23
00:01:10.439 --> 00:01:12.760
<v Speaker 3>to verify if this is true or not. But you

24
00:01:12.840 --> 00:01:15.239
<v Speaker 3>came up with the voice of dark wing duck here

25
00:01:15.319 --> 00:01:16.400
<v Speaker 3>in Missouri? Is that true?

26
00:01:17.159 --> 00:01:20.439
<v Speaker 2>It is true? It is true, and there are actual

27
00:01:20.840 --> 00:01:23.359
<v Speaker 2>many native ducks here for inspiration.

28
00:01:23.560 --> 00:01:25.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, was that actually part of your inspiration?

29
00:01:27.079 --> 00:01:29.719
<v Speaker 2>But don't But it sounds good, doesn't it, So we're

30

34
00:01:38.400 --> 00:01:41.040
<v Speaker 3>really like this conversation, but first we have a couple

35
00:01:41.120 --> 00:01:45.200
<v Speaker 3>announcements to make. If you didn't see last week our

36
00:01:45.239 --> 00:01:47.719
<v Speaker 3>conversation with Townsend Coleman, I mean I had a great time.

37
00:01:47.719 --> 00:01:48.920
<v Speaker 3>How about yourself, Jim, Oh.

38
00:01:48.840 --> 00:01:51.239
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, he's old, but in mine from a long time.

39
00:01:51.319 --> 00:01:51.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

40
00:01:51.680 --> 00:01:53.239
<v Speaker 2>He's great, great.

41
00:01:53.000 --> 00:01:55.200
<v Speaker 3>Guy and you may know him as the voice of.

42
00:01:56.040 --> 00:02:02.200
<v Speaker 2>Uh, well, let's see of the Ninja turtles. How about that?

43
00:02:02.480 --> 00:02:06.719
<v Speaker 2>And he is also Waldo from Where's Waldo? You would

44
00:02:06.760 --> 00:02:09.759
<v Speaker 2>have never expected that one? And uh you know what,

45
00:02:09.800 --> 00:02:12.319
<v Speaker 2>can I tell you? He gets around and if you

46
00:02:12.639 --> 00:02:16.360
<v Speaker 2>sound suspiciously like the tick as well. It's because he

47
00:02:16.520 --> 00:02:21.080
<v Speaker 2>is so uh, you know, turtles ticks. He's he's got

48
00:02:21.199 --> 00:02:23.199
<v Speaker 2>going making his way through the teas.

49
00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:25.280
<v Speaker 3>And I found it fascinating that he said that. At

50
00:02:25.280 --> 00:02:27.960
<v Speaker 3>conventions people are always so shocked to find out that

51
00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:30.960
<v Speaker 3>he's the tick. And I'm like, what, Yeah, what an

00:02:31.120 --> 00:02:35.080
<v Speaker 3>iconic role, iconic voice. I mean, yeah, he's such a

147
00:07:15.040 --> 00:07:17.879

<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I was very naughty as a child. I did

153
00:07:24.600 --> 00:07:27.399
<v Speaker 1>lots of prank phone calls and yeah yeah, yeah, I

154
00:07:27.480 --> 00:07:29.519
<v Speaker 1>made a menace of myself before I even knew that

155
00:07:29.639 --> 00:07:33.199
<v Speaker 1>voice acting was a thing. So yeah, but Donald Duck

156
00:07:33.240 --> 00:07:36.519
<v Speaker 1>has always had a special place in my life in

157
00:07:36.560 --> 00:07:40.079
<v Speaker 1>my heart. I often tell the story about Mama Duck,

158
00:07:40.279 --> 00:07:44.279
<v Speaker 1>who you met many years ago, and she taught me

159
00:07:44.319 --> 00:07:46.319
<v Speaker 1>when I was three years old how to do the voice,

160
00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:48.959
<v Speaker 1>and so that was cool. That was our love language.

161
00:07:49.079 --> 00:07:50.639
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, yeah, No matter.

162
00:07:50.439 --> 00:07:52.279
<v Speaker 1>What was going on in the world, we would quack

163
00:07:52.279 --> 00:07:54.680
<v Speaker 1>at each other and it was just something very special.

164
00:07:55.040 --> 00:07:57.120
<v Speaker 1>And so friends family would always.

165
00:07:56.839 --> 00:07:57.720
<v Speaker 2>Say, hey, do the voice.

166
00:07:57.720 --> 00:07:59.839
<v Speaker 1>Do the voice, and so I would do it, and

167
00:08:00.480 --> 00:08:04.160
<v Speaker 1>I just I loved seeing people light up and smile

168
00:08:04.439 --> 00:08:07.199
<v Speaker 1>because there was a there's a connection when you do

169
00:08:07.279 --> 00:08:10.199
<v Speaker 1>a character. It's not just hey, I'm doing something silly.

170
00:08:10.240 --> 00:08:12.920
<v Speaker 1>There's a connection inside of all of us that I

171
00:08:12.920 --> 00:08:16.160
<v Speaker 1>always found to be really special. And that's something you've

172
00:08:16.319 --> 00:08:21.800
<v Speaker 1>connected with for many generations, including my own. So yeah,

173
00:08:22.079 --> 00:08:25.079
<v Speaker 1>very happy to have played the duck for some time.

174
00:08:25.639 --> 00:08:29.480
<v Speaker 2>I want to. Yeah. And you know, and it's great

175
00:08:29.560 --> 00:08:33.159
<v Speaker 2>because you can see people I've said it before, you know,

176
00:08:33.279 --> 00:08:35.639
<v Speaker 2>somebody standing there, they're forty years old, thirty years old,

177
00:08:35.679 --> 00:08:38.320
<v Speaker 2>and you know, you do Pooh, you do Donald, and

178
00:08:38.399 --> 00:08:41.480
<v Speaker 2>all of a sudden they're five. Yeah, and it's really cool.

179
00:08:41.600 --> 00:08:43.120
<v Speaker 2>It's it's really really nice.

180
00:08:43.200 --> 00:08:45.159
<v Speaker 1>It's something and their kids get it too.

181
00:08:45.480 --> 00:08:46.200
<v Speaker 5>All they do.

182
00:08:46.399 --> 00:08:49.200
<v Speaker 1>Although you have to be careful because sometimes I'll do

183
00:08:49.240 --> 00:08:52.679
<v Speaker 1>the Donald voice to somebody too young and they don't understand,

184
00:08:52.919 --> 00:08:55.240
<v Speaker 1>and so I'll say and.

185
00:08:55.159 --> 00:08:55.679
<v Speaker 2>They go.

186
00:08:57.360 --> 00:09:00.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I always say now close your eyes, yeah, and

187
00:09:00.200 --> 00:09:03.240
<v Speaker 1>they can hear it first and then they understand.

188
00:09:03.080 --> 00:09:06.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but I've got that with Taz good you got

189
00:09:06.519 --> 00:09:08.159
<v Speaker 2>you can't you can't do it with.

190
00:09:08.120 --> 00:09:14.000
<v Speaker 1>The you know, well, Taz is a favorite. And you

191
00:09:14.039 --> 00:09:17.120
<v Speaker 1>and I actually worked on a game called Multiverses where

192
00:09:17.120 --> 00:09:21.399
<v Speaker 1>you were Taz and I played Gizmo Stripe, the Brain,

193
00:09:21.480 --> 00:09:23.039
<v Speaker 1>Gremlin from Gremlins.

194
00:09:22.600 --> 00:09:25.080
<v Speaker 2>Too, and Uncle Shagworth. They had a bunch of characters

195
00:09:25.120 --> 00:09:26.279
<v Speaker 2>shag Worthy.

196
00:09:26.080 --> 00:09:29.279
<v Speaker 1>That's right, Uncle Shagworthy, Actual Service.

197
00:09:30.879 --> 00:09:35.519
<v Speaker 2>Shag Yes, you gotta watch out. You got to got

198
00:09:35.639 --> 00:09:36.840
<v Speaker 2>to pick your audience on that one.

199
00:09:36.919 --> 00:09:37.639
<v Speaker 5>That's very true.

200
00:09:37.720 --> 00:09:40.840
<v Speaker 1>A very obscure spooy dooo character who was from like

201
00:09:41.000 --> 00:09:45.039
<v Speaker 1>I think one episode in the seventies, and Casey Kasem

202
00:09:45.120 --> 00:09:47.799
<v Speaker 1>did the voice and he sounded just like Shaggy, so

203
00:09:48.039 --> 00:09:51.120
<v Speaker 1>we had to do a new version, and coming up

204
00:09:51.159 --> 00:09:53.440
<v Speaker 1>with that voice was just so much fun. In the script,

205
00:09:53.759 --> 00:09:56.720
<v Speaker 1>they kept using the word like just like Shaggy would

206
00:09:57.080 --> 00:10:01.600
<v Speaker 1>like this, like that, like Scoob. So I'm like, like

207
00:10:01.720 --> 00:10:05.600
<v Speaker 1>Uncle shag Worthy, actual Service, like you Gremlin's better not

208
00:10:05.639 --> 00:10:07.840
<v Speaker 1>be off to my jewels, And it was just it

209
00:10:07.919 --> 00:10:09.080
<v Speaker 1>just came out of jewels.

210
00:10:09.639 --> 00:10:10.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

211
00:10:10.039 --> 00:10:12.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and even we even did I think for the

212
00:10:13.039 --> 00:10:17.039
<v Speaker 1>Brain gremlin. He tries to communicate with Taz in one line,

213
00:10:17.080 --> 00:10:20.039
<v Speaker 1>and so he does a maybe you understand this old

214
00:10:20.120 --> 00:10:21.679
<v Speaker 1>chap and blah blah blah blah blah blah.

215
00:10:22.919 --> 00:10:26.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, yeah, as long as you ended up. Yeah,

216
00:10:27.000 --> 00:10:30.000
<v Speaker 2>you gotta do that, and you gotta get that bottom

217
00:10:30.039 --> 00:10:33.000
<v Speaker 2>tongue going because that's where the resonance comes from.

218
00:10:33.120 --> 00:10:35.240
<v Speaker 5>My God, like the tas mating and punctuation.

219
00:10:35.559 --> 00:10:41.519
<v Speaker 2>Ah. Taz does not do books on tape, so.

220
00:10:42.039 --> 00:10:44.679
<v Speaker 1>Well he should, he really should, and they should be

221
00:10:44.759 --> 00:10:45.399
<v Speaker 1>very durable.

222
00:10:45.559 --> 00:10:48.919
<v Speaker 2>It was the best of times. It was the worst

223
00:10:48.960 --> 00:10:53.799
<v Speaker 2>of times. You know, Taz, what was that?

224
00:10:53.879 --> 00:10:56.519
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna break me, man, I'm just like, wow, okay,

225
00:10:56.559 --> 00:10:57.360
<v Speaker 1>it's incredible.

226
00:10:57.600 --> 00:10:59.840
<v Speaker 3>Imagine Taz is like one of those people announcing the

227
00:11:00.000 --> 00:11:01.840
<v Speaker 3>train stops. You know, the voices that you hear on

228
00:11:01.879 --> 00:11:04.799
<v Speaker 3>the train. Oh right, yeah, well stop.

229
00:11:05.360 --> 00:11:09.919
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Mel Blank did do that as one of his characters. Yeah,

230
00:11:10.000 --> 00:11:12.399
<v Speaker 2>on the train. Whenever they were on a train. The

231
00:11:12.480 --> 00:11:19.200
<v Speaker 2>next step and Manga and I don't recall, and he was,

232
00:11:20.039 --> 00:11:22.840
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, just some train guy whatever they were

233
00:11:22.879 --> 00:11:26.960
<v Speaker 2>called the conductor conductor. Yeah, there you go. Yeah, yeah,

234
00:11:27.000 --> 00:11:28.399
<v Speaker 2>he was everybody they used.

235
00:11:28.399 --> 00:11:31.200
<v Speaker 3>They used Seth Rogan up in Vancouver on the skytrain

236
00:11:31.240 --> 00:11:33.440
<v Speaker 3>for a little bit because he's a he's a Vancouver right.

237
00:11:33.600 --> 00:11:35.799
<v Speaker 5>Oh really yeah, and so they used his voice.

238
00:11:44.200 --> 00:11:48.320
<v Speaker 2>I can't even imagine. That's funny. Yeah, well he might

239
00:11:48.360 --> 00:11:52.960
<v Speaker 2>be doing something with the dark wing, right we maybe

240
00:11:53.200 --> 00:11:57.080
<v Speaker 2>who knows? Who knows, said Jim knowingly. Okay, now we're

241
00:11:57.080 --> 00:11:59.720
<v Speaker 2>going to change the subject. And then we said that

242
00:11:59.799 --> 00:12:02.759
<v Speaker 2>for project you and I worked on was you were

243
00:12:02.799 --> 00:12:05.440
<v Speaker 2>Donald and I was I was Peaked, And that was

244
00:12:05.519 --> 00:12:09.240
<v Speaker 2>Chippendale's Nutty Tails. Nutty Tails. Yeah, that was one of them.

245
00:12:09.440 --> 00:12:12.559
<v Speaker 1>Although that actually that came after Roads to Racers. It

246
00:12:12.600 --> 00:12:15.879
<v Speaker 1>was one of those little inter interstitials they did short episodes.

247
00:12:16.519 --> 00:12:21.000
<v Speaker 1>But I will never forget. After I was cast in

248
00:12:21.080 --> 00:12:24.120
<v Speaker 1>this role, my life completely changed. It was one of

249
00:12:24.120 --> 00:12:26.639
<v Speaker 1>the greatest things that had ever happened to me. And

250
00:12:26.679 --> 00:12:29.240
<v Speaker 1>it came at a time again with that connection with

251
00:12:29.279 --> 00:12:33.120
<v Speaker 1>my mom where she had just gone through about a

252
00:12:33.159 --> 00:12:36.840
<v Speaker 1>breast cancer. She was in remission and both our lives

253
00:12:36.840 --> 00:12:40.879
<v Speaker 1>had been turned upside down, and so that news changed everything.

254
00:12:40.960 --> 00:12:43.120
<v Speaker 1>And I got to bring her out to Los Angeles

255
00:12:43.240 --> 00:12:47.399
<v Speaker 1>two Disney studios to see all the handprints and you know,

256
00:12:47.480 --> 00:12:51.159
<v Speaker 1>to meet some people and meeting you, and that sparkle

257
00:12:51.240 --> 00:12:54.840
<v Speaker 1>in her eye that had dissipated after so many years

258
00:12:55.159 --> 00:12:57.759
<v Speaker 1>came back. Look at that and that was something so

259
00:12:57.919 --> 00:12:58.600
<v Speaker 1>special to me.

260
00:12:58.679 --> 00:12:59.960
<v Speaker 2>But for Roads to Racers.

261
00:13:00.159 --> 00:13:02.480
<v Speaker 1>The day you and she met and you and I met,

262
00:13:03.519 --> 00:13:06.480
<v Speaker 1>we were at a party at Debbie dry Berry's Chuol

263
00:13:06.519 --> 00:13:08.840
<v Speaker 1>friend and she was throwing me a birthday party. I

264
00:13:08.919 --> 00:13:11.639
<v Speaker 1>was very happy, and I went up to her and

265
00:13:11.679 --> 00:13:13.080
<v Speaker 1>I said, hey, Debbie.

303
00:14:46.279 --> 00:14:48.639
<v Speaker 3>Wait, something you just said made me think was that

304
00:14:49.080 --> 00:14:51.799
<v Speaker 3>was that a trope for Donald Duck Originally that you

305
00:14:51.840 --> 00:14:54.799
<v Speaker 3>couldn't he was unintelligible.

306
00:14:55.600 --> 00:14:56.639
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, but.

307
00:14:58.559 --> 00:15:02.159
<v Speaker 3>Like Kenny south Park trope that they were going for.

308
00:15:02.200 --> 00:15:03.720
<v Speaker 2>It was that it was quite that.

309
00:15:04.159 --> 00:15:06.759
<v Speaker 1>I don't think it initially started that way. I know

310
00:15:06.919 --> 00:15:10.799
<v Speaker 1>from my research and connection with the character that Walt

311
00:15:11.399 --> 00:15:14.320
<v Speaker 1>wanted someone who could do the things that Mickey couldn't

312
00:15:14.559 --> 00:15:17.679
<v Speaker 1>in certain ways. And when Clarence Ducky Nash came up

313
00:15:17.679 --> 00:15:20.799
<v Speaker 1>with that voice, uh, it took on a life of

314
00:15:20.840 --> 00:15:24.399
<v Speaker 1>its own. And so I think as time progressed from

315
00:15:24.519 --> 00:15:27.440
<v Speaker 1>the wise Little Hen in nineteen thirty four, it became

316
00:15:27.519 --> 00:15:29.480
<v Speaker 1>a thing like we don't understand what he's saying, but.

317
00:15:29.440 --> 00:15:29.960
<v Speaker 2>We love it.

318
00:15:30.159 --> 00:15:30.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

319
00:15:30.639 --> 00:15:33.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, So I think that's really what stuff I've gotten

320
00:15:33.159 --> 00:15:37.080
<v Speaker 2>that into, know, at least one show, because you know,

321
00:15:38.120 --> 00:15:42.399
<v Speaker 2>this is back a long time ago. But and Pete

322
00:15:42.440 --> 00:15:45.000
<v Speaker 2>and Donald were doing something and then and he goes

323
00:15:47.120 --> 00:15:51.919
<v Speaker 2>and the line, yeah, but the line was, hey, we

324
00:15:52.000 --> 00:15:54.080
<v Speaker 2>got to get out of here. And so I said

325
00:15:54.120 --> 00:15:55.039
<v Speaker 2>to him, Hey.

326
00:15:55.080 --> 00:15:57.200
<v Speaker 6>I have no idea what d hill you just said,

327
00:15:57.519 --> 00:15:58.840
<v Speaker 6>but we've got to get out of here.

328
00:16:01.320 --> 00:16:05.399
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, come on, you know it works. Yeah, that's exactly

329
00:16:05.399 --> 00:16:09.200
<v Speaker 2>how it works. So, yeah, that's not bad.

