about is my movie quote bathroom. So I have a
bathroom where there's pens all over the place, and when
anybody who uses it, you write up your favorite movie
quote on the wall. So the whole bathroom is just
full of random fantastic. Yeah, it is a ton of fun.
And as we were talking, I'm wasting time because I'm

picture that you and I took together, Gary, because I
found it.

Speaker 4 (03:37):
And see what this will?

Speaker 1 (03:38):

Face recognition, But there's too many famous faces recognition on
an iPhone. It can I actually locate people that frequent
your photo stream and it will tell you.

Speaker 1 (03:50):
That it sounds like that's super difficult to try to
figure out how to do any of that stuff. You
I was introduced you and I got introduced, I think
originally through Mitchell feel where I think I want to
say one of the first Now we might have worked
together back in the day on either Batman or Justice League,

Speaker 4 (07:21):
What were we talking about.

Speaker 1 (07:24):
It?

Speaker 2 (07:24):
We're talking about Haley's On It, which, by the way,
I feel like I gotta say this. It reminds me
a little bit of Kim Possible. I don't know if
that if you know of Kim Possible, but she saved
the world.

Speaker 4 (07:34):
I do.

Speaker 5 (07:34):
I do know of Kim Possible. Let me let me
just say this about this, Hailey's on It. So since
the great Plague hit us, I've been recording everything at
home in this week and so, and I've been doing
Haley's On It now for a while recording and I
just for the first time last week got to see

(07:55):
an episode and I literally said out loud, I didn't
know this was this good.

Speaker 4 (08:01):
So in Paris, it was so fun to watch. It's like, oh,
they made me look so cool. Oh listen to the
great music.

Speaker 5 (08:09):
So for all of those people who don't know and
Christian will I know you guys know everything.

Speaker 4 (08:14):
This isn't for you, guys. This is for the people
listening to you. Guys. You know everything.

Speaker 1 (08:20):
There's nothing I do not know.

Speaker 5 (08:22):
You taught me how to jump start my Chesla with
a bobby pin and a stick of bubble downs.

Speaker 1 (08:27):
And I appreciate that it's super easy.

Speaker 5 (08:29):
Uh So, Haley's on It is about a little girl
speaking to her impossible who's going to save the world.
She's this thirteen year old girl. She started writing down
list of things that she wanted to someday do. Most
stuff was like stuff she was kind of scared of,
like I want to ride every ride at the theme
park because she was like afraid of him, like this
list of things she wanted to do. And it turns

(08:50):
out her checking off this list in the future saves
the universe, saves the whole world. So someone from the
future come to go, Haley, you got to make sure
you check this list off. President Serena Williams has credited
you with saving saving the world. So now she's got
to go and check off all those things on her list.

Speaker 4 (09:12):
I guess.

Speaker 5 (09:13):
In short, the show's kind of about facing your fears
or conquering your fears. Actually, but yeah, she that's who
she is. I played Beta. Who's this This most intelligent
AI in the universe who.

Speaker 4 (09:28):
Comes of us? Is typecasting?

Speaker 1 (09:30):
Typecasting.

Speaker 4 (09:32):
Here's what they did.

Speaker 5 (09:32):
First of all, before I even audition, they were like,
we need you to take an intelligence test.

Speaker 4 (09:38):
I scored higher.

Speaker 5 (09:39):
Than anyone, anyone in my house, not anyone in my house,
anyone knows who's in the room of my house.

Speaker 4 (09:49):
And I took it. Uh, and so I got said
it was just a box. I scored higher than the
box and I got the job. That's awesome. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (10:01):
So I'm this smart little AI that used to be
like a smartphone, and now she's put him in the
body of this cute, little cuddly teddy bear, which he
hates because he is just a.

Speaker 4 (10:11):
Grumpy He's a grumpy, very.

Speaker 5 (10:13):
Smart, artificial intelligent being doesn't think much about humans at all,
except he does have a soft spot for Haley, and
his job is basically keep her on tasks, keep her
on the list, tell her what the most optimal list
item she needs to check off.

Speaker 1 (10:30):
Isn't that sounds like a great show.

Speaker 5 (10:32):
It really is fun and the music so fun. Okay,
like so fun and like self aware of Like one
thing on her list is she's supposed to kiss her
best buddy Scott. At the time she wrote this, she's like, Oh,
he's kind of cute. I'm going to kiss that guy someday.
Now they're best friends and she's still like.

Speaker 4 (10:50):
He's kind of cute, but he's also my best friend.

Speaker 5 (10:53):
Yeah friend zone, yeah exactly, So she doesn't really want
to kiss him, but she kind of does so. In
one of the episodes, the first episode, actually, uh, she's
riding every ride at the fair and she goes through
this tunnel of love and this beautiful song starts playing
Christy about go ahead and kiss your best friend, like

(11:13):
it's so d yeah.

Speaker 4 (11:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (11:19):
Yeah. Just characters, just characters, just our characters.

Speaker 5 (11:24):
I'm not here to do. Guess what I'm not here
to do is judge you two. I'm not going to
do that.

Speaker 1 (11:29):
You know, it's funny that you mentioned that, because actually
that's exactly why you're here. You're our guests judge for
the contest this week.

Speaker 2 (11:35):
We have to get candidates. Right now, we have two contestants.

Speaker 1 (11:38):
You're actually here to judge that's the point I.

Speaker 4 (11:42):
Had the judges. I have a judge's robe in my closet.
I could have easily.

Speaker 5 (11:46):
I never know when I'm gonna have to walk around
judging others. I just didn't expect to judge you two today.

Speaker 1 (11:51):
Well, no, you don't to judge us, but you are
going to judge help us judge our two contestants for
the day. So yes.

Speaker 4 (11:57):
So here's what.

