And try and if you know, if I'm not doing

So taking class and oh yeah, yeah, I'm learning how
to play. I say that I've been taking guitar lessons
for years now, but I do it so weekly to
force myself to talk to a teacher and.

Speaker 1 (01:40):
Oh that's good.

Speaker 5 (01:41):
Yeah, good for you.

Yeah, thanks, Wow, it makes me happy.

Speaker 1 (01:44):
It's music there, your first first musical adventure.

Speaker 4 (01:48):
No, I played the piano as a kid, and I
just didn't keep it up.

Speaker 1 (01:52):
And it's harder to lug around, you know.

Speaker 4 (01:54):
Yes, that's my excuse. Guitars you can take on a plane.
But I do wish i'd the guitar younger because it's
it's a great one.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
To Yeah, I agree. I think that about piano all
the time. It's like, why didn't you know I played drums?
But everybody like, uh, okay.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
You know, tapping at the tables.

Speaker 1 (02:15):
Now do you sing too? Do you like to sing?

Speaker 4 (02:18):
I can carry a tune like musicals when I was
a kid, and then I got to college and I
think I got intimidated by my peers who were a
lot better.

Speaker 2 (02:26):
So I can sing, but I wouldn't do I won't
do Broadway, but I you know, I can sing a
character and stuff.

Speaker 1 (02:32):
Sure, yeah, look there's one now, yeah you.

Speaker 2 (02:34):
Gommy, And.

Speaker 1 (02:38):
That was not a hillbilly. That was a street girl.

Speaker 4 (02:41):
Yeah she well you know she she does live in
New York and she has many jobs.

Speaker 2 (02:47):
So they're smoking cigarettes.

Speaker 5 (02:50):
Yeah, yeah, that's right.

Speaker 3 (02:51):
It's interesting to me how many voice actors have musical backgrounds.
It's like, I mean, I guess it's the you know,
the same instrument or whatnot. But I mean so many
people ask you guys, you know, like how what should
I do to become a voice actor? And like I
feel like the answer should always be musical theater or
play an instrument or sing. It seems so many like
especially that we've had on this podcast. It's like in

(03:12):
a band growing up, played music, growing up, sung growing up,
you know, and it's like such a common theme that
it has to influence somehow.

Speaker 2 (03:19):
I think that for sure.

Speaker 4 (03:21):
I mean my parents would play Aba and the Beatles
a lot when I was growing up. But I I
love languages, and I think that was that was the
gateway for me.

Speaker 2 (03:29):
I speak a few languages and had a really good ear.

Speaker 1 (03:31):
So you speak several correct, Yeah, that's impressive. Thanks, I
mean thanks Portuguese, Yeah, port Portuguese. Yes, wow.

Speaker 4 (03:41):
I mean I grew up speaking English and Spanish and
then learned Portuguese and Italian.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
But but I feel like that helps fine tune, like
what you're hearing and imitating.

Speaker 1 (03:50):
Oh sure that would have to Yeah, wow, good for you.
Thank you. I can English is kicking my ass?

Speaker 2 (03:58):
No it's not, it's not you. You do it very I.

Speaker 1 (04:00):
Did speak all right, I I could do it fine.
That's crazy.

Speaker 3 (04:08):
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (04:09):
And you were born and I was born, and has
it been working out since?

Speaker 3 (04:16):
You know?

Speaker 2 (04:17):
So far?

Speaker 1 (04:17):
So good?

Speaker 2 (04:18):
Life is pretty cool.

Speaker 4 (04:21):
I was born and raised in Colombia, Carli, Columbia. Yeah, yeah,
you know, I'm a mix. My My grandma was from Wisconsin,
another grandfather from Spain, but then two others from Colombia.
So that's kind of my genetic makeup, but grew up
in Columbia speaking English and Spanish.

Speaker 1 (04:37):
Oh that's great, Yeah, that's cool.

Speaker 3 (04:40):
And did you always know you wanted to be a
voice actor or did you start wanting to be an
actor on stage or on camera or what was your
first first kind of spark of like, you know what,
this is what I want to do as a living.

Speaker 4 (04:51):
My mom was very good at observing what her three
daughters loved. And I was a very hyperactive child, and
so I auditioned for a musical when I was four
and a half and it was the Sound of Music,
So I got to play the youngest little girl of
the family and I just, oh my god.

Speaker 2 (05:10):
I loved it, loved it.

Speaker 4 (05:12):
So I started doing plays in school, never professionally, just
in school and just loved it so much, and then
just continued kind of I was very hyper.

Speaker 1 (05:20):
And and yeah you too, Uh yeah, like Tiger.

Speaker 2 (05:24):
Tiger was a big inspiration for me.

Speaker 4 (05:26):
Holy Cow was my favorite character, and I felt like
I had that bounce in me, So I definitely it
was something that you know, Thank goodness my parents supported
you're doing me because it was definitely what you know,
And I loved the animation I loved Robin Williams doing
the Genie and a lot.

Speaker 1 (05:42):
In Oh yeah, me too. Yeah, he was pretty good
at that.

Speaker 5 (05:46):
He wasn't sent Yeah, yeah, my god.

Speaker 1 (05:49):
Yeah, Well that's how it was with me. I used
to I used to see, well, Mel Blank and Paul
Winchell were my early heroes early in the day. I
can remember, you know, I've said it before. I'm sitting
there watching Mel Blank doing this bit on the Old
Jack Penny program, and my dad goes, he does all
that has and you know, bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck,

(06:12):
and I said it before. I was like, I looked
at him and I thought, well, he nobody thinks he's weird.
They think he's pretty cool. Maybe I'll just do that.

Speaker 2 (06:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (06:20):
So it was five at the time, and it worked
out cool.

Speaker 4 (06:25):
I wish I hadn't clocked that animation was an avenue
for work.

Speaker 1 (06:30):
Uh huh.

Speaker 2 (06:31):
You know, I knew acting was sure, but the voice
that like I loved. I loved cartoons.

Speaker 4 (06:36):
I would imitate you know, Mickey Mouse and the Wood
he would Pecker and I definitely tried to do Tiggers,
but I obviously never succeeded at it. Good, good, right,
but I didn't know we could, we could work in animation.

Speaker 1 (06:51):
Why would Pecker? That's a good one, because not everybody,
you know, I mean I remember him as a kid,
and then they had a little brief revival I don't know,
like fifteen something years ago. Can you give us some woody?

Speaker 2 (07:03):
Oh no, no, I can't.

Speaker 1 (07:04):
I would.

Speaker 4 (07:05):
I said I would imitate him, but I never said
I did it. Well, I just thought he was funny.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
Even better, Can you give us some lousywoody?

Speaker 2 (07:13):
I can't even remember now, I don't even I can't pretty.
I'm trying to recall it, but I don't.

Speaker 4 (07:20):
As a kid, I just, you know, obsessed over these,
but I didn't do them. Well, No, I imitated my
parents' friends.

Speaker 2 (07:25):
Is a gentleman lady who talked about this Paul Berry's
you know that kind of stuff. Yeah, out of my mouth.

Speaker 1 (07:30):
Well that's I've said it before. That's that's how I started.
I would do impressions of my relatives, and that's you know,
they didn't think it was all that much fun then.

Speaker 5 (07:40):
Yeah, right, but it's not too bad.

Speaker 2 (07:42):
Funniest relative, Well, the one you enjoyed to imitate.

Speaker 1 (07:46):
The most, well, my aunt Grace, God rest her soul. Yeah,
she she was. She was on Chippendale Rescue Rangers and
she was out, you.

Speaker 5 (07:56):
Know, a detective dad. You know, how you doing, how
Yin's doing?

Speaker 1 (08:01):
Yin's kids?

Speaker 5 (08:02):
You get down out of that tree.

Speaker 1 (08:04):
Day, you know. And it was, uh, and what can
I say? I mean, that's actually kind of sounds like her.

Speaker 2 (08:10):
That's amazing.

Speaker 4 (08:11):
Isn't that cool that we can channel these people? We
know the character that then lives in Yoie cartoons.

Speaker 1 (08:17):
Oh? Yeah, and my uncle Sam, he was a guy there.
He's like he's a kind of used him for leatherhead
and a combination of him and my old tug boat
captain used to be a deckhand on the river boats
when I was Yeah, and I put him together and
out came a leatherhead for the teen hemutin Edja turtles.