330
00:16:09.279 --> 00:16:12.840
<v Speaker 1>Buckle speech you got there, sir. It's like it's like

331
00:16:12.840 --> 00:16:14.039
<v Speaker 1>you're a voice actor or something.

332
00:16:14.039 --> 00:16:17.120
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, there you go.

333
00:16:17.240 --> 00:16:19.840
<v Speaker 1>Well that's the technical term buckle speech, which is a

334
00:16:19.960 --> 00:16:23.000
<v Speaker 1>there's a pocket of air in your cheek that makes

335
00:16:23.039 --> 00:16:25.919
<v Speaker 1>the sound. Yeah, and then you use the front parts

336
00:16:25.960 --> 00:16:29.559
<v Speaker 1>to enunciate and the back parts for consonants. So even

337
00:16:29.600 --> 00:16:32.519
<v Speaker 1>saying the word donald duck requires all three with that

338
00:16:32.639 --> 00:16:33.360
<v Speaker 1>K at the end.

339
00:16:35.240 --> 00:16:35.759
<v Speaker 2>There you go.

340
00:16:36.080 --> 00:16:38.120
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I just learned something.

341
00:16:38.120 --> 00:16:40.200
<v Speaker 2>What what's it called buckle speech?

342
00:16:40.399 --> 00:16:44.519
<v Speaker 3>Buckle speech? Yeah, wow, that's really interesting. That's fascinating.

343
00:16:45.279 --> 00:16:46.440
<v Speaker 2>That's interesting whole thing.

344
00:16:46.720 --> 00:16:46.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

345
00:16:47.279 --> 00:16:48.919
<v Speaker 1>I guess they can't call it donald duck talk. There

346
00:16:48.960 --> 00:16:52.240
<v Speaker 1>has to be a technical term. Yeah, donald tickus uh

347
00:16:52.399 --> 00:16:53.559
<v Speaker 1>duham duckamus.

348
00:16:53.720 --> 00:16:57.320
<v Speaker 3>What other voice? What other voice would use that speech?

349
00:16:58.320 --> 00:17:01.559
<v Speaker 1>So obviously there's been other quack quackers out there, like

350
00:17:01.679 --> 00:17:06.279
<v Speaker 1>Yacky Doodle, yeah, little quacker, the one, the super cute

351
00:17:06.279 --> 00:17:08.599
<v Speaker 1>little ducky.

352
00:17:08.920 --> 00:17:14.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that was what was his name, Little Quackery. He

353
00:17:14.279 --> 00:17:16.960
<v Speaker 2>was a cute one. Yeah. I liked him. I did too.

354
00:17:17.920 --> 00:17:20.319
<v Speaker 1>I got to play his younger cousin in an episode

355
00:17:20.359 --> 00:17:21.240
<v Speaker 1>of Tom and Jared, and.

356
00:17:21.160 --> 00:17:24.480
<v Speaker 2>He was an egg because he could have only been

357
00:17:24.519 --> 00:17:25.279
<v Speaker 2>so much younger.

358
00:17:25.319 --> 00:17:27.880
<v Speaker 1>Well, he didn't have the affectation, he wasn't using the

359
00:17:27.880 --> 00:17:29.000
<v Speaker 1>buckle speech, and I'm.

360
00:17:28.799 --> 00:17:32.079
<v Speaker 2>Like, waste an opportunity here, But I was just happy

361
00:17:32.119 --> 00:17:35.400
<v Speaker 2>to be in the room. Yeah, yeah, me too, I'm

362
00:17:35.440 --> 00:17:36.759
<v Speaker 2>always happy to be in that room.

363
00:17:36.960 --> 00:17:37.119
<v Speaker 3>Now.

364
00:17:37.160 --> 00:17:40.160
<v Speaker 1>I always thought I never intended to come to LA

365
00:17:40.400 --> 00:17:42.880
<v Speaker 1>and play this character. I never even thought it would

366
00:17:42.880 --> 00:17:45.559
<v Speaker 1>be in the cards because those roles, as you know,

367
00:17:45.599 --> 00:17:47.160
<v Speaker 1>are like Supreme Court nominations.

368
00:17:47.200 --> 00:17:48.039
<v Speaker 2>You're in for life.

369
00:17:48.799 --> 00:17:51.319
<v Speaker 1>And so I was thinking of other ways that I

370
00:17:51.319 --> 00:17:53.759
<v Speaker 1>could use the voice, and I'm like, I could bark

371
00:17:53.880 --> 00:18:00.839
<v Speaker 1>like a pug. Okay, cool, maybe I'll have you never

372
00:18:00.920 --> 00:18:05.000
<v Speaker 1>know someday, you know, whatever else might pop up.

373
00:18:05.599 --> 00:18:10.799
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well, I invented my little and it's either a

374
00:18:10.839 --> 00:18:17.680
<v Speaker 2>dolphin or a squirrel. Yeah, you know so. And I

375
00:18:17.680 --> 00:18:19.440
<v Speaker 2>don't even know what that is. It's just something I

376
00:18:19.519 --> 00:18:22.519
<v Speaker 2>used to annoy my parents with. That's the whole point.

377
00:18:22.720 --> 00:18:24.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, if you're not annoying your parents, what are you

378
00:18:24.920 --> 00:18:26.279
<v Speaker 1>doing with this talent?

379
00:18:26.440 --> 00:18:29.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? What are you doing with this talent? Yeah?

380
00:18:29.039 --> 00:18:31.200
<v Speaker 1>My dad always wanted me to be a doctor or

381
00:18:31.240 --> 00:18:33.359
<v Speaker 1>a lawyer. He was a doctor. He was a dentist

382
00:18:33.799 --> 00:18:36.559
<v Speaker 1>and so very very left brain and he didn't understand

383
00:18:36.799 --> 00:18:39.640
<v Speaker 1>all of this, but he supported me. Anytime I had

384
00:18:39.640 --> 00:18:41.759
<v Speaker 1>to play in school, he would always show up. Oh yeah,

385
00:18:41.799 --> 00:18:43.599
<v Speaker 1>he'd say, you know, well, you got to think about

386
00:18:43.640 --> 00:18:45.400
<v Speaker 1>what you're going to be doing later in life. You

387
00:18:45.480 --> 00:18:46.759
<v Speaker 1>got to think seriously about it.

388
00:18:46.799 --> 00:18:51.839
<v Speaker 2>And I'm like, I'm going to be an actor. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

389
00:18:51.880 --> 00:18:54.839
<v Speaker 2>I had the same thing, and my dad would say, yeah,

390
00:18:54.880 --> 00:18:58.240
<v Speaker 2>but it's fine, But what are you going to do

391
00:18:58.279 --> 00:19:00.480
<v Speaker 2>for a living? What are you gonna do for the living? No,

392
00:19:00.519 --> 00:19:03.559
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna do that, okay, but how are you going

393
00:19:03.640 --> 00:19:07.079
<v Speaker 2>to pay the bills with that? Ye? Okay, Well put

394
00:19:07.119 --> 00:19:09.960
<v Speaker 2>it this way. Why starve doing that? Don't you want

395
00:19:10.000 --> 00:19:12.000
<v Speaker 2>to have something to fall back and I and I

396
00:19:12.039 --> 00:19:14.799
<v Speaker 2>get that, I get that thinking, you know, being a

397
00:19:14.880 --> 00:19:18.319
<v Speaker 2>dad now in a long time. But if you don't

398
00:19:18.319 --> 00:19:22.039
<v Speaker 2>have anything to fall back on, then maybe you just

399
00:19:22.079 --> 00:19:24.839
<v Speaker 2>have to put your eggs all in that one basket

400
00:19:24.880 --> 00:19:27.480
<v Speaker 2>and guard the hell out of that basket and make

401
00:19:27.519 --> 00:19:30.000
<v Speaker 2>that one. You know, if you're going to go for it,

402
00:19:30.079 --> 00:19:32.519
<v Speaker 2>then do it and do it so well that somebody

403
00:19:32.559 --> 00:19:34.519
<v Speaker 2>will pay you. And look what you've done. Yeah, that's

404
00:19:34.559 --> 00:19:37.079
<v Speaker 2>so far, so good, so far, so good. Yeah.

405
00:19:37.279 --> 00:19:39.960
<v Speaker 1>It was your dad around to see your success.

406
00:19:40.079 --> 00:19:42.960
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, yeah, he was. He was, God bless him.

407
00:19:43.759 --> 00:19:47.519
<v Speaker 2>And it was interesting because Chuck McCann, the great, late

410
00:19:54.759 --> 00:19:59.759

<v Speaker 2>And then you know, they're all no longer with us.

413
00:20:05.119 --> 00:20:10.720
<v Speaker 2>But it was so nice and and my dad said, wait,

414
00:20:11.039 --> 00:20:13.599
<v Speaker 2>who's this guy? Who's this character again? And I said,

452
00:22:05.119 --> 00:22:09.200
<v Speaker 2>He's like everybody's security blanket. Yes, you can wrap up

453
00:22:09.200 --> 00:22:14.920
<v Speaker 2>and you don't want to wrap up and pooh. Anyway,

00:22:22.240 --> 00:22:27.000
<v Speaker 2>Say something interesting? Interesting? That was it.

457
00:22:27.599 --> 00:22:30.039
<v Speaker 4>I was going to break into some Winny the pooh.

458
00:22:30.359 --> 00:22:31.559
<v Speaker 2>It's not as good as that guy.

459
00:22:31.640 --> 00:22:31.839
<v Speaker 4>Though.

460
00:22:32.920 --> 00:22:35.079
<v Speaker 1>When I do it, people say, oh, you're doing penny

461
00:22:35.119 --> 00:22:36.799
<v Speaker 1>Wise from from here right?

462
00:22:37.400 --> 00:22:39.799
<v Speaker 4>Oh, Georgie, we will float?

463
00:22:40.640 --> 00:22:44.240
<v Speaker 2>Oh god, the hairstep away. That sounded a little like

464
00:22:44.359 --> 00:22:51.279
<v Speaker 2>aunt Bee. Oh Andy, Oh say Andy, and see there's

465
00:22:51.319 --> 00:22:59.440
<v Speaker 2>aunt Bee. Ain't me aunt be? Yes? Oh god, I'll

466
00:22:59.480 --> 00:23:00.920
<v Speaker 2>have to add that into the repertoire.

467
00:23:01.119 --> 00:23:06.720
<v Speaker 3>You started your acting career on camera, correct, Yes, yes,

468
00:23:07.359 --> 00:23:10.279
<v Speaker 3>So that was your first passion was on camera. I'm

469
00:23:10.319 --> 00:23:12.160
<v Speaker 3>going to be I'm going to be that lead man,

470
00:23:12.279 --> 00:23:13.119
<v Speaker 3>I'm going to be the star.

471
00:23:13.640 --> 00:23:17.160
<v Speaker 1>It was in the direction that I wanted to be.

472
00:23:17.319 --> 00:23:18.359
<v Speaker 1>I started in theater.

473
00:23:18.720 --> 00:23:18.920
<v Speaker 3>You know.

474
00:23:19.079 --> 00:23:20.920
<v Speaker 2>High school was my first real.

475
00:23:20.720 --> 00:23:24.359
<v Speaker 1>Introduction and actually no, I would say getting in front

476
00:23:24.400 --> 00:23:26.200
<v Speaker 1>of my family and making a fool of myself when

477
00:23:26.200 --> 00:23:28.519
<v Speaker 1>I was a kid, that was my first introduction to Ooh,

478
00:23:28.599 --> 00:23:32.000
<v Speaker 1>I like the attention I'm getting. And so, you know,

479
00:23:32.079 --> 00:23:36.480
<v Speaker 1>in high school, obviously I did theater. I studied Shakespeare,

480
00:23:37.240 --> 00:23:41.160
<v Speaker 1>I won some awards. I performed at the Folger in Washington.

481
00:23:40.880 --> 00:23:41.119
<v Speaker 3>D C.

482
00:23:41.759 --> 00:23:43.079
<v Speaker 2>In Elizabethan clothing.

483
00:23:43.119 --> 00:23:45.720
<v Speaker 1>I think I did it was Shylock's monologue from the

484
00:23:45.720 --> 00:23:50.480
<v Speaker 1>Merchant of Venice. Oh wow, Prick used to lead, Yeah yeah,

485
00:23:50.559 --> 00:23:52.480
<v Speaker 1>And that was and I won an award for that,

486
00:23:52.640 --> 00:23:54.920
<v Speaker 1>and so it was the first time I went, well,

487
00:23:54.960 --> 00:23:58.279
<v Speaker 1>maybe this is something I should lean into. And so

488
00:23:58.640 --> 00:24:02.440
<v Speaker 1>acting and the performer arts really became a solace for

489
00:24:02.559 --> 00:24:05.799
<v Speaker 1>me in a time that was very tumultuous. When I

490
00:24:05.799 --> 00:24:09.640
<v Speaker 1>grew up, my family kind of split and I ended

491
00:24:09.720 --> 00:24:12.000
<v Speaker 1>up homeless for a very brief time, and when I

492
00:24:12.039 --> 00:24:14.839
<v Speaker 1>would go to school, that was my escape and I

493
00:24:14.880 --> 00:24:17.960
<v Speaker 1>loved it for that. But I also really loved seeing

494
00:24:18.039 --> 00:24:21.559
<v Speaker 1>how people were affected by the material. And I would

495
00:24:21.640 --> 00:24:23.599
<v Speaker 1>know going to a movie or going to watch a

496
00:24:23.640 --> 00:24:26.000
<v Speaker 1>TV show like that was an escape for me, and

497
00:24:26.000 --> 00:24:28.599
<v Speaker 1>I would feel things that I may never feel in

498
00:24:28.640 --> 00:24:30.839
<v Speaker 1>real life, or see things that I may never have

499
00:24:30.960 --> 00:24:33.599
<v Speaker 1>the opportunity to see. And to me, that was a

500
00:24:33.640 --> 00:24:38.119
<v Speaker 1>spark of magic. And so I was drawn to the

501
00:24:38.119 --> 00:24:40.680
<v Speaker 1>magic and I said, this is what I want to do,

502
00:24:40.720 --> 00:24:43.559
<v Speaker 1>This is how I want to affect the world positively.

503
00:24:43.839 --> 00:24:47.400
<v Speaker 1>If I can take whatever you know, nonsense and turbulence

504
00:24:47.440 --> 00:24:49.480
<v Speaker 1>was in my life and turn it into something positive,

505
00:24:49.519 --> 00:24:50.279
<v Speaker 1>then cool.

506
00:24:50.720 --> 00:24:51.240
<v Speaker 3>So theater.

507
00:24:51.640 --> 00:24:54.240
<v Speaker 1>I studied it in college, musical theater. Then I dropped

508
00:24:54.240 --> 00:24:59.759
<v Speaker 1>out of college and started into TV and film, and

509
00:25:00.599 --> 00:25:02.319
<v Speaker 1>I was an extra on a bunch of things, a

510
00:25:02.359 --> 00:25:05.079
<v Speaker 1>stand in. I got my SAG card working on a

511
00:25:05.119 --> 00:25:09.079
<v Speaker 1>movie called Latter forty nine as Walking Phoenix's stand in.

512
00:25:09.440 --> 00:25:12.680
<v Speaker 1>It was a firefighter movie, and that was just that

513
00:25:12.759 --> 00:25:16.240
<v Speaker 1>was incredible. I was working full days at Target in

514
00:25:16.319 --> 00:25:18.000
<v Speaker 1>the day and then at night I would head out

515
00:25:18.079 --> 00:25:21.079
<v Speaker 1>to Baltimore and I'd film overnight then latherinse, repeat for

516
00:25:21.119 --> 00:25:24.680
<v Speaker 1>a month. And that got me into the guild.

517
00:25:25.240 --> 00:25:27.319
<v Speaker 3>Oh that's cool, and you're on the wire too, correct.

518
00:25:27.400 --> 00:25:28.559
<v Speaker 2>I was on the wire. Yeah.

519
00:25:28.599 --> 00:25:31.559
<v Speaker 1>I worked on that a bunch of times and nothing

520
00:25:31.559 --> 00:25:34.839
<v Speaker 1>of significance, but yeah, just being on set and taking

521
00:25:34.880 --> 00:25:37.319
<v Speaker 1>it all in for sure, because at that point in

522
00:25:37.359 --> 00:25:40.759
<v Speaker 1>my career, I'm sure you remember this, there's a point

523
00:25:40.799 --> 00:25:44.680
<v Speaker 1>where you're like, it's that magical beyond that you don't

524
00:25:44.720 --> 00:25:46.920
<v Speaker 1>know about, but you get to touch it, and once

525
00:25:46.960 --> 00:25:49.160
<v Speaker 1>you do, you get to peel back the curtain and

526
00:25:49.200 --> 00:25:50.359
<v Speaker 1>see what's on the other side.

527
00:25:50.480 --> 00:25:52.079
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that was the wire for me.

528
00:25:52.880 --> 00:25:56.759
<v Speaker 1>And so, yeah, I worked on the wire Chris Rock's

529
00:25:56.799 --> 00:25:59.359
<v Speaker 1>movie Head of State, or I met Bernie Mack.

530
00:25:59.240 --> 00:26:02.759
<v Speaker 3>Ahead of tell us a story about Bernie mac Man.

531
00:26:04.039 --> 00:26:06.599
<v Speaker 3>Love Bernie Mack so much, you.

532
00:26:06.640 --> 00:26:09.759
<v Speaker 2>Know America, you know, I used to love him.

533
00:26:10.480 --> 00:26:13.480
<v Speaker 5>Oh my god, his show was so funny show. He

534
00:26:13.559 --> 00:26:14.519
<v Speaker 5>was just such a funny guy.

535
00:26:14.599 --> 00:26:18.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, oh my god. Gone, he was amazing, no kidding, Yeah,

536
00:26:18.160 --> 00:26:20.519
<v Speaker 2>I mean I almost cried when the guy left us.

537
00:26:20.759 --> 00:26:26.839
<v Speaker 2>Yeah he was, he was on it, but you yeah, kids,

538
00:26:29.119 --> 00:26:29.400
<v Speaker 2>he was.

