In the deaf community as well as sign language interpreter community, we tend to use "terps" for short (not wanting to confuse with Maryland Terps). Anyway, the video clips do have voice-over after I checked with my hearing colleagues to make sure before I provide the two links to Keith Wann's two funny video clips about a hearing interpreter's worst nightmare- interpreting rap music and another story about "deaf technology" (it is about deaf people looking down and using their pagers while hearing ASL students wanting to communicate with them):

Those are really funny. I checked out most of the videos he's put up... they're all funny. Good find Brent.

In fact, I never heard of Keith Wann until today when my co-worker sent me an email announcement about him coming down to Austin on March 29.

It is really nice to have those voice-overs for those who do not know sign language. There is one funny video clip including him about "Sex Ed," because some instructors/professors/teachers do not realize that a certified sign language interpreter is necessary instead of having a friend who knows very little or a little bit of sign language.