Speaker 2 (08:40):
Oh my gosh.

Speaker 4 (08:41):
I mean, I'm sure you've talked about this a ton,
But where did your Pooh boys come from?

Speaker 1 (08:45):
Well? That one, that one was easy. That was the great,
late great Sterling Holloway. He was there in the sixties,
you know, when I was in the audience, and uh,
he winned the Pooh had been out in those There
were three little shorts that they put together the Disney
put out I guess he put them out before like

(09:06):
feature films, because they're like fifteen twenty minutes each. But
somebody said, let's put these all together and put release
it as its own film. So it was these three
shorts twenty minutes together and added up to an hour
and plus minutes, and it won an Academy Award for
in nineteen sixty whatever it was. I don't even remember.

(09:27):
And it was crazy because they went away for like
twenty years. They won an Academy Award then did nothing,
and which is fine because I've said it before. It
gave me a chance to grow up and perfect my
Winny the pooor Tigger. Yeah, so that worked out. Now
I'm for the past forty years, I've been doing it.

(09:48):
It's crazy, literally most of my life. Oh cool, Yeah,
it's not special.

Speaker 5 (09:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (09:53):
Now I get to hang out with you.

Speaker 2 (09:55):
Yeah, we get to hang out.

Speaker 1 (09:56):
See. So this is working out great?

Speaker 2 (09:58):
Yes, it is, do you know?

Speaker 5 (10:00):
And it's working out yes, awesome.

Speaker 2 (10:04):
So you know.

Speaker 1 (10:05):
I I.

Speaker 4 (10:07):
We've crossed paths at conventions, and when I first started
doing conventions, I didn't understand the reactions of the people coming.

Speaker 2 (10:16):
They were so excited to hear me do my sombra voice.
And I didn't.

Speaker 4 (10:19):
I didn't understand why they were geeking out so much.
And then I heard you do pooh, and and then
I understood because it did take me back to my childhood.

Speaker 2 (10:29):
Oh, and I was like, oh, I get that.

Speaker 1 (10:32):
What it happens?

Speaker 4 (10:33):
Yeah, I hadn't. It just it does this thing that's
not intellectual. It just takes over and you go oh
and all of a sudden, you're transported. And so so
I was able to kind of then understand it in
myself to understand how why they were in line for me.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
Does that make sense?

Speaker 3 (10:51):
Absolutely?

Speaker 2 (10:52):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (10:52):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 3 (10:53):
And video games are interesting too, because like not only
are you hearing the voice, but like a lot of
the times you are that character, you're controlling that character.
Like when we had we had David Hayter on probably
like last year, and you know, he voices Snake from
the Metal Gear saud series, and man, when he does
his voice, it's like it struck me so much harder
than like any of the you know, cartoon voice actors

(11:15):
we've had, because like I put undoubtedly more hours as
that person. Yeah, quote unquote, you know, while I was
enjoying that medium, and it's like this, I don't know,
it's just like this weird, little like extra connectivity. And
I think that's why people are so drawn, especially in
this modern day and age when video games are so
cinematic and you know, so realistic. You know, it's like, oh,

(11:36):
oh my god, that was like the voice in my
head while I'm playing.

Speaker 4 (11:39):
Yeah, yeah, you're playing in first person and you're making
the decisions. But also things happen with certain voice lines.
So if you're about to use your magical ultimate power
you say a line, you're dying you say a line,
or you know, there's so there's interactions that mean things,
and so it triggers.

Speaker 2 (11:55):
This like visceral emotion. That's like, oh in game, the
adrenaline of what happened. So I think it's even.

Speaker 3 (12:02):
More Yeah, for sure, it's like when Captain America says assemble,
you know, like something's happening with that voice line. It's
like a call to arms, it's a it changes the
whole You're adrenaline's going while you're playing, and it's like,
oh man, this is going to be intense or it
is intense or YadA yah YadA.

Speaker 4 (12:17):
You understand right when you play all the first person shooters,
Oh yeah, online against all those twelve year olds, because
those are hard, they're too fast for me.

Speaker 2 (12:26):
I don't.

Speaker 1 (12:27):
Yeah, well I do sell armaments in not.

Speaker 3 (12:30):
Call of Duty, grand theft.

Speaker 1 (12:32):
Grand theft thought of Oh heck, yeah, I'm the guy
that sells I totally before my nephew called me up
years ago. He goes, Oh, good Jimmy, did I just
buy a rocket launcher off of you at an old
gas station? I go, what are you playing? He goes grant, Yeah,
that was me. Did I give you a good price?
He goes, I don't know.

Speaker 4 (12:50):
Which the first one, the first GTA five? Oh same,
I'm in that one too cool?

Speaker 1 (12:55):
Yeah? Did I sell you anything?

Speaker 2 (12:57):
And no, I'm also you can hire me to I'm
a cheap driver, so yeah, and I think I might die.
I think my storyline is, but you can use me
for a while and.

Speaker 3 (13:10):
You're like one of the characters that like you choose
through the store.

Speaker 1 (13:13):
Yeah yeah, yeah, oh man, you could choose to say goodbye.

Speaker 3 (13:16):
To you have to like go rob banks and stuff,
and then like you get like a crew where like
you get to choose from and like you can choose,
like each of them have like skills. This is going
on a tangent, but I'm going to say it anyway.

Speaker 1 (13:28):
Yeah, everybody out there.

Speaker 3 (13:29):
They so like if you choose the person with like
low driving skills, you know, they might take less of
a cut, you know, your end cut of the robbery,
but then there's a higher chance of it like going
wrong because they're a bad driver. So like while you're
playing the game, it's like, oh, they're a bad driver,
and so they crash and now we have to do
the rest of the heights on foot or whatever.

Speaker 2 (13:46):
Like exactly, I'm a good driver and I charge cheap,
but also I when you come upon me, I'm already wounded.

Speaker 3 (13:55):
So I like, there you go. There's a complication.

Speaker 2 (13:57):
Yeah you know, yeah.

Speaker 1 (13:59):
Jesus, Yeah, that's that's no fair starting off with one
foot in the grave something.

Speaker 5 (14:04):
Yeah, exactly, that's what I meant.

Speaker 1 (14:07):
I meant to say, gutter.

Speaker 3 (14:08):
It really is the It was like working with Rockstar
Games because you did red that redemption too, if I'm
not mistaken as well, right yeah, and.

Speaker 2 (14:16):
Is Max Pain Max Pain three as well?

Speaker 3 (14:18):
Yeah that's rock Star as well. Right, Yes, that's when.

Speaker 4 (14:20):
I used to Live in New York City in that
rat Race we were talking about earlier, and uh, it's
just it's motion capture in those three games, and it's
a lot of fun.

Speaker 2 (14:29):
I feel like it's very free because.

Speaker 4 (14:31):
You know, you're you're kind of in a wetsuit with
little balls all over and.

Speaker 1 (14:35):
Oh yeah, you do that too, Huh that's wow. Yeah, yeah,
I almost. I did that sort of once for Cat
Talk and then Hondo and.

Speaker 2 (14:46):
You did motion capture for Cat Talk.

Speaker 1 (14:48):
Well, it was just it was Tom Kenny and I
were sitting next to each other and we did it live,
which was so weird because we're sitting there with these
stupid balls all over and they they were animators sitting
there wing movements and it was very limited. It was
like you know, oh no, now what you know? And
it was so it wasn't.

Speaker 3 (15:08):
It was like motion capture to essentially like create a
live performance of a cartoon.

Speaker 1 (15:12):
Yeah, it was live performance. That's that was the rub
of it. That was the thing, because it's like, wait,
a live cartoon, how could that?

Speaker 2 (15:19):
I see? I see, I see? Okay. It was kind
of cool, Yeah cool, I can see that.

Speaker 1 (15:24):
Cool, But but yeah, it killed an.

Speaker 5 (15:27):
Afternoon and you were the half cat of that was
that was that was cat.

Speaker 1 (15:32):
I am Cat.

Speaker 2 (15:33):
I should know this. Yeah you know I have just les,
the dogs and the cats. They just you know, yeah.

Speaker 1 (15:39):
Yes, there you go. That's my excuse to justle Yeah. Sure,
what were we talking about?