539
00:26:29.599 --> 00:26:32.400
<v Speaker 1>He was incredibly He was very personable. I was just

540
00:26:32.480 --> 00:26:35.160
<v Speaker 1>an extra for this movie. I wasn't doing anything of

541
00:26:35.200 --> 00:26:38.319
<v Speaker 1>major significance. Later I did some minor stunt work that

542
00:26:38.440 --> 00:26:41.720
<v Speaker 1>ended up getting cut, of course, But yeah, I got

543
00:26:41.720 --> 00:26:44.720
<v Speaker 1>to work with him, and I was standing like I

544
00:26:44.720 --> 00:26:46.759
<v Speaker 1>think I was sitting right behind him in a crowd

545
00:26:46.799 --> 00:26:49.559
<v Speaker 1>scene and in between takes, he was doing his thing.

546
00:26:50.119 --> 00:26:52.880
<v Speaker 1>But he was very down to earth and while he

547
00:26:53.000 --> 00:26:55.680
<v Speaker 1>was turning on Bernie Mack to a ten in his performances,

548
00:26:56.559 --> 00:26:58.480
<v Speaker 1>what he told us is that he always wanted to

549
00:26:58.480 --> 00:27:01.920
<v Speaker 1>be an actor and the comedy was his way into that. Yeah,

550
00:27:01.960 --> 00:27:04.480
<v Speaker 1>and so I just I thought that was really special.

551
00:27:04.559 --> 00:27:07.359
<v Speaker 2>Oh and so yeah, Chris Rock was great.

552
00:27:07.400 --> 00:27:09.720
<v Speaker 1>I did this one scene where the villain of the

553
00:27:09.759 --> 00:27:12.960
<v Speaker 1>movie he runs into me and I flail papers and

554
00:27:13.000 --> 00:27:15.799
<v Speaker 1>it got cut. But Chris Rock was going person to

555
00:27:15.839 --> 00:27:18.440
<v Speaker 1>person and he's like, nice job, you did great. And

556
00:27:18.440 --> 00:27:20.640
<v Speaker 1>he comes to me and he goes ah and it

557
00:27:20.720 --> 00:27:24.119
<v Speaker 1>keeps walking and I'm like, oh, goodie, I've been acknowledged.

558
00:27:24.720 --> 00:27:26.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah yeah, yeah, he gave you.

559
00:27:27.640 --> 00:27:28.200

<v Speaker 2>So it's gotta be good. We'll have another please.

562
00:27:34.240 --> 00:27:36.319
<v Speaker 3>I loved that movie growing up, and it's so crazy

563
00:27:36.359 --> 00:27:38.480
<v Speaker 3>to think, like that wasn't even that long ago, and

564
00:27:38.519 --> 00:27:40.759
<v Speaker 3>it was such a crazy concept to have a black

565
00:27:40.799 --> 00:27:43.039
<v Speaker 3>president that they made a whole comedy movie about it.

566
00:27:43.079 --> 00:27:44.640
<v Speaker 3>It was like, this is never gonna happen.

567
00:27:45.440 --> 00:27:48.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, this is never gonna happen famous

568
00:27:48.559 --> 00:27:49.039
<v Speaker 1>last words.

569
00:27:49.960 --> 00:27:50.359
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

570
00:27:50.480 --> 00:27:52.200
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, great movie though. I love that movie.

571
00:27:52.400 --> 00:27:52.640
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

572
00:27:52.720 --> 00:27:55.000
<v Speaker 1>So I was doing that around the area and just

573
00:27:55.079 --> 00:27:58.599
<v Speaker 1>kind of floating to production to production, and then my

574
00:27:58.640 --> 00:28:00.640
<v Speaker 1>buddy and I I was working at Black Blockbuster at

575
00:28:00.640 --> 00:28:05.160
<v Speaker 1>the time, was back in Maryland.

576
00:28:05.200 --> 00:28:05.960
<v Speaker 2>That's where I grew up.

577
00:28:06.039 --> 00:28:09.880
<v Speaker 1>I was born in DC and lived in Maryland and so, yeah,

578
00:28:09.920 --> 00:28:11.880
<v Speaker 1>at the time, I was a store manager at Blockbuster.

579
00:28:11.960 --> 00:28:14.319
<v Speaker 2>I think you had some history. I was a video

580
00:28:14.359 --> 00:28:14.920
<v Speaker 2>depot guy.

581
00:28:15.000 --> 00:28:17.240
<v Speaker 5>Okay, yeah, so you guys were competitions.

582
00:28:17.359 --> 00:28:21.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, coast to coast. That's wild.

583
00:28:21.720 --> 00:28:23.319
<v Speaker 1>I mean I was working at Target and then I

584
00:28:23.400 --> 00:28:25.839
<v Speaker 1>bumped over to Blockbuster. I loved it. I got to

585
00:28:25.880 --> 00:28:30.160
<v Speaker 1>work with movies and talk movies all day. Blockbuster didn't

586
00:28:30.160 --> 00:28:33.599
<v Speaker 1>do so well in the long term. But I was

587
00:28:33.640 --> 00:28:37.920
<v Speaker 1>walking around with my buddy Justin who we had done

588
00:28:37.960 --> 00:28:40.720
<v Speaker 1>some independent films together, and we became fast friends. And

589
00:28:40.759 --> 00:28:42.839
<v Speaker 1>we're walking around one day and we're like, what movie

590
00:28:42.880 --> 00:28:46.119
<v Speaker 1>isn't here? We should we should make our own movie.

591
00:28:46.599 --> 00:28:49.359
<v Speaker 1>What an amazing idea. So we're walking around and we're like,

592
00:28:49.400 --> 00:28:52.839
<v Speaker 1>we don't see anything. Let's let's make a movie called

593
00:28:52.920 --> 00:28:56.839
<v Speaker 1>Ninja's Versus Zombies. That's just the thing that came to mind.

594
00:28:57.400 --> 00:28:58.599
<v Speaker 2>And so we did.

595
00:28:58.680 --> 00:29:02.920
<v Speaker 1>We coupled together cast and crew, and we maxed out

596
00:29:02.920 --> 00:29:05.400
<v Speaker 1>credit cards and it was so low fi, but we

597
00:29:05.480 --> 00:29:07.799
<v Speaker 1>did it and we accomplished it, and we looked at

598
00:29:07.839 --> 00:29:09.519
<v Speaker 1>each other and we said we should we should do

599
00:29:09.519 --> 00:29:12.880
<v Speaker 1>it another, we should keep going. So we made Ninjas

600
00:29:12.960 --> 00:29:16.359
<v Speaker 1>Versus vampires, and vampires.

601
00:29:15.680 --> 00:29:18.839
<v Speaker 2>Commercially don't get along with anyone. No, no, they don't.

602
00:29:18.920 --> 00:29:22.599
<v Speaker 1>They always have to fight somebody God. So the zombies

603
00:29:22.599 --> 00:29:26.319
<v Speaker 1>didn't farewell, and then the Vampires. That became our most

604
00:29:26.319 --> 00:29:31.359
<v Speaker 1>commercially successful feature. We got it distributed worldwide, and I

605
00:29:31.440 --> 00:29:34.319
<v Speaker 1>think in twenty ten it was the most illegally downloaded

606
00:29:34.319 --> 00:29:38.359
<v Speaker 1>movie on the web, which, yeah, great, we didn't make

607
00:29:38.359 --> 00:29:41.039
<v Speaker 1>any money off of it, but great for saying that.

608
00:29:41.240 --> 00:29:42.680
<v Speaker 2>Nice trivia exactly.

609
00:29:43.079 --> 00:29:46.319
<v Speaker 1>And so we followed up with Ninjas Versus Monsters and

610
00:29:46.440 --> 00:29:48.039
<v Speaker 1>we and we left it there. We're like, we made

611
00:29:48.039 --> 00:29:51.279
<v Speaker 1>a trilogy that was fun. And so I kind of

612
00:29:51.279 --> 00:29:53.240
<v Speaker 1>became a big fish in a little pond, and I

613
00:29:53.359 --> 00:29:56.559
<v Speaker 1>was working on different productions as a producer. But my

614
00:29:56.720 --> 00:29:58.680
<v Speaker 1>aim was I want to be in it. I want

615
00:29:58.680 --> 00:30:00.000
<v Speaker 1>to be in it if I'm going to produce it.

616
00:30:00.160 --> 00:30:04.000
<v Speaker 1>So that's kind of what I was doing. And then

617
00:30:04.319 --> 00:30:07.319
<v Speaker 1>after a series of events, I was either going to

618
00:30:08.200 --> 00:30:12.000
<v Speaker 1>file paperwork to run for state Congress in Maryland because

619
00:30:12.000 --> 00:30:12.519
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to.

620
00:30:12.440 --> 00:30:16.119
<v Speaker 2>Bring obviously a career choice. Yeah, one of those things.

621
00:30:16.279 --> 00:30:17.039
<v Speaker 2>What the hell.

622
00:30:16.839 --> 00:30:19.920
<v Speaker 1>Well, there was a huge independent film community, including the

623
00:30:19.920 --> 00:30:24.480
<v Speaker 1>folks who made The Blair Witch project in Sanchez and

624
00:30:24.839 --> 00:30:27.599
<v Speaker 1>so many incredibly talented people who would work out of

625
00:30:27.599 --> 00:30:31.279
<v Speaker 1>Baltimore in DC, and they were taking the tax credits away,

626
00:30:31.279 --> 00:30:33.640
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, well, maybe that's something I could help with.

627
00:30:34.880 --> 00:30:36.519
<v Speaker 1>And then I said, well, maybe I could go to

628
00:30:36.640 --> 00:30:38.839
<v Speaker 1>LA and Hollywood and take a stab as a voice

629
00:30:38.880 --> 00:30:41.839
<v Speaker 1>actor too, because everyone keeps telling me you should do that,

630
00:30:42.200 --> 00:30:45.039
<v Speaker 1>And so I made the choice to pack up my

631
00:30:45.119 --> 00:30:48.400
<v Speaker 1>car and drive cross country and within the very first

632
00:30:48.480 --> 00:30:51.920
<v Speaker 1>year that I got here, Lucky the Leprechaun Donald Duck.

633
00:30:52.000 --> 00:30:52.720
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah.

634
00:30:52.759 --> 00:30:56.359
<v Speaker 1>It was the most life changing and incredible experience I've

635
00:30:56.359 --> 00:31:00.480
<v Speaker 1>ever had. Quite frankly, I think the right choice. Yeah, yeah,

636
00:31:00.480 --> 00:31:01.440
<v Speaker 1>I have no doubt about that.

637
00:31:02.119 --> 00:31:05.559
<v Speaker 2>I think you're pretty safe, pretty solid ground there legged

638
00:31:05.640 --> 00:31:09.079
<v Speaker 2>the Leprechaun. You know, can you tell everybody who that is?

639
00:31:09.119 --> 00:31:12.440
<v Speaker 2>Because I think there's a cereal and surreal cereal.

640
00:31:12.640 --> 00:31:16.519
<v Speaker 1>Yes, yes, there's a cereal with lots of marshmallowy goodness,

641
00:31:17.000 --> 00:31:22.079
<v Speaker 1>lots of artificial colors and sweet and delicious. And when

642
00:31:22.119 --> 00:31:24.240
<v Speaker 1>I was a child, I would pick out all the

643
00:31:24.279 --> 00:31:27.319
<v Speaker 1>marshmallows and I'd mush them into a ball and I

644
00:31:27.359 --> 00:31:29.720
<v Speaker 1>would eat the ball, and then it looked like I

645
00:31:29.839 --> 00:31:32.720
<v Speaker 1>murdered a unicorn because the colors were just imprinted on

646
00:31:32.759 --> 00:31:33.240
<v Speaker 1>my hands.

647
00:31:33.279 --> 00:31:37.160
<v Speaker 2>Yes, And were they in fact magically delicious.

648
00:31:37.200 --> 00:31:39.759
<v Speaker 1>They wereically magically delicious.

649
00:31:40.000 --> 00:31:44.079
<v Speaker 2>They're magically delicious. See that's where.

650
00:31:47.079 --> 00:31:52.039
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that commercial was everywhere, those commercials, they were everywhere, everywhere.

651
00:31:52.079 --> 00:31:56.240
<v Speaker 1>And so the day I started to book some work

652
00:31:56.400 --> 00:31:59.599
<v Speaker 1>when I moved to LA and everything was kind of

653
00:31:59.640 --> 00:32:02.319
<v Speaker 1>going up acording to plan. I was working at Target overnight,

654
00:32:02.920 --> 00:32:05.440
<v Speaker 1>managing all the trucks coming in and the freight going out.

655
00:32:05.319 --> 00:32:06.279
<v Speaker 2>All the drugs coming in.

656
00:32:06.519 --> 00:32:10.640
<v Speaker 1>Yes, all of those the trucks, the trucks struckly the

657
00:32:10.720 --> 00:32:12.759
<v Speaker 1>money at the end that was my drug.

658
00:32:13.480 --> 00:32:14.839
<v Speaker 2>And so I could feed myself.

659
00:32:15.759 --> 00:32:18.160
<v Speaker 1>But there was a point where I started to book

660
00:32:18.240 --> 00:32:20.599
<v Speaker 1>enough work and I'm like, I think it's time to

661
00:32:20.720 --> 00:32:24.359
<v Speaker 1>let go of working the nine to five and health

662
00:32:24.400 --> 00:32:28.119
<v Speaker 1>insurance and a steady paycheck. And so the day that

663
00:32:28.200 --> 00:32:31.319
<v Speaker 1>I said goodbye and I drove off the parking lot

664
00:32:31.359 --> 00:32:34.400
<v Speaker 1>at eight am, exhausted from work, my agent called and said,

665
00:32:34.400 --> 00:32:35.200
<v Speaker 1>you booked lucky.

666
00:32:35.559 --> 00:32:37.039
<v Speaker 2>Oh, there you go, And I.

667
00:32:37.039 --> 00:32:39.119
<v Speaker 1>Pulled over my car and I went, I booked Lucky.

668
00:32:39.240 --> 00:32:43.599
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I got lucky. You got lucky when you got lucky.

669
00:32:43.400 --> 00:32:46.920
<v Speaker 1>Lucky exactly, and so that moment was not lost on

670
00:32:47.000 --> 00:32:49.319
<v Speaker 1>me to say, you made this choice, you listened to

671
00:32:49.359 --> 00:32:51.880
<v Speaker 1>your gut, and you're being rewarded for that.

672
00:32:52.319 --> 00:32:56.799
<v Speaker 2>And I say instincts are the best stinks. Ye, and

673
00:32:56.920 --> 00:32:59.319
<v Speaker 2>they smell so good. It's got to be the way

674
00:32:59.319 --> 00:33:01.599
<v Speaker 2>to go. I had lots of beans the day before.

675
00:33:02.400 --> 00:33:08.119
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, So with Lucky, there's been several Lucky the

676
00:33:08.200 --> 00:33:11.480
<v Speaker 1>leprechauns over his I want to say sixty years and

677
00:33:11.559 --> 00:33:12.000
<v Speaker 1>he's been.

678
00:33:11.920 --> 00:33:15.359
<v Speaker 3>Around kind of yeah, I realized that now long Holy Covin.

679
00:33:15.480 --> 00:33:18.039
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I believe it's been about sixty years or just under,

680
00:33:18.160 --> 00:33:20.200
<v Speaker 1>like fifty eight, fifty nine, maybe sixty.

681
00:33:20.640 --> 00:33:24.799
<v Speaker 2>He invented cereal. Yeah, well, he's been around for long enough.

682
00:33:25.920 --> 00:33:29.720
<v Speaker 1>And so when I had my turn as Lucky, they

683
00:33:29.839 --> 00:33:34.119
<v Speaker 1>asked me to emulate a voice match Doug Prize, who

684
00:33:34.200 --> 00:33:36.039
<v Speaker 1>was I think one of the longest running ones. The

685
00:33:36.039 --> 00:33:39.240
<v Speaker 1>first one was Arthur Anderson and there were a few more,

686
00:33:39.279 --> 00:33:41.799
<v Speaker 1>and then Doug Preze had the longest run and he

687
00:33:41.920 --> 00:33:45.119
<v Speaker 1>had such a soft voice. He was a very soft voice,

688
00:33:45.519 --> 00:33:47.480
<v Speaker 1>and that's what they wanted. So I was there to

689
00:33:47.519 --> 00:33:51.680
<v Speaker 1>emulate Doug Preeze, and because it was a commercial agency.

690
00:33:51.799 --> 00:33:54.559
<v Speaker 1>You know, the voice transfers from person to person. There's

691
00:33:54.599 --> 00:33:57.599
<v Speaker 1>not always one person who does the voice. So I

692
00:33:57.720 --> 00:33:59.799
<v Speaker 1>was fortunate enough to be one of the few. And

693
00:34:00.079 --> 00:34:02.119
<v Speaker 1>it was just amazing. And people always ask me, do

694
00:34:02.119 --> 00:34:04.160
<v Speaker 1>you get free cereal? And I said no, they gave

695
00:34:04.160 --> 00:34:05.000
<v Speaker 1>me money so I could not.

696
00:34:05.480 --> 00:34:11.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Yeah, besides, I wouldn't have gotten Lucky Charms exactly. Sorry,

697
00:34:11.039 --> 00:34:15.880
<v Speaker 2>but I just yeah, shredded wheat. Never mind, that's all

698
00:34:15.960 --> 00:34:19.119
<v Speaker 2>you get. Okay, you get shredded wheat. What was your

699
00:34:19.159 --> 00:34:21.559
<v Speaker 2>favorite What was your favorite cereal growing up? Now that

700
00:34:21.599 --> 00:34:23.280
<v Speaker 2>we're talking about it, It was Lucky.

701
00:34:23.079 --> 00:34:25.519
<v Speaker 1>Charming, it was, and I never and I was never

702
00:34:25.559 --> 00:34:28.039
<v Speaker 1>allowed to have it unless I go visit my grandpa.

703
00:34:28.239 --> 00:34:29.880
<v Speaker 5>Sugar, You're gonna be bouncing off the walls.

