Sarah Palin Voice

I thought it was time I told all of you my personal talent!

Name: Vinyl Anderton
Age: 19
Talent: Sarah Palin Impersonation
How did you learn/discover the talent: In 5th grade, during the election, I was an avid Obama supporter. I didn't really understand politics yet but I thought I did. I learned that I could do a pretty good Northern/Alaskan accent and would put my hair up like Palin's and wear glasses and do 'comedy routines' for my family.
What do you call it: Sarah Palin Voice
How would you explain it to someone who wants to learn it: You really just have to search out videos of her or of Northerns and try to really develop a voice that matches theirs. Accents can be hard, and I can't do many, this is one of the few I can pull off well.

I'm currently a freshman Mass Media: Film and Video major at Washburn University. In my free time I still use this voice to develop skits and routines as Palin but due to her no longer being a part of a major political campaign it's harder for people to get the jokes and find her funny so it's mostly just for fun at this point.

Burpology

Name: Izzy Benner
Age: 18
Talent: Burping
How did you learn/discover the talent: I've always had the ability, and it's something my father is pretty good at too. From a young age I was able to produce loud and horrifying burps and slowly I was able to learn to control it and produce these burps on command.
What do you call it: Burpology
How would you explain it to someone who wants to learn it: You just gotta be born with the power, man. If you really wanna try to learn then just try drinking a lot of carbonated beverages and almost pulling the burp out of your body with your lungs, but be careful because you don't wanna puke.

Izzy Benner is a senior in high school and a part of the IB Diploma program. She's been involved in From Couch to 5K, theatre, volleyball, and other school activities. She avidly burps in her free time and enjoys finding newer and more interesting ways to burp on command. Here's a quick video collection of her burping. Viewer discretion is advised for those who don't like burping.
