What No, I want to start from the start, 30 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 1: from the beginning. I mean, I guess a good place 31 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: to start. What is the beginning? That's well, that's what 32 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 1: we're gonna have to ask you. So where what what 33 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 1: is the beginning? How did you start in this business 34 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 1: of show? Well, you know, I am not from the 35 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 1: My family was not a Hollywood family, like my parents 36 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 1: are French Tunisia North Africans used who migrated here in 37 00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 1: a trailer, and so I didn't I wasn't raised in 38 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 1: a family where entertainment was in our wheelhouse. My parents 39 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 1: just kind of tried to build up their little company. 40 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 1: They build fences for a living in window grills, which 41 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 1: we need now and and so then I didn't know 42 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 1: anything about like when I came around. My mother just 43 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:16,359 Speaker 1: was like, you're the one, You're the little magic theme. 44 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 1: She had like an instinct. Does she be into it? 45 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: I think she just yeah, I think she saw something 46 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 1: in the realm of like, but allur kids really artistic. 47 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:27,519 Speaker 1: I have there's five of us, five beds and sisters. 48 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:29,640 Speaker 1: I was the baby. But she would just like go 49 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 1: to a yard sale and bring crazy instruments home or 50 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,080 Speaker 1: by like just weird things and throw them in the 51 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:36,799 Speaker 1: house and one of us or the other would pick 52 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: it up and start playing or you know, everybody learned 53 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,920 Speaker 1: how to play everything. None of us were schooled at it. 54 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: And then my sister is a painter. She was the 55 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 1: only like real painter, went to college master degree in painting. 56 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 1: All the rest of us were just like farm animals. 57 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 1: We just picked up an old dirty guitar and we 58 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:57,959 Speaker 1: just like we just learned how to do things. So 59 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 1: I think for me, I just learned art because I 60 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,640 Speaker 1: didn't have like I wasn't good with school. It was 61 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:07,519 Speaker 1: like it was original. Where did your question originated at that? 62 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 1: What was where did it start? Yeah? Yeah, I mean, 63 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 1: but that seems like where then just started them with 64 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 1: your family? And would you guys all jam together, just 65 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:16,800 Speaker 1: do some kind of music. Or we had like a 66 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 1: little I had a band with my brother called Overman 67 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 1: that was like back in the eighties when I was 68 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:24,920 Speaker 1: like wearing spandex leopard and you know, yeah, so we 69 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,639 Speaker 1: just do things together. Or my one brother would play 70 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 1: bluegrass and the other brother would play something else. So 71 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:31,959 Speaker 1: we just music was part of our thing. That was 72 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 1: like my language. To like music was easy for me. 73 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: But what happened is I developed my voice because of music, 74 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 1: because singing was such a big thing. Because acting, though 75 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 1: I had an acting agent, UM scared me because it 76 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 1: was very much about like how you looked and how 77 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: fake you could be sometimes and I didn't can do it, 78 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: and so I felt awkward with that. But music was 79 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 1: like spoke to me. I didn't have to um, I 80 00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 1: have to be somebody else at that point. Later in 81 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: life I learned him to like being someone else. But 82 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 1: I like it because I like how you can tap 83 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 1: into different things in people by things you connect to 84 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 1: in yourself, and so yeah, everything just everything becomes a 85 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 1: lot more complex in my brain about why I do art, 86 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: but it's very deep and beautiful for me, all of it. 87 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: So then did you expect to be a musician? I mean, 88 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 1: was that the path originally was like, Yeah, I'm gonna 89 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do music. I think I always thought I 90 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 1: was gonna be a huge pop star, like forever, and 91 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,479 Speaker 1: even in my choir teacher back in high school was like, 92 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 1: when they tell you at the end of the year 93 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: what they think you're gonna be. He was like, you're 94 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:30,600 Speaker 1: gonna be a huge pop star. And I was like, 95 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 1: he knows what's up. And and then but I never 96 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 1: would have thought like the voiceover thing was sort of 97 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 1: a gift from the goose that laid the golden egg. 98 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,720 Speaker 1: Like that was like, I here's the magic. Okay. So 99 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,479 Speaker 1: one day, out of the blue, this guy calls me, 100 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 1: who I knew as a producer, and he's like, do 101 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 1: you want to do a musical. It's called Tansy and 102 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 1: we've had it in on Broadway and it was being 103 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:59,360 Speaker 1: done on Broadway by Deborah Harry and and we need 104 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 1: a woman who is petite, who can sing, who's also 105 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: physically fit. And it was on Broadway and they were like, 106 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 1: and they said it folded on Broadway after three days. 107 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:10,919 Speaker 1: Who knows why three days? Yeah, after three days. So 108 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 1: that means all the ships and all the all the 109 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 1: sets and all the wardrobes and everything was already indentity. 110 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,840 Speaker 1: And they called this producer called and goes, G do 111 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: you want to do this musical? And they're shipping the 112 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 1: sets to l A. And I was like all I 113 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 1: wanted to do was sing. I was like, it's a musical, 114 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 1: can I Is there a band? And they're like, yeah, 115 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 1: there's a full on band. I'm like, do I have 116 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 1: to put the band memories together? And they're like no. 117 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 1: And I was like do I have to pay for 118 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: the band members? And they're like no, because I didn't 119 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,479 Speaker 1: have you know. I was like that was a self starter. Yeah, 120 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 1: and I didn't have the money and then to put 121 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,359 Speaker 1: the band together and pay everybody. But I wanted to 122 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,360 Speaker 1: be singing. So it was like my heart was so 123 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 1: connected to the music that I said, it's a musical, 124 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,040 Speaker 1: I'll do it. I'll do it. That was the reason 125 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 1: why I said yes to the play because I just 126 00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:01,279 Speaker 1: love singing so much. It's so it connects me something 127 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 1: so deep. And so then I get start rehearsing and 128 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 1: then they tell me where you're gonna be a female 129 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:07,599 Speaker 1: wrestler don't. I had to learn how to be a 130 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 1: female wrestler like headmayor, flying headmarrors, irish whips, the belly flowers, 131 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,919 Speaker 1: like the whole thing in a wrestling ring. So and 132 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 1: now I had to learn this crap. So I had 133 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 1: to train with this female wrestler, first world female Champion, 134 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 1: Wrestler of the World, and then state champion at the time. 135 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 1: So then they started training me, and I was like, ah, 136 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 1: hell no this, I'm sorry, this stuff is gonna hurt 137 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: my back. I was like scared and I don't like 138 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 1: to I was like, oh my god, this is so hard. 139 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 1: I'm not good at this. And every day I'd be like, 140 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:38,280 Speaker 1: I don't know if I could do this, but I 141 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:39,600 Speaker 1: really want to sing. But I don't know if we 142 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,720 Speaker 1: could do this, but I really want to sing. And 143 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 1: and then I pushed myself and then I was able 144 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,719 Speaker 1: to do this wrestling and I learned this craft. And 145 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 1: then the play became like this big hit and won 146 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 1: all these awards and moved to the Roxy theater and 147 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 1: became a pay theater thing, and and out of that play, 148 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 1: I ended up getting a major record deal, and out 149 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: of that play, I ended up falling in love with 150 00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: someone who was really amazing, and out of that play, 151 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 1: I just everything happened. And so the message of that 152 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: was I just kept following what I love so much, 153 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 1: I saying, I just want to sing. It wasn't like 154 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 1: I want to do the player when I act, It 155 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 1: was none of that. Actually was like, I just want 156 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 1: to sing. That was the golden nugget that led me 157 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 1: to the thing that broke my whole career because then 158 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 1: at that particular play called Tansy where I sang in it, 159 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 1: I got a major record deal, so I was signed 160 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 1: A and M Records. I got um I fell in love, 161 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,960 Speaker 1: like I said, And some guy handed me a card 162 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 1: and said, you're really good with your voice, you know, 163 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 1: because in the play I had to be a different 164 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 1: voice each round of the wrestling match.