Speaker 1 (11:57):
We're doing, Gary. We started something one of called the
Super Awesome Contest to become the next Big Voice actor.
And we have we blanketed the United States and ended
up with over forty five hundred entries.

Speaker 4 (12:09):
Wow, okay, and we brought it.

Speaker 1 (12:11):
Down to the Sweet sixteen and we are now picking
our final four. W It is a ton of fun,
but it is very very difficult. We uh the the winner.
So everybody out there who has been following the contest,
of course knows this already. But the winner gets flown
out to Los Angeles. They are having lunch with Christy
and I. They get a thousand dollars spending money. They

(12:33):
get a half an hour to an hour long training
session with directors Sam Regal and or Mary McGlynn over
there at.

Speaker 5 (12:42):
Critical role suck at all.

Speaker 1 (12:46):
And the biggest prize of all they sign with CEESD,
my voiceover agency for a year, so they win a contract.

Speaker 4 (12:56):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (12:57):
And we had people from all over the country enter
and we've had a ton of fun and we'd like
you to help us this week. Unfortunately, it is so
wonderful and so awful because everybody that's left is so
incredibly talented they could all be signed. The first game
that we played was called by the Numbers, where we

(13:19):
had dialogue for them, but the adjudicator, the guest judge,
by picking random numbers, would actually pick their character, which
was created on the spot. So hey, you were a
six year old flower that's in the middle of an
allergic reaction. And that's how they got to the next round.
We brought them down to our eight. Now our eight
are becoming the final four and we are playing a

(13:39):
game today that we call Extra Extra Read all about
it and as we have said every we're looking for
a fully well rounded voice actor, and voice acting is
not just animation, it is also ad reads absolutely, so
we are going to be concentrating on ad reads today
and our two intestines who have made it this far

(14:02):
again now from forty five hundred.

Speaker 2 (14:04):
See where this has now?

Speaker 4 (14:05):
Right?

Speaker 3 (14:05):
Why?

Speaker 1 (14:05):
Yeah, we have Haley from Texas and we have Eileen
from North Carolina. Okay, so I think was Haley first
in the.

Speaker 4 (14:16):
Am I going to actually meet these people? Are just
listening to.

Speaker 1 (14:19):
Know they're they're going to be popping on right now
and they're going to go ahead to hell.

Speaker 5 (14:23):
I really wish I had known this. I would have
gotten out my judges.

Speaker 1 (14:37):
Okay, So I think Eileen from North Carolina was first.
So if we could bring Eileen in very quickly, we're
going to Hileen as she there are no men left
in the contest, by the way, the women have been
killing it.

Speaker 5 (14:51):
So everybody destroyed, which is destroyed. Let's just be honest.
That's what should have happened a long time ago. Politically,
we would be in a much better place if we
got rid of all these men and women run things.

Speaker 2 (15:02):
I'm not going to say it, but okay, you said it.

Speaker 4 (15:07):
We all know this. That's given.

Speaker 1 (15:09):
The talent has been amazing. The talent has been amazing, frankly,
but now it's getting so difficult because everybody there's.

Speaker 2 (15:15):
Going to be a very interesting episode.

Speaker 5 (15:17):
So here we go let's pronounced Eileen is h a
y l an he, but it's pronounced Eileen, it is.

Speaker 3 (15:24):
It's in Spanish.

Speaker 4 (15:32):
English all right.

Speaker 5 (15:37):
Well, by the way, will Christy, I forgot to tell
you guys, I speak every language.

Speaker 1 (15:43):
That's impressive.

Speaker 2 (15:44):
I would only think that the AI all knowing.

Speaker 1 (15:49):
Speak every language.

Speaker 5 (15:51):
Eileen Rod all right, this is exciting. First of all,
nice to meet you.

Speaker 2 (15:55):
It's a pleasure.

Speaker 5 (15:57):
And those people that they have the contest when is
set up with those are some solid folks that you
would get a chance to me. But obviously, if you've
made it this far, you already are good.

Speaker 4 (16:09):
So let's just that's what we say.

Speaker 6 (16:10):
Yo.

Speaker 1 (16:11):
Everybody left could easily be signed, but we're looking for
the colleague to jump in with us to the booth.

box in the corner for when I'm like actually recording stuff.

Speaker 1 (17:06):
Oh, this is this is getting harder because I know
all the faces now everybody.

Speaker 2 (17:10):
I know, you really do know all the everybody? Now
would it helped to cover up my face?

Speaker 1 (17:17):
Wouldn't?

Speaker 7 (17:18):
I tried?

Speaker 1 (17:20):
This is Gary? Hey, Gary, Anthony Williams is our guest
judge for the week. He's the voice of most of
the stuff you watch.

Speaker 2 (17:28):
Brilliant That no pressure, Hey, I'm.

Speaker 5 (17:33):
One of those people who believe that everybody good should
be in voiceover. So there's no pressure from me. You've
already won, clearly. And if I were you, I would
just drive to la and push people out of the
way of the microphone and start talking in it.

Speaker 1 (17:47):
Brilliant. I actually already am.

Speaker 7 (17:49):
I'm moving to l A next month anyway.

Speaker 4 (17:51):

Speaker 5 (18:00):
We'll go you hush your voiceover hole right now, get
that free stuff first, and then tell them me you're
moving anyway.

Speaker 1 (18:10):
We don't.

Speaker 4 (18:10):
We don't.

Speaker 2 (18:10):
I will tell you though. We're a very legal like
uh contest. That's not one of the disqualifications. We'll get
a free ticket.

Speaker 1 (18:19):

(18:42):
read all about it. Thank you so much, Haley.

Speaker 4 (18:45):
Thank your voiceover liquids before. I don't know what that means.
That doesn't mean anything. I'm sorry.

