I’m the VO man for a Turkish commercial

Back in October I was hired by an agency to do the English voice over dub for 2 Turkish food commercials. They recently contacted me about royalties for airing it in the UK! We agreed to a price and soon it will be on TV in London and the rest of the UK. Here’s one of them (I voiced both characters):


Home Alone High!

Did you know the inside of the “Home Alone” house was filmed entirely inside a high school? I didn’t until I watched Netflix’s “The Movies That Made Us”. I watched a few episodes tonight and it’s well worth your time.


Creepy Keith

I love watching Keith Morrison on Dateline. He’s so eerily creepy it’s beyond entertaining to me. Bill Hader does an even more (intentionally) creepy parody of Keith on SNL (plenty of videos on YouTube if you haven’t seen them). Check this out–it’s the first time Hader met Morrison, captured on video.

 


Ewan’s otters

My daughter sent me this a few days ago. I can’t stop watching Ewan McGregor talking about sea otters in Alaska…

“We’re looking at sea otters… six of them here… they’re beautiful… pop pop pop… it’s cool isn’t it?” 😂


Bosch S07

Finished watching the final (7th) season of “Bosch” on Prime Video. Like previous sessions, it was awesome. Great cast. If you’re into cop dramas, you’ll love this show. It’s about a homicide detective, Harry Bosch (played by Titus Welliver), in Los Angeles. The first half of each season builds and can seem slow moving at times, so hang in there because the 2nd half (and definitely the last few episodes ... (more)


Creators ditching Instagram?

This is in response to Chris Hau’s YouTube video titled “Creators are ditching INSTAGRAM…why YOU should be worried”. I predicted this would happen to the IG platform back in 2012 when FB bought IG, and further confirmed in 2018 when IG founders Systrom and Krieger left the company. It’s the same reason ... (more)


The purge

For the first time in about 15 years I decided to spend some time on my day off yesterday to purge old contacts from my phone. There was so much junk I couldn’t believe it… and people I couldn’t even recognize anymore. In the end I whittled it down to under 180 after deleting more than 200. I’m posting this to encourage you to do the same… give your contacts ... (more)


Where’d I go?

Why haven’t I been posting on social media lately? Pausing Social Media is an article I posted to my blog to explain. Check it out!


Something new

Hey there! I decided to try something new… my own personal mini blog. It’s like having my own personal Twitter.

I love the idea of Twitter, but I haven’t been a big fan of the social network in years… or many other social networks these days. They own all my content and it’s not indexed very well to help others.

So I’m pulling things back to my own website and ... (more)