I was doing eight series a week. 252 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 1: I was like Jungle Cobs, but gear I was like, 253 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 1: can we do Louis? I was she goes for the 254 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 1: intellectual type, just myself, you Louis.

So that's what I try to tell people. 260 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:45,240 Speaker 1: So would you say that you were raised spiritual, like 261 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 1: or were you spiritual all this process or what was 262 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 1: it that spoke to you to say like, okay, like 263 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 1: I am going to honor this guy and go and 264 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 1: do this because you did it. I think it was, Um, 265 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 1: I didn't know that you always want to be respectful 266 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 1: to people, kind of respectful and he was reaching out 267 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 1: to me about something, and I could have been like, no, 268 00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 1: I'm a pop singer because I was touring and yeah, 269 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 1: you'd a deal. But I think that part of me 270 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: that always says stay open, be teachable, always be teachable. 271 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 1: Where are you hearing them from? Is that like a 272 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 1: family thing? Did your mom or dad teaches to you? Not? Really? 273 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 1: I think my experience very much. I think I just 274 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 1: like I think when you come from a good place 275 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 1: and you're coming from a snobby place or um, too 276 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: cool for school place, that you're you're you're you're more 277 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 1: open in that respect, And I just think it came 278 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 1: from like he reached out to me. He was a 279 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 1: respectful guy. He saw something in me. I need to 280 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:41,200 Speaker 1: be respectful and check it out. So it's really as 281 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 1: simple as that. But I think that I think it's 282 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 1: always teachable, You're you're the people that are more open 283 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,080 Speaker 1: and saying yes to things are usually more successful in 284 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 1: life than the people that are that say know to 285 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 1: things because you never know where it's going to take you. 286 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,079 Speaker 1: So it's yeah, I'll give it a try, like you said, 287 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,320 Speaker 1: and brings you to the whole new career. We don't 288 00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 1: always know everything like we think we do, and sometimes 289 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 1: we think we do. Leads you to a very limited 290 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 1: path like sometimes be open, check that out. And that 291 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 1: is the thing I really refer to a lot, Like 292 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 1: I did a voice over seminar and I talked part 293 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,719 Speaker 1: of the teaching was be be teachable and be like 294 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 1: listen for the off shoots, because the offshoots are like 295 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:18,839 Speaker 1: the universe saying to you, I'm gonna get you that 296 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: thing you love, but it's you're gonna go this way first, 297 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: and so success is not linear. It's not linear, and 298 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,319 Speaker 1: like you have a destiny no matter what, so you 299 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 1: might as well be you know, there's all kinds of 300 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 1: ways you could try things and you never know right 301 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 1: and that particular yes, And it's like I read later 302 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 1: in life, I mean, I've always been a grower, like 303 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:38,840 Speaker 1: I always want to like learn. I want to learn 304 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 1: how to be comfortable in my skin, because life can 305 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: be art. Life is purely uncomfortable, serious, uncomfortable and scary 306 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:48,960 Speaker 1: and challenging. And you know, if you're not working on 307 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 1: your spiritual life, especially in an entertainment career, which can 308 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 1: bring you up and knock you down and bring you 309 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 1: up and knock you down, which I've had many ups 310 00:13:55,520 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 1: and downs. Yeah, you get it. That's my other podcast, Horrible. 311 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 1: It's called if You're what, it's called vulnerablenable. Yeah, so yeah, 312 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 1: I mean I just think if you don't really daily 313 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 1: and I do for my kids, like my mission is 314 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 1: to constantly teach my daughters who were young adults, like 315 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 1: keep growing. Like this breakup with his boyfriend is about 316 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 1: where was it making you joyful? And what was not 317 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 1: making you happy? And if it's not making you happy 318 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 1: more than it's making you happy, then it's time for 319 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 1: you to really check check it out, you know. And 320 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 1: so and sometimes people stay and not happy so long 321 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 1: that they start to think they're depressed, and they start 322 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 1: to think they're there need to do drugs, so they 323 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 1: need to drink liquor all the time because they're so 324 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 1: unhappy and really what it is is what am I 325 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 1: not looking at over there that's making me unhappy?

