I've had an affinity for audio books and podcasts since my college days when I moved to Manila and had access to a relatively faster internet connection and the acquisition of an iPod. I still do enjoy music in my audio consumption, but I will admit to its lesser frequency of plays. As a fan of radio as medium you understand that the reason you listen to the radio is less for the music but more of the personalities eminating from the speakers. And What a personality I found that day when when I searched Comedy on iTunes on the BBC page.
Russell Brand Radio 2 Show.
After that I became a fan. And the show became a constant companion during sleepless nights of finishing plates, projects etc. The internet was literally a gateway for me, the classic works of literature read by the best voices in the industry were now taking up the majority of my iPods memory space. And the number has been growing.
Then a few years back an event was held for the Local Voice Acting industry held by the leaders in the
Voice Acting industry. And ever since then I have had it in the back of my mind that I could be part of this industry... now I actually have taken the initiative and have recorded my voice.

Seeing what he looks like especially to me was quite jarring, what more the first time I heard him speak. I thought the trees of middle earth had a child in England. Anyway he appeared brefly on
BBC The Wow Signal reading a message for our galactic brother. I never heard the audio but I Saw it as an opportunity to pay homage .

Since then I have taken a bit of a hiatus, since my studies must now take precedent. But i have been able to have fun on the side.