Speaker 3 (18:50):
I just.

Speaker 2 (18:55):
I guess listen to me, just listen.

Speaker 4 (18:59):
I don't know, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (19:01):
Whatever.

Speaker 1 (19:01):
It takes, good advice whatever. All right, Haley, we'll see
you in a second. Yeah, all right, here we go.
We are once again back into the super awesome contest
to become the next big voice actor. And if we
could please bring Eileen from North Carolina back here. She
is all right, So here we go. We are going
to be starting with line number one we sent you,

(19:22):
and again we are not going to say anything. We're
not going to get in your head. We're just going
to see what you do with line number one and
then we'll give you some notes afterwards. So if you
would please line number one at your pleasure.

Speaker 3 (19:32):
Reading nowadays is so complicated, smartphones, smart TVs, smart watches.
I can't keep up. I miss the days when things
were dumb. Why can't I have a dumb phone?

Speaker 2 (19:42):
Why can I watch?

Speaker 3 (19:43):
Just tell time?

Speaker 2 (19:44):
Would that be so bad?

Speaker 3 (19:46):
I just want to take a deep breath and get
back to simplicity. That's why when I need to write
something down, I reach for a good old fashioned number
two pencil. And not just any number two, but a
doer's number two. Doer's pencils. They work just fine and
have for over one hundred years. Now. That's a smart pencil.

Speaker 1 (20:04):
Thank you so much, Gary, any notes.

Speaker 4 (20:06):
First of all, I gotta go buy that pencil, thank you. Good.

Speaker 5 (20:11):
I don't have the copy in front of me, but
I actually do want that. That that the right before
the doer's pencils. I just want to buildboard the product
just a little bit more.

Speaker 3 (20:22):
Okay.

Speaker 5 (20:23):
I reached for what was that line about, I reached
for something, reach for.

Speaker 1 (20:29):
A good old fashion Yeah, we're good old fashion number
two pencils.

Speaker 3 (20:32):
Okay.

Speaker 5 (20:34):
And also like, make sure make sure we hit that too,
because that's a that's a trick of the brain of
what people think you're going to be talking about. So
play that up for me a little bit, and then
play up that product name a little bit, and just
for me, will I would I would just slow this
piece down just a little bit.

Speaker 2 (20:51):
Okay, Christy, I really liked it. I agree, I think
you should slow it down a little bit. Or maybe
I think the word that I would be looking for
as intentional. So I think that it was not monotone,
that's for sure, but it was almost like it was
one very lighthearted emotion. I think like you could give

(21:13):
it a little bit more personality. That would be my
nope overall, Okay, I can't expand on that. I can't
expand on this.

Speaker 5 (21:23):
And by the way, by the way, you're getting a
lot from two different people that I should I should
have just started out as saying I really did.

Speaker 4 (21:30):
Like that read.

Speaker 1 (21:31):
Yeah, by the way, thank you.

Speaker 5 (21:32):
I should have just started that out. But like if
I'm going, hey, what do I want more out of that?

Speaker 4 (21:36):
Right now? That's that's what I wanted.

Speaker 3 (21:39):
So I guess my question is Wait, I'm sorry I
didn't catch the guest's name.

Speaker 4 (21:43):
I'm Gary, Gary Anthony Williams.

Speaker 2 (21:45):
I'm very handsome, speak Spanish, he speaks who languages. Doing great.

Speaker 3 (21:53):
But when you said I reached for a good old
fashion number two pencil, are you saying like, be intentional
with the beats or like old fashion a little bit more?

Speaker 4 (22:04):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (22:04):
But yes, and yes, personally, I don't know Will feels
or Gary.

Speaker 5 (22:07):
Yeah, go ahead, because the audience has no idea you're
about to talk about.

Speaker 4 (22:12):
You're about to sell.

Speaker 5 (22:12):
Them a pencil right now exactly. So that's what we
want to go back to. Like you could be saying
I reach for a good old fashioned shotgun, whatever it is.
The audience has no idea of what you're about to
sell them right now, So that's the first time they're
going to go, wait.

Speaker 4 (22:27):
What what do we Oh? Oh wow, okay, we're listening
to pencils right now.

Speaker 2 (22:32):
And you know, Eileen, I think the fix for that,
rather than you're making like a lot more like sort
of personality choices and putting more like sort of like
funness about it, right, I guess is the word I
would say. But like I think if you almost let
the words feel really like like garys saying like new
but almost like juicier, Like you're pronouncing them in a

(22:53):
way that's not necessarily over articulated. But it's like this
old fashioned pencil. See, there's like an hear an interest
in the words to like inform people of what you're doing.
So that's just my Yes, I think I spoke too much.

Speaker 5 (23:09):
And I can let me let me just say this
last thing, and this is not a note. If I
was doing commercial right now and I was getting this
much input all at once from everybody, I'm gonna tell
them to shut up and one person talks. If I
was getting this much input all at once, I would
really be.

Speaker 4 (23:28):
Like boomhead just exploded.

Speaker 5 (23:33):
So don't feel like weirdough if you can't hit every
one of our notes.

Speaker 4 (23:36):
In this in this next read.

Speaker 1 (23:39):
Okay, I always keep it very very simple, and I
would just say slow it down a little bit.

Speaker 5 (23:43):
I think that slow it down is definitely. I think
we all three agree on that note. So if you
want to take that, that's your biggest one. If you
won't take your biggest one.

Speaker 1 (23:54):
For sure, okay, all right, so yeah, just give it
another try, you know, with with all that in your
head now and see where you go from there.

Speaker 4 (24:03):
All right?

Speaker 1 (24:03):
Anytime?