There's a number of films we got 338 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 1: to get into. However, you said something really interesting when 339 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 1: it came to seeing your first kind of animatic or 340 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:31,600 Speaker 1: claymation of what was going to happen on Ruggrass. You said, Oh, 341 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 1: this reminds me of the voice I used to do 342 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 1: when I was a kid. So were you doing voices 343 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: the whole time you were growing up? I mean as 344 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 1: a little kid, were you just doing multiple voices? Just 345 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 1: with your friends. Yes I was. I was doing like 346 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 1: imitating little uh little kids voices. I would like, my 347 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 1: daughter does that, and that that's what I say. Like 348 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 1: that was like the beginning seeds of like that's why 349 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 1: I say, like, watch your children, because they're showing you 350 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 1: things about who they are and what they can do, 351 00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 1: even if it's a weird thing, like I'd always say, 352 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: like jokingly people are double joint in or they flipped there, 353 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 1: I lived inside out or whatever the weird trick is. 354 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 1: I'm like, watch what your children are doing, because that 355 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 1: is their gift. Like my nephew Um used to go 356 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 1: through the trash bins in the alleys and he would 357 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:18,640 Speaker 1: bring home like disgusting, dirty, like weird things like meddle 358 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:22,360 Speaker 1: weird thing with rust and worms and bugs and a 359 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 1: weird little tire and we would be like, Robin, you 360 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,240 Speaker 1: can't put that in the house, Like you just can't. 361 00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 1: And and you know, he ended up being like a 362 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 1: very rare like he builds things for music videos and 363 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 1: movies of like a weird goggle thing with a weird 364 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 1: futuristic thing. Like he ended up being like a one 365 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 1: of the designer. It's like a production designer. He has 366 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,000 Speaker 1: a whole warehouse thing that he works in and people 367 00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:48,320 Speaker 1: hire him to do this, and it's like we take 368 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 1: our kids sometimes and we were like, no, you're gonna 369 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 1: fall family to do. I'm guilty of it. Honestly, I'm 370 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 1: guilty of it. My daughter does these voices too, sometimes 371 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 1: not all the time, but like she will do it, 372 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 1: and I've seen her do it, and there's been times 373 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 1: when I said no, that you need to pronounce it clearer, 374 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,920 Speaker 1: and I'm beating musself all up, but I'm learning something. 375 00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 1: This is a teachable moment. And also because sometimes little kids. 376 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,639 Speaker 1: The reason why I booked Rugrats was because my Tommy 377 00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 1: Pickles talks very broken and very unclear. He's like, oh, yeah, 378 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 1: you know my mom if she's really benful, you know, 379 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,480 Speaker 1: like everything is weird and real and sometimes not clear. 380 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:30,640 Speaker 1: And that's why they like my voice for that job. 381 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,120 Speaker 1: And the beauty of kids voices is that they're not 382 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 1: perfect as we like, you know. So yeah, that's what 383 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:39,120 Speaker 1: makes you that's a in a in a separate part 384 00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:40,919 Speaker 1: of the conversation too, but like that's what makes her 385 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 1: such a great voice over actor in my opinion. Two 386 00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 1: is that she's so authentically a child. Oh yeah. One 387 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:48,920 Speaker 1: of the things we constantly hit on the show, we 388 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,680 Speaker 1: talk about it's our mantra. You and I talk about 389 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 1: this all the time is there is a very big 390 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 1: difference between child ish and childlike. So something very childlike 391 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:02,199 Speaker 1: about you that is so uh you know, it's so 392 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,239 Speaker 1: it's so attractive in the industry, especially when it comes 393 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,440 Speaker 1: to animation, because you can put your mind in the 394 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:08,440 Speaker 1: in the mind of a child, you can become a 395 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:11,560 Speaker 1: child again, child ish, not good, childlike, something that should 396 00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:14,679 Speaker 1: never be lost and something that is rewarded in our 397 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 1: side of the industry here, especially when it comes to animation. 398 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 1: So I think so perfectly the embodiment of incredible, the 399 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:23,959 Speaker 1: combination of the wisdom and childlike is pretty awesome. Well, 400 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 1: and so what I've what I found really interesting too, 401 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:29,399 Speaker 1: is that you had a very adult you know, film 402 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 1: careers were although I guess with Peewee's playouts that oh 403 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 1: you just said one out loud. Okay, we're jumping right 404 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:41,240 Speaker 1: in Big Adventure. Yes, I grew up with this movie 405 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:45,239 Speaker 1: as well. I obsessed over how beautiful you were, and 406 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:48,159 Speaker 1: but it was also just a great film all the 407 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 1: way around. Talk about childlike. Yes, there was the very 408 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:55,480 Speaker 1: few films even now to this day can kids sit 409 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 1: down and watch an adult sit down and watch and 410 00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:00,680 Speaker 1: get two completely different experiences but both enjoy it immensely. 411 00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:04,119 Speaker 1: And certainly at that time there wasn't like the Nickelodeon 412 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:06,960 Speaker 1: initiative and Disney was even doing programming, so it wasn't 413 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 1: like that concept of like, yeah, we need this, this 414 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 1: needs to happen. But he was movie. I remember watching 415 00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 1: that family and he was he brought a whole thing 416 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,439 Speaker 1: and then Tim Burton was found from that. That was 417 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 1: his first big feature films. You know what I mean. 418 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 1: It was a very iconic. Now it's like thirty something 419 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:25,639 Speaker 1: years old, but it's still like cute. But each I 420 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,240 Speaker 1: gotta think that you must know so many amazing people 421 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 1: in this industry. I mean, I love that you grew 422 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:32,679 Speaker 1: up here. And see that's the thing is like I 423 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,399 Speaker 1: know that I know people who I grew up in 424 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,040 Speaker 1: New York, and like I'll talk to other people who 425 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 1: started young in the business and they're like, oh, yeah, 426 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 1: we started in New York and there's always a little 427 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:44,680 Speaker 1: bit of jadedness. But we were both started in Connecticut 428 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:46,280 Speaker 1: and then in New York and we'll look at each 429 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 1: other and be like that we've done down in the 430 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:53,240 Speaker 1: train and then we meet people are like I grew 431 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,920 Speaker 1: up in California and it's such a different vibe.

