American Reacts - RANDY FELTFACE - Randy Buys a Bookshelf Off Gumtree

[@animalcharitychannel]

I have never been so enthralled by a puppet before Props to this guy he shows more emotion through a puppet than most actors 😅

[@MandyCaneLane]

Right! It is truly amazing!

[@StMargorach]

The whole set is quite good. He keeps trying to read from a book, but gets distracted every time by stories/jokes he wants to share

[@Neyonius]

@@StMargorach He's not distracted, he's scared. That whole special is about just putting your work out there for all to see.

[@rowdeemunkee]

Randy is the type of comedian that workers best with a good crowd. Audience interaction is important

[@MandyCaneLane]

Agreed!! 🤗🙌🏻

I saw Randy live a while ago, and he was just as good :) In particular, he's really good at picking moments to break the fourth wall and speak to the audience as a performer and not through the puppet. Really clever work, and incredibly funny when executed by someone with real talent.

[@--CHARLIE--]

"I'm staring right down the fuckin' aisle aren't I?"

[@QuayNemSorr]

Randy went from "Never heard of him" to "Best comedian ever" for me in like a split second. You should really watch the whole show. It's amazing. "Randy writes a novel"

[@Yagamoo]

yes thank you..i was just about to post that. Its hilarious that without watching the entire bit you literally wont get the entirety of that "randy buys a bookshelf" bit.

[@Dr_KAP]

I’m surprised how many haven’t heard of him but that sadly happens with a lot of our Aussie talent! I’m just glad that KZbin reactors are introducing him to the world. I absolutely love this and it’s so true about Gumtree- always an interesting experience 😂

[@YourXavier]

He tends to have that effect.

[@condor7964]

Someone in the comments of the the original video said that at 22:45 Randy suddenly snaps his head as if he spotted Morgan in the crowd and thus in a panicked reaction, he claimed that he just made it up. Believe that theory at your own risk, lol.

[@drakke125Channel]

The entire dvd movie is actually online I believe but I don't know if its still there. This bookshelf bit was basically the last 30 min and the whole thing is about 1.5 to 2hrs

[@chrsmcfrln]

I've seen a few reactions to this piece from male and female reacters. At the point he mentions Morgan will live share his home computer, the females always nod along with no expectations, but the males always freeze up with the exact expectation of what is about to go down!

[@brotherkhrayn3525]

I know right? It’s awesome to watch their faces drain and go “oh nooooo.” 🤣🤣🤣

[@tattoodude8946]

I love that Randy Feltface is popular enough to have his own Wikipedia page, but the man operating him is not. 🤣🤣🤣

[@MandyCaneLane]

Lmaooo!!

[@davemoss9613]

No, that was not him, that was Sammy J. Randy used to be part of a comedy duo with him.

[@RoarMohammedJohansen]

The story is extremely funny, and I am amazed about his puppet handling and management on a live scene, its really amazing. And your reaction is as always amazing :D

[@WaywardVet]

I absolutely do not feel robbed by the reveal.

[@chrisking6667]

The only made up part of this story is that it was made up. Heath (Randys puppeteer) has admitted this literally happened to him but he was worried about the repercussions at the time should he not mention it was just a made up joke.

[@shinigamiking8908]

When and where

[@gasdive]

That's wild. It's a switcheroo. It was actually satisfying when he said it was made up, because I hadn't been picturing Heath, I'd been picturing Randy with blood streaming down his felty face. So I'm like "of *course* it's fictional. Randy can't drive.

[@Brian-wq3qh]

Never seen or heard of Randy Feltface before but absolutely loved this 😂😂 I'd love to watch more of him with you 😁 I agree with you that the pupetry skills were top notch 👌

[@MandyCaneLane]

So glad you enjoyed! 🤗

[@stevious7278]

This part of a longer piece called "Randy Writes A Novel" It's a journey down a meandering path of philosophical musings as Randy prepares to write his first book. I say "journey"; more of a crashing stumble really. 😁 If you can spare the time I suggest you have a look. It is just as hilarious as this bit. And isn't it incredible how you lose yourself in the story and how he moves, and begin to see him as a real person (I do anyway). ❤&✌from Australia my fellow human

[@friendlyneighbourhoodsteve4087]

100% agree with your assessment on all counts. Btw, this bit comes from a longer (about an hour or so) set in which he is supposed to be reading from a book but keeps getting sidetracked. A couple of things he says in this make more sense when you watch the whole thing. Glad you enjoyed 🤗

[@MandyCaneLane]

Lol, I feel represented! Haha. 🙌🏻🤪

[@MandyCaneLane]

My pleasure! 🤗🙌🏻

[@nmp290765]

There has to be an element of truth to it. The details are just too convincing. I love Randy, never get sick of watching this. Loved your reaction as well

[@MWSin1]

Randy is just so amazing at creating a scene and drawing you into it.