Speaker 3 (24:05):
Everything nowadays is so complicated, smartphones, smart TVs, smart watches.
I can't keep up. I miss the days when things
were dumb. Why can't I have a dumb phone? Why
can't I watch? Just tell time? Would that be so bad?
I just want to take a breath and get back
to simplicity. That's why when I need to write something down,
I reach for a good old fashioned number two pencil,

(24:28):
and not just any number two, but a doer's number two.
Doer's pencils they work just fine and half for over
one hundred years. Now that's a smart pencil.

Speaker 1 (24:40):
Thank you so much, and we will be right back
with you. Appreciate it.

Speaker 4 (24:43):
Thank you, Eileen.

Speaker 1 (24:47):
I thought it was good.

Speaker 5 (24:47):
She.

Speaker 1 (24:48):
I thought took the note to slow it down a
little bit. I think she can maybe find some more
peaks and valleys, but overall she's got a great tamber
and I like the acting's there, so that's always good.

Speaker 5 (24:58):
When she's been reading stuff in the guys in the past,
is does she ever do any older stuff? She always
keeps in in that age.

Speaker 1 (25:05):
She We did bring her through some of the older stuff,
but she's definitely more comfortable in the younger inte and
some of the younger stuff she was doing is great.
Was yeah, really good.

Speaker 4 (25:15):
I can hear that absolutely.

Speaker 1 (25:16):
All right, Well, let's bring uh bring back contestant number two.
We were bringing back Haley from Texas. All right, So
we got line number one there, and we're not gonna
say anything, and we're just gonna let you take line
number one and see where you go, and then we
will throw away too many notes at you.

Speaker 4 (25:33):
So love that?

Speaker 7 (25:35):
All about that here, line number one, at your pleasure.
Everything nowadays is so complicated. Smartphones, smart TV, smart watches.
I can't keep up. I miss the days when things
were dumb. Why can't I have a dumb phone? Why
can't I my watch just tell time? Would that be
so bad? I just want to take a breath and

(25:57):
get back to simplicity. That's why when I need to
write something down, I reach for a good old fashioned
number two pencil and not just any number two, but
at Doers number two Doers pencils. They work just fine
and have for over one hundred years. Now, that's a
smart pencil.

Speaker 5 (26:18):
Gary, nice, this is going to be weird what I'm
going to ask you for because that was a super
nice read.

Speaker 4 (26:25):
And tell me, guys, if I'm stepping out.

Speaker 5 (26:28):
I'm curious as to what she would sound a little
bit older that read, just because she's talking about going
back to simpler times. I'm just curious with your voice,
what it would sound like if you age your up
a little bit. But no, but I mean, that was
a super nice read. I'm just really curious to hear Christy.

Speaker 2 (26:46):
Yeah, that's I agree with him. I agree with Gary.
I'm not going to give you anyone else. Listen to
what Gary is saying on that.

Speaker 1 (26:54):
Okay, great, Yeah, yeah, I'd like to hear it like
that too. I thought really interesting choices. I like them
quite a bit. I felt like you were talking to me,
which I liked. So yeah, let's try one just yeah,
age for maybe yeah again, Yeah, let's see.

Speaker 7 (27:11):
Let's see what happens to students or something, gen Z
students gotcha.

Speaker 1 (27:17):
Exactly anytime You're ready, Hally, at your pleasure.

Speaker 7 (27:22):
Everything nowadays is so complicated, smartphones, smart TV, smart watches.
I can't keep up. I miss the days when things
were dumb. Why can't I have a dumb phone? Why
can't my watch just tell the time?

Speaker 1 (27:39):
Would that be so bad?

Speaker 7 (27:42):
I just want to take a breath and get back
to simplicity. That's why when I need to write something down,
I reach for a good old fashioned number two pencil,
and not just any number two, but a Doers number two.
Doers pencils. They work just fine and have for over
one hundred years. Now that's a smart pencil. And that's

(28:06):
my cat deciding to say hello, I didn't hear it.

Speaker 1 (28:16):
Good was literally right next to me.

Speaker 4 (28:19):
Oh no, we couldn't hear it. You were good.

Speaker 1 (28:21):
Sorry, and we will be with you. We'll be back
with you for line number two. Thanks, all right. So
we like to do a brief overview right when we
finished the different rounds, and unfortunately we're very frank because
we're trying to get to where we're where we're getting to.
I thought Haley won that round. Frankly, that's my personal opinion.

(28:43):
I thought Eileen was great, but kind of I don't know.
I thought the choices that Haley made and the acting
was just a little bit better. That's my personal opinion.

Speaker 4 (28:55):
Gary.

Speaker 5 (28:57):
I'm a little torn between because I could see I
uh and you guys have heard both of them before,
but I could see.

Speaker 4 (29:07):
II Leen doing a lot of younger work.

Speaker 5 (29:09):
Absolutely voice, her voice is very inviting on the younger tip.

Speaker 1 (29:13):
She's also good too when she was when she was
playing with different characters the first the first round.

Speaker 5 (29:19):
I can hear it in her voice, and there's some timing.
There's some good timing in her voice. So I'm kind
of at a toss up just because she we only
had to do that one way with sure instruction, so
I kind of lean back on what you guys have
heard them both do as well.

Speaker 1 (29:38):
But toss up is good. I mean again, we we
if I if I say Haley won that round, I
mean barely. But I would say taking the direction that
she did, deepening her voice a little bit, she showed
a little more range in that first round. That could
also be on us because we didn't ask Eileen to
show us any more range in her voice, But that's

(29:59):
what that would be what I would say, Christy.

Speaker 2 (30:02):
I agree with you. I think that I really truly
think that Haley won that one.

Speaker 4 (30:07):
Okay, all right, well, let's what happens now.