I'm not comfortable. I'm not comfortable, 472 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:52,440 Speaker 1: and soone happens is half my personality goes away. And 473 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 1: so you know, that's why sometimes I'll deliberately wear something 474 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 1: like I went to a dinner party with girlfriends and 475 00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 1: they were all wearing fancy dresses and I yels and 476 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 1: I was like wearing something like this yeah and a 477 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,159 Speaker 1: big bulky sweater. And I had more fun than her 478 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 1: because I'm not trapped in this weird like yeah, because 479 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:10,360 Speaker 1: you're in touch with her and her child. My wife 480 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:12,000 Speaker 1: will do something like that. My wife will will will 481 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:13,520 Speaker 1: say we're going out to dinner, and she'll put on 482 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 1: her shoes and she'll go the stop watches started, and 483 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 1: I go, what do you mean. She's like, because you 484 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:19,639 Speaker 1: get you have a finite amount of time in these 485 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:22,800 Speaker 1: shoes before their are so she's like, it's started, let's go. 486 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 1: And it's like, all right what she does at the time, 487 00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 1: but she's like, I want to put on high heels tonight, 488 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,200 Speaker 1: and then she does looked me like the clock has begun. 489 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:39,680 Speaker 1: And honestly, that's not to discourage women who who find themselves, 490 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:43,359 Speaker 1: because there are young girls that grow up wanting to 491 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:46,359 Speaker 1: wear the high heels because I have two daughters. I 492 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 1: have a five year old and I have one that 493 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 1: just turned three.

She's a bubbles. 496 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:00,639 Speaker 1: She's a bubbles, and my other one is is a 497 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:05,160 Speaker 1: it's not a bubbles. The other two they're usually opposite, 498 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:08,479 Speaker 1: total opposite. They are. They really are opposite. And she um, 499 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:11,479 Speaker 1: she likes science.

And that's weird 505 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 1: for me and my husband, who are both artists, and 506 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 1: were like, well, cool, she's going to be a scientist. 507 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:38,919 Speaker 1: That's pretty great. It's like the bulb of a flower 508 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,200 Speaker 1: and you go into a garden or nursery and there's 509 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 1: like little round balls their bulbs for flowers, and then 510 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:46,639 Speaker 1: you pick them up and then you plant them and 511 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,160 Speaker 1: you don't know what kind of flowers. Your job isn't 512 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,240 Speaker 1: put it in the dirt, to water it, to give 513 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:55,240 Speaker 1: it and then it turns into this magnificent flower. But 514 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,200 Speaker 1: you can't make it be a different flower, and you 515 00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 1: have to let it be the flower. So how much 516 00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 1: of Tommy is your inner child? Like? What is a 517 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:07,120 Speaker 1: lot at Tommy Pickles is a lot of I really 518 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 1: resonate with Tommy Pickles because to me, he has a 519 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 1: lot of compassion. He really cares about others. He cares 520 00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:18,160 Speaker 1: about people's feelings. Um, he wants everybody to win. He's fun, 521 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:21,119 Speaker 1: he's adventurous, and he's a leader, but he's not a jerk. 522 00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 1: He's a kind leader. He wants everyone to feel included 523 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:27,440 Speaker 1: and honestly, to be honest. That's kind of me. I like, 524 00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 1: I want everybody to win. I want everybody to feel 525 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:31,879 Speaker 1: appreciated and love. I don't care who you are, I 526 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,639 Speaker 1: don't care what you do. And I think that's Tommy Pickles. 527 00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: I feel very connected to Tommy Pickles. Now, when did 528 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 1: we got start? When when was this that you actually 529 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:42,159 Speaker 1: got this show? It's been that was back in the eighties, 530 00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:45,400 Speaker 1: that was third Weight, that was the way it's having 531 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 1: it just had his thirty year anniversary, So I'm wearing 532 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:55,199 Speaker 1: the shirt, by the way, share that's me. Yeah, I mean, 533 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:56,879 Speaker 1: other than the Simpsons, it's got to be one of 534 00:24:56,920 --> 00:25:01,159 Speaker 1: the longest running huge certainly a children. It's great. And 535 00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:03,160 Speaker 1: now we just started our reboot and I'm one season 536 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 1: two of the brand new reboots, so who knows how 537 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 1: many seasons we're gonna do. Where where is the reboot? 538 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:10,399 Speaker 1: The reboot is on. Yeah, and the reboot is so 539 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 1: great because now it's all C G I and they're 540 00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:16,480 Speaker 1: actually they moved um, they recast some of the adult characters. 541 00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 1: All the babies are the same characters, the same casts. 542 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:20,960 Speaker 1: With some of the adult characters. They brought in some 543 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 1: celebrity talent from popular TV shows and stuff. But the 544 00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 1: beautiful thing is they're making the millennial. The people that 545 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:30,320 Speaker 1: were grown up on Rugrats, like the little kids, they're 546 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 1: now young parents. I'm not a young yeah, And so 547 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:39,200 Speaker 1: what's happening is the young parents are now going to 548 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 1: watch Rugrats. But now they moved all the Rugrats elements 549 00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 1: to like cell phones, bloggers, dating apps, so we're brought 550 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 1: it to today's time. So it's going to be very 551 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 1: relatable but they're bringing all the coziness of the Rugrats, 552 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 1: like the family and the familiarity and all the different 553 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 1: diversity of all the family members. Like it's a very 554 00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,200 Speaker 1: beautiful show like it embraces and Betty has now come 555 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:02,159 Speaker 1: out at a member of the LGBTQ community, which we 556 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 1: how can you not love a show that is embraced. 557 00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 1: Of course, of course there's somebody who's out on this. Okay, great, 558 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 1: I need to see this. Then, yeah, it's so awesome, 559 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:17,000 Speaker 1: like everybody, that's what I mean, everybody's included. They're really 560 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 1: they're just really embracing everybody's different cultures. They did a 561 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:23,119 Speaker 1: special cult Traditions for the Holidays, which was all about 562 00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 1: how everybody celebrates Christmas and different people do different traditions, 563 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 1: and they kind of tapped into different people's wanting to 564 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 1: make sure everybody felt special on their Christmas. The way 565 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,639 Speaker 1: they celebrate, whether it's Jewish or Christian or Catholic or whatever. 