Speaker 2 (15:46):
That's just forgetful.

Speaker 1 (15:48):
Wait that's right, that's the way it's reading. Just like well,
it's like I was saying.

Speaker 3 (15:55):
Round Games in New York. You're doing the motion capture
out there? What was like there? The process, like working with.

Speaker 4 (16:03):
My characters weren't ever super important, so I got to
do a lot of I guess glorified extra work, just
long days on set, no cap.

Speaker 2 (16:12):
It's fun. The everyone on the team's great. I had
they just assign a different right now, you're a cowboy.

Speaker 3 (16:20):
Doing this on the spot on the spot, yeah.

Speaker 4 (16:22):
Because they just need people filling these kind of like
holes of stuff.

Speaker 2 (16:25):
And so once I was a lady in waiting, and
then other you know, another time I.

Speaker 4 (16:29):
Was some surfer dude and GTA and just walk in
and buy a taco. So it's kind of like character
work because they're going to put whatever image they want
on you. So she could be an old lady sweeping
or you know, or a cowgirl or all sorts of things.
So it was just kind of like, Okay, it doesn't
matter what I look like. I'm just gonna embody this
character in.

Speaker 3 (16:49):
So, do you have improv experience? I mean that sounds
kind of like intimidating for them to just rattle off
different characters and say, go, go go.

Speaker 2 (16:57):
I did take improv, but that was late, I guess.
Up until then, it was just I like doing characters. So,
you know, I don't know as an actor.

Speaker 4 (17:05):
I mean I trained in theater in Boston, so I
knew about and then I just I'm a weirdo. So
she's an old lady. Okay, maybe she has a you know,
she has a funny walk or something. And I was
always doing voices just for fun, so I think it
just kind of came.

Speaker 2 (17:19):
It came naturally.

Speaker 1 (17:20):
Yeah, yeah, the same here. It was just an annoying
kid and cashed in on it, you know, And you
grew up in California, well Youngstown, Ohio, and.

Speaker 2 (17:31):
You came out here though to do the voice thing.

Speaker 1 (17:34):
A long time ago. I lived in New Orleans for
a good long while and then got married moved to California.
And I started doing this in the first year year
and a half.

Speaker 4 (17:47):
Wow, that's not what happens to people who come out
here these days.

Speaker 2 (17:51):
They take ten years or more.

Speaker 5 (17:52):
Yeah, make it happen.

Speaker 1 (17:54):
Yeah, well I was very, very fortunate. I won't bore
you with this, but there was a guy that came
into my video store and he knew a guy who
was hiring, and so I sent me out on I
didn't even have an agent. I went out and I
auditioned and I got the gig and it was done
both circus and it went and it was sixty five episodes.

(18:15):
So it went on for a year and a half.
And uh and it just completely eclipsed my fifty hour
a week job job, yeah that I had and so
and then at the end of that time, I had
an agent and uh and so and I'm now here,
I am a store.

Speaker 4 (18:35):
Yeah, I know, because it's it's you know, the story
is an I mean, not an overnight success, but it's
it was a quick.

Speaker 2 (18:41):
One, you know.

Speaker 1 (18:42):
Yeah, yeah, it was almost it was took about a month?
Was it quite overnight? See? Okay? Over how much over
see you see how much worse it was?

Speaker 2 (18:51):
Oh, I'm so sorry you had to wait a month.

Speaker 4 (18:53):
No, but then when you when you started doing Pooh
and Tigger, though, how often would you record with Pooh Tiger?

Speaker 1 (19:02):
Oh? Well, cheez, We've we did so many series. The
first one was the New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh
and that went for a couple of a couple of seasons,
a couple of years, and then the book a Poo
And there was Winnie the Pooh and Tigger too, and

(19:23):
my Friends Tigger and Pooh. There was always you know,
a lot of pooh, yeah, a lot of poo going on,
a lot of bouncing.

Speaker 2 (19:30):
But bouncing. I don't know if those go well together.

Speaker 1 (19:34):
Yeah, no, they don't. You don't want to. But and
we just now wrapped up the latest iteration of the
Mickey Mouse Club because I'm yeah for and that's been
going on for like thirty years in one story storyline
or another.

Speaker 2 (19:51):
That's great.

Speaker 4 (19:51):
So yeah, so you just reminded me of growing up
in Spanish. It's not Winni the Poo, it's just Winnie.

Speaker 1 (19:59):
Pool, Winnie Pool wool. And ohso food was another one, right,
that's isn't that from Brazil? Oh?

Speaker 5 (20:06):
Also pool?

Speaker 1 (20:07):
No? Oh?

Speaker 4 (20:07):
Okay, well, I mean maybe in Portuguese, they've translated it
to also pool, but in Spanish we don't say the
bear part yes, because also means but it's just weinie pool.

Speaker 2 (20:17):
But I don't think latinos. I mean there's just no yeah.

Speaker 1 (20:21):
Oh yeah, no, I hear it a convention. Oh winnie

Speaker 2 (20:55):
You ask why he doesn't wear pants.

Speaker 1 (20:57):
Yes, yeah, and it's because he doesn't have.

Speaker 2 (21:00):
To great see, but he does have to wear a shirt.

Speaker 1 (21:04):
That he does have to wear a shirt. Go figure that? Yeah? Yeah, yeah,
I well ticket doesn't wear a shirt. Or and the
fact that he's a cartoon character and a stuffed animal.

Speaker 2 (21:15):
There's that, Oh that too, I forgot.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
I'm off the hook. Yeah, it's not like I'm out there. No,
we don't want to even think about that. So great
the subject, yes, and moving on and moving on.

Speaker 3 (21:30):
So did you come to LA to pursue your career
as well or you went to New York first?

Speaker 2 (21:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (21:34):
I finished school in Boston and moved to New York
for one more year of training film and TV there,
and then for ten years I auditioned for, you know,
a bunch of indie films and and did a bunch
of indies no one's ever seen.

Speaker 2 (21:47):
As it goes, Yeah, it's great.

Speaker 4 (21:48):
Yeah, And you know, I did a little a little
boy voice his name was the Little Caesar and that
cartoon went nowhere sadly.

Speaker 2 (21:56):
So, but that was the first like, oh I like
this thing.

Speaker 1 (22:00):
But I was.

Speaker 4 (22:00):
I was doing mostly live action and a little bit
of voiceover for commercial work in Spanish because agents.

Speaker 2 (22:05):
Were like, oh, we need Spanish, and so I was
doing McDonald's and Burger King Radio. Yeah, but they it
didn't feel fun, you know.

Speaker 4 (22:14):
Then I eventually out of New York, I auditioned for
Overwatch and they're you know, made by Blizzard, and luckily
they were auditioning all over not.

Speaker 2 (22:22):
Just in LA.

Speaker 3 (22:23):
And that was in twenty ten.

Speaker 4 (22:26):
Actually, yeah, yeah, or twenty sixteen is when my character
came out.

Speaker 2 (22:31):
It's all blurring together, but.

Speaker 4 (22:35):
That was my first taste of, oh, a big character
in a video game that was worldwide explosive.

Speaker 3 (22:41):
Yeah, what did you know about Overwatch previous? Nothing.

Speaker 4 (22:45):
I didn't even google it because everything had code names
at the time, so I just assumed it didn't you know,
I would find nothing. I'm glad I didn't because I
would have probably been a little bit nervous or something.
But and I didn't know my character was important. All
the characters are in Overwatch.

Speaker 2 (22:59):
I just didn't know much.

Speaker 4 (23:01):
But when when my character came out, I was like, oh,
oh wow, And then Instagram and Twitter started hey are
you are you are?

Speaker 2 (23:07):
And then I started getting.

Speaker 4 (23:09):
Invited to conventions and that's when I was like, what
the heck kind of world have I tapped into?

Speaker 3 (23:12):
Here? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (23:13):
Yeah, it's crazy. And so now I've traveled the world.

Speaker 4 (23:16):
I mean, I've been to place that I never would
have imagined thanks to this video game, because there are
gamers all over that love that's true.

Speaker 2 (23:23):
Yeah, it's pretty crazy.

Speaker 3 (23:26):
Sure is That game was really like a phenomenon. It
seemed like out of nowhere because it was like there
was hero shooters before, but then all of a sudden,
I feel like this one like really pushed it into
the mainstream.