Speaker 1 (30:10):
Now we go to Now we go to line number two.
We do it all over again.

Speaker 2 (30:14):
Don't worry. We have another round and.

Speaker 1 (30:16):
Then after and then after round two. What we do
is they've been prepared with lines number one and lines
number two, and then we throw a third line at
them that they have to read cold.

Speaker 4 (30:24):
Oh this is fun.

Speaker 1 (30:25):
So we are going to round number two now, and
you know what, why don't we bring Haley back in first?
So we are switching it up, and it's not we
are listening to different people at different times. I think
that'd be the better way to do it. Great, so
we will bring Haley back. Hello, Haley, Oho, we would
like you now, and we will stay out of your
head for the first first run through. If you could

(30:47):
just give us line number two at your pleasure, that
would be great.

Speaker 7 (30:52):
That's a couch. I want to know how I can
tell because I can see it. Oh great, rug, I
want to know how I can tell because I can
see it. You can spend all the money in the
world on your furniture, but if you can't see it,
who cares. That's where Flurman's Lamps comes in. With over
thirty thousand square feet of store space, Flurman's has everything

(31:15):
you could possibly want for all your lamp and illumination needs,

Pennsylvania area.

Speaker 5 (31:47):
I have a new number two pencil. I got to
hurry up and get.

Speaker 4 (31:50):
Out of it hopefully.

Speaker 8 (31:55):
Perfect.

Speaker 2 (31:56):
You can write down which lamps you want with your.

Speaker 1 (32:01):
All right, Gary, do you have any notes?

Speaker 4 (32:03):
I don't really have any notes.

Speaker 5 (32:05):
Like literally, my note would be, hey, do me another
read a different way that you want to do it? Like,
I don't really have any notes on that read honestly,
So Christy, I agree.

Speaker 2 (32:16):
I think Hayley is a solid you know. I think
she's solid, and I think that that would hold up
as a booking, you know. I just think it would
be if she wanted to do it again just for
fun and make some bold choices that would be kind
of cool.

Speaker 4 (32:30):
Yeah, I would just say that.

Speaker 5 (32:32):
I would say like, oh, we got what we need,
Like what you want to do something with it? That's
what I would say if I were producing that.

Speaker 1 (32:38):
I'm not even going to add to that. Let's just
hear your take too and see what happens something at
your pleasure, whatever you want to do. That's a couch.

Speaker 7 (32:47):
I want to know how I can tell because I
can see it? Oh great, rug, you want to know
how I can tell because I can see it. You

three lines.

Speaker 4 (33:30):
Can you do one?

Speaker 5 (33:31):
Just totally dead almost like like literally just a dead
pan kind.

Speaker 4 (33:36):
Of do you know what I'm talking? About almost like
what was.

Speaker 5 (33:39):
That guy's name as way back in the day. Yeah,
just like it does not need to be the whole thing.
I'm just curious about something.

Speaker 6 (33:46):
Okay, and Stein, Oh my god, yeah didn't he didn't
he have like a kid's game show on Yeah, an
adult when Benstein's Benstein's money.

I watched it.

Speaker 4 (34:03):
Yes, just just the line. I'm curious.

Speaker 7 (34:09):
That's a couch. I want to know how I can
tell because I can see it. Great, rug, I want
to know how I can tell because I can see it.
You can spend all the money in the world on

really really well.

I wanted to do that.

Speaker 1 (34:38):
Yeah, yeah, okay, let's bring Eileen in, Hileen. So, Eileen,
if you could do it's a favor. We will stay
out of your head. Just let you do whatever you
want and take a swing at line number two please
at your pleasure.

Speaker 3 (34:54):
That's a couch.

Speaker 2 (34:55):
I want to know how I can tell because I
can see it.

Speaker 3 (34:58):
Great, rug want to know how I I can tell
because I can see it.

Speaker 1 (35:02):
You can spend all the.

Speaker 3 (35:03):
Money in the world on your furniture, but if you
can't see it, who cares. That's where Foreman's Lamps come in.
With over thirty thousand square feet of store space, Flormance
has everything you could possibly want for all your lamp
and an illumination needs. Because if you can't see it,
then who cares that you have it? Foreman's with eleven
convenient locations in the Pennsylvania area.

Speaker 1 (35:25):
Thank you very much.

Speaker 4 (35:26):
Gary.

Speaker 5 (35:27):
Yeah, I would give almost the same note I gave
you on that last time, which is just slow it,
slow it down some and if you could make her
a couple of years older for me, that would that
would even that would even help you slow it down.
If you think you got that in you, just age
your up a little bit and slow it down a
little bit for me.

Speaker 4 (35:44):
That's all I have to say about that.

Speaker 2 (35:47):
Christy, I completely agree with Gary.

Speaker 1 (35:50):
That's it.

Speaker 2 (35:50):
I'm not going to give you too much. Yeah, I
love it. I love her.

Speaker 1 (35:53):
Gary said, Yeah, let's slow it up a little bit
and see if you can make her just a little
bit older and go from there.

Speaker 4 (35:58):
But oh the I miss this? How can we ask
ages on you? I'm just curious how you really are
twenty too? All right?

Speaker 3 (36:06):
Wow?

Speaker 4 (36:07):
Okay, that's great?

Speaker 1 (36:09):
Like this, so Eileen, at your pleasure.

Speaker 3 (36:14):
That's a couch. Want to know how I can tell
because I can see it? Great, rug, Want to know
how I can tell because I can see it. You
can spend all the money in the world on your furniture,
but if you can't see it, who cares. That's where
Florman's Lamps come in. With over thirty thousand square feet
of store space, Flormans has everything you could possibly want

(36:37):
for all your lamp and illumination needs, because if you
can't see it, then who cares that you have it?
Florman's with eleven convenient locations in the Pennsylvania area.

