“I grew up with puppetry and voices and weird little characters. I never really let that go — I just found ways to turn it into a life.” - Nate Begle In this episode, we're joined by Nate - He's a voice actor and puppeteer with over two decades of experience in storytelling across stage, screen, and sound. His career has spanned live theme park shows, national commercials, animation, and narration work for over 30 audiobooks. Nate has collaborated with major creative institutions, including James Patterson, The Jim Henson Company, Walt Disney Entertainment, and Sesame Street. Deeply rooted in performance, character work, and voice, Nate brings a grounded and authentic presence to everything he creates. He allows the characters, not the performer, to take center stage.Nate and I nestle in for a tender, playful, and witty conversation about a life built around performance. We talk discovering creative purpose early, navigating years of invisible work, and learning how to keep showing up for the craft even when no one is watching.We talk about his roots in Midwest community theater, how Fraggle Rock cracked open a lifelong fascination with puppetry, and the reality of building a career from bits and odd jobs to full-time creative expression. Along the way, we dive into themes like staying grounded while performing, the therapeutic power of play, self-belief in the face of doubt, and the surprising joy of working just off-camera.From humor and nostalgia to identity and intention, this conversation brings small insights that build into something honest, warm, and very real.More notable quotes from the episode:- “A lot of people think voiceover is just ‘talking,' but it's not. It's acting. It's truth-telling. It's intention.”- “It's like, if you see something that's not available where you're at - then make it.”- “There's a moment where you stop trying to get it perfect and start asking if it feels true. That's when you know you're doing the work.”For more on Nate Begle, head over to his IMDB here: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm4662429/Checkout Nates website here: https://www.natebegle.com/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@NateBegleLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nate-begle-785155bb/Hit subscribe, we'll see ya next episode.
I'll be at the Southern-Fried Gaming Expo speaking on a panel about obscure games and hosting a panel with video game voice actors! A PSA if you have a Nintendo Switch 2 - update your controllers firmware! There is a firmware update and the console does NOT automatically update your controllers. The Switch 2 is now officially Nintendo's fastest selling device, and is most likely the fastest selling video game console ever. The SAG-AFTRA voice actors strike over AI protections has been suspended, which means voice actors are now returning to work. Then we take suggestions from chat about obscure video games that you might have missed, none of which we actually used in the presentation, but it was good hearing them!

Ad Astra Travelers! Welcome back to Tales of Teyvat: A Genshin Lore Podcast. This week, we're at Angel's Share with the one and only Corina Boettger! Corina is best known in Teyvat for previously playing the best travel guide, our emergency food, and Traveler's best friend: Paimon! Our talkative companion shares the same lively energy with their former English voice actor who has been acting since they were eight. Our hosts sat down with Corina to ask them about their experience recording Genshin Impact, where they pulled their inspiration for Paimon, and if Paimon has the capability to be evil or not. After learning about the ins and outs of recording for Genshin Impact, our hosts make their questions more personal: the importance of advocating for those with chronic illness, if their birds like to mimic their voices, and what type of support you need to make it in the industry. Make sure to bring a drink, or juice, to Angel's Share and listen to everything Corina has to say, especially before Six-Fingered Jose starts his shift!Please note: This episode was recorded in June of 2024 and was set to release on July 26, 2024 - the same date the Video Game Voice Actor Strike began. Our hosts decided to hold the episode and stand in solidarity with the VAs. Though we are excited to finally be releasing this episode, we were saddened to hear with the release of 5.7 that Corina will no longer be voicing Paimon. We think this episode encapsulates everything that they brought to the character and we're excited to share it with the community. Thank you Corina! We wish you the best in your future projects.Visit https://bit.ly/tot-corinaboettger to find a comprehensive lore sheet that provides visual aids and links to videos and important Genshin Impact resources.Tales of Teyvat has partnered with the Shade Chamber Podcast to create a Genshin Community on Discord for our listeners!

