Matt Bailey is kicking off the VH ConVENTion with a couple of guest interviews. I asked Matt if he would consider doing a special interview for the HomeVENTioneers. Matt graciously agreed and here it is – Matt Bailey with Ken Groves!
Note: This IS NOT the Ventriloquism Weekly interview Matt did with Ken on his site.
This interview was created especially for our HomeVENTioneers.
Take a few moments to share any thoughts you have in the comments below. No thoughts? Then at least say hello to Ken and Matt. We’ll get your comments approved ASAP. (I’m going to be busy doing sound checks for the Wednesday night show – and need to eat at some point – but will try to get all comments posted shortly.)
Speaking of dinner – go grab something healthy and get back here – the Big Wednesday Night Show starts at 7:30 PM!
Add this post’s link to your favorite social sites and help spread the word! Remember, there are prizes for participation – so share away!
Great interview. What I like most about Ken is his honesty, tells it’s like it is, shoots straight for the heart of the subject. I always learn something new when I listen to his interviews. PUT THE PUPPET DOWN!

Hello Men and Matt!!!
Ken… Do yo have a method for cross referencing your joke diaries? And why is it when I try and type your name auto corrects it to Men?
Matt… This post introduced me to your site. You’ve got a new follower. Why don’t you post a link to the site for us VRD (virtual red dots) because these interviews would be a great addition to the list of things to do online between homevention updates.
Thank you both for the interview.
Hi Ken and Matt,
Thanks for sharing. Wish I was there. Maybe next year.

John, check out more if Matt’s interviews at http://ventriloquismweekly.com.
Thanks for the interview Matt and Ken! I really enjoyed Ken’s interview on ventriloquism weekly, so I’m looking forward to this 🙂
Use to correspond with Alan back in the 70’s. Doubt if he remembers me.Have a couple of his promo’s in my scrapbook. Good to see him alive and well.

Thanks, Ken. It really is encouraging to hear how long it takes you to write your material. Encouraging because if it takes you a long time it’s ok that it takes me a long time! I love your “sit-com”, character based approach and the way you take every day life and look for the comedy in it. My character is a 6 year old boy, and I get so much inspiration from my kids, the kids at school, and my nephews – kids are an endless supply of funny situations and funny things to say! Thanks again Matt and Ken for taking the time out of a busy week to share with us homeVENTioners.
Like Ken says regarding people asking him what puppet will make them funny, I work in comics, and you’ll hear people ask artists what pen do they use to draw so well. It’s the work, the practice, that does it.

Great interview. Thanks for all the info Ken. I love the “Put the Puppet Down”!
Thanks so much Matt & Ken! Learning lots! 🙂