Speaker 1 (36:48):
Thank you very much. We'll be right back for a
round number three. And you got your thoughts?

Speaker 4 (36:52):
I think, I think, oh, yeah, please at that?

Speaker 1 (36:58):
Yeah, what are your thoughts? Christy?

Speaker 2 (37:00):
I really love Eileen's tone. She has such a fun
like just there's something about her that and actually I
don't know if maybe Gary, if you can feel me
on this one, but She kind of reminds me of
the voice character who played Maana who is playing Haley

(37:23):
and Haley's on it. She's got this fun, youthful, almost
like rebellious kind of grit, but it's just really like
modern and I really like I agree when Gary says
that she would work like in her particular like Niche,
I think she would. Oh yeah, it's tricky because with
this we are looking for the most well rounded, you

(37:46):
know that, because because that's really that's really what we're
trying to do is set somebody up to have a
very long career. And so that isn't to say that
Eileen couldn't play that character like when she's my age, right,
because it's her voice and it's her tone and that's
not going away. I love her tone. I don't know
about her acting, chops when it's compared to Hailey. Hailey

(38:10):
is a singer. Hailey is many things, and she's in
the pocket of creating character background and so for her
to make those adjustments like you said, will she's extremely directable.
It's I think because she has so much perspective.

Speaker 4 (38:24):
Ten cents two cents, Yeah, I think it was. I
think it was about that was your twelve cents. Something is.

Speaker 1 (38:32):
Giving out a dime kids. Most people to give their
two cents, Christy's giving out.

Speaker 4 (38:36):
As a horrible budget.

Speaker 5 (38:43):
I think that her voice is charming and very young,
and I think she can absolutely make money off of
that voice. I think it's very young and she can
take some direction. But she just has a very That's
why I asked her age. I don't know if that
was appropriate and not. She sounds young and youthful, and
it is. Her voice is actually very engaging for me

(39:06):
to hear. Yeah, but it seems like it's going to
be more more in that same field. I mean, you
guys heard a lot more of her than I have today.

Speaker 1 (39:15):
Yeah, I think again, it's uh, she does have that
youthful exuberance that everybody wants to cast. I mean, that's
which is great. Uh yeah, but when you're looking for
the all around kind of you're gonna you know, again,
as Christy was saying, Haley seems far a far more
polished actor. That does not mean that that can't happen

(39:39):
for Eileen. We're just unfortunately talking about just today. But
you know, let's see what they do with the cold
read and go from there. But it's yeah. I mean,
there's Eileen is right in the wheelhouse of what everybody's
looking for voice wise nowadays. But as for well rounded,
we'll have to see. So let's I don't know, let's say, uh,

(40:01):
Christy left or right? So left hand is going to
be Eileen, right hand is going to be Hailey. Okay, no, wait,
that would be yeah. No, okay, good, that does work.
So left is empty. So right, so Haley is going
to go first. We'll just keep it, keep it as

(40:22):
fair as possible. So let's bring Haley in first and
give her Hey, Haley. So once again we are throwing
a cold read at you. Yep. Can you see the
line of dialogue there? Yeah, all right, we will stay
out of your head for the first round. Go ahead

(40:43):
at your pleasure.

Speaker 7 (40:44):
I can't remember the last good night's sleep I had.
It's like I hit thirty and my body just said
that's it. Be prepared to be tired for the rest
of your life. I was dragging at work and had
no energy to play with my kids. Then I found Trinquill,
the new app that not only tracks my sleep patterns,
but suggests certain types of meditation coupled with soothing. White

(41:08):
noise to guarantee me the full night's sleep that I
haven't been able to find in years. Just by answering
a few simple questions, Trenquill has changed when and how
I sleep. Now when I wake up in the morning,
I have all the energy I need to be the
parent my kids need. Thanks trenth Will.

Speaker 4 (41:30):
Gerry. I want to go a totally different direction with
this read YEP.

Speaker 5 (41:36):
I want to be it needs to be one of
those like if you were watching television and the lights
are really low and it's very just earnest, like let me,
let me help you find.

Speaker 4 (41:47):
What worked for me, like so.

Speaker 7 (41:52):
So it's just super genuine.

Speaker 5 (41:54):
Yeah, super genuine. I guess that's more.

Speaker 4 (41:56):
Like a.

Speaker 7 (41:59):
Confessional as opposed to U.

Speaker 5 (42:01):
Yes, that's what you hit it right on the head
that Yeah, is that cool with everybody?

Speaker 2 (42:07):
It's great with me, Kristy, Yes, I think I agree.

Speaker 4 (42:12):
I know.

Speaker 2 (42:14):
It's like I don't want to give her anything too
different because we want to clear read.

Speaker 4 (42:19):
Yeah, yeah, absolutely absolutely, because.

Speaker 2 (42:21):
I'm like I wish this there was a way to
synthesize getting her to sound tired.

Speaker 1 (42:29):
That I can take that works.

Speaker 5 (42:33):
In the like I can't remember the word you said
Haley genuine say that that tiredness can come through in
that too.

Speaker 1 (42:44):
Also, if I'm the sponsor, I'd want to say, if
you're using Tranquil, you would no longer be tired.

Speaker 4 (42:49):
You wouldn't be tired.

Speaker 7 (42:50):
I can change it. There's there could be a shift.
It can start back when I.

Speaker 2 (42:56):
Talked too much to see what I did.

Speaker 1 (43:00):
All do your thing? We got that.

Speaker 4 (43:02):
I still want to.

Speaker 1 (43:05):
I'm surprised.

Speaker 2 (43:06):
Usually she's asleep just right there, so maybe just happen.

Speaker 1 (43:10):
Maybe all right, Haley, go ahead.