566 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:39,639 Speaker 1: Is that different from the regrets that was two d 567 00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:41,879 Speaker 1: I guess you know, I mean they always kind of 568 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:45,920 Speaker 1: did that, but now it's now they're just widening. Don't laugh, 569 00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:49,680 Speaker 1: you don't even look at it. It sounded like you 570 00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:52,960 Speaker 1: said two D to me, and then my brain needed 571 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 1: to translate you're saying too deep to remember. I didn't. 572 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:01,160 Speaker 1: I was like, wait, that's a good name for a doc. 573 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 1: That was Facts of Life. That's a totally different Yeah. Yeah, 574 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:09,159 Speaker 1: so yeah, it's sorry. We often we see something shiny 575 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 1: and get distracted, is how we do. Yeah, it's very 576 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 1: similar as in the in the Tutti. Yeah, it's kind 577 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 1: of similar in that they still they always kind of 578 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 1: did things special for holidays to kind of show everybody's 579 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 1: different cultures. But now they can do it more beautifully, 580 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:31,480 Speaker 1: magnificently because the animation is so spectactularly, like everything looks 581 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:33,680 Speaker 1: like when you see a giant Pixar feature, and the 582 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 1: carpet looks real, and the water looks real, and the 583 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 1: mud looks real. Everything looks so real and beautiful. So 584 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:41,640 Speaker 1: now I have to I have to talk about something 585 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:44,720 Speaker 1: very briefly here because my brothers and I, um, we 586 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 1: are We love movies, we love TV, and we grew 587 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:50,480 Speaker 1: up speaking in quotes. I love that and one of 588 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 1: the things we quoted more than anything was Valley Girl. 589 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:57,240 Speaker 1: So we won't get too much into Valley Girl, but 590 00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 1: just letting you know, it was hugely important in the 591 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 1: favorite quote. Oh there's so many of them, um, one 592 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 1: of the ones, because the whole cadence of the speech. 593 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:09,920 Speaker 1: So one of the things we're learning on I hear voices, 594 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:11,560 Speaker 1: especially when you want to become a voice over actor. 595 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 1: We heard great advice from Miley, but she said one 596 00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 1: of the first things she teaches people is just listen 597 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 1: to everybody around you. Listen to their voices, try to 598 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 1: understand their cadence. Get there. So the Valley dialect, which 599 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:26,560 Speaker 1: is what it was back in the nobody probably knew about, 600 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 1: right if you lived in California Cutain, people talk like this, 601 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 1: and it's like and take off, you know. And and 602 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 1: one of the lines we loved was just the bad 603 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 1: guy in the movie just walked up to you know. 604 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 1: They're like, and I think you walked up to him 605 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 1: and said, um, you know she's going to take you back, 606 00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 1: and he's like, of course, no other val dude can 607 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:49,080 Speaker 1: touch me. Yeah. I love that, And it was just 608 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 1: one of the greatest lines ever. So my brothers and 609 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:52,880 Speaker 1: I will be like, you know, it's like, hey, you 610 00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 1: going out that girl and be like yeah, the Vali 611 00:28:57,480 --> 00:28:59,120 Speaker 1: and then and then there's the scene, not to get 612 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 1: too much into it. Then is the scene where he 613 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 1: goes and he hooks up with your characters, like a 614 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 1: revenge against his act, and then kind of walks out 615 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:09,479 Speaker 1: on you and does this weird hand gesture. That's all 616 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 1: he does. He just the surfing weird with my brothers. Yeah, 617 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:15,959 Speaker 1: the best And so it was. And it also introduced 618 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:17,360 Speaker 1: us to the Plimp Souls, which was one of the 619 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,400 Speaker 1: greatest bands of the eighties. And I just did a 620 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:23,840 Speaker 1: live during more recently, but we did a live uh 621 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 1: show at the Vibra when we put together.

Right. So I have 651 00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:54,480 Speaker 1: this boyfriend who shot himself in the head. There was 652 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:56,480 Speaker 1: one moment in the when I talk about that. It's 653 00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 1: not all heavy, but there's moments that are heavy, and 654 00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:01,960 Speaker 1: there's moments that are me and light. But I pretty 655 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:04,560 Speaker 1: much let it all out because that's how I roll 656 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 1: radical honesty about everything, because I like people to I 657 00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 1: like people to get a little uncomfortable so that they 658 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,000 Speaker 1: actually go, oh my god, that makes me so comfortable. 659 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 1: Oh my god, I can't take it. Oh my god. 660 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 1: I feel the same way to me. That's magic when 661 00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 1: you can actually get someone to go I've had the 662 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 1: same experience. I don't talk about it, and there's a 663 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 1: lot of yeeling to be done. So in this show, yeah, 664 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:26,040 Speaker 1: it's called listen Closely, and that's why I talked about 665 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:28,760 Speaker 1: Throughout the show, I do a lot of different voices. 666 00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:30,959 Speaker 1: I play my mother, who talks like this, and then 667 00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 1: I play she was why did you do your legs? 668 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 1: You know, like she's French Tennessian jew, and then I 669 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 1: do like my brother Ronnie, you know, I do his voice, 670 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:40,720 Speaker 1: and I just I do all these characters and the 671 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 1: show I talk to myself talking to all these people 672 00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 1: that I grew up with, and and it's very profound, 673 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 1: and there's moments that are very deep. There's moments that 674 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 1: are very sad, but literally you'll be laughing hysterically one moment, 675 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,040 Speaker 1: and then you'll be crying the next moment because I 676 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 1: just let it all hang out. That's amazing. That is honestly, 677 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 1: that is a that's that's always and I'm happy make 678 00:31:57,040 --> 00:31:59,720 Speaker 1: it while I'm doing it.

