“Working the crowd…” – A new phrase that I learnt last week. It is most commonly utilized when a comic directly approaches the audience by asking questions and participating in discussion. 

My YouTube feed consists mostly of Photography & Filmmaking tips and tricks, Horror movie reviews & synopses, Video game reviews etc.

So I was surprised when one of the featured YT shorts was that of a Purple Puppet who goes by the name of “Randy Feltface”. 

Randy is a comedian, and even though he’s a puppet, the puppetry is just so good that you almost believe Randy is real. And making people laugh through crowd work is a difficult task, but Randy is exceptional at it.

Yes, he is a puppet, its a bit raunchy sometimes, lots of cursing and all (but not distasteful like some comedians and YT influ… ?), but he knows how to get the audience engaged and interacting and on the fly that too.

And it got me thinking, wouldn’t it be great to have a skill like his. As a content developer most of us break our brains trying to come with engaging interactive, content that is not a cheap gimmick (like most things now on social media) and having a skill like his would be awesome to say the least. 

So if you have nothing to watch over the long weekend, give Randy a try. 

You will be hooked…hes’s a riot