704
00:34:29.960 --> 00:34:35.280
<v Speaker 1>Well, my father was a dentist, okay, diabetic. Sorry dad,

705
00:34:35.400 --> 00:34:38.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm spilling all the details. But uh yeah, so in

706
00:34:38.079 --> 00:34:41.719
<v Speaker 1>our household, that was that was a faux pap. And

707
00:34:41.760 --> 00:34:43.920
<v Speaker 1>so when I would visit my grandparents, they'd say, you

708
00:34:43.960 --> 00:34:46.079
<v Speaker 1>get whatever you want. I'd say, I'm getting this.

709
00:34:47.000 --> 00:34:51.760
<v Speaker 2>I was. I was a Sugar Pops guy and Coco Crispies, yes,

710
00:34:52.239 --> 00:34:55.000
<v Speaker 2>because then you had a bowl full of chocolate milk. Yeah,

711
00:34:55.119 --> 00:34:56.800
<v Speaker 2>at the end of it, after you got all the

712
00:34:56.880 --> 00:34:57.639
<v Speaker 2>cocoa crispies.

713
00:34:57.639 --> 00:34:59.360
<v Speaker 1>See, and I love the marshmallows. So for me it

714
00:34:59.360 --> 00:35:02.880
<v Speaker 1>was count chalky yeah, see chocolate.

715
00:35:03.039 --> 00:35:06.880
<v Speaker 5>I was raisin brand, you know what I was too.

716
00:35:07.320 --> 00:35:10.599
<v Speaker 3>I loved the juicy little Raisins double scoop raisin bran.

717
00:35:10.840 --> 00:35:15.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, crusted to me, possibly as best as it was

718
00:35:15.000 --> 00:35:15.800
<v Speaker 1>delicious whatever.

719
00:35:15.840 --> 00:35:16.199
<v Speaker 2>It was.

720
00:35:17.760 --> 00:35:21.119
<v Speaker 3>Weird reaction to sweets, Like when things are too sweet,

721
00:35:21.159 --> 00:35:23.880
<v Speaker 3>it's like it's almost like a spiciness for like other people,

722
00:35:23.920 --> 00:35:27.639
<v Speaker 3>you know, it's like it's too sugary, too sugary. I

723
00:35:27.760 --> 00:35:30.199
<v Speaker 3>like the yeah, the raisins or the ones you get

724
00:35:30.199 --> 00:35:32.800
<v Speaker 3>with like the almonds and the granola all in it.

725
00:35:32.880 --> 00:35:35.199
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, I love those ones. And they always market

726
00:35:35.239 --> 00:35:37.320
<v Speaker 3>it as you know, like the fit Cereal. I'm like,

727
00:35:37.400 --> 00:35:38.679
<v Speaker 3>this just tastes delicious.

728
00:35:39.320 --> 00:35:39.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

729
00:35:40.199 --> 00:35:42.079
<v Speaker 1>Well, as a kid, you weren't going to choose those

730
00:35:42.599 --> 00:35:44.480
<v Speaker 1>like I want the one with the cartoon character.

731
00:35:44.559 --> 00:35:46.840
<v Speaker 3>And oh I really did, I really did what I want.

732
00:35:47.000 --> 00:35:49.159
<v Speaker 3>I really did go for the raisin bran like that.

733
00:35:49.079 --> 00:35:50.599
<v Speaker 2>Was era of marketing.

734
00:35:50.800 --> 00:35:54.280
<v Speaker 3>In articular, were the toys. Remember they had toys in

735
00:35:54.320 --> 00:35:56.519
<v Speaker 3>the boxes. They used to have the toy at the

736
00:35:56.519 --> 00:35:59.519
<v Speaker 3>bottom and Cereal box. Absolutely there were some Cereals I

737
00:35:59.519 --> 00:36:02.559
<v Speaker 3>would buy just for the toy. Yeah, I just want

738
00:36:02.559 --> 00:36:03.000
<v Speaker 3>this toy.

739
00:36:03.519 --> 00:36:04.960
<v Speaker 2>And sometimes they weren't even good.

740
00:36:05.159 --> 00:36:07.599
<v Speaker 1>I know, you get like ooh, a sticker or like

741
00:36:07.639 --> 00:36:10.599
<v Speaker 1>an octopus that'll climb down the wall slowly or.

742
00:36:10.760 --> 00:36:13.599
<v Speaker 2>Something like that. That used to piss me off about Cracker check.

743
00:36:14.400 --> 00:36:18.280
<v Speaker 2>First they took away the peanuts, big mistake. What and

744
00:36:18.320 --> 00:36:21.559
<v Speaker 2>then that instead of getting a toy in it, you'd

745
00:36:21.559 --> 00:36:25.480
<v Speaker 2>get a sticker with a star on. Yeah, yeh, yeah, okay,

746
00:36:25.639 --> 00:36:27.480
<v Speaker 2>you ate the whole thing. You get a star.

747
00:36:27.840 --> 00:36:30.840
<v Speaker 3>Remember, I got a? I got a. They had a

748
00:36:31.000 --> 00:36:36.000
<v Speaker 3>demo CD of Spiro the video game in one of

749
00:36:36.039 --> 00:36:39.199
<v Speaker 3>the Cereal boxes, Like a full on, like fifteen minute

750
00:36:39.400 --> 00:36:42.400
<v Speaker 3>video game for your computer was in the serial box.

751
00:36:42.440 --> 00:36:44.480
<v Speaker 3>And I just think that's so crazy to think about

752
00:36:44.480 --> 00:36:46.920
<v Speaker 3>these stays, you know, like they were just handing that

753
00:36:47.000 --> 00:36:48.719
<v Speaker 3>out DVDs.

754
00:36:48.920 --> 00:36:51.679
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, and like you get an episode of something

755
00:36:51.880 --> 00:36:55.159
<v Speaker 1>right on DVD. But I'm of the generation. I still

756
00:36:55.159 --> 00:36:58.599
<v Speaker 1>remember when McDonald's had in the newspaper they had this

757
00:36:58.639 --> 00:37:02.199
<v Speaker 1>thing where you play a record and if if it

758
00:37:02.239 --> 00:37:05.039
<v Speaker 1>goes through the entire song where they read off the menu,

759
00:37:05.400 --> 00:37:07.960
<v Speaker 1>then you win a million dollars. Really, and so everybody

760
00:37:08.000 --> 00:37:11.079
<v Speaker 1>was buying up papers trying to get that. So incentivizing

761
00:37:11.119 --> 00:37:14.440
<v Speaker 1>you to buy something was a part and parcel to

762
00:37:14.679 --> 00:37:18.039
<v Speaker 1>my generation growing up. I think all the commercialism, all

763
00:37:18.039 --> 00:37:19.880
<v Speaker 1>the things I grew up with, the things I grew

764
00:37:19.960 --> 00:37:23.760
<v Speaker 1>up with you with, were, you know, selling toys, so

765
00:37:24.559 --> 00:37:25.480
<v Speaker 1>we're selling the product.

766
00:37:25.599 --> 00:37:30.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Well, they used to say that cartoons were filler

767
00:37:31.400 --> 00:37:35.320
<v Speaker 2>for selling whatever it is they were selling. They were

768
00:37:35.320 --> 00:37:38.880
<v Speaker 2>they had to. They couldn't just put on commercials, so

769
00:37:38.920 --> 00:37:41.079
<v Speaker 2>they threw a cartoon, a little slice of a cartoon

770
00:37:41.119 --> 00:37:43.599
<v Speaker 2>in here to shut the kid up and make them

771
00:37:43.599 --> 00:37:47.480
<v Speaker 2>pretend like they're not really there to buy cereal, all

772
00:37:47.559 --> 00:37:52.679
<v Speaker 2>the while, you know, infesting your little wee little brains.

773
00:37:52.840 --> 00:37:54.639
<v Speaker 2>I know, I never recovered.

774
00:37:55.400 --> 00:37:57.599
<v Speaker 3>We were just talking about this topic. Not too long ago,

775
00:37:57.679 --> 00:38:00.599
<v Speaker 3>we went to Disney World. Jim had the opening of

776
00:38:00.679 --> 00:38:04.800
<v Speaker 3>the new Splash Mountain. They remodeled it. They remodeled it

777
00:38:04.840 --> 00:38:07.320
<v Speaker 3>to be you know, Tiana's by you whatever, you ye,

778
00:38:08.559 --> 00:38:10.559
<v Speaker 3>Princess and the Frog, and we were talking about, you know,

779
00:38:10.599 --> 00:38:13.039
<v Speaker 3>we had the little Disney tour guy that Jim always gets,

780
00:38:13.039 --> 00:38:17.360
<v Speaker 3>you know, because he's a legend. And I'm looking around

781
00:38:17.360 --> 00:38:19.679
<v Speaker 3>the park and I mean, disney World is so much

782
00:38:19.719 --> 00:38:23.719
<v Speaker 3>more elaborate than Disneyland. Yes, just phenomenal. I mean the Avatar,

783
00:38:23.960 --> 00:38:28.400
<v Speaker 3>the tree, everything, and I'm looking around and in my mind,

784
00:38:28.480 --> 00:38:30.679
<v Speaker 3>I just see dollar signs spinning, like how much all

785
00:38:30.679 --> 00:38:32.760
<v Speaker 3>of this have caught? And then it dawned on me.

786
00:38:32.840 --> 00:38:36.400
<v Speaker 3>I was like, all these Marvel movies and every TV shows,

787
00:38:36.960 --> 00:38:40.360
<v Speaker 3>they're just advertising to get you to go to Disneyland.

788
00:38:40.719 --> 00:38:44.079
<v Speaker 3>Like they are billion dollar billboards to get you into

789
00:38:44.119 --> 00:38:47.159
<v Speaker 3>the Disney brand. Nothing more like they they make a

790
00:38:47.280 --> 00:38:50.280
<v Speaker 3>hundred times those that money. They don't care about the

791
00:38:50.280 --> 00:38:53.000
<v Speaker 3>movies and the shows. They want you to get into Disneyland.

792
00:38:53.000 --> 00:38:56.199
<v Speaker 3>At least that's my theory, because those parks are generating

793
00:38:56.280 --> 00:39:02.400
<v Speaker 3>so much revenue. It's like a movie. Yeah, yeah, spend

794
00:39:02.400 --> 00:39:04.760
<v Speaker 3>a billion dollars on Avengers.

795
00:39:05.679 --> 00:39:07.920
<v Speaker 2>On a magic key that. Spend a billion dollars on

796
00:39:07.960 --> 00:39:10.039
<v Speaker 2>a magic key pass. Yeah.

797
00:39:10.320 --> 00:39:13.320
<v Speaker 1>Honestly, my first experience with Disney World was only a

798
00:39:13.320 --> 00:39:16.840
<v Speaker 1>couple of years ago. It was after my mom had passed.

799
00:39:16.880 --> 00:39:20.440
<v Speaker 1>She loved the movie Avatar, and we always said, someday

800
00:39:20.480 --> 00:39:21.840
<v Speaker 1>we're going to get to go to Disney World and

801
00:39:21.880 --> 00:39:24.119
<v Speaker 1>we'll go ride the ride together. And that never happened,

802
00:39:24.159 --> 00:39:26.519
<v Speaker 1>but I went and did it for her, for us,

803
00:39:27.119 --> 00:39:28.519
<v Speaker 1>and so I went with a good thread.

804
00:39:28.639 --> 00:39:29.119
<v Speaker 2>Damn cool.

805
00:39:29.440 --> 00:39:33.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, just for the record, you get a chance do

806
00:39:33.400 --> 00:39:35.400
<v Speaker 1>it the second time. I'm going to talk in this

807
00:39:35.440 --> 00:39:38.159
<v Speaker 1>conversation that I wept at the end of that. It

808
00:39:38.199 --> 00:39:41.719
<v Speaker 1>was so beautiful and obviously the experience was very personal.

809
00:39:41.800 --> 00:39:45.760
<v Speaker 1>But my love for Disney was Disneyland. I mean, that

810
00:39:45.880 --> 00:39:49.039
<v Speaker 1>was Walt's vision in his creation, his first one, and

811
00:39:49.079 --> 00:39:50.840
<v Speaker 1>so I like to just go and sit on the

812
00:39:50.880 --> 00:39:53.559
<v Speaker 1>bench and take it in and people watch me too,

813
00:39:53.920 --> 00:39:57.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, as a small cog in the machine. To

814
00:39:58.760 --> 00:40:01.159
<v Speaker 1>just be there and to take it in is really

815
00:40:01.199 --> 00:40:04.920
<v Speaker 1>special to me. And now going to Disney World, I

816
00:40:05.119 --> 00:40:08.320
<v Speaker 1>was blown away by the scope of it, and I'm like,

817
00:40:08.400 --> 00:40:10.800
<v Speaker 1>this is yeah, this is like a billion.

818
00:40:10.880 --> 00:40:13.599
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you need to five billion dollars, need a go

819
00:40:13.719 --> 00:40:16.880
<v Speaker 2>cart to get around, you know, it's not at least

820
00:40:17.199 --> 00:40:19.000
<v Speaker 2>and use a helicopter in some of the places.

821
00:40:19.119 --> 00:40:21.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, well we would use what it was the mini vans,

822
00:40:21.960 --> 00:40:23.880
<v Speaker 1>the mini themed vans.

823
00:40:23.639 --> 00:40:25.280
<v Speaker 2>That they have running around those Yeah.

824
00:40:25.400 --> 00:40:26.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah.

825
00:40:26.440 --> 00:40:28.599
<v Speaker 2>I love going to the parks. Yeah yeah, me too.

826
00:40:28.639 --> 00:40:31.039
<v Speaker 1>And Princess and the frog. That's incredible.

827
00:40:31.119 --> 00:40:35.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, that's it's a really, really fantastic ride. And

828
00:40:36.039 --> 00:40:39.760
<v Speaker 2>I hope it doesn't break down anymore. We we we

829
00:40:39.760 --> 00:40:42.159
<v Speaker 2>were on the inaugural ride. We're all sitting there and

830
00:40:42.280 --> 00:40:44.280
<v Speaker 2>it's the whole cast and we're having a great time.

858
00:42:18.559 --> 00:42:21.320
<v Speaker 1>You know my one of the last Disney movies that

859
00:42:21.400 --> 00:42:23.840
<v Speaker 1>was too d animated, Princess and the Frog that was

860
00:42:23.880 --> 00:42:27.280
<v Speaker 1>in my Blockbuster store. It was in my Blockbuster store

861
00:42:27.280 --> 00:42:29.559
<v Speaker 1>and I kept recommending it to people and it sat

862
00:42:29.639 --> 00:42:30.679
<v Speaker 1>on the shelf.

863
00:42:30.760 --> 00:42:31.679
<v Speaker 2>Which broke my heart.

864
00:42:31.719 --> 00:42:32.480
<v Speaker 4>It was so good.

865
00:42:34.480 --> 00:42:36.920
<v Speaker 2>So I was so glad to see them actually acknowledging it.

866
00:42:36.880 --> 00:42:39.679
<v Speaker 1>They're going back to two D. I hope didn't we

867
00:42:39.719 --> 00:42:42.800
<v Speaker 1>read that somewhere. I think I saw something similar. I

868
00:42:42.800 --> 00:42:44.079
<v Speaker 1>hope it. I hope it stinks.

869
00:42:44.440 --> 00:42:44.679
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

870
00:42:44.760 --> 00:42:47.920
<v Speaker 1>I love three D. I love CG. But it's no

871
00:42:48.039 --> 00:42:51.480
<v Speaker 1>longer a novelty. It's it's the status quo.

872
00:42:51.480 --> 00:42:53.800
<v Speaker 3>And just leave it for video games, like video games

873
00:42:53.800 --> 00:42:54.760
<v Speaker 3>are great storytellers.

874
00:42:54.840 --> 00:42:58.199
<v Speaker 1>Here TD video games too, for sure, Oh absolut, yeah,

875
00:42:58.480 --> 00:42:59.280
<v Speaker 1>oh yeah.

876
00:42:59.400 --> 00:43:02.559
<v Speaker 3>We were just Colleen O'Shaughnessy. We were talking about the

877
00:43:02.639 --> 00:43:06.239
<v Speaker 3>south Park game yesterday just does a voice voices in there,

878
00:43:06.280 --> 00:43:08.559
<v Speaker 3>and that was one of my favorite video games ever.

879
00:43:08.599 --> 00:43:10.679
<v Speaker 3>It feels like you're in south Park. It feels like

880
00:43:10.679 --> 00:43:12.920
<v Speaker 3>you're actually a character in south Park, and it's all

881
00:43:12.920 --> 00:43:14.920
<v Speaker 3>two D. You know, it's just like the show. Its great,

882
00:43:14.960 --> 00:43:15.599
<v Speaker 3>it's phenomenal.

883
00:43:15.639 --> 00:43:18.800
<v Speaker 1>And then you got stuff like Cuphead. Yeah, parkens back

884
00:43:18.840 --> 00:43:20.719
<v Speaker 1>to like the Fleischer animation days.

885
00:43:21.079 --> 00:43:24.000
<v Speaker 2>I love the way that looks. So was it something

886
00:43:24.039 --> 00:43:26.840
<v Speaker 2>in the Cuphead? What was the other one? What's the

887
00:43:26.880 --> 00:43:30.800
<v Speaker 2>whole name? Or is it just Cuphead? Okay, I remember that,

888
00:43:31.119 --> 00:43:33.159
<v Speaker 2>but I remember looking at that going, oh, this is

889
00:43:33.239 --> 00:43:36.239
<v Speaker 2>like right up my alley. It's got that look. It's

890
00:43:36.280 --> 00:43:39.639
<v Speaker 2>got kind of like vaguely nineteen twenty nineteen.

891
00:43:39.880 --> 00:43:42.480
<v Speaker 1>But even the voice, in the feel of the audio

892
00:43:42.559 --> 00:43:45.719
<v Speaker 1>itself that tinmy, you know, nature of the microphones.

893
00:43:45.800 --> 00:43:49.320
<v Speaker 2>I just love it, really doos and I love that.

894
00:43:49.480 --> 00:43:51.239
<v Speaker 1>I love it when you can say, oh, we're not

895
00:43:51.239 --> 00:43:53.079
<v Speaker 1>going to do what everybody else is doing, let's do

896
00:43:53.159 --> 00:43:53.800
<v Speaker 1>something different.