Speaker 4 (23:37):
I think they they did a really good job of
creating really amazing characters that were super diverse, super interesting.

Speaker 2 (23:46):
You know, they're from all different countries, all different races, they.

Speaker 4 (23:49):
All have really cool abilities, so you're not it doesn't
feel like a, oh.

Speaker 2 (23:53):
They're all military dudes.

Speaker 4 (23:54):
They're all they're all you know, and and so I
feel like people really felt represented, you know, for them.

Speaker 2 (24:00):
For a while, I was the only Hispanic character.

Speaker 4 (24:02):
On the game, so all the Latinos from everywhere, oh
my gosh, Oh my gosh, Sombra, you know, and and
it felt good because she wasn't all the negative stereotypes
that the industry has placed on us, you know, it
was it was all the opposite.

Speaker 2 (24:15):
So it felt really refreshing.

Speaker 1 (24:16):
Well that's good. Yeah, yeah, everybody was happy.

Speaker 2 (24:19):
Everybody was happy.

Speaker 1 (24:20):
All the food groups were represented.

Speaker 2 (24:22):
Right yeah.

Speaker 4 (24:23):
Yeah, And they keep representing them more and bringing out
more characters.

Speaker 2 (24:26):
You know.

Speaker 1 (24:27):
Oh that's great.

Speaker 4 (24:28):
And in video games too, they're also like all ages.
It doesn't you know, there's an older woman in our
in Overwatch and people love Anna.

Speaker 2 (24:35):
You know, she's not there's no ageism in there. It's
it's super cool.

Speaker 1 (24:38):
Yeah that's good. Yeah wow, And they who'd have thought
it right all those years ago. It's such a thing,
I mean, because they weren't even a thing when I
was first starting.

Speaker 3 (24:49):
Yeah, video games, I know, it kind of sucks to
see a conventions like I'm thinking specifically of oh, no,
I forget his name, good, but the actor who played
CJ and Grand Theft Auto son Andreas. You know, it
was just just like so polygonal, you know, polygonal. I
don't know how to say that word. I don't know,

(25:10):
but it was consisting of a lot of sharp edges,
and you know, the graphics aren't.

Speaker 2 (25:13):
What it was today.

Speaker 3 (25:14):
And seeing the contrast, you know, of the attention he
gets compared to you know, oh my god, I'm no,
yeah he is. Yeah, but I'm thinking of the black guy.

Speaker 2 (25:28):
From Walking from as well.

Speaker 3 (25:31):
Yeah, how do I not remember his name? Correct me?
Correct me in the comments anyway, But it was just
like to see the difference, and even of TC Carson,
you know, and my dad, you know, playing two iterations
of God of War, you know, just because it wasn't
really in that like cultural zeitgeist yet to see like
the difference very clearly, you know, how it's changed.

Speaker 4 (25:53):
I also think the timing of social media made it
something interesting because now we were accessible to comic congoers.

Speaker 2 (26:02):
Yes, they can reach out to us.

Speaker 4 (26:04):
We have a presence where we can share stories and
you know, film videos, and so they're like, oh, wait,
what this person is going to be in my city.

Speaker 2 (26:11):
I can go meet them. Otherwise we wouldn't have been
up with all of this.

Speaker 4 (26:15):
You know, it's very immediate, and I feel like that
that helped Overwatch for sure.

Speaker 3 (26:19):
Sean Fantino, that's his name.

Speaker 2 (26:21):
That's what I was going to say, Yes.

Speaker 1 (26:23):
There we go cut that out of the way. Yep,
we made it.

Speaker 2 (26:27):
Three am. You would have been like, dog, yeah, exactly, Yeah,
I got it.

Speaker 3 (26:31):
I remember if we could cut this out. But I
have to bring this up. So to my understanding, there
was like major advancements in three D technology because of
the fan fiction that people did about the characters in Overwatch.
Have you ever heard about this?

Speaker 1 (26:49):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (26:49):
I don't know about that. To tell me more, all right,
that sounds amazing.

Speaker 3 (26:53):
Yeah, it's like kind of risk, but like apparently, like
you know, these fans were like so obsessed with these
characters and they're attractive, you know, some of them, you know,
and they made some enhancements and you know, their their
bodily parts, and you know, posted it on internet.

Speaker 2 (27:10):
I do know that the.

Speaker 4 (27:11):
Segments websites had an uptick in overwatch porn.

Speaker 2 (27:18):
Yes, and they were very, very very popular.

Speaker 3 (27:21):
Yes, but apparently like the attention to detail that they
put in, you know, making the breasts jiggle and the
butts literally like advanced three D modeling based off like
hobby fan fiction.

Speaker 2 (27:33):
I did not work on those. I only voice make
the sounds.

Speaker 4 (27:39):
However, you know, the sounds of when we die could
be similar to other sounds, so they might have taken
those out of context and interesting.

Speaker 1 (27:47):
I'm just saying, yeah, okay, well I can kind of
see that.

Speaker 2 (27:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (27:51):
Well it wasn't it called that little death?

Speaker 5 (27:54):
Yeah? And very poetic terms in French.

Speaker 2 (27:58):
Isn't it?

Speaker 1 (27:58):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (27:58):
Yes?

Speaker 4 (27:59):
Yes, absolutely what an orgasm is? Supposedly well death?

Speaker 1 (28:04):
Try this at home, kids, or don't.

Speaker 2 (28:07):
All you thirteen year olds listening?

Speaker 1 (28:09):
Yes? Meanwhile, hey, ask.

Speaker 2 (28:12):
What your demographic?

Speaker 1 (28:13):
Yeah? I don't know, that's a good question.

Speaker 2 (28:16):
Should look it up.

Speaker 1 (28:17):
What is our demographic?

Speaker 3 (28:18):
It's you, It's no, it's eighteen to thirty five predominantly great. Yeah,
more on the upper side of the upper side of
that demographic. Yeah yeah, millennials like myself, Like I'm like
almost right in the middle of who listens to this? Yeah,
because we were kids and you.

Speaker 2 (28:32):
Know, right right who makes it?

Speaker 3 (28:33):
We liked all you know, and then.

Speaker 2 (28:34):
But Darkwing doc too, the are the flaps in the night?

Speaker 5 (28:40):
Thank you Goslin for bringing me up.

Speaker 1 (28:44):
Yes, well yeah, and dark Wings coming back. I don't
know if I mentioned that before of it eighteen times,
but now yeah, we shall see.

Speaker 2 (28:54):
Do you ever plan on retiring? Non?

Speaker 1 (28:56):
What's to retire from?

Speaker 4 (28:58):
That's what I you know, when I try and and
plan for my retirement. You know, they asked, when do
you want to retire? I'm like, honestly, I don't ever
want to retire, but for the sake of this exercise
and to see how much I should be saving every year,
you know, let's say like seventy nine.

Speaker 2 (29:12):
But no, I don't. I don't want to retire. I
want to work till I die.

Speaker 1 (29:15):
Hmm, yeah, it makes me yeah, yeah, well, you know
June for ay, God rest her. So she worked right
up till almost one hundred.

Speaker 2 (29:24):
Is she die in the booth?

Speaker 1 (29:26):
Not quite? Oh my gosh, well I think I think somebody,
Dick Cabot. There was a Dick Cabot was back in
the day, had and I can't think of who it was.
This poor actor was sitting out there and they went
to commercial, came back from commercial and he was, oh.

Speaker 2 (29:46):
My goodness, and he was dead.

Speaker 5 (29:48):
Oh my god, no way on TV.

Speaker 2 (29:51):
Holy cow.

Speaker 1 (29:52):
Yeah, and what a way to go. Yeah, I know,
I mean, what a way to go.

Speaker 2 (29:57):
But hey, that happens.

Speaker 1 (29:59):
It's going to you know, I mean, it's not a
bad way. Little public.

Speaker 2 (30:05):
Yeah, yeah, they liked being in the limelight.

Speaker 1 (30:08):
Yeah, well they well they are now now you can
google that and find out who it was. Gosh, I
feel terrible I should remember that. But it's not like
he's gonna call me up a bit.

Speaker 2 (30:20):
Hey, yeah, so.

