Today I bring on a Voice Actor with an enormous body of work. Beau Weaver has seen great success in TV Affiliate work, Network Promo, Syndicated TV Promo, Commercial, Narration, Trailers, Live Announce (Emmy’s and more), Animation, Radio Imaging and everything in between. Beau started in radio in the 60’s moving into voiceover in the late 70’s and has been cruising ever since.
Beau has won awards including the Promax BDA Award for best voiceover in television promos, and in 2015 received the special Voice Arts award for outstanding body of work. He is also on the Advisory Board at the Screen Actors Guild Don LaFontaine Voiceover Lab.
Guests have talked about the “olden days” where they had to send voiceover on TAPE via FEDEX. Well, Beau was one of THE first to do that. He was also one of the very first to have a HOME STUDIO for Voiceover, do his own marketing, have a website that streamed audio and helped pioneer the “road rig.”
Beau was so generous with his knowledge and stories and I am thrilled to have him as a guest.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
