Apologies for the low audio... I was farther in the back. I'm not going to put up the rest of the talk because of it.
But you will get the QA session

Thanks Vegeta-San! This is what I was looking for back when it happened a few months ago. It looks like Rob has gotten Still and always a voice of his generation! VAs are overlooked acting gems.

Really, if it weren't for the development of the Internet, VA's would still be a passing thought today. They've been credited as so many different titles over the decades and depending on the studio, such as "Voice Characterizations" (Classic Looney Tunes/Pokemon), "Voice Talent" (TMNT), "Voice Talents of:" (Many Hasbro cartoons in the '80s), "With the (Voice) Talents of" (Disney), "Voices" (Hanna-Barbera), "Voices of", "Voices By" (Garfield & Friends), "Starring" (Rugrats), "Starring the voices of" (MOTU), "Featuring the Voices of" (Ruby-Spears), "Actors" (Rocy & Bullwinkle, "Cast", "Featuring", and there are probably many more.

Thanks for sharing! Rob Paulson is awesome and very talented.

[tmntgeoff]

I really wish Rob would do a show in Philadelphia at some point, or even Harrisburg.

[Jester]

I wish he's come to somewhere near here... I guess Dallas or Memphis would probably be the best bets....maybe St. Louis. Then again, I'm so broke, I'd never be able to afford the trip and the ticket.

*le sigh*

I don't know. I remember my freshmen year in high school talking to a girl who told me that Mark Luke Skywalker" Hamill was the voice of the Joker and I was blown away. After that I looked at the voice actor credits and started listening to the classic TMNT VAs trying to guess which actor it was behind the various characters of the episodes of the '87 series I had on VHS. I quickly became aware of Frank Welker, Casey Kasem,Mel Blanc and a few others and came to appreciate them. It was not really the internet which may help but an person who after getting older looking at the show beyond just pure enjoyment. Anyway,cheers to Rob Paulsen a voice of my childhood and heck young adulthood. He is not the voice of Raphael that I always will remember back.