If it's I do not wait. My 812 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:50,200 Speaker 1: art dictates my joy. I have to keep doing art 813 00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:53,239 Speaker 1: because if not, I'll spiral into I'm not important. What 814 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:55,040 Speaker 1: he cares, I'm not making as much money. It's like 815 00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:56,960 Speaker 1: all this stuff that will bring you down. I have 816 00:38:57,040 --> 00:39:01,000 Speaker 1: to remember if you sing, sing, and if you sing 817 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 1: in your house, and it gives you joy singing in 818 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:05,160 Speaker 1: your house. Because every time I pick up my guitartists 819 00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:07,120 Speaker 1: starts singing that my it's funny, Ace my girl. I 820 00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:09,920 Speaker 1: love her as my sister. She'll be like, how do 821 00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:11,440 Speaker 1: I know you are you singing? You're not singing ever, 822 00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:13,800 Speaker 1: whether it's like because I go through moments where I 823 00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:15,960 Speaker 1: like sorry for me to get myself to want to sing, 824 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:18,600 Speaker 1: because I haven't anti projects in the music realm. Now 825 00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:21,200 Speaker 1: I have to do something next week where they wanted 826 00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:24,040 Speaker 1: me to sing two songs, so that means I have 827 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:25,680 Speaker 1: to sing. I have to pick up the guitar and 828 00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:27,680 Speaker 1: I have to practice. And then so when I'm in 829 00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:29,920 Speaker 1: the car now, I start warming up the voice and 830 00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:32,320 Speaker 1: then I remember like, oh my god, I love this, 831 00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:35,080 Speaker 1: Oh my god, this makes me so happy. You get 832 00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:36,920 Speaker 1: like a rush, you get like a just feel like 833 00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:40,759 Speaker 1: well singing. Singing does something to your chemistry too, if 834 00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:43,600 Speaker 1: you're a real singer. There's something that happens when you 835 00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:45,600 Speaker 1: really get to where you're really singing, get to the 836 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:49,480 Speaker 1: zone you get to that. But do you well, you 837 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:51,320 Speaker 1: know when you sing a lot and your voice almost 838 00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:53,719 Speaker 1: gets a little huskier and it starts to get really 839 00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:56,359 Speaker 1: like rich, and then your voice gets bigger and fatter 840 00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:58,920 Speaker 1: and full of the more you sing. And when I 841 00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:00,719 Speaker 1: get to that place. I've been singing a lot. You 842 00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:03,040 Speaker 1: can always tell because my speaking voice gets a little huskier. 843 00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:07,280 Speaker 1: I just feel like I'm clear, I'm plugged back into 844 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:11,600 Speaker 1: some much bigger something and that that's that's my connection. 845 00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:13,480 Speaker 1: So the voice is my connection. About when I sing 846 00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:16,840 Speaker 1: is really my connection. So that's amazing. Now speaking of animation, 847 00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:18,640 Speaker 1: because we asked this if everybody that comes on here, 848 00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:22,560 Speaker 1: when you were growing up, were you a fan of cartoons? 849 00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:26,120 Speaker 1: I wasn't really that girl. I mean I wasn't really 850 00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:31,719 Speaker 1: doing voices, but not watching cartoons. Yeah. Yeah, I wasn't 851 00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:36,120 Speaker 1: really like anime person. I didn't really go to conventions 852 00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:39,440 Speaker 1: or cons. Did you know I was? I was a 853 00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:42,399 Speaker 1: theater kid. Okay, so for me, cons were very new 854 00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:44,719 Speaker 1: to me. Did you know about cons? Oh? Yeah, we 855 00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:46,440 Speaker 1: used to go to start your conventions when I was younger. 856 00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:53,279 Speaker 1: You did. You were absolutely a genuine nerd. Yet see 857 00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:55,800 Speaker 1: there's like there's I didn't do any of that. I 858 00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:58,560 Speaker 1: was like rocker. I was a rock star. I was 859 00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:00,799 Speaker 1: like a rock star in my own mind and then 860 00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:03,040 Speaker 1: I became more of a real one. But I I 861 00:41:03,280 --> 00:41:06,440 Speaker 1: literally was like I was playing clubs on the sunset 862 00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:09,040 Speaker 1: trip when I was sixteen and what are yours? So 863 00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:11,759 Speaker 1: I'm sorry now, were you there watching like the Go 864 00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:15,879 Speaker 1: Goes as they were exploding in l A? My mom? Yes, 865 00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:18,359 Speaker 1: because my mom owned a famous club called the Anti Club, 866 00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:22,640 Speaker 1: which was, uh, your mother owned that club, didn't you 867 00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:26,399 Speaker 1: know that? It didn't they broke like a huge number 868 00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:28,640 Speaker 1: of bands. I mean, it was so many bands, so 869 00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:32,520 Speaker 1: my mom whiskey. It was like Mattam Wong's or the 870 00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:35,239 Speaker 1: Whiskey or it was. It was an underground club, so 871 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:37,960 Speaker 1: we had people like Chris Isaac played there. I think 872 00:41:38,080 --> 00:41:42,080 Speaker 1: the Black Flag and X Scene and anyways, so um so, yeah, 873 00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:44,160 Speaker 1: the club was really popular and we had all kinds 874 00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:47,560 Speaker 1: of bands and was also rockabilly and punk bands. Was 875 00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:49,440 Speaker 1: a punk club and I used to go there and 876 00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:52,839 Speaker 1: you know and kind of be a celebrity like hidden 877 00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:55,759 Speaker 1: away bartend, you know, for stuff. And then those are 878 00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:57,520 Speaker 1: the days when I started playing like my like you 879 00:41:57,560 --> 00:41:59,640 Speaker 1: should pick up your guitar and go play set. That 880 00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:02,200 Speaker 1: was when I started doing my I was sixteen or 881 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:05,120 Speaker 1: but I started with your brother too, that particular one 882 00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:07,959 Speaker 1: I actually played by myself with.

I couldn't even play 885 00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:15,000 Speaker 1: guitar that well yet, but I started to really push 886 00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:18,759 Speaker 1: myself to do live shows because it would That scared me, 887 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:20,520 Speaker 1: but then I started to start to get better. Well, 888 00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:23,200 Speaker 1: let's very quickly talk about the punk scene in l A. Yeah, yeah, no, wait, 889 00:42:23,239 --> 00:42:26,320 Speaker 1: so he's into punk too, so he is nerdy, but 890 00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:29,600 Speaker 1: he's also very cool, So you're very You're I'm a 891 00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:32,360 Speaker 1: renaissance ner.