In this episode of the Anglotopia podcast, host Jonathan Thomas speaks with Ian Russell, a British voice actor who transitioned from a successful banking career in the UK to voice acting in the United States. Ian shares his journey of adapting to life in South Carolina, the cultural differences he has encountered, and how his British accent has become a unique asset in the American voice acting industry. The conversation also touches on the challenges of maintaining British traditions, the humor differences between the two cultures, and the importance of networking in a new environment. Ian reflects on his experiences as an expat and the evolving nature of his British identity while living in America. Links Ian Russell's Official Website Ian Russell Instagram Ian Russell Facebook Ian Russel LinkedIn Takeaways Ian transitioned from banking to voice acting after moving to the US. His British accent has become a significant asset in his voice acting career. Cultural differences between the UK and the US have impacted his family. Networking in the US is more direct compared to the UK. He has embraced American customs like Thanksgiving and Halloween. Ian's daughters have adapted differently to life in the US. He has faced challenges in voice acting, including accent expectations. Tea culture in the US is vastly different from the UK. Humor styles differ significantly between British and American cultures. Ian plans to spend more time in both the UK and the US as an empty nester. Sound Bites On His Career Transition: "I volunteered as tribute, you know, and they let me go. And then we said, well, what are we going to do next? And so we went, let's sell up. Let's move to the US." On His British Accent as a Professional Asset: "You kind of stand out don't you? In a crowd of people there might be 400 people in a room and you probably might well be the only Brit so you stand out and that makes you memorable." On Cultural Differences in Business: "In the UK, we're also apologetic about everything... 'Well, I if you really must have my card, you know, that sort of thing.' Whereas here it's like, 'here, buddy, take my card. If you need a voiceover, give me a give me a shout.'" On Voice Acting Challenges: "Most British actors think they can do an American accent and most American actors think they can do a British accent. And probably most of the time we can tell." On Tea Culture Shock: "They got some iced tea and put it in the microwave to heat it up... I had sweet iced tea with creamer. I was I couldn't drink it." On American Assumptions: "Are you from Australia? And I think they sense that I'm from somewhere else, but they're not quite sure where. And so they pick Australia because maybe it's a bit more exotic." On British Heritage in America: "Almost every American will claim to have English, Irish or Scottish heritage. And I think that's a desire for the root, where am I from?" On His Unique Position: "My naivety when I arrived, I thought I'll be the only one. And of course, I'm not. There's dozens and dozens. But most of us are friends now."

What should voice actors post on social? Let's break it down!
You may know him best as the voice of Salem The Cat or Norbert from Sabrina The Teenage Witch and Angry Beavers but Nick Bakay is also the Writer/Producer who brought you Mom, King Of Queens, Paul Blart Mall Cop and Bookie. What does it take to sustain a multi-decade entertainment industry career? Versatility. Nick takes us deep into Sabrina lore with tales of the old-school imagineering of Salem Saberhagen, brought to us via several cats, puppeteers, animatronics, trainers and cat treats. A Buffalo, NY native, Nick's facility at performing, writing, and producing allowed him to create opportunities for himself that were both entertaining and rewarding. He's heard from a generation of young women who felt empowered by Sabrina to take on adult life, even without the benefit of witchcraft. Along with his pal Keven James, Nick went from writing on King Of Queens to creating Paul Blart: Mall Cops One and Two, and Zookeeper. And it was his writing chops that forged a connection with Chuck Lorre, providing Nick with an opportunity to write for Two And A Half Men and go on to helm nine seasons of Mom, HBO's Bookie and an upcoming Netflix sitcom, Leanne. Nick is also a household name to sports fan who see his work on ESPN.

Amy tried to guess the movie based on the celebrity voice actor. Bobby shared how a $100,000 salary may sound like a comfortable income, but it depends where you live. It goes pretty far in mid-sized Texas and Oklahoma cities . . . but NOT as far in New York City. Bobby shared that he is a part of a gala for Brooks and Dunn at this year’s ACM awards. He also talked about how a woman flying from D.C. to NYC posted a video after a drunk passenger "projectile vomited" on her while their plane was descending. Plus, why gossiping might be good for you. We talked about the drama over the Easter Egg Hunt at work and Lunchbox pissing people off. Bobby recommended a Black Mirror episode for Lunchbox who has never watched the show before.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
