S6, EP 193 Special Guest - Jen Greenfield, aka Mama Greenfield or otherwise known as - Naked JenGet to Know Jen - https://www.jengreenfieldvo.com/Take aways from our convo: I am many things, not just one thing. Your job is not your identity. The voiceover community is one of the only fields, where everyone is up in each others chili pot. You have just one life, so go do everything you want to do. If you are interested in learning about how to do something new go for it and figure it out. Collaboration is the life force for creatives. Find your Collaborative team, get help from those who know things you don't or don't have time to figure out. Actively do not limit yourself. Baseline, just try something. Worst thing to happen when you try something new is shoot that worked or shoot it didn't work, and now how do I make it work? Voiceover is no longer a career it is a just a business. These days it is hard to JUST be a voice actor. You are a million things, your job is not your identity...labeling limits your limitless ability to be many things!

In ep 140 of “How Do You Say That?!” sponsored by britishvoiceover.co.uk, Marissa Dubois joins Sam and Mark to talk about taking all the emotion out of a documentary read (and how feeling cross can help). We remove the schmaltz from a schmaltzy script and explore how not to be excessively sentimental when talking about love. Plus how varying your pace within a sentence can bring more drama, and how nailing a conversational read is one of the trickiest to pull off.Our VO question this week is all about how you prepare for a singing part in a voice over script.Get involved! Have you got a Wildcard suggestion that we should try or an idea for the show? Send it to us via Mark or Sam's social media or email it directly to podcast@britishvoiceover.co.ukScript 1The knock could come at any hour.No explanation. No warning. Just a quiet summons.Questions came quickly.So did threats.These weren't arrests.They were warnings. Proof that they were watching.And that if they chose... you could vanishThe streets ran with fear.Voices were met with bullets.And then—he appeared.Not in a war room... but in the rain.It was the image of a ruler unravelling.Script 2Love isn't the goal.It's the reason—the way they wait by the door,the silence that makes words unnecessary.They deserve care that keeps pace,support that shows up,science that moves with them every step.At PAWSITIVE, we've always stood beside the vets who listen closer,the pet parents who notice sooner.Not because it's easy, but because it's love.PAWSITIVE.

What if the voice guiding blind audiences through your favorite show was never credited? Or never even acknowledged? In part two of her conversation with Roy Samuelson, Bridget asks more insightful questions about the unseen artistry of Audio Description (AD). From the SAG Awards adding AD to both screeners and the live broadcast, to Netflix requiring crediting AD for performers as well as writers, this episode reveals how a behind-the-scenes craft is becoming a movement. Roy shares the origin of the ADNA, the push to get AD talent recognized by the Television Academy, and why AD is more than narration: it's performance, precision, and presence. They explore the rise of blind professionals in media, the power of proper tools and coaching, and the industry's slow but thrilling shift toward honoring every voice in the room. This is the story of inclusion done right. And it's just getting started. Roy's book is available at roysamuelson.com/book

On Friday's show: The Houston Chronicle is reporting that UTHealth Houston is laying off dozens of employees due to “financial headwinds.” The move comes after the academic health science center implemented a hiring freeze in early July. Is this and other belt tightening at area health care institutions in recent months a momentary blip or a sign of more to come for Houston's health care industry? Health economist Vivian Ho breaks down what it all means.Also this hour: Not all zoos and aquariums are created equal. While many advertise fun for the whole family or showcase loved and well-cared-for animals, the reality is that caring for a multitude of exotic and endangered species requires extensive education and expertise. We learn how the AZA and the Houston Zoo set and enforce standards to make sure all animals get the best care possible.Then, from HISD being among the 11 Texas school districts temporarily blocked from displaying the Ten Commandments in classrooms after a ruling in federal court, to the City of Houston launching a “Train Watch” webpage with real-time info on rail crossings with stopped trains, our panel of "non-experts" decides The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of the week.And veteran voice actor Phil LaMarr talks about the many characters he's voiced. He's one of many voice actors and celebrities coming to Houston this weekend for The Nostalgia Con at the George R. Brown Convention Center.

Tables turned! Bridget Melton sat in the host chair for The ADNA Podcast, grilling me about my new book A Voice Actor's Guide to Audio Description Performance. We dug into privilege, allyship, and why I open the book by addressing the awkward-but-important question: “Why listen to a sighted guy talk about AD?” Bridget appreciated that the book stays laser-focused on performance for film and TV, without wandering into every other AD niche, and we explored how performers and writers can “salsa dance” between script and delivery to keep blind audiences immersed, even when the words are limited. I shared why access to visuals matters for performance, how production ownership of AD could change everything, and the surprising ripple effects of SAG Awards requiring AD on screeners. From deft “dialogue dodging” to scene-shift signaling, from the dream of live, in-production AD collaboration to the reality of working in silos, we covered the craft, the advocacy, and the small-but-mighty ways performers can elevate the work. Bridget's thoughtful questions brought out the heart of why I do this, and why better AD is access as well as honoring the story. Bridget was one of the first to ask to interview me about my book, A Voice Actor's Guide To Audio Description Performance. Follow her at BridgetMelton.com
