In S1 of #rottmnt, we were trying to figure out how much of a couch potato Splinter was. I pitched that he was psyched for a Filipino soap opera cliffhanger, where Tita Letty was just about to reveal her recipe for moose adobo, a nod to his Pinoy/Canadian roots. #ericbauza

Eric Bauza was a phenomenal talent. I had the privilege of working with him many times. He was kind, fun, supportive of aspiring voice actors, he came to studio screenings and hung out with the artists who make your favorite shows. RIP Eric and my heart goes to your family.

My heart also goes out to those who knew him best. Bauza started out in the animation world as a storyboard artist, so seeing him in the trenches with the animation teams always impressed me.

This was recorded in the animatic editing bay, not on professional recording equipment. I also could have benefited from external direction to make my delivery punchier and more playful. I do, however, like "And you, got tricked!"
Behold, Repo Russ! Might delete later.

I could have been a contender! My version of Repo sounded a bit more weasel-y than deep-voiced and gruff. I was *almost* the official voice, but I got scooped by the talented Mr. Tatasciore. C'est la vie.
Did you know that staff writer Russ Carney (@RCoA) did some scratch VO for Repo Mantis? RIP Repo Russ! Check it out in #TheArtofRiseoftheTMNT on page 68. Repo Mantis premiered September, 20 2018 #RiseoftheTMNT #ROTTMNT

The lovely Miss Dolly Parton might be the last example of pure class that we Americans might have been witness to in our lifetimes. Thank you, beloved lady for every bit of positivity and kindness that you exuded in your lifetime.

AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted is one of the best-written rap albums to drop on the West Coast during my teen years. My niche group of friends and I recited the hell out of it. Mr. @icecube is one of my writing heroes.
Me and the Bomb Squad took the sample era to its peak in 1990. I felt that we could do no wrong. 📸= TVM Agency

The Sneetches was a cautionary tale about obsessive, trendy plastic surgery before that was even a thing. It's like a Twilight Zone episode for kids.
I learned to read with Dr. Seuss books. No regrets, but I did develop a mild sneetch impediment.

How fucking gangster would it be for Metallica to bring this gal on tour for a few legs of the journey, if for no reason other than to support bad-ass musicians from across the globe?

Rusty Lake games are the gold standard of casual, environmental, room escape games. Great vibe, great art, good music. Lots of free play options, and the paid ones are super cheap and worth the $3-4.
The sounds of Servant of the Lake 🎶 Coming soon in our next #SotLDevlog, featuring @LaviniaMeijer #servantofthelake 👀

DH Peligro was the GOAT of punk percussion! Not only great at breakneck speed, but he had those jazz chops too, as is evident in We've Got a Bigger Problem Now. youtube.com/watch?v=R8x5bUZd…
In memory of one of the absolute greatest, D. H. Peligro, drummer for the Dead Kennedys, who would have turned 67 today. 06-17-16 - Dead Kennedy's live at House of Blues Chicago - California Über Alles (D.H. Peligro POV) #dhpeligro #deadkennedys #punkrockhistory

Happy Birthday to the Mayor of Punk Rock, Mr. Jello Biafra.

For #rottmnt fans: We writers and artists were afforded so much creative freedom on Rise to do what pleased/amused/inspired us personally and I'm so happy for the result. I am so grateful to have had that opportunity in my life, and to know how positively it affected you all!
This has been my philosophy my entire career. I actually made music that wasn’t to dance to INTENTIONALLY.. Cause I wanted the listener to pay attention to every word.. ‘If you can’t hear what I’m saying, how can you HEAR what I’m saying… That’s how ‘I’ like it…. Hopefully, others will also. 💎 @rickrubin ‘Criminal Migraine’ coming Soon.. 💥

As a very little kid in the very early 80s, I cracked up when Jerry's uncle sang Crambo. But the most spirited and fun version of this song I ever heard was by @mccutcheonfolk Much respect and gratitude, Mr. folk elder! youtube.com/watch?v=_FyJyurl…

A TMNT pizzeria opens in Santa Monica, miles from Burbank? Any chance I can read the network notes?

This could be better. Where else do places review books? I'm gonna need to submit it for awards. I need some accolades that have value!