897
00:43:54.440 --> 00:43:54.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

898
00:43:55.199 --> 00:43:58.119
<v Speaker 1>But your character in Princess and the Frog remind me

899
00:43:58.159 --> 00:43:58.920
<v Speaker 1>of his name again.

900
00:43:59.079 --> 00:44:00.559
<v Speaker 2>Oh Ray Ray, that's right.

901
00:44:01.639 --> 00:44:03.519
<v Speaker 1>I was so tickled when I saw your name in

902
00:44:03.559 --> 00:44:05.360
<v Speaker 1>the credits because I went, wait a minute.

903
00:44:05.119 --> 00:44:06.000
<v Speaker 4>That was Jim.

904
00:44:06.280 --> 00:44:08.119
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, yeah, that was Jim.

905
00:44:08.760 --> 00:44:12.480
<v Speaker 1>There's a reason I was like that, and it's because, Jim,

906
00:44:12.559 --> 00:44:16.519
<v Speaker 1>you were the first voice actor that I recognized as

907
00:44:16.559 --> 00:44:19.480
<v Speaker 1>a voice across different shows when I was a kid.

908
00:44:19.639 --> 00:44:20.440
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, I was.

909
00:44:20.519 --> 00:44:24.840
<v Speaker 1>Disney Afternoon, Chip and Dale, Rescue Rangers, Tail Spin, and

910
00:44:24.920 --> 00:44:28.480
<v Speaker 1>so I remember listening you know, dark Wing Duck. That

911
00:44:28.559 --> 00:44:30.960
<v Speaker 1>voice sounds really familiar. I can't put my finger on it.

912
00:44:30.960 --> 00:44:35.360
<v Speaker 1>Then I hear Don Carnage. That sounds really familiar. Monterey Jack.

913
00:44:35.599 --> 00:44:37.800
<v Speaker 1>There's a through line here. And then I go to

914
00:44:37.840 --> 00:44:40.280
<v Speaker 1>look at the credits and I see your name, and

915
00:44:40.320 --> 00:44:41.679
<v Speaker 1>I went, wow.

916
00:44:41.400 --> 00:44:43.599
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I've had a couple of people tell me that, actually.

917
00:44:43.280 --> 00:44:47.960
<v Speaker 1>That one person is doing all these different voices. That

918
00:44:48.079 --> 00:44:51.039
<v Speaker 1>was the first time I recognized that, as just a

919
00:44:51.119 --> 00:44:55.639
<v Speaker 1>regular person enjoying cartoons doing silly voices, there's one person.

920
00:44:55.719 --> 00:44:57.760
<v Speaker 1>Then I went back and went, oh and mel blank

921
00:44:57.840 --> 00:44:59.920
<v Speaker 1>did all the voices on you know, let me tune,

922
00:45:00.119 --> 00:45:03.800
<v Speaker 1>and this, here's Rob Paulson, and here's you know, Jim

923
00:45:03.840 --> 00:45:06.199
<v Speaker 1>and so many others. And that was like a light

924
00:45:06.239 --> 00:45:08.679
<v Speaker 1>bulb moment that went off. So when I saw your

925
00:45:08.760 --> 00:45:12.000
<v Speaker 1>name and the credits, I went, I got fooled, because

926
00:45:12.039 --> 00:45:15.039
<v Speaker 1>I think I can hear when Jim's doing his character voices,

927
00:45:15.079 --> 00:45:17.840
<v Speaker 1>but that one fooled me, and I went, wow, he

928
00:45:18.480 --> 00:45:21.320
<v Speaker 1>still got it.

929
00:45:19.320 --> 00:45:23.639
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's good stuff you used to do. Stuff you

930
00:45:23.679 --> 00:45:25.679
<v Speaker 2>used to get me kicked out of class. Mmm, that's

931
00:45:25.719 --> 00:45:26.360
<v Speaker 2>what I always say.

932
00:45:26.400 --> 00:45:27.280
<v Speaker 3>You want me both man?

933
00:45:27.360 --> 00:45:31.679
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, yeah, so much for that. Yeah, it's better

934
00:45:31.719 --> 00:45:32.559
<v Speaker 2>outside in the hall.

935
00:45:33.440 --> 00:45:36.440
<v Speaker 1>How do you? Obviously you know your Instagram better than anybody.

936
00:45:36.719 --> 00:45:41.559
<v Speaker 1>And I think the biggest departure from your typical voices

937
00:45:41.599 --> 00:45:43.960
<v Speaker 1>that I hear you do are things like Winnie the Pooh.

938
00:45:44.000 --> 00:45:46.800
<v Speaker 1>It's just it's so fundamentally different from everything.

939
00:45:46.840 --> 00:45:49.199
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, well good, yeah, well that's the idea.

940
00:45:49.320 --> 00:45:52.840
<v Speaker 1>And then obviously you do movie trailers and and you

941
00:45:52.880 --> 00:45:55.880
<v Speaker 1>know you sing gosh. When I found out you were

942
00:45:56.280 --> 00:46:00.360
<v Speaker 1>doubling Scar in The Lion King and in Pokahon.

943
00:46:00.079 --> 00:46:07.400
<v Speaker 2>Tiles, Hercules, Anastasia. Yeah, my wall up there? Okay, who

944
00:46:07.480 --> 00:46:08.639
<v Speaker 2>else is anyway?

945
00:46:08.679 --> 00:46:08.920
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

946
00:46:09.440 --> 00:46:10.800
<v Speaker 1>Was Hunchback in there too.

947
00:46:11.880 --> 00:46:13.840
<v Speaker 2>I was. I did like two or three characters in it,

948
00:46:14.599 --> 00:46:17.639
<v Speaker 2>singing great Tony j.

949
00:46:18.079 --> 00:46:22.599
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so what an amazing voice him and Paul Freeze,

950
00:46:23.960 --> 00:46:24.559
<v Speaker 1>those voices.

951
00:46:24.599 --> 00:46:26.559
<v Speaker 5>I just remember, do you sing?

952
00:46:27.320 --> 00:46:27.719
<v Speaker 2>I can.

953
00:46:27.960 --> 00:46:30.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't get to do it very often, but I do.

954
00:46:31.079 --> 00:46:35.480
<v Speaker 1>I just released a song on my socials. There's a musical,

955
00:46:36.039 --> 00:46:38.880
<v Speaker 1>an animated musical that's in development, and they had a

956
00:46:38.920 --> 00:46:40.599
<v Speaker 1>villain song, and so I was like, let me take

957
00:46:40.639 --> 00:46:42.119
<v Speaker 1>a shot at it, and so I did.

958
00:46:42.360 --> 00:46:44.400
<v Speaker 2>I love villains. There's so much fun.

959
00:46:44.880 --> 00:46:48.920
<v Speaker 1>I did a cover of Toxic Love from fern Gully

960
00:46:49.400 --> 00:46:54.480
<v Speaker 1>with hexas Tim Curry's Toxic Love. Toxic Love. That's where

961
00:46:54.519 --> 00:47:01.360
<v Speaker 1>he's singing, Uh, slime beneath me, slime up ooh you

962
00:47:01.880 --> 00:47:02.679
<v Speaker 1>love my.

963
00:47:05.400 --> 00:47:10.599
<v Speaker 2>Talksic glove. Yeah that was a little too good. You're

964
00:47:10.639 --> 00:47:13.360
<v Speaker 2>Tim Curry. Tim.

965
00:47:13.519 --> 00:47:15.920
<v Speaker 1>I was just doing it out of appreciation. But yeah,

966
00:47:16.119 --> 00:47:16.800
<v Speaker 1>I love to sing.

967
00:47:17.079 --> 00:47:19.039
<v Speaker 2>I love to sing. It's so much fun.

968
00:47:19.760 --> 00:47:23.079
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And we did some singing as Donald, which was difficult.

969
00:47:25.280 --> 00:47:26.320
<v Speaker 2>That was tough.

970
00:47:26.679 --> 00:47:30.159
<v Speaker 1>Folding notes and I discovered I could add some vibrato

971
00:47:30.760 --> 00:47:32.880
<v Speaker 1>to Donald, and I'm like, oh, let's use this.

972
00:47:32.960 --> 00:47:34.320
<v Speaker 5>Wow, that sounds like a challenge.

973
00:47:35.760 --> 00:47:42.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I can't even that's it. That sounds good. Were

974
00:47:42.880 --> 00:47:43.239
<v Speaker 2>you here?

975
00:47:43.280 --> 00:47:43.960
<v Speaker 1>Your here?

976
00:47:46.920 --> 00:47:53.239
<v Speaker 2>Very good? Thank you, fantastic one. My God. Are the

977
00:47:53.280 --> 00:47:56.519
<v Speaker 2>things that we do for for love and art? That's

978
00:47:56.599 --> 00:47:57.679
<v Speaker 2>really what it boils down to.

979
00:47:58.000 --> 00:47:58.400
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

980
00:47:58.440 --> 00:47:59.280
<v Speaker 2>I love what I do.

981
00:47:59.480 --> 00:48:01.280
<v Speaker 1>You love what you do, and I want to keep

982
00:48:01.280 --> 00:48:02.760
<v Speaker 1>doing it for the rest of my life in any

983
00:48:02.840 --> 00:48:05.360
<v Speaker 1>way that I can. And if it means I sing, great,

984
00:48:05.360 --> 00:48:07.039
<v Speaker 1>if it means I do my own voice or I

985
00:48:07.039 --> 00:48:11.119
<v Speaker 1>put on a voice, Yeah, you just did that one.

986
00:48:11.159 --> 00:48:14.159
<v Speaker 3>I just did. Do you still go for on camera stuff?

987
00:48:14.880 --> 00:48:19.719
<v Speaker 1>You know, I really spent the past decade focusing entirely

988
00:48:19.760 --> 00:48:24.079
<v Speaker 1>on voiceover. I believed that if I was to be successful,

989
00:48:24.719 --> 00:48:26.800
<v Speaker 1>I needed to put everything that I had into it,

990
00:48:26.840 --> 00:48:30.280
<v Speaker 1>every ounce of my creative being and my time. And

991
00:48:30.360 --> 00:48:33.920
<v Speaker 1>that was a worth worthwhile gamble. And so now I'm

992
00:48:33.920 --> 00:48:36.280
<v Speaker 1>at a point where I'd like to branch back out.

993
00:48:36.360 --> 00:48:37.800
<v Speaker 2>I do miss the medium.

994
00:48:38.480 --> 00:48:42.480
<v Speaker 1>But I was doing a movie two years ago called

995
00:48:42.519 --> 00:48:47.000
<v Speaker 1>Stinky Summer, and it's like Stinky Stinky Summer, and I

996
00:48:47.039 --> 00:48:50.840
<v Speaker 1>play a bad guy similar to the Bad Guys and

997
00:48:50.920 --> 00:48:53.360
<v Speaker 1>Home Alone Okay, so the movie is like Home Alone

998
00:48:53.400 --> 00:48:57.159
<v Speaker 1>but at summer camp. Yeah yeah, and so the kids

999
00:48:57.159 --> 00:49:00.360
<v Speaker 1>set traps for me and beat me up and it.

1000
00:49:00.119 --> 00:49:03.880
<v Speaker 2>Was just so much fun, lovable OAF exactly yeah, you

1001
00:49:04.000 --> 00:49:07.239
<v Speaker 2>got it, gets arrested at the end. Amazing.

1002
00:49:07.519 --> 00:49:10.639
<v Speaker 5>They do the classic tarring and feathering like parent trap.

1003
00:49:11.320 --> 00:49:13.760
<v Speaker 1>Well, they didn't quite have the budget I think for that,

1004
00:49:13.840 --> 00:49:17.639
<v Speaker 1>but similar similar I got. I got covered in glitter

1005
00:49:18.119 --> 00:49:20.440
<v Speaker 1>and ivy.

1006
00:49:20.760 --> 00:49:23.840
<v Speaker 3>That's the modern tar and feathering, glitter and butter.

1007
00:49:24.559 --> 00:49:26.880
<v Speaker 1>I got hit in the face at one point, which

1008
00:49:26.960 --> 00:49:29.119
<v Speaker 1>was which allowed me to use one of my random

1009
00:49:29.159 --> 00:49:31.360
<v Speaker 1>people tricks. I can do this thing with my eye

1010
00:49:31.360 --> 00:49:32.880
<v Speaker 1>where I can just kind of keep this, you know,

1011
00:49:32.960 --> 00:49:33.960
<v Speaker 1>around for a while.

1012
00:49:33.760 --> 00:49:34.840
<v Speaker 2>And look around the room.

1013
00:49:35.119 --> 00:49:36.840
<v Speaker 1>So I was able to use that for the movie,

1014
00:49:36.840 --> 00:49:37.400
<v Speaker 1>and it was fun.

1015
00:49:37.519 --> 00:49:41.440
<v Speaker 2>Rusy, Rusy, God rest her soul. She Rusy Taylor, the

1016
00:49:41.519 --> 00:49:44.800
<v Speaker 2>great mini mouse friend forever and ever. She used to

1017
00:49:44.840 --> 00:49:47.199
<v Speaker 2>be able to look right at you and I guess

1018
00:49:47.199 --> 00:49:49.400
<v Speaker 2>I'll do it to this camera. She'd look right at

1019
00:49:49.400 --> 00:49:51.519
<v Speaker 2>you and here her eyes were going like this, and

1020
00:49:51.559 --> 00:49:53.840
<v Speaker 2>when I would go like this, when I would go

1021
00:49:53.960 --> 00:49:56.039
<v Speaker 2>like that, then this I would Then she would do

1022
00:49:56.119 --> 00:49:58.440
<v Speaker 2>wall eyes. Then she would look. Then then she would

1023
00:49:58.440 --> 00:50:01.920
<v Speaker 2>scare herself and it was it was the damnedest thing.

1024
00:50:01.960 --> 00:50:04.440
<v Speaker 2>And I got a headache every time she did it.

1025
00:50:04.719 --> 00:50:07.000
<v Speaker 2>I said, I'm getting a headache on your behalf. Stop

1026
00:50:07.079 --> 00:50:11.679
<v Speaker 2>doing that, you know. And bless her heart. Yeah, and

1027
00:50:11.719 --> 00:50:14.239
<v Speaker 2>she she played. I worked with her a million times

1028
00:50:14.480 --> 00:50:16.239
<v Speaker 2>not to get off on a thing here, but she's

1029
00:50:16.280 --> 00:50:19.800
<v Speaker 2>such a sweetheart. And my favorite thing about Rusie Taylor

1030
00:50:20.559 --> 00:50:23.599
<v Speaker 2>is uh and I'll say this, and and she has

1031
00:50:23.679 --> 00:50:26.079
<v Speaker 2>no I'm not saying anything out of school. I mean,

1032
00:50:26.400 --> 00:50:29.519
<v Speaker 2>you know that. And she cussed like a sailor when

1033
00:50:29.599 --> 00:50:31.880
<v Speaker 2>she felt like it, and you know, to just hear

1034
00:50:31.920 --> 00:50:36.440
<v Speaker 2>this little angelic voice say, oh my, you know. And

1035
00:50:36.480 --> 00:50:40.079

1038
00:50:47.440 --> 00:50:53.480
<v Speaker 2>and then the princess leaned over and kissed the little frog.

00:51:35.840 --> 00:51:39.199
<v Speaker 2>we went out, and then twenty minutes later somebody came

1052
00:51:39.239 --> 00:51:42.679
<v Speaker 2>to said, Okay, you guys can come in now. I

1053
00:51:42.719 --> 00:51:45.800
<v Speaker 2>think we got something we can use, you know, and

1054
00:51:45.840 --> 00:51:48.840
<v Speaker 2>you're sitting in there with Minnie Mouse cussing her just

1055
00:51:48.920 --> 00:51:50.039
<v Speaker 2>the greatest Gallen the world.

1056
00:51:50.119 --> 00:51:53.320
<v Speaker 1>Well, you know, look, that's the privilege and luxury of

1057
00:51:53.599 --> 00:51:57.199
<v Speaker 1>knowing the people behind the scenes. You know, sometimes off camera,

1058
00:51:57.679 --> 00:52:00.559
<v Speaker 1>off the record. Uh, you know, we mass some things

1059
00:52:00.559 --> 00:52:03.159
<v Speaker 1>that are funny in person, but we would not share

1060
00:52:03.280 --> 00:52:07.960
<v Speaker 1>off Broadway exactly. Now, Russie, she gave me quite a gift.

1061
00:52:08.639 --> 00:52:11.800
<v Speaker 1>The last time I saw her, we were recording Mickey

1062
00:52:11.800 --> 00:52:14.960
<v Speaker 1>Mouse Mixed Up Adventures and I had met her. Kelly

1063
00:52:15.000 --> 00:52:17.519
<v Speaker 1>Ward introduced me to her after a session and I

1064
00:52:17.679 --> 00:52:22.639
<v Speaker 1>was overwhelmed, obviously to meet her. And she had pink hair,

1065
00:52:22.920 --> 00:52:24.199
<v Speaker 1>you know, on the back of her head.

1066
00:52:24.280 --> 00:52:24.960
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, yeah.

1067
00:52:25.000 --> 00:52:27.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, a walker at the time. And she was very sweet,

1068
00:52:27.840 --> 00:52:30.159
<v Speaker 1>but very very short with me, and you know, she

1069
00:52:30.239 --> 00:52:32.480
<v Speaker 1>went about her day. I was just excited to be

1070
00:52:32.519 --> 00:52:36.280
<v Speaker 1>in the room and you know, sucking some of the

1071
00:52:36.480 --> 00:52:37.239
<v Speaker 1>energy like this.

1072
00:52:37.800 --> 00:52:38.760
<v Speaker 2>Yes, you're amazing.

1073
00:52:39.400 --> 00:52:41.639
<v Speaker 1>And she warmed up to me over time and we

1074
00:52:41.679 --> 00:52:44.480
<v Speaker 1>would have conversation. But there was one time she poked

1075
00:52:44.480 --> 00:52:47.079
<v Speaker 1>her head out of the booth and she goes.

