Last year, we were thoroughly charmed by the voice-throwing techniques of Queens-born Nigel Gabriel Dunkley, aka Docta Gel. Docta Gel is the positively-minded ventriloquist you may have seen doing his act on the subway before—or perhaps you know him well because you are one of the ladies in the video below whom he hit on.

Did his efforts prove fruitful? We'll have to wait for Sunday to find out, when the second part of the video is released. For what it's worth, he's really made us re-think our longstanding apprehension toward dummies with dummies.