[@KamelinJalka]

Thumbs up for this! I HATE it when people does reaction videos and pause in every 15 seconds. And I'm like "Can't we just WATCH THIS?"

[@Spanner1982]

randy's telling of the life and times of ernest hemingway is also brilliant if you get chance to check it out

[@kennethdodemaide8678]

He's a regular on Australian TV. Bloody brilliant.

[@MrTumshie]

I had never heard of Randy Feltface until about half an hour ago but luckily I have today off so am about to find out all about him. Thanks for that Mandy, I owe you one.

[@iantophernicus6042]

I love how one of the names on screen is Morgan. Also, Randy has a new comedy special out today!

[@jasongates-]

Puppet vaguely sounded like Arnold Schwarzenegger when saying that long one-sentenced text. He's a good story teller. I also feel robbed. ....... EDIT: After seeing the other comments, oh, good, I'm not the only one who never heard of him before.

[@SonniWoods-g2d]

i love randy soo much,i musta seen that one 40 or so times,i can nearly recite the whole thing

[@GaviLazan]

The puppeteer is so good, you instantly forget this is a bunch of fabric and not a living human.

[@aliengranpa]

One day I was watching clips of Chappelle (the master) on KZbin while playing PlayStation. The Chapelle clips ended and some random Aussie voice was in my headphones telling jokes and had me absolutely rolling. It was about halfway through smug druggles that I actually looked up and saw who the comedian was. I was instantly hooked and spent the rest of the week deep diving into everything Randy has ever recorded. He's the only comedian I have traveled hours to see in person and I have tickets already to see him again in September. Chappelle might be the master, but Randy is MY GUY.

[@aliengranpa]

Side note: your smile and laugh are extremely contagious, you should absolutely do more Randy reactions. Subscribed!

[@ElGordo1959]

That was absolutely hilarious. Hadn't seen that one. Thank you for reintroducing me to Randy - used to watch him and Sammy J way back. Aussie icon! 🙃

[@MandyCaneLane]

My pleasure! 🙌🏻🤗

[@kredonystus7768]

There is so much you miss by not watching the full special, the whole thing is set up to be a musing on what is fiction. It's brilliant.

[@SaintPhoenixx]

He's great, his puppetry is so natural (even doing the 'off-the-cuff' bits where he mis-speaks or ad-libs something), you obviously don't believe he's a real person but you still feel like he has a whole personality. He's not just a prop to tell jokes like a lot of other ventrioquists and puppets, he's a full character.

[@ianalsop5080]

I love Randy,he has some of the best stand up I've seen.

[@ghostradiodelete]

Randy is my favorite. There's not enough clips of Randy or specials to sustain me, I need more. D=

[@Liam_Oliver]

Happily surprised to see you cover this. Randy is an *excellent* story teller and this is from the full show 'Randy Writes a Novel' which he threatens to read from before he braves publishing, although he keeps going off on tangents and never quite gets around to it, this story is part of his procrastination, the dig at Hemmingway is reference to an earlier part (which was always an excuse to procrastinate). 'Smug Druggles' and 'Purple Privilege' are other full shows on his own KZbin channel which are also also hucking filarious... Although in true Aussie style he swears like a sailor, so be warned (although being an Aussie swearing it's more of a British way than just being crude). The earlier Sammy J and Randy stuff is also very good, but the more recent solo stuff is better if you ask me. I'm off to watch more Randy Feltface now, thanks! 👍🏻

[@jordanhunter3375]

I don't think "threatens" is the right word, mayhaps "promises" or "sets out to"

[@dclore]

Now you need to see some of the songs he and Sammy J do - they're absolutely brilliant!

