Happy Holidays From A Ventriloquist

By Steve Hurst | December 18, 2008

One of my passions is ventriloquism. Below is a video promotion from a few years ago.

This happened back in 1996 around the holidays. The local cable company was asking businesses to do a holiday greetings video and in turn, it would be a way to promote the businesses. The cable company was going to run these “promotional greetings” during December on the local access channel.

At the time I was doing kidshows in western Washington. I knew the guy in charge of these videos so when he asked if I wanted to do it, I said. “SURE!” I wanted them to put my phone number on the screen too, but he said they could only do the name. I figured that would still be okay because I had ads in party planners, parent guides and other publications throughout the Seattle area.

Well, as you’ll see by the video, everything went okay EXCEPT….they spelled my last name wrong. Which is okay, I still got a couple of jobs from the exposure.