Speaker 3 (30:22):
Do you play video games? I saw that you have
a Twitch channel.

Speaker 4 (30:24):
Correct, Oh, I have a Twitch, But that was a
pastime in the pandemic, I was actually interviewing voice actors
gotcha from other video games, just to connect with the
community and you know, ask them about their career and
their trajectory, and I loved learning and getting to know them,
and well.

Speaker 2 (30:43):
A it's a lot of work, So I commend you guys.

Speaker 4 (30:45):
And then you know, the world opened up again, and
so I started going to conventions in person, and I
really do like talking face to face rather than through
a screen. So you know, I did that for a
bit and I loved it. But now I'm back in
the real world.

Speaker 2 (31:00):
Yeah, yeah, but I do make a.

Speaker 3 (31:02):
Videos for hear that twitters he's not in the real world.

Speaker 2 (31:08):
Traveling, traveling the world to meet them face to face.

Speaker 4 (31:12):
But I do enjoy connecting with people face to face
more than you know.

Speaker 3 (31:19):
Well, it's nice that we have that accessibility, you know,
that we have that technology to be able to do that,
because sometimes I'm a big advocate for always doing interviews
in the studio, you know, but not everybody lives in
La right, you know. And like even then, you know,
we'll bring the podcast on the road, and like this
past weekend we were in Houston do a couple on
the road because it's just so much I mean, look,
you know, it's an easy setup, like it literally fits

(31:40):
in this bag, amazing, and it's just so much like
the energy that you get, you know, is just like
and that's like my I'm going to go on my
own tangent here for a second, but tell me how
you feel about this. But like auditioning, you know, I
miss so much being in the room for auditions and
like sharing that energy and like, you know, feeling like
I don't know, just something in your room as opposed

(32:03):
to like on screen. It's like, you know, in my opinion,
like one little you know, correction. You might do this
on an audition. You know, you're way too you know,
profiled on your audition. In real life, they would just
say look over here, and and you know, when they're
looking at the auditions like next, you know, they don't
know the technical part next, you know.

Speaker 4 (32:22):
Yeah, or even if you're doing a decent job, but
you just kind of didn't get the right tone and
you could have gotten a quick adjustment and it would
have been very different. Yeah, we're like, hey, this is
a comedy, not a drama. Let's start again. But yeah,
I feel like I miss I miss.

Speaker 3 (32:37):
Being able to Yeah, especially in New York. I mean,
if you were in New York, you know, I feel
like that's a big energy city and you were probably
going in person a lot.

Speaker 4 (32:46):
I would get nervous sometimes though, so I'll say, like
self tapes help sometimes you don't have to worry about
the person on the other side. But but I miss
being able to, yes, talk to the human and just
have us So yes, did somebody even look at my tape?

Speaker 2 (33:04):
We don't know anymore.

Speaker 4 (33:05):
And for voiceover particularly, I do like in person, I
hate not knowing you know what our MP three ended
up and how long they listen? And you know, sometimes
it feels like we're just sending stuff out into a void.

Speaker 1 (33:16):
So for sure, which agency are you with? Should we mask?

Speaker 2 (33:20):
Sure? I'm with Atlas. I'm very happy there we go,
take good care of me.

Speaker 1 (33:24):
Yeah, good to hear, good to hear. Nice folks over there.

Speaker 2 (33:27):
Yeah yeah.

Speaker 4 (33:28):
I started off with Abrams back in the day and
then it turned to A three and they you know
it just that was a New York.

Speaker 3 (33:35):
Puff of smoke.

Speaker 2 (33:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (33:38):
Yeah, So you're working going through alphabetically.

Speaker 2 (33:42):
Yeah, I'm trying. You know, I don't know whose is there?

Speaker 1 (33:44):
A B probably, but we won't talk about them yet.
They're not on deck yet. You'll have to wait exactly.

Speaker 2 (33:52):
And who are you? Who are you with? You need agents.
You do your own.

Speaker 1 (33:55):
That's true now. But Jeff danis my good old buddy
from from start at IPN. He's the he's the D
and dpn ah and yeah, and he keeps me busy, amazing.
He's a great guy. Yeah, and so fine. But you
can't have it just kidding, But.

Speaker 3 (34:16):
You've not only been a performer performer, but you've directed
as well and produced. If I'm not mistaken, tell me
if my research.

Speaker 2 (34:25):
Is correct, it could be misleading.

Speaker 4 (34:27):
I did my own web series on my YouTube channel
where I do a bunch of sketch comedy characters. And
I just filmed that on my own and I did
my own improv and then I edited it together and
I created these characters.

Speaker 2 (34:38):
So that was kind of one thing.

Speaker 4 (34:40):
And then I produced a film in the Pandemic and
I played the main character. But I didn't write or direct,
but I kind of found the funding and made it happen. Yeah,
so I didn't direct it, but I guess I directed
myself in my web series because nobody was helping me
do that.

Speaker 5 (34:56):
Did it on my own back then.

Speaker 1 (34:58):
Yeah, you had no choice, I would well.

Speaker 4 (35:00):
Pandemic wise, that one, that one started before the pandemic,
but it was really out of I felt like I
didn't have the funds to you know, produce a short
film and pay a DP and pay an editor and
pay you know. And so then I was like, oh,
what could I do on my own that doesn't cost anything,
but that I can create something? Yeah, then you just

(35:21):
go stale and cry yourself into puddles.

Speaker 2 (35:24):
So it was me trying to you know.

Speaker 4 (35:26):
And then and then I think out of that though,
that gave me some tools and characters to really get
my voiceover going, because I hadn't done a lot of
voiceover characters, but my sketch web series.

Speaker 2 (35:37):
You know, I got the manager. She kind of talks
like this, she's a Jewish lady for New York.

Speaker 4 (35:42):
And then I got this like Puerto rican and she
lived in New York, but like her parents are from
Puerto Rico, and so she had tool and stuff, and
so then all of these sort of you know, she's fun,
she's very fun, she's outspoken.

Speaker 2 (35:55):
And then I have this Mexican guy. His name is Roberto.
He used to work at a kitchen in New York City.

Speaker 4 (36:02):
Oh yeah, So I did some sketch characters that were
dudes but the reason was to kind of like expand
my characters. And and now sometimes I'll take those into
you know, animations, I'll be doing the I was on
a Disney show for two seasons and I play the
mom and she's Venezuelan and so she speaks in a
particular way. It's called Hamsterring Gretel Okay, same creator as right, yeah,

(36:26):
Dan Popenmeier, And it's based on a mix of his
ex wife and my friend's mom.

Speaker 2 (36:34):
So she's from Venezuela and she talks like this because
the accent is very heavy. But she's a very smart
woman and she has a deep voice down here.

Speaker 4 (36:41):
But if I'm going to play another character in that
in that episode, you know, I kind of pull it
out of my sketch bag.

Speaker 2 (36:46):
Like, oh, okay, is she Puerto Rican? Is she an
old lady? Is you know?

Speaker 1 (36:50):
So wow, that's pretty good. That's pretty darn amazing, you know.
You know, it's hard. I've often found like in how
many English accents, British accents can you do? And it's
here you're doing you know, Brazilian, then Venezuelan and then
Puerto Rican and Mexican. There's a lot of Latin there is.

(37:11):
There is a lot of Latinas out there. Yeah, yeah,
different ways to go.

Speaker 4 (37:16):
Well, at the beginning, you know, it just used to
say Latino and it didn't really specify. And for us Latinos,
we'd go and and for me, who's an Olish accent lover,
I'd be like, well.

Speaker 2 (37:26):
What do you want? Like Sophiabreta Godas very much like
this and she's from Colombia and it's a very particular accent.
Well then you got to.

Speaker 4 (37:33):
Know your weekend who doesn't speak Spanish, but she grew
up in New York, like Rosie Pavesi and whatever, and
so it's like and then there you got Chicanos and
they grew up in la and they have a little
different sing song. Yesay, so you're like, what do you want?
You know, now they're very specific and they're like Cuban
from Miami. You know, it's and we know the difference
because there are people, you know, I guess it's like

(37:54):
Southern not all Southern's the same. You gotta go it's
Mississippi versus Alabama versus Georgia.

Speaker 1 (37:59):
You know you can speak to that.