[@bipolarewok]

Every once in a while I look for reactions to this. It's been a few months and now suddenly there's four or five to watch. One might think I'd spread them out so I can watch them until the next batch of reactions come along but nope, I'm watching them one after the other, because no one was reacting to this for a long long time.

[@KC_rocka]

that was so funny, randy's such a fantastic story teller

[@MandyCaneLane]

Agreed! 🙌🏻🤗

[@tattoodude8946]

As a writer, that is an amazingly constructed story. He does a fantastic job portraying everything and the details he adds for color is spectacular. Truly exceptional story telling ability.

Great to see more people finding Randy Feltface

[@reverance_pavane]

I first encounter Randy when he did Forest of Dreams with Sammy J. And have seen all of his full shows since then. [The funniest one was when the set was actively collapsing around them due to an accident with a stage prop.] He recently tried his hand at running for the position of Mayor of Amsterdam on his tour through the country, since the water-board elections were on. He doesn't speak Dutch. If you ever get a chance to see him live, do so. It's well worth it. In about 5 seconds you will totally forget he is a puppet.

[@drbongorama]

That's one of my favourite comedy specials.

[@SirNightmareFuel]

gods I've never laughed so hard in my life. I'm kind of embarrassed to admit I actually somehow forgot that Randy is a bloody puppet because the comedian is so damn good making it lifelike and shit plus telling a damn good story. also, I just stumbled across your channel while looking for reactions to Randy. fucking lovely reaction content so far and it makes me hope you'll react to more Randy if you haven't already.

[@caphowdy666]

On a totally unrelated note, I know you like rock/metal music, so thought I would recommend a band to you, The Warning. A sister trio from Mexico (aged between 18 and 23). I have been into them for a while and they announced their first UK headline show today, so I have booked my first gig since Sept 2018. Between 1992 and 2018 I never went a year without a gig, and in later years was going upwards of 15 times a year, but last 4 years have been full of stuff stopping me going. You really should give them a go. Disciple is my fave song, but they have a lot of great tunes.

[@MandyCaneLane]

Thank you very much!! 🤗 And no, outside is also killer for me! Haha. Argentina is quite humid and I suffer from hay fever all the way! Back in California with the desert climate they have, I was better though 🙌🏻🤗

[@gbulmer]

​@@MandyCaneLane I'm only telling the truth, so "you're very welcome". You've taught me something new today! 😀👍 I didn't realise Argentina is humid. I've imagined it was fairly dry, but maybe dusty; like "Texas cattle country" in Hollywood "cowboy movies". I think the only things I've watched about Argentina are documentaries about cattle farming. 🤔 ----- prolix, but with a purpose ----- Do you know the UK TV show "Gogglebox"? Is there an Argentinian version? You'd be very good. Gogglebox began in 2013. It's based on the unlikely premise that TV viewers would watch other people watch TV!! It's a 'reality' show. I wasn't a fan. It seemed ridiculous. Yet it's popular! I eventually watched a few episodes during 'lockdown". I was surprised. There were often good moments in an episode. But, it was random. Each episode is reactions to one week of broadcast TV. The producers select (ahead of time) which programs their set of 'viewers' react to 'live' during each week. An episode is edited from one week's reactions. I like some 'viewers' more than others. I much prefer the YT reactors approach; I can choose what to watch with whomever I want. Gogglebox 'viewers' never "break the fourth wall" to talk to their audience,. So 'viewers' are always in groups of two or more, allowing them to share their thoughts yet still seem 'natural'. You're very good at "breaking the fourth wall" sharing thoughts, and chatting with your audience. I imagine you'd be superb at helping people think more deeply about great plays or works of literature by sharing your thoughts and asking them questions, or to share their thoughts. You have a valuable talent. 👏👍 So I hope part of your "day job" is doing something like that. Best Wishes. ☮ ----- PS: I didn't really "get it" when I was at school. However, I eventually realised reading a book or play in class with a skilful teacher enabled me to learn how to appreciate the literature more deeply, and in a way which I was incapable of when I read on my own. I'm actually in "technology". Yet, I feel learning to try to analyse literature at school helped me analyse problems throughout my career. People tell me I'm very good at understanding stuff. A sample of one isn't meaningful. 🤔 However, I feel sharing my thoughts with you might be helpful or encouraging. Sorry I took so many words. I haven't the talent or time to make it more succinct.
