One of the finest comedy ventriloquists in the business, Jerry Goodspeed works as straight man to his cast of characters that include Bernie, a crotchety senior citizen, Lydia, a spry spinster, and a sharp-talking, multi-expressioned wiseacre named Sylvester (aka Sly). The laughs come fast as Bernie and Lydia trade barbs and eventually make peace by singing a duet, harmonizing on the last line.