Speaker 7 (43:14):
I can't remember the last good night's sleep I had.
It's like I hit thirty and my body just said, yeah,
that's it.

Speaker 2 (43:22):
Be prepared to be tired for the rest of your life.

Speaker 7 (43:25):
I was dragging at work and had no energy to
play with my kids. Then I found Tranquil, the new
app that not only tracks my sleep patterns, but suggests
certain types of meditation coupled with soothing white noise to
guarantee me the full night's sleep that I haven't been
able to find in years. Just by answering a few

(43:45):
simple questions, Tranquill has changed when and how I sleep.
Now when I wake up in the morning, I have
all the energy I need to be the parent my
kids need.

Speaker 1 (43:56):
Thanks Tranquil, Thank you very much. We'll be right back
with you.

Speaker 4 (44:01):
Cool. Thank you.

Speaker 1 (44:03):
It's just uber directable and all the instincts are there
as well. I'm curious to see what Eileen's going to
do with this because it's a little out of a
wheelhouse for the age again. So but maybe that kind
of youthful exuberance is something that a company like this
would want because they want you to sound like you're
on Tranquil. You're using Tranquil, so I least see what happens.

(44:28):
Let's bring Eileen in. Yeah, Hi, Eileen, how are you HII? So,
like the last round, we are throwing a cold read
at you and you should have it right there at
your pleasure, whatever you want to do.

Speaker 3 (44:45):
I can't remember the last time I had a good
night's sleep. It's like I hit thirty and my body
just said that's it. Be prepared to be tired for
the rest of your life. I was dragging at work
and had no energy to play with my kids. Then
I found Tranquill. The new app then only tracks my
sleep patterns, but suggest certain types of meditation coupled with
soothing white noise to guarantee me with the full night's

(45:07):
sleep that I have been haven't been able to find
in years. Just by answering a few simple questions, Trinkle
has changed how I sleep and now when I wake
up in the morning, all I have is so much
energy that I need to be the parents. Ooh, hold on,
I have all the energy I need to be the
parent my kids need. Thanks tranquill, Why don't.

Speaker 1 (45:27):
You do why don't you do the Just take the
last paragraph again?

Speaker 3 (45:30):
Go ahead, sure, Just by answering a few simple questions,
Trinkle has changed when and how I sleep. Now when
I wake up in the morning, all I have all
the energy I need to be the parent my kids need.

Speaker 2 (45:43):
Thanks strength, will.

Speaker 4 (45:45):
Okay, I would do. I would do another read.

Speaker 5 (45:52):
It's based on partially what you did. You did start
it out very like still that sleepy person, and then
and go ahead and put more energy in it towards
when you get get to the end. So I just
want to hear just a little bit more of that shift.
And I know part of it was brand new words
stuck in front of your face that you're trying to
act act through. I do like how you started it

(46:14):
out with her more more low energy, and then kind
of like seeing the trenk while working on you, go
ahead and let's make that a little bit more evident
and see what it feels like.

Speaker 4 (46:24):
That would be my note, Christy.

Speaker 2 (46:31):
I mean, it's hard because the character is thirty and
has children, so I really this one, this one's kind
of difficult. Will I don't really have a clear note
for her, considering you know, we're trying to put her
down the best road for this.

Speaker 1 (46:49):
I think I liked your tone. I frankly thought you didn't.
I didn't think you sounded too young, frankly at all.
I thought I thought you were right in the wheelhouse
with that. I would say, take your time and don't
concentrate so much on the words. If the words don't come,
that's fine. You can even just take a pause and
redo the line, or just make sure you're getting the

(47:09):
feel of the product more than anything else. The words
will come. All that makes sense, So just take your
time and give us one more. See what you can do.

Speaker 3 (47:19):
I can't remember the last good night's sleep I had.
It's like I hit thirty and my body just said
that's it. Be you prepared to be tired for the
rest of your life. I was dragging at work and
had no energy to play with my kids. Then I
found Tranquill, the new app that not only tracks my
sleep patterns, but suggest certain types of meditation coupled with
soothing white noise to guarantee me a full night's sleep

(47:42):
that I haven't been able to find in years. Just
by answering a few simple questions, Tranquill has changed me
on how I sleep. Now, when I wake up in
the morning, I have all the energy I need to
be the parents my kids need. Thanks Traank will.

Speaker 1 (47:58):
Thank you so much. We'll be right back with you.

Speaker 9 (48:00):
Gifts.

Speaker 1 (48:10):
All right, it's decision time. I personally don't think we
need to go to a tiebreaker challenge. That's my own opinion.
I think Hayley is just more seasoned.

Speaker 5 (48:20):
I need to And I honestly think Eiling will do great.

Speaker 1 (48:25):
If Guy's the limit at twenty two with that voice,
oh yeah, Guy's the Sky's the limit.

Speaker 4 (48:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (48:30):
And I actually was surprised, Like I thought she did
great in that last I just thought it was gonna
sound way too young. Yeah, And it didn't for her,
but it really didn't for me. I agree, But I
have to go with what you said. And I don't
know how Christy feels.

Speaker 2 (48:43):
No, I think Haylee's the clear winner. I think she's
ready to go. She's moving to California like she could
actually like like what we said, we are looking for
somebody to literally start working. And she is in the
mentality and she's she's ready. She's really ready.

Speaker 4 (49:01):
To get rid of that cat.

Speaker 1 (49:02):
Yeah, the cat's gotta go. Cat's gonna go.

Speaker 5 (49:06):
We tell you that, you guys, Okay, uh, I'll leave
it to Will, the letter nodding heavily when he says, Okay,
so we uh, let's let's let's oh god, let's do this.