1076
00:52:47.079 --> 00:52:49.199
<v Speaker 2>Oh, Daniel, do the voice, honey.

1077
00:52:49.920 --> 00:52:52.000
<v Speaker 1>I said, well, one voice, what are you talking about.

1078
00:52:52.039 --> 00:52:54.440
<v Speaker 1>She goes, oh, you know, do the voice, and I

1079
00:52:54.480 --> 00:52:58.639
<v Speaker 1>said darn, and she broke out into Huey, Dewey and

1080
00:52:58.679 --> 00:53:03.280
<v Speaker 1>Louie those voices. And we had a whole conversation as

1081
00:53:03.400 --> 00:53:08.119
<v Speaker 1>Uncle Donald and the nephews. And to me, that was

1082
00:53:08.360 --> 00:53:12.000
<v Speaker 1>just I was in heaven. I was in heaven and

1083
00:53:12.239 --> 00:53:14.320
<v Speaker 1>it was the last time I saw her. It was

1084
00:53:14.360 --> 00:53:17.320
<v Speaker 1>the last time I saw her. I will never forget that.

1085
00:53:17.400 --> 00:53:21.679
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeaheart, Yeah, no kidding. Well, her and Wayne, I

1086
00:53:21.719 --> 00:53:24.079
<v Speaker 2>remember the two of them when they got married. They

1087
00:53:24.519 --> 00:53:27.039
<v Speaker 2>did it on the down low because they didn't want

1088
00:53:27.440 --> 00:53:30.719
<v Speaker 2>And I was thinking, why I would let who cares?

1089
00:53:30.920 --> 00:53:38.719
<v Speaker 2>Mickey and Minnie got married. Yeah, okay, that's come on,

1090
00:53:39.400 --> 00:53:42.119
<v Speaker 2>But you mean they really are married. They finally got married.

1091
00:53:42.119 --> 00:53:45.199
<v Speaker 2>He finally made it an honest woman of her what

1092
00:53:45.440 --> 00:53:49.960
<v Speaker 2>you know, Donald and days you're still dead. Yeah, that's

<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

1100
00:54:09.719 --> 00:54:11.440
<v Speaker 3>Did you do a lot of impressions growing up?

1101
00:54:11.599 --> 00:54:11.760
<v Speaker 2>Oh?

1102
00:54:11.840 --> 00:54:14.559
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that was That was the main thing. That was

1103
00:54:14.760 --> 00:54:17.000
<v Speaker 1>how I knew the voice acting would eventually be what

1104
00:54:17.000 --> 00:54:20.159
<v Speaker 1>I would get into because I would impersonate the Looney Tunes.

1105
00:54:19.920 --> 00:54:21.840
<v Speaker 2>Character or your parents or that.

1106
00:54:22.920 --> 00:54:26.639
<v Speaker 1>Just get out of school today and so we can't

1107
00:54:26.639 --> 00:54:30.119
<v Speaker 1>come in and they're like, we know it's you. Yeah, yeah,

1108
00:54:30.480 --> 00:54:31.800
<v Speaker 1>stop it, you got to be here.

1109
00:54:31.920 --> 00:54:36.159
<v Speaker 2>Okay. Well, see I was popular with kids because you know,

1110
00:54:36.280 --> 00:54:40.079
<v Speaker 2>I would uh, you know, we'd skips go occasionally. And

1111
00:54:40.119 --> 00:54:44.360
<v Speaker 2>then my buddy Carlos Rosario, he said, you know, you

1112
00:54:44.440 --> 00:54:47.400
<v Speaker 2>have to call the school now and and be my dad.

1113
00:54:48.280 --> 00:54:50.039
<v Speaker 2>And I said, so I have to be your dad?

1114
00:54:50.199 --> 00:54:52.480
<v Speaker 2>And I go, yeah, what is his name? And he said, oh,

1115
00:54:52.519 --> 00:54:56.400
<v Speaker 2>by the way, you know we're from Ecuador, and I

1116
00:54:56.440 --> 00:55:01.840
<v Speaker 2>said the equator, no, no, no, So I had to

1117
00:55:01.920 --> 00:55:06.480
<v Speaker 2>sound Carlos can be coming into school today, you know so,

1118
00:55:06.559 --> 00:55:09.119
<v Speaker 2>and I thought I'm gonna save under that, and then

1119
00:55:09.159 --> 00:55:12.599
<v Speaker 2>I twisted him into dun Karnage. Yeah, thirty years later.

1120
00:55:13.000 --> 00:55:15.840
<v Speaker 2>So you know, you never know where you gonna come

1121
00:55:15.920 --> 00:55:19.800
<v Speaker 2>up with the perspiration or the inspiration, right for these guys, right.

1122
00:55:19.679 --> 00:55:21.760
<v Speaker 1>I mean usually we find something that we're comfortable. I

1123
00:55:21.800 --> 00:55:23.239
<v Speaker 1>keep up with the mic. We can come up with

1124
00:55:23.280 --> 00:55:25.639
<v Speaker 1>something we're comfortable with and then Mesh and Marsh and

1125
00:55:25.719 --> 00:55:28.000
<v Speaker 1>put them together. And yeah, a lot of the times

1126
00:55:28.000 --> 00:55:29.440
<v Speaker 1>it's people we know in real life.

1127
00:55:30.639 --> 00:55:33.920
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, yeah yeah. And is that a process for you, Like, yeah,

1128
00:55:33.920 --> 00:55:35.360
<v Speaker 2>the first thing you do is you look at a

1129
00:55:35.400 --> 00:55:38.960
<v Speaker 2>picture and then you you try.

1130
00:55:38.760 --> 00:55:41.719
<v Speaker 1>To see if there's something similar or I usually go

1131
00:55:41.760 --> 00:55:44.559
<v Speaker 1>to the script first. I'll avoid the picture to begin

1132
00:55:44.639 --> 00:55:46.760
<v Speaker 1>with because I want to see what the acting part

1133
00:55:46.840 --> 00:55:48.320
<v Speaker 1>is going to be. I want to see what I'm

1134
00:55:48.360 --> 00:55:50.960
<v Speaker 1>pulling out of myself first, and then then in my

1135
00:55:51.039 --> 00:55:54.480
<v Speaker 1>process I'll augmental incorporate the picture. You know, are they

1136
00:55:54.480 --> 00:55:57.559
<v Speaker 1>wearing raki or you know, what's going on with them.

1137
00:55:57.599 --> 00:56:00.280
<v Speaker 1>Do they have really like big cheeks? You know, what

1138
00:56:00.320 --> 00:56:02.159
<v Speaker 1>am I going to add to that character? Or who

1139
00:56:02.199 --> 00:56:02.840
<v Speaker 1>do I know who.

1140
00:56:02.800 --> 00:56:03.800
<v Speaker 2>Has really big cheeks?

1141
00:56:05.000 --> 00:56:10.760
<v Speaker 3>So it's right, you wouldn't know what.

1142
00:56:11.559 --> 00:56:17.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that was my cheat. Well you know, and then

1143
00:56:17.480 --> 00:56:19.840
<v Speaker 2>you know, you don't have to say anything because it

1144
00:56:19.880 --> 00:56:23.880
<v Speaker 2>sounds that weird sound. And that's all that I would

1145
00:56:23.920 --> 00:56:25.239
<v Speaker 2>gravitate to when I was a kid.

1146
00:56:25.320 --> 00:56:29.519
<v Speaker 1>I just loved the unique voices of the eighties in particular,

1147
00:56:30.159 --> 00:56:33.599
<v Speaker 1>and even like the McDonald's commercials which Russy worked on

1148
00:56:33.760 --> 00:56:34.719
<v Speaker 1>as as Birdie.

1149
00:56:34.760 --> 00:56:37.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Grimace and Birdie and whoever those other characters.

1150
00:56:38.039 --> 00:56:40.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but the Hamburglar and oh.

1151
00:56:40.239 --> 00:56:40.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, may.

1152
00:56:45.960 --> 00:56:47.239
<v Speaker 3>What happens to all those goons?

1153
00:56:47.440 --> 00:56:50.639
<v Speaker 1>Well, I voiced Grimace now, which is full circle, and

1154
00:56:50.679 --> 00:56:53.360
<v Speaker 1>I think there's only been four of us, including Frank Welker.

1155
00:56:53.519 --> 00:56:55.639
<v Speaker 3>Wow, good company.

1156
00:56:55.920 --> 00:56:57.719
<v Speaker 1>When he when he was doing his turn, I could

1157
00:56:57.760 --> 00:56:59.800
<v Speaker 1>I could tell it was Frank because we kind of

1158
00:56:59.840 --> 00:57:02.679
<v Speaker 1>have Barney Rubble kind of thing going on, and and

1159
00:57:02.840 --> 00:57:06.519
<v Speaker 1>he was. It was just like, oh, that's a voice

1160
00:57:06.519 --> 00:57:08.760
<v Speaker 1>that I am picking up on. And it's just so

1161
00:57:08.880 --> 00:57:11.960
<v Speaker 1>strange that my career thus far has been a lot

1162
00:57:12.039 --> 00:57:15.679
<v Speaker 1>of these legacy characters things that have come before.

1163
00:57:17.199 --> 00:57:19.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I love it. Well, that's nothing wrong with that.

1164
00:57:19.239 --> 00:57:22.039
<v Speaker 3>Have you seen one of the Grimace like horror memes

1165
00:57:23.039 --> 00:57:23.760
<v Speaker 3>haunting people?

1166
00:57:23.760 --> 00:57:26.440
<v Speaker 2>Oh? Yes, I was, Uh I haven't seen that.

1167
00:57:26.920 --> 00:57:28.639
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so a couple of years ago that.

1168
00:57:29.119 --> 00:57:31.639
<v Speaker 2>Movie or something.

1169
00:57:31.000 --> 00:57:35.000
<v Speaker 3>It's not a full blown movie, but it's blood. Yeah.

1170
00:57:38.880 --> 00:57:42.199
<v Speaker 3>I can't wait to hear what that's a forbidden name

1171
00:57:42.239 --> 00:57:45.639
<v Speaker 3>on this podcast. We're going to bleep that title. Cut

1172
00:57:45.639 --> 00:57:50.679
<v Speaker 3>that out, Zach, these are your instructions. Get that out

1173
00:57:50.719 --> 00:57:51.000
<v Speaker 3>of here.

1174
00:57:52.599 --> 00:57:57.239
<v Speaker 1>Oh, there were a couple of years ago there was

1175
00:57:57.280 --> 00:58:00.599
<v Speaker 1>a trend that popped up on social media with the shake.

1176
00:58:00.920 --> 00:58:06.280
<v Speaker 1>So McDonald's was offering a purple shake to celebrate Grimace's birthday. Harmless, fun,

1177
00:58:06.519 --> 00:58:10.400
<v Speaker 1>amazing you met like that kind of shake? No, not

1178
00:58:10.480 --> 00:58:13.519
<v Speaker 1>that kind of shit, the kind that apparently you pour

1179
00:58:13.639 --> 00:58:16.079
<v Speaker 1>all over yourself, because that's what people ended up doing.

1180
00:58:17.119 --> 00:58:21.440
<v Speaker 1>And so I was grateful to be voicing the character

1181
00:58:21.559 --> 00:58:24.000
<v Speaker 1>for a couple of TV spots and it just excited

1182
00:58:24.000 --> 00:58:26.880
<v Speaker 1>to be playing a character that I know from my childhood.

1183
00:58:27.159 --> 00:58:31.239
<v Speaker 1>And all of a sudden, online I started getting messages,

1184
00:58:31.519 --> 00:58:34.440
<v Speaker 1>why why did you kidnap my family? Give me my

1185
00:58:34.559 --> 00:58:37.519
<v Speaker 1>dog back? Why did you burn our house down, Please

1186
00:58:37.559 --> 00:58:38.400
<v Speaker 1>Grimace stop.

1187
00:58:39.159 --> 00:58:41.880
<v Speaker 2>And I'm like, what did I just get canceled? What

1188
00:58:41.880 --> 00:58:42.480
<v Speaker 2>did I do?

1189
00:58:43.679 --> 00:58:46.480
<v Speaker 1>It became a thing where people would drink the shake

1190
00:58:47.119 --> 00:58:49.559
<v Speaker 1>and then they'd come up with all these creative ways

1191
00:58:49.599 --> 00:58:53.599
<v Speaker 1>to be dead with the shake port all over themselves

1192
00:58:54.360 --> 00:58:55.920
<v Speaker 1>and this is real.

1193
00:58:56.599 --> 00:58:57.760
<v Speaker 2>It's real, and.

1194
00:58:57.719 --> 00:59:01.719
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, and there were some really creative takes. Even

1195
00:59:01.719 --> 00:59:04.599
<v Speaker 1>some celebrities got in on it, and uh.

1196
00:59:05.280 --> 00:59:06.119
<v Speaker 3>It was really funny.

1197
00:59:06.159 --> 00:59:06.920
<v Speaker 2>It just it took.

1198
00:59:07.000 --> 00:59:10.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't think anybody at the PR firm for McDonald's

1199
00:59:10.360 --> 00:59:14.320
<v Speaker 1>knew that this was going to happen. Yeah, so then

1200
00:59:14.360 --> 00:59:16.960
<v Speaker 1>it turned into well, no, we need justice for Grimace

1201
00:59:17.000 --> 00:59:18.599
<v Speaker 1>because he didn't commit these crimes.

1202
00:59:20.119 --> 00:59:24.119
<v Speaker 2>Wow, I missed this whole shebang. It was wild. It

1203
00:59:24.199 --> 00:59:25.880
<v Speaker 2>was wild, so Jesus.

1204
00:59:26.159 --> 00:59:28.400
<v Speaker 1>I was just grateful to be earning a paycheck and

1205
00:59:28.400 --> 00:59:30.880
<v Speaker 1>playing a character that I adore, and here it took

1206
00:59:30.880 --> 00:59:33.920
<v Speaker 1>on this whole other life. And I just think it's

1207
00:59:33.960 --> 00:59:36.639
<v Speaker 1>funny to this day. Tickles me purple.

1208
00:59:36.880 --> 00:59:38.000
<v Speaker 3>I thought it was hilarious.

1209
00:59:38.159 --> 00:59:39.280
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I.

1210
00:59:40.800 --> 00:59:43.159
<v Speaker 3>Just always remember this one video somebody made it. It was

1211
00:59:43.199 --> 00:59:45.679
<v Speaker 3>like Grimace like out in a field and it was

1212
00:59:45.719 --> 00:59:48.079
<v Speaker 3>like yeah, edited like the ring and it was like

1213
00:59:48.480 --> 00:59:52.400
<v Speaker 3>getting closer with every jump cut and just so silly.

1214
00:59:52.440 --> 00:59:54.880
<v Speaker 5>The internet culture is so funny to be and.

1215
00:59:54.880 --> 00:59:58.800
<v Speaker 1>Yet McDonald's made money hand over fist because people would

1216
00:59:58.840 --> 01:00:01.079
<v Speaker 1>go in, they'd buy the shake on themselves and leave.

1217
01:00:01.320 --> 01:00:04.920
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, speak of this is such a tangent, but I'm sorry,

1218
01:00:04.960 --> 01:00:08.960
<v Speaker 3>I'm gonna bring it up anyway. Speaking of purple and McDonald's,

1219
01:00:09.360 --> 01:00:12.800
<v Speaker 3>did you know that like every country and even cities

1220
01:00:12.880 --> 01:00:17.239
<v Speaker 3>have like different menu options for McDonald's. I was in Bangkok, Thailand,

1221
01:00:17.559 --> 01:00:20.000
<v Speaker 3>and you know the little apple pies they have. They

1222
01:00:20.039 --> 01:00:21.719
<v Speaker 3>had I still don't know to this day what it

1223
01:00:21.760 --> 01:00:24.199
<v Speaker 3>was called, but it was like the same little apple pie.

1224
01:00:24.320 --> 01:00:27.079
<v Speaker 3>And then they have like this very delicacy that's like

1225
01:00:27.199 --> 01:00:30.679
<v Speaker 3>kind of bitter, kind of sweet, and it's bright purple. Like, Oh,

1226
01:00:31.039 --> 01:00:33.639
<v Speaker 3>I'm looking at the menu outside, you know, they have

1227
01:00:33.679 --> 01:00:35.840
<v Speaker 3>the pictures and I'm like, what is this apple pie

1228
01:00:35.840 --> 01:00:39.440
<v Speaker 3>with like it almost looks like, you know, purple like flubber,

1229
01:00:39.559 --> 01:00:43.559
<v Speaker 3>Like it's like looks almost radioactive. Yeah, I gotta try this,

1230
01:00:43.760 --> 01:00:44.719
<v Speaker 3>you know? I had?

1231
01:00:44.960 --> 01:00:45.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Yeah, you got.

1232
01:00:45.800 --> 01:00:48.199
<v Speaker 3>That's always one of my things. Whenever whatever country I

1233
01:00:48.239 --> 01:00:50.880
<v Speaker 3>travel to in the world, I always go to McDonald's.

1234
01:00:50.960 --> 01:00:53.440
<v Speaker 3>I always get one of their local items, you know,

1235
01:00:53.679 --> 01:00:57.559
<v Speaker 3>like whatever's specific to that region. Yeah, and I always

1236
01:00:57.599 --> 01:00:59.400
<v Speaker 3>get a big Mac because I have to see what

1237
01:00:59.440 --> 01:01:01.920
<v Speaker 3>the difference between every yeah mac is. Now.

1238
01:01:02.000 --> 01:01:04.960
<v Speaker 2>Is there a big difference country to country Big Mac?

1239
01:01:05.159 --> 01:01:08.800
<v Speaker 3>Yes, because every country has different like laws of what

1240
01:01:08.880 --> 01:01:10.960
<v Speaker 3>you can put in the food, what you can use

1241
01:01:11.000 --> 01:01:13.800
<v Speaker 3>as substitutes, blah blah blah. So they actually do taste

1242
01:01:13.880 --> 01:01:16.480
<v Speaker 3>vastly different, at least in my opinion as a big Mac.

1243
01:01:16.519 --> 01:01:20.760
<v Speaker 2>Connoissea different types of sawdust in the.