I 893 00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:39,640 Speaker 1: went from kind of the older school punk scene, which 894 00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:41,840 Speaker 1: was kind of growing in the New York scene a 895 00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:44,200 Speaker 1: little bit, and and the l A scene at the time, 896 00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:46,680 Speaker 1: but then it kind of transitioned in my family to 897 00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:49,080 Speaker 1: more of kind of the CBGB scenes. So we loved 898 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:51,640 Speaker 1: like the Ramones and television and I think they might 899 00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:53,520 Speaker 1: have played there too, which is insane.

Well, you know, 971 00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:27,520 Speaker 1: we had Lisa Schaefer in here, who I'm sure you've 972 00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:32,000 Speaker 1: worked with, right, and Lisa directed us primarily on Impossible. 973 00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:34,600 Speaker 1: It was like her first big thing she was talking about, 974 00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:38,200 Speaker 1: and she was saying, how really the most important thing 975 00:46:38,560 --> 00:46:41,880 Speaker 1: about voiceover actors and her casting them is that they 976 00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:46,040 Speaker 1: are an actor first, but that they can authentically play 977 00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:48,439 Speaker 1: the character. I think is what I took away from that. Yeah, 978 00:46:48,719 --> 00:46:50,319 Speaker 1: you know, in a really unique way, and that they 979 00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:53,080 Speaker 1: find their way into it. So I mean that was 980 00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:56,600 Speaker 1: I mean, she's a bit different from you know, yeah, 981 00:46:56,880 --> 00:47:00,759 Speaker 1: from Tommy. Yeah. Well, the thing is really the best 982 00:47:00,800 --> 00:47:03,879 Speaker 1: actors are the best voiceovers. I mean, the more there 983 00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:07,120 Speaker 1: are the voice actors. Voice actors are literally some of 984 00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:10,200 Speaker 1: the best actors on the planet because they can do 985 00:47:10,480 --> 00:47:12,520 Speaker 1: so much with their voice. I think they're a bit 986 00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:18,000 Speaker 1: unsung too, oh yeah, very much. Also not working like 987 00:47:18,320 --> 00:47:21,000 Speaker 1: Tara's recently doing something on on camera and I'm like, yeah, 988 00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:23,799 Speaker 1: go like get it. Kevin Conroy finally got to play 989 00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:27,160 Speaker 1: Batman on camera, played Bruce Wayne for the first time, 990 00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:30,560 Speaker 1: and he was Batman for thirty years on the DC 991 00:47:31,120 --> 00:47:35,200 Speaker 1: unit whatever they was, the Flash Batman Arrow Verse kind 992 00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:37,400 Speaker 1: of thing. Yeah, that's cool, and so Kevin it was like, 993 00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:39,359 Speaker 1: you want to play Batman and He's like, yeah, I'm 994 00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:43,480 Speaker 1: a Shakespearean trained stage actors and that's what I mean, Like, 995 00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:46,279 Speaker 1: you will never find more talent actors. So sometimes people 996 00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:47,960 Speaker 1: will say, which is why I did a voice over 997 00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:51,279 Speaker 1: seminar people, because people will say, like I have a 998 00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:54,840 Speaker 1: really good voice. Everyone says my voice is good, especially 999 00:47:56,360 --> 00:47:58,759 Speaker 1: and I'll be like, that's awesome. That is one of 1000 00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:02,279 Speaker 1: the first important things. However, you better be the best 1001 00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:04,560 Speaker 1: actor out there and you most of the time, people 1002 00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:07,799 Speaker 1: that can sing really well are great voice actors because 1003 00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:10,120 Speaker 1: you have to be a great actor and if you 1004 00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:12,600 Speaker 1: can sing, then you know how to like play with voice. 1005 00:48:12,680 --> 00:48:15,000 Speaker 1: Like when I first got rug Rats. This is trivia 1006 00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:18,120 Speaker 1: that sometimes people don't know they had already cast someone 1007 00:48:18,160 --> 00:48:21,640 Speaker 1: as Tommy Bickle. Really nobody knows. It's a weird trivia, 1008 00:48:21,760 --> 00:48:24,440 Speaker 1: but that's why they were recasting, because they wanted to 1009 00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:27,279 Speaker 1: switch the voice. They didn't. They weren't texture wasn't. They 1010 00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:31,120 Speaker 1: wanted more something different, They wanted more authentic baby sounding, 1011 00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:34,719 Speaker 1: which is kind of my thing. So basically they called 1012 00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:36,040 Speaker 1: me and they said, we want you to come in 1013 00:48:36,120 --> 00:48:37,920 Speaker 1: and do this voice. So I booked it and I 1014 00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:39,279 Speaker 1: thought I was just gonna do it, and then they said, no, no, 1015 00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:40,720 Speaker 1: know what you have to do is they had already 1016 00:48:40,719 --> 00:48:43,440 Speaker 1: done a whole season with this other girl and they 1017 00:48:43,480 --> 00:48:46,239 Speaker 1: already animated it or starting animates, so I had to 1018 00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:52,799 Speaker 1: come in and match her. That's really because I'm a singer, right, 1019 00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:55,280 Speaker 1: and I hear things as music. So if that girl, 1020 00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:58,080 Speaker 1: who was also talented, just not the voice they wanted, 1021 00:48:58,239 --> 00:49:02,120 Speaker 1: but if that person was like a baby's gotta do 1022 00:49:02,239 --> 00:49:05,000 Speaker 1: what a baby's gotta do, right, And that was the 1023 00:49:05,080 --> 00:49:07,520 Speaker 1: cadence of that line there was. I just said, send 1024 00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:10,680 Speaker 1: me all the tracks of her voice, and I learned 1025 00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:12,719 Speaker 1: it like a song. I was like, a baby's gotta 1026 00:49:12,760 --> 00:49:14,960 Speaker 1: do what a baby's gotta do, and I'd go, baby 1027 00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:17,040 