The Greatest Dog Name in the World - I loved the contrast in the two young voices and the way that they switch between the two. By switching between each brother, you get the feeling of the back-and-forth that they would have had at the time that they were trying to determine a name for their new dog. I also very much liked the way that the second brother described his reasoning for wanting to name him "Batman". For some reason, the anecdote of the dog's ears stood out, captured my attention, and made me think of my own dog and related to the way that my little brother and I would've fought over a name.
Of Dogs and Men - After listening to the act above, I was interested in hearing this act. The enthusiasm in the woman's voice made the story more entertaining and the laughter that ensued at specific points helped the audience to feel the way that she did. The laughter in the background only aided in her story, helping the audience relate as they heard others laughing to what they believed was humorous as well.
You Can't Choose Your Gift - The inflection in the man's voice and the way that he stutters stood out to me. He builds up suspense in an awkward way before showing you his odd talent. I also liked that he commented on it after he lets you listen to the sound he can make - it allows your to compare his reaction with your own and may change the way that you felt about that which he just did.