1244
01:01:21.840 --> 01:01:24.440
<v Speaker 3>Yes, yeah, sometimes it's oak tree, sometimes it's pine.

1245
01:01:24.559 --> 01:01:26.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. See I could see that.

1246
01:01:27.360 --> 01:01:29.000
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes delicious lead.

1247
01:01:29.559 --> 01:01:33.880
<v Speaker 2>Some paint chips, oh crazy.

1248
01:01:34.639 --> 01:01:36.559
<v Speaker 1>But in Japan, the first time I went to Japan,

1249
01:01:36.599 --> 01:01:39.920
<v Speaker 1>I went to McDonald's and their menu was completely different. Yes,

1250
01:01:40.719 --> 01:01:45.519
<v Speaker 1>not only are the ingredients sourced so clean in Japan,

1251
01:01:45.679 --> 01:01:48.599
<v Speaker 1>like every bit of food, even fast food is like gourmet,

1252
01:01:49.199 --> 01:01:52.559
<v Speaker 1>but they had such unique options for for their items,

1253
01:01:52.559 --> 01:01:54.079
<v Speaker 1>and I wanted to try them all. I didn't have

1254
01:01:54.119 --> 01:01:56.800
<v Speaker 1>time or the stomach, but man, it was good.

1255
01:01:56.880 --> 01:01:59.000
<v Speaker 3>Do you try. I was just in Tokyo last year

1256
01:01:59.159 --> 01:02:01.079
<v Speaker 3>and I had to try. I don't know if they

1257
01:02:01.119 --> 01:02:02.920
<v Speaker 3>had it when you were there, but it was the

1258
01:02:04.000 --> 01:02:06.760
<v Speaker 3>It was the egg McMuffin, but then they had a

1259
01:02:06.960 --> 01:02:10.679
<v Speaker 3>grilled mac and cheese patty in it as well, and

1260
01:02:10.719 --> 01:02:13.440
<v Speaker 3>then there was like a sweet jam spread over it.

1261
01:02:13.440 --> 01:02:15.760
<v Speaker 3>It was like a brownish jam, I don't know what fruit.

1262
01:02:16.079 --> 01:02:18.880
<v Speaker 3>And it was like the best big mac, I mean,

1263
01:02:19.000 --> 01:02:22.320
<v Speaker 3>not big mac, egg McMuffin I've ever had like that

1264
01:02:22.519 --> 01:02:25.159
<v Speaker 3>mac and cheese patty. Like they baked like mac and

1265
01:02:25.239 --> 01:02:27.480
<v Speaker 3>cheese and then they like squeezed it into a patty

1266
01:02:27.519 --> 01:02:29.000
<v Speaker 3>and like deep fried it and then put it on

1267
01:02:29.000 --> 01:02:31.360
<v Speaker 3>an egg McMuffin. Oh, it was so good. It was

1268
01:02:31.440 --> 01:02:31.920
<v Speaker 3>so good.

1269
01:02:32.159 --> 01:02:35.719
<v Speaker 1>They out America and America fry with that one.

1270
01:02:36.039 --> 01:02:37.400
<v Speaker 2>Anything you can deep fry.

1271
01:02:38.000 --> 01:02:39.480
<v Speaker 3>I think I had it every morning. I had it

1272
01:02:39.519 --> 01:02:41.079
<v Speaker 3>the first morning I was in Tokyo, and then I

1273
01:02:41.119 --> 01:02:43.280
<v Speaker 3>was like, yeah, is better than an egg McMuffin. I

1274
01:02:43.320 --> 01:02:44.519
<v Speaker 3>don't care what else is on the man and.

<v Speaker 3>off the plane is a big banner and there's Winnie

1309
01:04:21.760 --> 01:04:24.280
<v Speaker 3>the Pooh, there's Mickey, there's Tigger, and I took a picture.

<v Speaker 5>I was like, Jim, they love got you like a couple.

1311

01:04:29.760 --> 01:04:31.840
<v Speaker 3>embroidered on the back out there and like a nice

1313
01:04:31.880 --> 01:04:35.440
<v Speaker 3>little sweater. Yeah, incredible, loved it out there. Anyway, let's

1314
01:04:35.440 --> 01:04:39.559
<v Speaker 3>bring it back to it. Have you ever voiced any

1315
01:04:39.559 --> 01:04:41.760
<v Speaker 3>Disney voices? Have you worked with Disney at all?

1316
01:04:41.840 --> 01:04:45.599
<v Speaker 2>Disney? Let me think I need to think about that.

1317
01:04:45.719 --> 01:04:46.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

1318
01:04:46.119 --> 01:04:48.079
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I voiced the kid is coming back to me.

1319
01:04:48.599 --> 01:04:49.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, mostly Donald.

1320
01:04:50.360 --> 01:04:53.599
<v Speaker 1>That That was my intro into other than Yeah, other

1321
01:04:53.679 --> 01:04:57.400
<v Speaker 1>than that, mostly the side characters on the show, because

1322
01:04:57.400 --> 01:04:59.599
<v Speaker 1>when we go in, we do our main character and

1323
01:04:59.639 --> 01:05:02.480
<v Speaker 1>then a couple you know, side characters. That's part of

1324
01:05:02.519 --> 01:05:05.400
<v Speaker 1>the deal. And so it was an opportunity for me

1325
01:05:05.480 --> 01:05:09.360
<v Speaker 1>to enjoy being a utility player and show myself off

1326
01:05:09.400 --> 01:05:11.639
<v Speaker 1>a little bit. And so the more that I did,

1327
01:05:11.679 --> 01:05:13.599
<v Speaker 1>the more they said, Okay, well, get Daniel to do this,

1328
01:05:13.679 --> 01:05:17.960
<v Speaker 1>because normally it's you and Bill Farmer and Corey who

1329
01:05:18.039 --> 01:05:21.360
<v Speaker 1>would do the side characters Corey Burton so more and

1330
01:05:21.400 --> 01:05:23.000
<v Speaker 1>more they would bring me in for some of the

1331
01:05:23.000 --> 01:05:26.840
<v Speaker 1>side characters, and we did the Lonely Ghosts. There was

1332
01:05:26.880 --> 01:05:29.079
<v Speaker 1>an episode with the Lonely Ghosts and I got to

1333
01:05:29.079 --> 01:05:31.079
<v Speaker 1>play one of the ghosts, and that for me was like,

1334
01:05:31.159 --> 01:05:34.079
<v Speaker 1>oh my gosh, I'm tapping into that thing again where

1335
01:05:34.360 --> 01:05:36.960
<v Speaker 1>I get to do something so cool. But any day

1336
01:05:37.000 --> 01:05:39.400
<v Speaker 1>you get to work for Disney, it's a great day.

1337
01:05:39.800 --> 01:05:40.280
<v Speaker 3>I agree.

1338
01:05:40.400 --> 01:05:45.679
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, absolutely, Yeah. Nobody knows better than I. Very grateful,

01:05:48.840 --> 01:05:50.800

01:05:50.880 --> 01:05:51.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

1342
01:05:51.480 --> 01:05:55.159
<v Speaker 2>Well that goes without saying, oh no, wait, that wasn't

01:06:02.480 --> 01:06:05.159
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. Seeing that little Disney logo on the paycheck is

1346
01:06:05.159 --> 01:06:05.519
<v Speaker 3>so cool.

1347
01:06:05.599 --> 01:06:07.679
<v Speaker 2>Huh Yeah, I'm not going to complain.

1348
01:06:07.840 --> 01:06:10.079
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I worked on one TV show for Disney and

1349
01:06:10.199 --> 01:06:12.119
<v Speaker 3>that was like the coolest thing to me, was like

1350
01:06:12.199 --> 01:06:15.800
<v Speaker 3>seeing that little Disney logo on the check. This Disney,

1351
01:06:16.159 --> 01:06:19.159
<v Speaker 3>Yeah I got yeah, so cool.

1352
01:06:19.440 --> 01:06:22.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you know, Walt knew what he was doing. He

1353
01:06:22.239 --> 01:06:26.840
<v Speaker 2>sure did. Yeah, I mean he's like a true American icon,

1354
01:06:27.000 --> 01:06:31.400
<v Speaker 2>a pioneer of ever everything. Yeah, I mean, what an empire.

1355
01:06:31.599 --> 01:06:34.639
<v Speaker 2>And it all started with the mouse that was my

1356
01:06:34.719 --> 01:06:36.079
<v Speaker 2>bad Waltdasney.

1357
01:06:36.840 --> 01:06:38.159
<v Speaker 3>I have no idea what he sounded like.

1358
01:06:38.320 --> 01:06:41.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, well, I'm about to go visit his childhood home

1359
01:06:41.000 --> 01:06:43.519
<v Speaker 1>in Marsline. I have a con in Kansas City, so

1360
01:06:43.559 --> 01:06:46.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to take the drive Garceline next week. This

1361
01:06:47.039 --> 01:06:50.199
<v Speaker 1>next week Planet Comic Con is Worl'll be and so

1362
01:06:51.039 --> 01:06:53.079
<v Speaker 1>very excited to see that and just take it in

1363
01:06:53.159 --> 01:06:55.760
<v Speaker 1>and you know, thank the employees, you know, get to

1364
01:06:55.800 --> 01:06:58.039
<v Speaker 1>know them a little bit, because honestly, one of my

1365
01:06:58.039 --> 01:06:59.880
<v Speaker 1>favorite things when I go to the parks is getting

1366
01:06:59.920 --> 01:07:00.960
<v Speaker 1>to know the cast members.

1367
01:07:01.079 --> 01:07:03.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, because they're you know, I do my.

1368
01:07:03.199 --> 01:07:05.559
<v Speaker 1>Thing behind the scenes, we do our thing behind the scenes,

1369
01:07:05.599 --> 01:07:08.760
<v Speaker 1>but they're doing it every day. They're making those experiences

1370
01:07:08.760 --> 01:07:11.159
<v Speaker 1>for everybody, and I just think that's so special because

1371
01:07:11.440 --> 01:07:14.440
<v Speaker 1>you walk away, maybe you have the luxury of one

1372
01:07:14.480 --> 01:07:17.119
<v Speaker 1>Disney trip in your life and that's it. That those

1373
01:07:17.159 --> 01:07:19.079
<v Speaker 1>memories are going to stay with you for a lifetime

1374
01:07:19.159 --> 01:07:22.159
<v Speaker 1>for sure. And so I always handed to cast members

1375
01:07:22.280 --> 01:07:25.519
<v Speaker 1>and anytime these places I'm just so thankful that they're

1376
01:07:25.519 --> 01:07:28.159
<v Speaker 1>doing what they're doing and continuing that legacy that.

1377
01:07:28.119 --> 01:07:30.960
<v Speaker 2>Well, well me too. Yeah, you know, I this is

1378
01:07:31.079 --> 01:07:34.559
<v Speaker 2>years ago. I had occasion. It was it Disney something

1379
01:07:34.559 --> 01:07:37.920
<v Speaker 2>I won't say Land or World because I you know,

1380
01:07:38.159 --> 01:07:42.599
<v Speaker 2>the person was anyway, I was standing there talking getting

1381
01:07:42.639 --> 01:07:45.039
<v Speaker 2>my picture taken, and it was one of those things

1382
01:07:45.239 --> 01:07:47.440
<v Speaker 2>like a photo op where you stop there and there's

1383
01:07:47.480 --> 01:07:49.880
<v Speaker 2>a toadstool you can sit on and here's yeah, here's

1384
01:07:49.920 --> 01:07:52.519
<v Speaker 2>Pooh and here or a honeypot and there's Pooh and

1385
01:07:52.519 --> 01:07:56.800
<v Speaker 2>Tigger and they're both there, and I would dare say

1386
01:07:56.639 --> 01:08:00.199
<v Speaker 2>they all recognize me, you know, and they're jumping up

1387
01:08:00.239 --> 01:08:04.239
<v Speaker 2>and down there and they can't say anything. They can't

1388
01:08:04.320 --> 01:08:07.760
<v Speaker 2>say a word because it's completely taboo.

1389
01:08:07.840 --> 01:08:10.039
<v Speaker 3>It's like the best and the worst day of your life.

1390
01:08:10.159 --> 01:08:10.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I.

1391
01:08:12.360 --> 01:08:12.880
<v Speaker 3>Can't say.

1392
01:08:13.159 --> 01:08:15.639
<v Speaker 2>I know, they just can't say. They can't do a

1393
01:08:15.760 --> 01:08:19.000
<v Speaker 2>damn thing. And and so uh and I went up

1394
01:08:19.000 --> 01:08:23.039
<v Speaker 2>and I said, shall we take pictures together? You know,

1395
01:08:23.079 --> 01:08:25.159
<v Speaker 2>And they're shaking their heads up, they're about to lose

1396
01:08:25.199 --> 01:08:27.720
<v Speaker 2>their heads and uh and and so we did it,

1397
01:08:27.760 --> 01:08:30.520
<v Speaker 2>and you know, they're both all doing this, and I go,

1398
01:08:30.640 --> 01:08:32.840
<v Speaker 2>stop doing that. Looks at the palels of the character.

1399
01:08:32.920 --> 01:08:33.119
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

1400
01:08:33.399 --> 01:08:35.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. And the people in costume, Oh wait, there are

1401
01:08:35.880 --> 01:08:43.720
<v Speaker 2>people in costume. They work for Disney what but no

1402
01:08:44.560 --> 01:08:48.600
<v Speaker 2>magic a lot. I didn't mean it like that, but

1403
01:08:48.680 --> 01:08:51.680
<v Speaker 2>I yeah, no, no, it's just people in costume anyway.

1404
01:08:52.439 --> 01:08:55.920
<v Speaker 2>And they they I said, what's so nice to meet you?

1405
01:08:55.960 --> 01:08:58.880
<v Speaker 2>And they're all doing this this kind of mind bullshit

1406
01:08:59.000 --> 01:09:02.279
<v Speaker 2>and response, you know, and I go, it's okay. I mean,

1407
01:09:02.399 --> 01:09:05.159
<v Speaker 2>I know you're in there. It's okay. And the guy goes,

1408
01:09:05.359 --> 01:09:08.119
<v Speaker 2>anybody goes, we're not allowed to talk. I'm so happy

1409
01:09:08.199 --> 01:09:12.479
<v Speaker 2>right now. I can't even I'm gonna pee. Okay, Well,

1410
01:09:12.520 --> 01:09:15.640
<v Speaker 2>don't do that. Don't do that. We're gonna take some

1411
01:09:15.680 --> 01:09:18.960
<v Speaker 2>pictures here and just tell everybody that we chatted. I can't,

1412
01:09:19.159 --> 01:09:21.039
<v Speaker 2>all right, but then don't. Then I don't want to

1413
01:09:21.039 --> 01:09:23.920
<v Speaker 2>get you fired because you're doing a great job here.

1414
01:09:24.000 --> 01:09:25.479
<v Speaker 5>You don't want poop Pee in himself?

1415
01:09:25.600 --> 01:09:28.479
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, we don't want poop Pee in himself. No

1416
01:09:28.560 --> 01:09:30.800
<v Speaker 2>one that would that wouldn't. No one would like that

1417
01:09:30.960 --> 01:09:33.399
<v Speaker 2>pooh Pee is himself. That's ironic. And it was actually

1418
01:09:34.039 --> 01:09:36.520
<v Speaker 2>I think it was Tigger. But you know, we ended

1419
01:09:36.560 --> 01:09:39.039
<v Speaker 2>up taking a bunch of pictures together and and it

1420
01:09:39.079 --> 01:09:40.520
<v Speaker 2>was it was a lot of fun. Yeah.

1421
01:09:40.600 --> 01:09:44.319
<v Speaker 1>I brought my Emmy to Disney World, and oh good

1422
01:09:44.359 --> 01:09:46.279
<v Speaker 1>because I wanted to get some pictures with with the

1423
01:09:46.359 --> 01:09:50.439
<v Speaker 1>duck with the man cross and so, uh, you know,

1424
01:09:50.520 --> 01:09:54.119
<v Speaker 1>I brought it out with in costume. Yeah that that guy.

1425
01:09:54.560 --> 01:09:56.520
<v Speaker 1>I think it was actually Donald, but yeah, we'll go

1426
01:09:56.560 --> 01:10:00.119
<v Speaker 1>with that. And so uh, I brought that out and

1427
01:10:00.159 --> 01:10:03.159
<v Speaker 1>we took some pictures and video and Donald kept coming

1428
01:10:03.199 --> 01:10:06.760
<v Speaker 1>out like probably about three or four times, and excited

1429
01:10:06.800 --> 01:10:11.159
<v Speaker 1>every single time because you know, why not. I think

1430
01:10:11.199 --> 01:10:13.159
<v Speaker 1>I think it might have been other people jumping in yea.

1431
01:10:14.199 --> 01:10:16.479
<v Speaker 1>So and so that was just that that was so

1432
01:10:16.560 --> 01:10:19.800
<v Speaker 1>funny to me. But anytime I go to the parks,

1433
01:10:19.840 --> 01:10:21.600
<v Speaker 1>I love to meet with Donald. When it was his

1434
01:10:21.720 --> 01:10:26.720
<v Speaker 1>ninetieth birthday recently, I sang him Happy Birthday in the voice.

1435
01:10:27.359 --> 01:10:29.760
<v Speaker 1>That was one of the videos on TikTok that did

1436
01:10:29.760 --> 01:10:32.239
<v Speaker 1>pretty well. But anytime I go, I just get to

1437
01:10:32.279 --> 01:10:32.920
<v Speaker 1>say hi to the.

1438
01:10:32.880 --> 01:10:36.000
<v Speaker 2>Bus and it's nice.

1439
01:10:35.079 --> 01:10:37.680
<v Speaker 1>And I don't make myself inconspicuous. I wear a Donald

1440
01:10:37.760 --> 01:10:40.600
<v Speaker 1>shirt and I tell people, you know, hey, I'm here.

1441
01:10:40.840 --> 01:10:43.039
<v Speaker 1>If you want to come see me, please come say hi.

