@@ink_the_wolfin6618 Thanks for the good wishes. Fortunately, I appear to be cancer free. I had HPV caused throat cancer; as I've learned, while highly treatable, it is one of the most painful & arduous cancer recoveries, (had my 1st surgery in July 2020, then chemo & radiati9n in Fall 21. I'm only about 50-60%. Something I've learning w/ great difficulty is patience. Many, many years ago, I was a professional athlete, & semi-pro in 2 others. I've broken, battered & torn up just about ever part of my body. Recoverying from physical injuries is a day-to-day progression; at most, week -to-week. What isn't explained sufficiently to cancer patient is it is a month-to-month ordeal. I've almost go as far as say some aspect are year-to-to-year. A month or three goes by with same horrid effects, (cancer recovery is actually cancer TREATMENT recovery.), then one day you havecan epiphany: ' Hey, I'm ______, anymore.' or 'Wow, _______ is beginning to function, again.' It is a long, slow slog, which somtimes doesn't feel worth it, which teaches one humility, patience & empathy for your fellow humans. May you never experience it; gain the positives by some other means. Regards, GeoD

it's because with the puppet Randy can be extremely more expressive than a standup comedian on stage, with his fast, flailing movements and ability to flop on his desk like he does near the beginning of this video. any standup comedian who would attempt to imitate his movements on stage would get CTE by the end of a 1 hour special.

[@amokriinprolgiid3409]

There's at least two people controlling the puppet. You can't control two hands and a mouth at the same time. And to be fair, we don't know for sure that the guy voicing him is one of the ones controlling the puppet in this clip. It's entirely plausible, but not guaranteed.

[@kilimenjiro3753]

@@amokriinprolgiid3409 …no it’s literally just one puppeteer. Notice how whenever both of Randy’s hands are moving they’re more or less moving in the same direction or are cupped together. The puppeteer is holding two sticks with his non-dominant hand - this is a technique most of the Henson puppeteers use (including Randy’s performer who has done some work with the Henson company). Also, it’s a bit odd to think this is a pre recorded track or done by a separate performer - there’s a level of movement in the performance that can only be achieved by the person puppeteering and doing the voice at the same time, particularly considering this is a standup act that requires a level of being present that would be next-to-impossible if it’s multiple people doing something. And even then, there’s plenty of videos of Randy performing live (including in the special this is from) of him interacting with/reacting to audience members that can only be achieved by a single puppeteer doing voice and movement.

I'm incredibly impressed by how accurate and "natural" (humanly) he makes the details of Randy's movements. Everything from timing to angles, small complex movements and flow - it's amazing. Especially considering that Randy is not a ventriloquist puppet: He (seemingly) does not have his big manly fist, wrist and big Submariner watch all up to his elbow deep inside Randy. He does not limit Randy's movements to only those of his head and a few rare and rough arm movements (like most ventriloquists and their dolls do) - but he operates Randy's whole visible body. And he can't control Randy only by ring or paddle linkages operated by the fine motor skills of fingers and finger tips. He has to make all these damn-near-perfect movements by much rougher mechanics, and instead of therefore limiting the scope of movements, he gives him a full, natural'ish, very active and granular body language. Including extensive gesticulation. For (most) ventriloquists, they do their act while being a full visual part of it. They can see everything, both the audience, the stage, and have full view of how their control of the puppet "comes out". With Randy however - there's none of that. He can't see what most of Randy's movements looks like, he doesn't have orientation and visual input on what "the audience sees", how the movements come off. So to achieve this level of precision and accuracy without having any of that "visual input" / visual feedback of the result / "output" of his controlling manouver inputs - that gotta require some wild amount of training. I know it's a bit gushy, but man - I don't think most people have any sense of the extensive level of practice and training it takes to hone this skill to this kind of level. It's absolutely amazing.