Speaker 3 (38:01):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah with the Ray Ray Ray.

Speaker 1 (38:07):
Uh yeah, Ray is a h he's he's a Cajun,
he's from from Dad.

Speaker 2 (38:13):
Yeah, he's a good time out dad.

Speaker 1 (38:16):
Yeah, you see that. That's good eating right down, you know.
And I was a deckhand and I just absorbed all that.
And I took a leatherhead was my uh teenage went
and Ninja turtle and he was an alligator and I
meet him sound like my footies, uh boat captain that well?

(38:37):
He named yeah Leo Lean. He was from Nepo and
that's just how he sounded. So I just stole him.
Him and my uncle Sam were kind of like kissing cousins,
but they never met.

Speaker 2 (38:48):
Oh boy.

Speaker 1 (38:50):
I put the two of them together. And I've done
that before. We've talked about it. If you put like
a character you don't do very well, with another character
you don't do very well. Put him together and you
have a brand new character that you do very well.
So do you do you pull that one well?

Speaker 3 (39:06):
I have.

Speaker 4 (39:06):
I have voice matched once upon a time j Lo.
But then you know, they asked me to audition for
you know, voice matching Cardi b and and Rosie Pres
and I don't do them well. But when I'm trying
a personal lips and then something happens. So so it's
a character, it's not rosy, it's just inspired by her.

Speaker 3 (39:26):
Wait, so what did they need or voice match CARDI
be for?

Speaker 4 (39:30):
You know, I can't remember, but maybe she was sometimes
maybe if she was in a documentary speaking and the
sound was off, they just don't want to bug her.

Speaker 2 (39:38):
I can't remember what it was for.

Speaker 4 (39:40):
And there was probably an NDA or something, so I
don't even know what it was. But I've I've tried
some voice matching and it oh. I once did a
Shakira voice match, but they just wanted to produce a
commercial kind of to show her what it would be
like if she was in it, and then she approved
and then she did it.

Speaker 1 (39:58):
Interesting, So you know that's interesting.

Speaker 4 (40:00):
Interesting, Yeah exactly, yeah, yeah yeah, And they pay us
to do that. And I did one for Sophia Bergara
and when I got there, they said, don't do it
too well because she might get offended.

Speaker 2 (40:11):
And I was like, so you want me to get it.

Speaker 4 (40:13):
I want me to do a media persphia and so
I just thought that was funny and she probably wouldn't
get offended, but you know, I so, I just I
can't remember what I did, but there's just a lot
of listening and imitating, you know.

Speaker 2 (40:23):
It's yeah, yeah, I admire people who voice match it.
It's really an amazing talent.

Speaker 3 (40:28):
Lifestyles are the rich and the famous. Just like you
have somebody do it for me and then all if
I like how I sound, you all do it for real.

Speaker 1 (40:36):
Yeah yeah, what a what a.

Speaker 3 (40:38):
Crazy what a crazy world.

Speaker 1 (40:40):
That's true. That's a nice thing to be able to demand.

Speaker 2 (42:10):
So you do sing?

Speaker 1 (42:11):
Yeah, well, oh yeah I sing. Yeah, you've heard me
sing a lot. You probably don't remember the California Raisins,
but I was. I was the lead singer for California Raisins.

Speaker 4 (42:19):
Heck yeah, good for you. Now, wow, that's something to
brag about, there you go.

Speaker 1 (42:25):
Yeah yeah, and uh and I didn't dance.

Speaker 3 (42:28):
I didn't have to dance. Who was the manager? Every
time you talk about the California Raisins, I'm always reminded
of that scene in Straight Out of Compton. There's a
scene in Straight out of Compton and he's trying to
sign n w A and you know, he's like this
little white Jewish guy, you know, he's young, and they're
like they're like laughing at him. They're like, he's like,

(42:48):
I produced the California Raisins. And then they're like the
California Raisins like gangster rappers. He's like, yeah, yeah, I was.
I was laughing too until the checks started clear and
they're like, what, like, you made this much money? Okay, yeah,
we'll sign with you.

Speaker 1 (43:05):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (43:05):
I was just curious if you, if you could put
a name to that actual person. Oh gosh, manager manager
of the California rais It.

Speaker 1 (43:14):
Was Brian Cummings, no relation, but he played oh god,
oh god, it's running the tip of my tongue. Not
not zero not. He was a what the hell was he?
He was a rudebag or something.

Speaker 2 (43:35):
I did not expect you to say that.

Speaker 1 (43:39):
There was raisins, and and you know everybody was a
vegetable or or or or a fruit. And the sweet
Currants where the girl backup singers. They were the three
of course, and they were the sweet currents were they
were cherries. I don't know if they were you know.

(44:00):
But anyway, but uh yeah, and if it comes to me,
wait a minute, oh good, talking about yourself.

Speaker 3 (44:13):
It'll come to you in a second.

Speaker 1 (44:14):
It will come to me, and I'll just turrette it out.

Speaker 2 (44:16):
I don't know, no rudy, the r.

Speaker 4 (44:19):
Rudy when we're talking about something random. Yeah, I don't
know if I've ever actually tasted a rude bega.

Speaker 1 (44:30):
I don't think it's a real thing. I think it's
just a funny name.

Speaker 2 (44:34):
No, it's a vegetable. It looks like a big potato
or something. I know, I thought it was.

Speaker 4 (44:40):
I thought people were mispronouncing it, like with a Boston accent.

Speaker 2 (44:43):
I thought it was rude baker and they were saying
it's a rudabaga at the end. It's a funny word,
you know.

Speaker 1 (44:48):
It is.

Speaker 3 (44:51):
So so Overwatch comes around, you get the part of Sombra.
Would you say that role changed your life? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (44:59):
Yeah, yeah yeah?

Speaker 3 (45:02):
What was like the first thing you realized about, like,
oh this is my new trajectory now.

Speaker 4 (45:06):
Well, you know, it really helped me during a dark
time because after Somber came out two months later, my
heart got shattered by a ten year partner. So I
was dealing with heartbreak but being invited all over the
world to meet people, and so I was going through.

Speaker 1 (45:24):
The biggest a great distraction.

Speaker 4 (45:26):
Holy cow, No, it got me out of bed. It
gave me joy, It gave me a new family. The
Overwatch voice actors are amazing people.

Speaker 2 (45:33):
I mean, Fred Tadashore is one of them. Deep Bradley Baker.
You know. I got to meet people I would never
would have met otherwise.

Speaker 4 (45:41):
Who Jen Hale gave me great advice. One of the
reasons I moved out was Jess Harnell and Jen Hale.
We met them in Australia at a conn and they
were like, why aren't you in LA, That's where the
voice acting is And I was like, I don't.

Speaker 2 (45:54):
Know, because I'm in New York trying to make it.

Speaker 4 (45:56):
They're like, move out and you'll do well in LA
And it was kind of that push I needed and.

Speaker 1 (46:01):
Good advice.

Speaker 4 (46:02):
Yeah, because I thought I was auditioning for a lot
of voice work in New York and then I got
here and realized, oh, this is where the really fun
stuff happens, you know, video games and animations. So so
meeting voice actors at cons was a huge thing. Meeting
the fans all over the world was amazing and helped
my soul.

Speaker 2 (46:20):
You know.

Speaker 4 (46:20):
It was so much love and excitement. And then moving
out just also gave me this whole new view of voiceover.
And I started working in animation more and then other
video games, and then I started expanding my characters and
my accents, and so now I'm a proper voice actor,
you know, and I do mostly voices rather than film

(46:41):
and TV, and and I love it.

Speaker 2 (46:43):
You know.

Speaker 4 (46:44):
They never used to know what to do with this
pale Latina because I didn't look Hispanic enough. But it
doesn't matter if you're just listening to me, you know,
it just sound I sound like what they wanted to
sound like. So so I get to do a lot
of cool characters. And another video game characters is raised
from Brazil.

Speaker 3 (47:02):
I was just about to bring that up.

Speaker 4 (47:04):
Yeah, And I had lived in Brazil for a little
bit doing an exchange program, so I learned Portuguese and
I know how to speak English with accent from Brazil.

Speaker 2 (47:14):
You know, Like, this is very different. You think it's
like Latino, but it's not. It's very Differentie. Sometimes if
I exaggerate you, it's like very weird. G because the chise.
Yeah it's very weird, man, but fine, it's weird.