Speaker 1 (49:21):
Why don't we start with We will start with Eileen
and let her know so much. Hey, Aleen, how are you?
Can you hear us? Thank you so much again. Congratulations
on getting this far in the contest. Unfortunately, this is
going to be as far as you're going to be going.
That said, all of us agree that the sky is

(49:43):
the limit for you. Your voice, the quality of your
voice and the texture of your voice, and especially the
age of your voice. There's a there's a young exuberance
to your voice that everybody is looking for.

Speaker 5 (49:57):
That's why I asked you how old you were, because
I mean you have there's a big range in there
that you are just going to do nothing but make
money with your throat.

Speaker 4 (50:06):
In this range that.

Speaker 5 (50:07):
You have, you are going to I'm telling you right now,
unless you just stopped today and said I don't want
to do this anymore, You're going to make a lot
of throat money. You are going to make money with
that voice of yours. It's such a sweet, endearing, drawing
people in kind of voice. You're going to wallow around
in that. Probably start expanding on some little older stuff,

(50:29):
but wallow around in what you got now because people
people would pay to have what you have.

Speaker 1 (50:34):
Right now and will and will pay for Well, you're
going to make money.

Speaker 4 (50:39):
Yeah, now you're ready doing voice over there where you
are now?

Speaker 3 (50:44):
Not recently I did before when I was younger, but
I do want to get it.

Speaker 4 (50:47):
Yeah, get back in that. Well it's going to be
are you really are? Your voice is fantastic.

Speaker 1 (50:52):
Somebody's going to sign you. You're going to be working.
If I had one suggestion for you, I would say
take some improv classes, maybe take some acting classes, But
the timbre of your voice everything it's you're right in
that wheelhouse. You really you really are you just to
be totally honest, you kind of ran into a buzz
saw today. Your fellow contestant was, is just it was
on point all day some day. Some days you have

(51:14):
good days and some days you have bad days. And
you were both really good.

Speaker 5 (51:17):
You're really you're really really good. You really are that
all of us on here make money doing this. If
you're telling you that, it's not a lie.

Speaker 4 (51:26):
You're really really good.

Speaker 5 (51:27):
You have a fantastic sounding voice. So I would just
say go do like do what he says, take those
classes and at the same time be doing this right now. Yeah,
you got you got a good sound coming up.

Speaker 1 (51:40):
You're going to be great. And again you went from
forty five hundred to the top what six?

Speaker 4 (51:47):
You know? Not bad?

Speaker 5 (51:50):
So I would hire you. I would hire you. That
would that's not.

Speaker 4 (51:53):
Even I will.

Speaker 2 (51:56):
Okay, So I guess And it's tough because I want
to address something while she's still on. Somebody uh DMed
me and said that they really really wish that we
could shout out y'all's socials. Unfortunately we can't do that
because there are people who are actively listening to you
guys and wanting to hire you. So unfortunately, legal I

(52:21):
don't think allows us to be able to like truly
get you guys. We can't first and last name. So
I don't have a problem. We don't have a problem
with it. If they talk about it on their own
socials and maybe you could put the hashtag I hear voices,
you know. And if you put the hashtag I hear
voices and you were a contestant on the show, people
will be able to find you more directly. But we

(52:41):
will not be able to endorse you know, everyone's socials
for legal reason.

Speaker 1 (52:44):
Can't.

Speaker 2 (52:45):
That's Eileen, Like there's somebody out there that's watching this
saying I want to hire Eileen. So please that's awesome.

Speaker 4 (52:51):
Yeah, good stuff, And that's hard. That was hard to do.

Speaker 5 (52:55):
Like pick up regular raw copy without even looking over before.

Speaker 1 (53:04):
Hold your head up high because you deserve it, and
you will. We'll see you in the booth someday soon.
I promise.

Speaker 3 (53:08):
I appreciate that.

Speaker 2 (53:10):
I love what I have with you all in the future.

Speaker 1 (53:12):
Thank you, please do thank you.

Speaker 4 (53:14):
Eileen.

Speaker 1 (53:17):
All right now, it's the fine fun car, okay.

Speaker 5 (53:20):
Except for they can't bro well wait, wait too, Yeah,
hey Haley, Hello, how are you?

Speaker 1 (53:29):
I'm good so as I'm sure you know. We're we're
trying to find somebody that could step into the booth
right away. And the the contestants are getting better, just
the it's we're really sucking it down. It's and we're
trying so hard to nitpick and do what we have
to do, but it's left us with a very terrible

(53:50):
decision and we just we hate doing this. But we
don't like your cat.

Speaker 2 (53:55):
Yeah, we don't. We can't deal with that cat.

Speaker 1 (53:58):
Another one. If not the cat, she says, then you're fine. Congratulations,
you're moving on to the next round.

Speaker 2 (54:12):
Every time. Every time, condition.

Speaker 1 (54:20):
Well, you know you would do the copy for the heart,
the heart medicine, but no, congratulations to the final You're
on to the final four. You're on to the final four.
It's tough, so uh And again, I was not lying.
I was not lying when I said that it's getting tougher.
The contestants are all so good. We are nitpicking left

(54:42):
and right. Just keep doing what you're doing and go
from there, because we're going to see you in the
next round. Thank you.

Speaker 7 (54:49):
I can cry when I hang up, But I'll try
not to.

Speaker 1 (54:52):
That's okay. I can also promise you, though, that the
next round we're going to start to get really real.
So it's going to be yeah, it's the next round
is gonna gonna be even tougher and tougher and tougher.
So congratulations, you can keep the cats. I guess that's fine.
I'm not doing that.

Speaker 4 (55:12):
I'm not the nice guy here. Get rid of one
of those cans to flip a.

Speaker 1 (55:17):
Coin to find out which one's story. I drop myself.
