Inspired by Lupita Nyong’o’s charmingly complex work in The Wild Robot, Josh and I talk about some of our favorite voice performances of all time. We also reflect on some of our own experiences. Josh played a psychotic pumpkin in the horror anthology flick HeBGBTV and on stage as Karnak in Ride the Cyclone. Wally has, somewhat reluctantly, recorded ADR (or automatic dialogue replacement).