Speaker 4 (47:26):
G Yeah, so so that can me raised and and
that was, you know, years after my heart had been
healing some more. And the crazy thing is that the
guy who directed me ended up being my husband.

Speaker 2 (47:40):
So Overwatch and Valorant really changed my life.

Speaker 3 (47:45):
Yeah, was another huge game.

Speaker 5 (47:47):
It was huge.

Speaker 2 (47:47):
It is it is huge.

Speaker 4 (47:48):
Esports right now are really big and and the Valerant
family is great in terms of the voice actors and
so yeah, yeah, those.

Speaker 3 (47:56):
Are both like really big competitive games. Hut like the
esports realm.

Speaker 4 (48:00):
Yeah, there's there's actual esports. You know, they happen in
Paris or Yeah.

Speaker 3 (48:05):
I went to that one. Have you ever been to
the one in the MGM Grand in Vegas. There's like
a massive sports yet I went in there one day.
I was just in Vegas and I just happened to
be staying at the MGM, and I was like, I
need to go check this out. Like I heard about it,
you know, being constructed. I was like, they built a
stadium and I go in there and I was just
like I get the chills thinking about it. I was like, oh,

(48:26):
it was empty when I went in there, you know,
I was just like found an open door and just
kind of let myself in explored around. But I was
just sitting there and like in the in the audience,
and I was like, this would be such a cool
experience to like wash the people up on stage, you know,
competitively playing everybody. Yeah, in the audience, Like what a
new phenomenon, you know, like and like so many people
are into it. Well.

Speaker 2 (48:46):
I went to one of the Valorist finals at the
Forum here. Oh yeah, people do huge.

Speaker 4 (48:51):
Concerts, and it was packed, and then it was the
opening ceremonies and there were fireworks inside.

Speaker 2 (48:57):
Like I couldn't believe it. It seemed like a like
a concert for you know, Beyonce. It was crazy yeah.

Speaker 3 (49:04):
Wow. Yeah, it's really fast.

Speaker 1 (49:05):
I can't imagine that, you know, and staring.

Speaker 3 (49:08):
At screens huge money on the line, huge, huge money
on the line.

Speaker 1 (49:12):
Wow.

Speaker 4 (49:12):
But then also like I'm mind boggled by the fact
that I go to Kuwait or Bahrain in the Middle East,
or the Philippines or Argentina and they play these games
all over It's you know, it's it's absolutely you know,
the worldwide.

Speaker 2 (49:29):
It's crazy.

Speaker 1 (49:30):
Yeah, And do you ever do them in the other
languages I.

Speaker 4 (49:33):
You know, Unfortunately I haven't yet. I would love to
dub myself. Sure, I'm working on a game where I
play a Colombian character now and I can't talk about
the game, but I'm Colombian.

Speaker 2 (49:46):
I would love to dub myself.

Speaker 1 (49:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (49:48):
I think they have dubbing teams in you know, in
local their localization teams do the things, and so I
they might not let me, but I would love that.

Speaker 1 (49:57):
Their money by charging you by you charge them double right.

Speaker 4 (50:01):
Exactly, I'm like, hey, And I've even said, like, I'll
do dubbing rates because dubbing does pay less, just because
I love I love being able to connect, especially with
the Hispanic audience, like the South American audience down there.
It's special because they play in Spanish and then they
you know, they get to hear me too.

Speaker 2 (50:19):
But who knows? Crossing fingers for it? Yeah.

Speaker 3 (50:21):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (50:23):
Have you ever been recognized by your voice, like at
a drive through or you know, you sound like.

Speaker 4 (50:30):
I in New York City, I'd be sitting at a
restaurant talking to somebody and then I'm sorry, oh my gosh,
I thought it was you. I heard you, And then
are you sombra and you know, at an airport or
the person doing security and.

Speaker 2 (50:43):
They're like, I want to picture with you, but they
don't let me because it's security, and I'm like, well,
let's go over there. I'll do it.

Speaker 1 (50:47):
Hi.

Speaker 4 (50:49):
So it's happened in very strange places, you know, but
I've never messed with them at a drive through.

Speaker 2 (50:54):
That would be super fun.

Speaker 1 (50:55):
Yeah, yeah, give it a try, you know, you'll be glad.

Speaker 2 (50:59):
You Please tell me which character did you do well.

Speaker 1 (51:02):
I've done dark Wing Duck and Don Karnage, and I
might have done Tigger once or twice a long time ago.
I haven't done it in years.

Speaker 2 (51:10):
And did they go Holy cow? Or were they like, sir,
I'll give you your order again next window.

Speaker 1 (51:14):
Yeah, that pretty much that. Yeah, that's that's not bad. Okay. Anyway,
So what do you want?

Speaker 3 (51:21):
You know, Well, I could tell a story about the
very first time I met you. When I was in college.
The very first time I met you, you had offered
I had this, like I don't know, some some project
for like one of my classes, and it was like apprenticeship.
I altered it with like the head of my department.
I was like, hey, like I have this opportunity to
go in like sit in on a recording session with

(51:42):
Jim Cummings, Like could I write a report about that
instead of whatever we're doing. He's like, yeah, of course,
And so I go in and we went to lunch beforehand.
I don't know if you remember this, M p F
changs and were sitting We were sitting in there, and
I guess you were feeling in the mood that day.
Maybe you wanted to, you know, show off to me
or something.

Speaker 1 (52:00):
Who knows, yeah, probably, and you.

Speaker 3 (52:01):
You ordered as Tigger and Pooh and like, I've never
seen a waitress like go from so professional to like
like melts. But yeah, I was just like, you know,
I was giddy myself. You know, I'd never heard Jim
do it in person, because you ordered.

Speaker 2 (52:18):
For yourself and then for him as Tigger.

Speaker 3 (52:20):
Yeah you never know sure, but but yeah, it was
just funny like seeing that transfer and of course that
conventions it was the same thing, but seeing that in
like a restaurant set of situation, it's like completely different
because you don't even for sure if they're going to
know the voice. I mean, odds are poo and Tiger,
but yeah, you never really.

Speaker 1 (52:36):
Know yeah, Well, it's a I thought about it many times,
and it's it just transports people back to being five.
And everybody had a good time when they were five. Yeah,
I think, I hope you know. And uh, and my
buddy just don't know. He's married now, happily married. Yeah,
but he would, we would, you know, we'd be at

(52:56):
a convention, be at a restaurant and goes, will you
whisper something from Winning the Pooh in her air and
say something nice about me? And I said sure, and
so and so I would whisper something in I would
whisper something nice, nice p G PG maybe PG thirteen. Okay,

(53:18):
all ready, no, I'm kidding. I'm kidding. I'm kidding. And
they would would sit there to go. Yeah, and just
as whenever they could sit there, go it's a good sign.
So I said, that's hilarious, okay. And he had his
reasons and I won't be telling you. I won't be
telling you that the way he elaborated, but it was

(53:39):
a good sign.

Speaker 2 (53:40):
Good, good, good. I'm so happy that.

Speaker 1 (53:42):
I'm so happy to know that I'm a wingman. Yes,
I'm a good wing man.

Speaker 3 (53:47):
We mentioned before on the podcast.

Speaker 4 (53:51):
Yes, it's just that was just I recall a few
dinners at cons. You know, I'd be at the far
end of the table, but I'd hear you doing dirty
Pooh over there, very funny dirty pooh.

Speaker 1 (54:04):
That just doesn't sound right, does it. It sounds like
something that you get with a six month old.

Speaker 2 (54:13):
That too, Yeah, yeah, that too.

Speaker 1 (54:14):
Yeah, we've really classed up this podcast. I hope you
guys are appreciating the efforts we're going to to really
class it up.

Speaker 2 (54:25):
My whole family loves what of the Pooh? And now
they're going to go, oh, man, you just killed it
for me.

Speaker 4 (54:29):
Oh gosh, Well, actually no, I did want to share.
Growing up, my my grandma was so organized and always
planning stuff, so she her friends called her Rabbit. And
then my my aunt was Owl because she was so
smart and wise. And our uncle Jamie, he was a
little chubby, so he was Pooh. And then my other

(54:52):
my other aunt was you know, tiny and fairer, and
so she was piglet.

