Mike Mcfarland, beloved and a friend to many, opened the door for many voice talents. He battled glioblastoma, a form of brain cancer, and was surrounded by many in support. Rest well, Mike, and know that many inspired by you will grow with you in their hearts.

Coming this autumn, I will be supporting more Union-backed English dubs, while at the same time suggesting that more Non-Union voice actors work alongside their Union counterparts. Because I believe BOTH Union and Non-Union voice actors should together!

Swimming, mostly. But how about going Union, reinstate the talent pool from Los Angeles, NYC and worldwide to work with your Dallas-based talent pool (no more exclusivity to local talent only), guarantee protections against AI, and allow the other ADR studios to work in your dubs?