1442
01:10:43.239 --> 01:10:46.279
<v Speaker 1>That's cool, you know, like that's that means the world

1443
01:10:46.319 --> 01:10:48.479
<v Speaker 1>to me. If I can be there for somebody to

1444
01:10:48.479 --> 01:10:50.840
<v Speaker 1>do the voice and have that connection. I get it

1445
01:10:50.840 --> 01:10:53.039
<v Speaker 1>at conventions, but if I'm at the park, what better.

1446
01:10:52.800 --> 01:10:53.479
<v Speaker 2>Place to do it?

1447
01:10:53.760 --> 01:10:58.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah? Yeah, for sure, and everybody there's going to love that.

1448
01:10:58.319 --> 01:11:01.159
<v Speaker 2>I think I love it the most though. I really do.

1449
01:11:01.439 --> 01:11:04.119
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I do too, especially when you're in queue with

1450
01:11:04.199 --> 01:11:06.479
<v Speaker 1>somebody and they don't know who you are, but then

1451
01:11:06.520 --> 01:11:09.520
<v Speaker 1>somebody nudges them and says, hey, you know yeah yeah,

1452
01:11:09.560 --> 01:11:13.199
<v Speaker 1>and then and then they turn around, go my friend

01:11:13.279 --> 01:11:14.880

1517
01:14:33.520 --> 01:14:34.920
<v Speaker 3>Or do people ever come up to you and they

1518
01:14:34.920 --> 01:14:37.359
<v Speaker 3>have like a script and they're like, hey, you just like,

1519
01:14:38.880 --> 01:14:42.720
<v Speaker 3>you know, read this for me, and it's like, no,

1520
01:14:43.319 --> 01:14:44.640
<v Speaker 3>I'm not gonna read it right now.

1521
01:14:44.800 --> 01:14:48.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I get a cameo, like a three page cameo

1522
01:14:48.520 --> 01:14:51.359
<v Speaker 2>and then say as Pooh, and then say as Tigger,

1523
01:14:51.439 --> 01:14:53.119
<v Speaker 2>and then say and then I're going down the line

1524
01:14:53.119 --> 01:14:53.279
<v Speaker 2>and I.

1525
01:14:53.319 --> 01:14:57.800
<v Speaker 3>Go, uh no, yeah, there's like four hundred people behind you.

1526
01:14:58.319 --> 01:15:01.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, yeah, And there there are there are limits

1527
01:15:01.640 --> 01:15:03.680
<v Speaker 1>to what we can and can't do, you know in

1528
01:15:03.680 --> 01:15:06.520
<v Speaker 1>those circumstances, because we don't own those characters will and

1529
01:15:06.600 --> 01:15:09.000
<v Speaker 1>will not talk. We're not doing impressions where we can

1530
01:15:09.079 --> 01:15:11.159
<v Speaker 1>just kind of do anything. We have to be mindful

1531
01:15:11.239 --> 01:15:15.319
<v Speaker 1>of our overlords wherever they may be. And that's just

1532
01:15:15.399 --> 01:15:16.199
<v Speaker 1>kind of the way it is.

1533
01:15:16.399 --> 01:15:19.079
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's an odd thing. Can you do the can

1534
01:15:19.119 --> 01:15:22.279
<v Speaker 2>you one of my favorites? Can you do the noise

1535
01:15:22.319 --> 01:15:24.479
<v Speaker 2>of Winnie the Pooh. And I said, no, I can't

1536
01:15:24.520 --> 01:15:27.960
<v Speaker 2>do not the noise of winning, the noise of it's

1537
01:15:27.960 --> 01:15:31.640
<v Speaker 2>just him talking, but you know, do the noise of

1538
01:15:31.640 --> 01:15:34.159
<v Speaker 2>Winnie the Pooh. And and you know, the mom said,

1539
01:15:34.479 --> 01:15:39.760
<v Speaker 2>it just meets the boys. Yeah, oh, mother, Yeah you know, yeah,

1540
01:15:39.800 --> 01:15:42.479
<v Speaker 2>they don't don't bother. Yeah.

1541
01:15:42.680 --> 01:15:46.079
<v Speaker 1>No. My favorite is when usually in Transformers, because I

1542
01:15:46.199 --> 01:15:48.520
<v Speaker 1>voiced Starscream in two thousand and seven, one of my

1543
01:15:48.520 --> 01:15:50.880
<v Speaker 1>favorite characters and one of my favorite franchise rightly, so,

1544
01:15:51.199 --> 01:15:53.920
<v Speaker 1>oh my gosh, and and people will walk up and say,

1545
01:15:53.960 --> 01:15:56.680
<v Speaker 1>you did Starscream, right, and I say, yes, human, I

1546
01:15:56.840 --> 01:16:00.159
<v Speaker 1>did star Scream and they go, I liked Chris La

1547
01:16:00.640 --> 01:16:02.199
<v Speaker 1>and then they walk away and I'm.

1548
01:16:02.039 --> 01:16:03.520
<v Speaker 2>Like, I did too.

1549
01:16:04.960 --> 01:16:05.079
<v Speaker 1>Oh.

1550
01:16:05.560 --> 01:16:08.399
<v Speaker 2>At the end of the conversation, why was he the original? Yeah,

1551
01:16:08.399 --> 01:16:10.039
<v Speaker 2>he was the original. Yeah. I was here with him

1552
01:16:10.079 --> 01:16:12.479
<v Speaker 2>once a long time ago. He was amazing. Yeah, he

1553
01:16:12.560 --> 01:16:12.960
<v Speaker 2>really was.

1554
01:16:13.039 --> 01:16:15.239
<v Speaker 1>And I've come to the crazy I know his daughter Abby.

1555
01:16:15.800 --> 01:16:17.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I had.

1556
01:16:17.760 --> 01:16:20.359
<v Speaker 1>An amazing story. Actually, when I first got here, I

1557
01:16:20.399 --> 01:16:23.159
<v Speaker 1>was at jim I was at Rob Paulson's Talking Tunes,

1558
01:16:23.760 --> 01:16:25.439
<v Speaker 1>and it was when I were still doing it live,

1559
01:16:25.560 --> 01:16:29.000
<v Speaker 1>and so everybody was there just royalty across the board,

1560
01:16:29.079 --> 01:16:30.399
<v Speaker 1>and of course me, I'm.

1561
01:16:30.279 --> 01:16:34.520
<v Speaker 2>Like, oh my gosh, look at all these people, so starstruck.

1562
01:16:35.039 --> 01:16:36.720
<v Speaker 1>And at the end of it, I'm standing in a

1563
01:16:36.720 --> 01:16:38.760
<v Speaker 1>semicircle with a bunch of people and I'm telling this

1564
01:16:38.920 --> 01:16:43.640
<v Speaker 1>story about how I was invited to this little town

1565
01:16:43.800 --> 01:16:48.600
<v Speaker 1>in Sharon, Pennsylvania to sign some autographs for Transformers.

1566
01:16:49.039 --> 01:16:52.960
<v Speaker 2>And in Sharon, Pennsylvania, because Sharon is it was Sharon, Pennsylvania.

1567
01:16:53.039 --> 01:16:55.720
<v Speaker 2>There you go, and do you really Yeah, it's not

1568
01:16:55.760 --> 01:16:59.199
<v Speaker 2>far from the extown. Oh my gosh, that's right. How

1569
01:16:59.199 --> 01:16:59.640
<v Speaker 2>about that?

1570
01:17:00.760 --> 01:17:03.680
<v Speaker 1>They had a marching band waiting for me. They had

1571
01:17:03.720 --> 01:17:09.640
<v Speaker 1>it in the newspaper. I'm like, little old made Okay. Also,

1572
01:17:09.840 --> 01:17:12.880
<v Speaker 1>we signed the things and I go to this super fan,

1573
01:17:13.000 --> 01:17:16.960
<v Speaker 1>Mark's house. He had a Transformer's museum in his basement

1574
01:17:17.039 --> 01:17:19.479
<v Speaker 1>and it was incredible. And we're having dinner with his

1575
01:17:19.479 --> 01:17:21.319
<v Speaker 1>family and he's bringing some stuff out from me a

1576
01:17:21.399 --> 01:17:25.920
<v Speaker 1>sign and he brings out the vinyl album from the

1577
01:17:25.960 --> 01:17:30.720
<v Speaker 1>eighty six the Transformers the movie. Oh, signed by everybody,

1578
01:17:30.800 --> 01:17:33.760
<v Speaker 1>and I think, including you with a pen and he

1579
01:17:33.840 --> 01:17:35.159
<v Speaker 1>hands it to me and I went.

1580
01:17:35.000 --> 01:17:36.560
<v Speaker 3>Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

1581
01:17:37.319 --> 01:17:38.640
<v Speaker 2>I didn't work on that.

1582
01:17:38.640 --> 01:17:42.800
<v Speaker 1>That's this is sacrilege to me. And he said, I've

1583
01:17:42.800 --> 01:17:45.560
<v Speaker 1>never met anybody who's done the voice of starscreen before,

1584
01:17:45.600 --> 01:17:47.119
<v Speaker 1>and it would just mean the world to me if

1585
01:17:47.119 --> 01:17:49.000
<v Speaker 1>you would the character.

1586
01:17:49.279 --> 01:17:49.920
<v Speaker 2>Well, I thought.

1587
01:17:50.000 --> 01:17:52.000
<v Speaker 1>I thought about it for a minute because I'm like,

1588
01:17:52.159 --> 01:17:54.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm touching this thing that, to me as a collector,

1589
01:17:54.960 --> 01:17:58.760
<v Speaker 1>as a Transformers fan, is is just like a holy grail.

1590
01:17:59.439 --> 01:18:03.039
<v Speaker 1>And so I said, okay, I will sign it for Chris.

1591
01:18:03.800 --> 01:18:06.600
<v Speaker 1>For Chris, and I signed it and I did a

1592
01:18:06.600 --> 01:18:07.640
<v Speaker 1>big gulp goop.

1593
01:18:08.399 --> 01:18:09.159
<v Speaker 2>I can't believe I.

1594
01:18:09.119 --> 01:18:10.680
<v Speaker 1>Did that, but I handed it to him. And I'm

1595
01:18:10.680 --> 01:18:13.920
<v Speaker 1>telling this story outside of talking tunes and this girl

1596
01:18:13.960 --> 01:18:17.199
<v Speaker 1>across from me is starting to cry and I'm like why,

1597
01:18:17.319 --> 01:18:17.720
<v Speaker 1>and she.

1598
01:18:17.720 --> 01:18:21.800
<v Speaker 2>Said, Chris was my dad. Oh, look at that. Chris

1599
01:18:21.880 --> 01:18:24.720
<v Speaker 2>was my dad. And so became friends.

1600
01:18:25.279 --> 01:18:27.520
<v Speaker 1>We had a group together called the Green Giraffes Go

1601
01:18:27.560 --> 01:18:31.479
<v Speaker 1>Green Giraffes. We were just voiceover people that would meet

1602
01:18:31.520 --> 01:18:33.479
<v Speaker 1>every week just to go over copy and we do

1603
01:18:33.560 --> 01:18:36.319
<v Speaker 1>improv and stuff, and all of us have kind of

1604
01:18:36.640 --> 01:18:38.159
<v Speaker 1>gone off and done our own things.

1605
01:18:38.239 --> 01:18:39.800
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, she was a part of that too.

1606
01:18:39.880 --> 01:18:41.640
<v Speaker 5>We need to get Green Girafts back together.

1607
01:18:41.880 --> 01:18:43.399
<v Speaker 2>Yes, we do. Yes, we do.

01:20:19.760 --> 01:20:22.960
<v Speaker 2>and it was from other countries, and then some were

1637
01:20:23.000 --> 01:20:25.680
<v Speaker 2>from here, but they were only in business for like

1638
01:20:25.760 --> 01:20:32.079
<v Speaker 2>from nineteen twenty to nineteen twenty four, and these unbelievable cars.

1639
01:20:32.560 --> 01:20:36.000
<v Speaker 2>And I think one of them was had wood, wasn't it.

1640
01:20:36.119 --> 01:20:38.880
<v Speaker 5>I think like it had like the wood paneling.

1641
01:20:38.960 --> 01:20:43.239
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the wood paneling. Does Jay Leno own all of them? No,

<v Speaker 2>No he doesn't, but uh boy, he's yeah, he's got

01:20:47.119 --> 01:20:49.680
<v Speaker 2>he owns the ones out in Burbank Airport. Yeah.

1644
01:20:49.840 --> 01:20:49.880
<v Speaker 3>No.

1645
01:20:50.000 --> 01:20:51.439
<v Speaker 1>It was always wild when he would come out for

1646
01:20:51.520 --> 01:20:54.399
<v Speaker 1>sessions and he partnered Yeah, ridiculously large cars in that

1647
01:20:54.479 --> 01:20:55.159
<v Speaker 1>tiny thing.

1648
01:20:55.479 --> 01:20:55.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

1649
01:20:56.039 --> 01:20:58.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you know it's not my favorite car, you know

1650
01:20:58.560 --> 01:20:58.920
<v Speaker 1>what I mean?

1651
01:20:59.199 --> 01:21:01.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? Yeah, and it would bring it. And I remember

1652
01:21:01.840 --> 01:21:03.800
<v Speaker 2>I was helping him get out once and I go

1653
01:21:03.880 --> 01:21:06.920
<v Speaker 2>okay stop and he go no no, no, I got room. No,

1654
01:21:06.720 --> 01:21:09.079
<v Speaker 2>no no, no, you don't know because he took out

1655
01:21:09.119 --> 01:21:10.800
<v Speaker 2>the wood panal. Yes, that's when he took out the

1656
01:21:10.800 --> 01:21:12.199
<v Speaker 2>wood penel. He did it right in front of me.

1657
01:21:12.239 --> 01:21:15.119
<v Speaker 2>I go, I told you to stop. He goes, It's

1658
01:21:15.159 --> 01:21:20.199
<v Speaker 2>just a slide they can put and okay, yeah, well

1659
01:21:20.239 --> 01:21:20.840
<v Speaker 2>that's what I want.

1660
01:21:20.960 --> 01:21:24.760
<v Speaker 3>I was going to say, Man, did you know he's

1661
01:21:24.800 --> 01:21:27.520
<v Speaker 3>never had an agent in his whole career? What he's

1662
01:21:27.600 --> 01:21:28.399
<v Speaker 3>never had an agent.

1663
01:21:28.800 --> 01:21:31.439
<v Speaker 1>I think that's why he only wears blue jeans, probably

1664
01:21:31.520 --> 01:21:32.920
<v Speaker 1>blue jean shirts and blue jeans.

1665
01:21:33.560 --> 01:21:35.800
<v Speaker 3>But yeah, I did this game show. I was contestant

1666
01:21:35.800 --> 01:21:38.399
<v Speaker 3>on a game show that he was hosting, and just

1667
01:21:38.439 --> 01:21:40.399
<v Speaker 3>like in the breaks, it was during COVID, so there

1668
01:21:40.439 --> 01:21:42.399
<v Speaker 3>was like twelve of us. So we got like actually

1669
01:21:42.479 --> 01:21:44.840
<v Speaker 3>like interpersonal time with him for like three hours. It

1670
01:21:44.880 --> 01:21:48.239
<v Speaker 3>was pretty cool and he was like yeah. Somebody asked him,

1671
01:21:48.279 --> 01:21:50.560
<v Speaker 3>you know, like how did you, you know, break into

1672
01:21:50.600 --> 01:21:53.359
<v Speaker 3>the industry, and I forget the specifics, but he was like, yeah,

1673
01:21:53.359 --> 01:21:55.640
<v Speaker 3>I booked this and then I never even bothered getting

1674
01:21:55.640 --> 01:22:00.279
<v Speaker 3>an agent. I just kept getting work. What you don't

1675
01:22:00.279 --> 01:22:01.399
<v Speaker 3>even realize.

1676
01:22:02.600 --> 01:22:02.960
<v Speaker 2>Cars?

1677
01:22:03.079 --> 01:22:05.840
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, yeah, his ten percent is his car collection.

1678
01:22:06.640 --> 01:22:10.399
<v Speaker 2>Wow, boy, that is insane and to this day, I mean.

1679
01:22:10.520 --> 01:22:13.279
<v Speaker 3>To this day. That was only what four or five

1680
01:22:13.359 --> 01:22:13.800
<v Speaker 3>years ago?

1681
01:22:14.279 --> 01:22:14.600
<v Speaker 2>Wow?

1682
01:22:14.880 --> 01:22:16.439
<v Speaker 5>Yeah shit.

1683
01:22:17.479 --> 01:22:20.960
<v Speaker 3>But anyway, without further ado, shall we get into these

1684
01:22:21.039 --> 01:22:24.000
<v Speaker 3>voice swaps. I was thinking, since you guys have characters

1685
01:22:24.000 --> 01:22:26.680
<v Speaker 3>that interact so frequently, maybe we could switch this up

1686
01:22:26.720 --> 01:22:28.880
<v Speaker 3>a little bit and have like a little conversation, like

1687
01:22:28.920 --> 01:22:31.640
<v Speaker 3>a little back and forth between Pete and Donald. What

1688
01:22:31.680 --> 01:22:32.600
<v Speaker 3>do you guys think about that?

1689
01:22:33.520 --> 01:22:40.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but the questions who's doing Pete? Yes, Donald and Pete.

1690
01:22:40.239 --> 01:22:42.359
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, let's do a little like a conversation rather than

1691
01:22:42.359 --> 01:22:43.319
<v Speaker 3>a voice swap, like a.

1692
01:22:43.239 --> 01:22:44.119
<v Speaker 2>Little here you go.

1693
01:22:44.279 --> 01:22:48.720
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, well, you know, quackers, It's like I was saying

1694
01:22:48.920 --> 01:22:53.760
<v Speaker 6>just the other day, what the heck are you saying?

1695
01:22:53.399 --> 01:23:04.079
<v Speaker 2>So what's somethime? Well, that hears it up wrong? So

1696
01:23:04.159 --> 01:23:19.159
<v Speaker 2>you said, would you be taking book? No? That was

1697
01:23:19.479 --> 01:23:24.640
<v Speaker 2>that was painful. That was good. And uh so let's

1698
01:23:24.680 --> 01:23:26.680