Speaker 1 (54:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (54:59):
And then currently when my mom came around, they called
her Alexander Beatle. Have you heard of Alexander? I looked
it up.

Speaker 2 (55:06):
It was it was a little tiny beetle in one
of the books.

Speaker 1 (55:12):
A a Miln book.

Speaker 5 (55:13):
Yes, Pooh Pooh series.

Speaker 4 (55:15):
Yeah, it's not a character that's very well known. But
because she was the smallest and she came along later
than she was, I never.

Speaker 1 (55:22):
Even heard Alexander Beadle.

Speaker 4 (55:25):
And then I googled it today just to make sure.
I'm like, does this thing really exist? Or do they
make it up to make my mom feel better?

Speaker 1 (55:29):
No?

Speaker 2 (55:30):
It exists.

Speaker 1 (55:30):
Yeah, well yeah, I'm gonna have to check that out.
So got my marching orders now?

Speaker 3 (56:14):
All right? We like to play this game on this podcast.
I don't know if you're familiar with it. I don't
know how much research you've done on us, but it's
a voice swap game, and so how it works if
you're willing to play.

Speaker 2 (56:25):
I'm absolutely willing to play.

Speaker 3 (56:26):
How it works is Jim will say one of his
lines of one of his characters, say Pooh or Tigger,
dark Wing, et cetera, et cetera, and then you'll say
that same line verbatim, but in your character voice. So
say Pooh and Sombra, and then we'll go backwards and
Sombra and Pooh and et cetera. We'll do it a
couple of times if you're if.

Speaker 2 (56:43):
You're up, swore, do the Pooh line in my somber voice.

Speaker 3 (56:45):
Yes, great, Yes, all right, wait, but let's think. Let's
think here, because we need to get like a variety
of your characters. Yea, you know we'll hear about it.
You know we'll hear about it if we don't do
a variety of your character. Yeah, that's right, that's yes
from the powers that be. Yes, how about this one
we haven't done in a while.

Speaker 1 (57:03):
Yeah, how about Don Carnage?

Speaker 3 (57:05):
About Don Carnage from.

Speaker 1 (57:07):
Chippadale Rescue Rangers, And I feel that it was vaguely
from Cora were great, but hard to say where he
was from that he was definitely a Caribbean sort of
a groovy guy. You'll know something, if I was not me,
I would envy you because you get to meet me.

Speaker 2 (57:32):
That's a great line. And so would say that.

Speaker 1 (57:34):
And I actually did say that in the car too.

Speaker 2 (57:38):
Oh my gosh, did you make that line up? Oh
my god?

Speaker 4 (57:41):
Okay, even more brilliant. I'm gonna try and get it.
But Sombra is pretty bad ass. So she would say,
you know, if I wasn't me, I would want to
be you because I I would envy you because.

Speaker 2 (57:54):
You would get to meet me.

Speaker 1 (57:56):
That's the one.

Speaker 4 (57:56):
But now I started doing something like that Puss in boots. No, wait,
if I if I stray that again, if I was you.

Speaker 1 (58:04):
Know something, if I was not already me, I would
envy you because you get to meet me.

Speaker 2 (58:14):
Okay, you know, if I wasn't already me, I would
envy you because you would get to meet me.

Speaker 1 (58:22):
There you go, yes, O man, I love that one.

Speaker 2 (58:25):
Just humble statement, real humble, yeah, yeah, yeah, very humble.

Speaker 1 (58:30):
Okay, Now I was going to give you.

Speaker 4 (58:31):
A Spanish one, but that's Sombra's main one, but let's
do another one. She says, I would like to say
it was nice working with you, but it wasn't.

Speaker 1 (58:42):
That's pretty good. That that calls so I think for
dark Wing. I think so I would like to say
that it was nice working with you, but it wasn't.

Speaker 3 (58:55):
He would for sure to say something like that.

Speaker 1 (58:57):
Yeah, that that's very very dark Wing. That's pretty good. Well,
you're gonna you've just secured yourself a guest starring world Missy.
Oh my gosh, please if we ever started up waiting
by the way, hint, hint, hint, what time is it? Yeah,
come on, it's dark en duck.

Speaker 3 (59:15):
How about we do one more back and forth?

Speaker 2 (59:16):
Oh yeah, no, we can do a lot more. Are
you kidding? Oh yeah, perfect, But I'm gonna let him
start always all.

Speaker 1 (59:21):
Right, fine, okay, let's see then.

Speaker 3 (59:27):

Don't make me repent myself. Yes, you know, go ahead
and make me.

Speaker 4 (01:00:11):
I was thinking, I have a raised one that I
feel like would be really sweet for Pooh. She she
is very community oriented. She's like she's maternal even though
she's badass.

Speaker 2 (01:00:22):
And she goes, oh, surrounded by me a familia, we
won't lose.

Speaker 1 (01:00:29):
Oh, surrounded by me a familia. We want to.

great today. Oh well I didn't.

Speaker 2 (01:01:09):
That's animation.

Speaker 4 (01:01:10):
When you add a little bit of German, it's like
all elegant and stuff or like a little bit eccentric,
you know, like it's not that thing like, oh, we're
going to a dance party in Berlin, you.

Speaker 2 (01:01:19):
Know like that.

Bump into each other at comic cons and do that.

Make fans happy with our voices.

Speaker 3 (01:05:55):
Yeah. What conventions do you have coming up? Do you
have any? No?

Speaker 2 (01:05:58):
I just finished my last one that was up for
this year, so I'm hoping.

Speaker 3 (01:06:04):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, But you have a YouTube channel. People
can follow you there. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:06:08):
Yes, I'm going to be putting more content on their YouTube.
Yeah yeah, it's it's been a lot of video game stuff,
interviewing actors and doing voice swaps, you know, a lot
of fun. But it's going to be a little bit
more active now TikTok and YouTube and and stuff, so
always updating stuff there.

Speaker 3 (01:06:28):
It's a lot of effort, but I can you know,
I'm not to speak for you, but I mean just
in the in the two years that we've been doing
this podcast. It translates into other things too, you know,
like people at conventions and spreading the word. I mean,
there's so many times where I've been at a convention
with you and people were like, I wouldn't have known
you were here without TikTok or without blah blah blah.

Speaker 1 (01:06:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:06:46):
Yeah, and then you know, we we've told these stories
so many times at panels at comic cons.

Speaker 2 (01:06:50):
We think, oh, everyone.

Speaker 4 (01:06:51):
Knows that story, but millions of people haven't heard the stories.

Speaker 2 (01:06:56):
So if it's on TikTok under your channel, you know,
it's yeah, it's a pret like you can.

Speaker 1 (01:07:01):
Make up stuff that from the past to change it.
It's like, well that's how it happened. You know, you're
kind of stuck with the facts. So if you're recounting something,
it's got to be the you know, from real memory.
Well you could be like stuff up.

Speaker 3 (01:07:14):
You could be like Jamie Foxx and just like have
you ever seen that oh.

Speaker 2 (01:07:18):
Make stuff up?

Speaker 3 (01:07:19):
Oh yeah, oh yeah, like those show Like I don't know,
but he's a funny guy. He's talking like we tell
it stories and then like people will show clips from
like the same story that he told on different talk shows,
and then there's always like like he'll tell a story
about like an actor that he was working with, but
like they had passed away, like four years before he's
telling the story took place, or like oh god, it's

(01:07:41):
like hold on, if you really like do research, like
you can poke a hole in any one of his stories. Hilarious. Man. Yeah,
but he's an entertainer. I think he'll take the liberties
to be more entertaining than factuals.

Speaker 4 (01:07:55):
You know, sometimes you remember things in a weird way
and then you start adding and subtracting stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:08:00):
I'm moments were all. Tell my sister, like you remember
that time when I did this when we were kids.

Speaker 4 (01:08:03):
She's like, you didn't do it. I did it, and
I'll be like, no, I did it, and then you go, wow,
the memory is a crazy thing, you know. Yeah, yeah,
not that that's what is happening there.

Speaker 2 (01:08:13):
I don't know, but it's funny how.

Speaker 3 (01:08:15):
We kind of will never know. I don't even know. Yeah, yeah,
we'll never know.

Speaker 1 (01:08:19):