Speaker 1: gotta do when a baby canna do you? I just 1028 00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:19,600 Speaker 1: put my voice with her little cadence and her did 1029 00:49:19,640 --> 00:49:22,120 Speaker 1: you guys ever end up doing ensemble records? We did 1030 00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:24,560 Speaker 1: When we first started doing Regrats, we were in a 1031 00:49:24,640 --> 00:49:26,480 Speaker 1: small little boots together. This is when they had that 1032 00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:29,040 Speaker 1: office on Highland and it was the babies. It was 1033 00:49:29,160 --> 00:49:32,919 Speaker 1: back then it was Chris Kavanaugh who bless her passed away, 1034 00:49:32,960 --> 00:49:36,319 Speaker 1: but she was the original voice of Chucky. And then 1035 00:49:36,400 --> 00:49:40,040 Speaker 1: it was cass Susie who does Um Phil and Little 1036 00:49:40,120 --> 00:49:44,879 Speaker 1: and she was doing Betty and myself and still wasn't 1037 00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:47,800 Speaker 1: born yet. From the beginning, it was just those main babies. 1038 00:49:48,040 --> 00:49:49,919 Speaker 1: With the new spin off, are you not Walt Covid, 1039 00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:53,680 Speaker 1: so you probably are recording by yourself? Well, Nickel, are 1040 00:49:53,760 --> 00:49:57,719 Speaker 1: they union? Are you guys? Oh? Yeah. So back then 1041 00:49:57,760 --> 00:49:59,760 Speaker 1: it was easier to do together because it was a beginning, 1042 00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:01,960 Speaker 1: but it also took a lot longer because it was 1043 00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:04,160 Speaker 1: all three of us. So you're waiting and you're waiting 1044 00:50:04,200 --> 00:50:06,720 Speaker 1: for them to perfect each line and you're reading together, 1045 00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:09,000 Speaker 1: but then you're having to wait to make sure they 1046 00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:10,960 Speaker 1: get that line right and that line. And so in 1047 00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:12,520 Speaker 1: the beginning it was that's how we did it. We 1048 00:50:12,600 --> 00:50:14,480 Speaker 1: sometimes we're in there for four hours or six hours, 1049 00:50:14,520 --> 00:50:16,960 Speaker 1: which is unheard of. It's a long sasion. Plus our 1050 00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:20,279 Speaker 1: director Paul Germaine was very meticulous about how the lines were, 1051 00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:22,600 Speaker 1: which is why Regrats was so good, because they were 1052 00:50:22,800 --> 00:50:25,359 Speaker 1: so they worked so hard to make it so good. 1053 00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:28,760 Speaker 1: And now it's great just because everybody knows their characters. 1054 00:50:29,120 --> 00:50:30,680 Speaker 1: We all know each other so well. We know how 1055 00:50:30,719 --> 00:50:33,239 Speaker 1: to work off each other. We know before they even 1056 00:50:33,280 --> 00:50:34,640 Speaker 1: say you're lyning, how they're gonna say. I know how 1057 00:50:34,680 --> 00:50:37,720 Speaker 1: phil or Little talks so well that now I record 1058 00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:40,960 Speaker 1: myself in my home booth. Sometimes I go to Nickelodeon 1059 00:50:41,040 --> 00:50:43,319 Speaker 1: and do it myself. But everybody's separate because of COVID. 1060 00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:46,280 Speaker 1: COVID kicked around and they were like, we were recorded, 1061 00:50:46,280 --> 00:50:49,640 Speaker 1: we started rebooting, and we did maybe I started working 1062 00:50:49,680 --> 00:50:52,200 Speaker 1: with one another character and then COVID hit and then 1063 00:50:52,239 --> 00:50:54,680 Speaker 1: they were like, oh, stopped for a while and they 1064 00:50:54,719 --> 00:50:57,279 Speaker 1: were like, how's your booth and everything was so we're 1065 00:50:57,280 --> 00:51:01,719 Speaker 1: able to do them. Yeah, so now we do it separate. Yeah, 1066 00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:03,960 Speaker 1: so okay, because we were talking about the differences between 1067 00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:07,040 Speaker 1: recording alan and then recording as an ensemble, and then 1068 00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:11,200 Speaker 1: COVID hits and recording an ensemble is obviously not even possible. 1069 00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:14,239 Speaker 1: So every now voice over rectord now doesn't have to 1070 00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:16,239 Speaker 1: wonder what it's like to record with an ensemble or alone, 1071 00:51:16,280 --> 00:51:19,880 Speaker 1: because everybody's recording alone. And and we're lucky because, like 1072 00:51:19,920 --> 00:51:22,080 Speaker 1: I said, we know each other's characters so well. I know, 1073 00:51:22,520 --> 00:51:25,640 Speaker 1: I know how how Deal is going to respond. Sure, 1074 00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:28,320 Speaker 1: I know how you know whoever whichever character I know, 1075 00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:31,680 Speaker 1: how Chuck he's going to say, you know whatever? Yeah, 1076 00:51:31,960 --> 00:51:33,600 Speaker 1: I does know, and I'll know how to respond. So 1077 00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:36,200 Speaker 1: it's fine. So I think it's time to get into 1078 00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:40,359 Speaker 1: some fun. It's been so much fun, but now we've 1079 00:51:40,360 --> 00:51:42,920 Speaker 1: got something fun that we do here on Voices. So 1080 00:51:43,280 --> 00:51:46,000 Speaker 1: we are not fully up and running and interactive yet, 1081 00:51:46,040 --> 00:51:48,120 Speaker 1: but we will be our next round. So one of 1082 00:51:48,200 --> 00:51:49,880 Speaker 1: the fun things that we're doing on I Hear Voices 1083 00:51:49,960 --> 00:51:53,400 Speaker 1: is that kids especially anybody can, but kids especially are 1084 00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:55,080 Speaker 1: going to be able to skype in and speak with 1085 00:51:55,120 --> 00:51:59,120 Speaker 1: their favorite voiceover actors and show artwork that they've created, 1086 00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:01,480 Speaker 1: and the voice over actor gets to put a voice 1087 00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:05,319 Speaker 1: to something that a kid has done. So Christie Um 1088 00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:09,920 Speaker 1: has reached out on her social media and has We've 1089 00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:13,919 Speaker 1: gotten some pictures from kids across the country, and we'd 1090 00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:16,560 Speaker 1: like if you could to pick one or two at 1091 00:52:16,719 --> 00:52:19,719 Speaker 1: random you got them already, yeah, and then put a 1092 00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:22,520 Speaker 1: voice to some of the characters that we have here, 1093 00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:24,840 Speaker 1: and they do have the names of you the artist 1094 00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:28,680 Speaker 1: or the character.
