makes sense VICE were there as they are puppets of the leftard liberals
Sorry I scared your child with my 'bird'…
This guy needs to go to a My Little Pony convention….
That kid with the old guy puppet looks like a Disney Chanel kid
Worlds biggest
ventriloquistvirgin convention.SO WEIRD
So cool! It’s a shame this video has a kind of mocking undertone. People who care about something, no matter how unique, are luckier than the rest of us.
Well, that was his first and last time up on stage lol
This guy is the best presenter that Vice has currently! And not just because he's Ethan from H3H3 from another dimension.
Terry Fator is better and less distasteful
helooks like young ethan klein
Remind me of rick n Morty
What is wrong with our society.
taji didn't have many friends growing up. he still doesn't have many friends.
God awful “journalism”. What a mockery.
Puppets are Creep City. Shudderrrrr
This video was interesting until you shared your views on Jeff Dunham
12:58 lol, the children are weirded out by him.
These people are lovely, but the host ruined it. In the second half, he becomes increasingly cringy.
9:09 the kid looks like a dummy himself….f###kin' weird .
Taji Ameen sounds like Jeff in American dad.
I love this series and reporter lol
Yep insecure hipster sarcasm by a dimwit “reporter”. These people are very talented just wish the reporter could step out of his own sadness.
This guy is so awkward. I couldn't even watch the whole video.
haha jeff dunham's character's that the host finds racially insensitive are freaking awesome
I'm astonished that David Liebe Hart wasn't there
that puppet balloon looks like a mockery of the convention.
Landon is really good.
Ok at least it's not the old man puppets hand inside the little boy…….
I typed this comment with my mouth closed.
The most awkward, creepy thing about this video….the neck beard.
Is that the same Chip from King of the hil???!?!?!?
you just know half of these puppets have holes cut out in their butt
Wow. Taji has no charisma whatsoever.
I love Florence the best
I need to go to the dealer room
Great!! I'm sooo excited to watch this series!!! Very cool/unique
I relate to taji so much lmaooooo
DID THIS OLD GUY JUST SAY “taji ameen, but he’s not that MEAN” JEUSUSUSSUS IVE NEVER WANTED TO DIE MORE
THIS GUY IS A CLOWWN
The thing is, when the audience is what made you successful, you should always take the time to talk to everyone. Paul Winchell always made time.
12:58 he show is bird to some kids ahahha
where is triumph
dat thumbnail : WE WUZ KINGZ AND SHEEEIT NIGGA!!!
I thought the first ventriloquist was a puppet of Tracy Morgan as a king.
LETS GO CHAMP!
In the first episode of American Conventions, Taji Ameen visits the world's largest gathering of ventriloquists.
