 50 now 😅 Fun to learn something new though!

[gasjebasje]

this oughta come in handy when i want to freak people out

[TSunshine]

Wow Jeff, you’re really good at teaching how to do ventriloquism! 😃

[gmman]

How to talk to yourself? Have a lonely childhood and ask for dolls...lots and lots of dolls.

[_kylie]

It's kinds funny that when the puppet speaks, I can see his throat moving 😂

Thanks so much Jeff, I just purchased my first ventriloquist dummy a little over a month ago, which I decided on Billy from the horror movie Dead Silence. He wasn't but a little over $400, but has already caused countless hours of laughter between my family and friends and your videos have made me able to bring my little scary buddy to life. That being said I really appreciate these video lessons! God Bless!

15 minutes in practice and my cat starts distracting me... I still got 23 minutes of practice though! I'm keeping notes too.

[your_mother_likes_geography]

that skeleton looked so creepy, but it was so much fun! Thanks for this lesson, I can't wait to get my own too!!

[johnathancazares]

I swear, you should teach us this in highschool

[charlieranger]

At 1:14 I said “A, C, ” and I couldn’t help but think of how to spell Achmed’s name and said, “A, C, Phlem.” And laughed my butt off. I’m glad I clicked the like button!

[mjremy]

Yeah, we can all become ventriloquists, but there is only one Achmed.

[milliestockham]

I’m literally doin* this in isolation it’s so good

[Ilovehallytall]

I am proud to say that ventriloquism is now a favorite hobby of mine, I still need to practice and I also feel like making my original characters

Mr. Muffins (AKA Muffins): A talking black cat that is usually...really ANNOYING
Flare: A talking dragon that wants everything to be burned or heated even tho he isn't evil, but he can be kind of a mood sometimes
Bobby Buddy: A robot that is extremely polite and positive, even if you try to hurt him (which will hurt you since he's metal) and yelling at him, he will still be kind to you, kind of like a best friend that is always there for you

[obalfaqih]

This is the best thing has ever happened !
I am a big fan of yours, recently during my University years I bought a hand puppet and I was practicing (I keep talking to myself but I enjoy it hahaha).
Now I've seen you releasing this course for free, how cool is that.
Thank you so much Jeff

This is really well made. I love how entertainment and education are mixed together. Learning things becomes so much more fun.
