2020 brought a slew of new VO artists to the table and many will try to climb the ladder to success. I started the Ladder with Will to help those climbing... and although we've parted ways the ladder is still a part of the journey to living THE VO LIFE... so those episodes are still up and relevant. Catch up on all of the OLD podcasts from the ladder before they are gone and for now, catch the new VO LIFE episodes here or on other feeds!

My favorite VO Podcast!
I love listening to Troy as he shares his journey into the VO world with us. So much great, thoughtful information - it’s really helped me boost my own VO game. Troy is super personable, knowledgable, and just a great guide. There are a ton of VO podcasts out there these days, but The VO Life is one of the best.

- The VO Life - MOCK AUDITION 2MOCK AUDITION 2 is in the books and after 21 pros and 17 rookies submitted we have a winner in each and also an "honorable mention" that we felt needed to be heard. All 3 are played in the podcast and names announced but you have to listen to find out! This was a great teaching/learning moment for us all and let ne say IT WORE ME OUT.... we wanted to be thorough and fair... and make it HELP those who needed feedback. Thanks to the panel who helped, we all had nearly exact feedback on all reads with only maybe 2 disagreements! I appreciate the participation and maybe we will do it again in late summer... I will be rested up by then!0 comments0
- The VO Life Ep 113 - It's ANOTHER VO PodcastToday Troy has Alden and Jake over from "It's Another VO Podcast" to talk about the new podcast and why you need BOTH the Life and this one! Get to know the guys and make plans to follow both podcasts and get a ton of information... good and otherwise... as these three full time voice actors hold each other accountable and share their journeys.0 comments0
- EP 112 - Alice Stops The Bus!Episode numbers DO NOT matter and we don't care.... but we skip to 112 with the AMAZING Alice Everdeen who a few years ago embarked on a dual journey to not only beccome a successful Voice Actor using Fiverr for a springboard but also to live "on the road" in a converted school bus. Just a month or so ago I toured the BEAST while at VO Atlanta where she was a dual presenter and we finally met in person after a few years of online friendship and got to hang out... fish tacos and all.... ughhh! Alice has defied the norm, yet maintained top shelf clients, built a business OFF of Fiverr and continues to share her marketing strategies through her new venture shared at VO Atlanta. So grab a seat on the bus and listen to the journey and get some insight with Alice Everdeen... whether we like it or not, she's made it work for her and has ZERO regrets and is living life to the fullest!0 comments0
- The Voice Over Ladder & The VO Life May 16 · 21m The VO Life Ep 106 - You Know More Than You ThinkIt's part of lifes cycle.... and this week as we lost our treasured "Sammy Doo" it made me reflect on "learning" in new environments. Sammy had to come to a farm and learn the other animals, the neighbors, but then as we added "Gracie" he showed her the ropes. Like when we get a new job, we learn and maybe one day WE are training the new hires. VO is a little different, but you also have a learning curve and it takes time...but man is it nice when you feel like you are starting to get it AND you can pay it forward... Let's talk about those cycles today!0 comments0
- The VO Life Ep 104 - INSERT TITLE HERE!!THE GOOD NEWS IS LOUISE PORTER SENT IN A GREAT NEW INTRO!! And I laid that FUNKY MUSIC right on it and I really liked it. So thankful for all of you who help me... Jake Sanders, Charles Bain, Dana Ramoni (Morgan Freeman), Louise Porter, Liz Atherton, James Brown and Rudy Abell. YOU GUYS ROCK and I appreciate youall so much. I love having the variety to use each week and its always a HARD decision. THIS WEEK???? Thanks to my GREAT IDEA to try Riverside again I have NO PODCAST GUEST this week however Jim McCarthy gets a mention as we had fin talking BUT we will reschedule...meaning yours truly takes the rants of this week and rolls it into 30 minutes of REDNECK BABBLE and OPINIONS and maybe a glint of something you needed to hear. My apologies... but as good as tech is at times it seems to let us down QUITE A BIT!!! Anyway, on we go!0 comments0
- The VO Life Ep 103 - Don BaarnsThis week we are talking THE SIMPLICITY OF YOUR AUDIO with Don Baarns who has a deep background in music and audio and he explains how we need to"set it and forget it" and stop over-complicating things and learn to TRUST the systems in place once they are set and stop over thinking... which after moving to my new studio last week... PERFECT TIMING!!!! Learn about his approach and why he feels StudioOne is the most overlooked DAW and why he loves it.0 comments0
- The VO Life - EP102 - BRAD HYLANDThe VO Community is just the best... right? And this guy is one of my favorites! Brad Hyland came from the corporate world to chase a dream he'd had since childhood and has for seven years been a full time VO and now is launching his coaching (website coming soon). Brad has been very successful and teaches how to reach the authentic, real you... which is key to most reads that are desired today. Brad talks about his love for "Rudolph" and shares about his recent move to be closer to his kids and 3 grandkids... one just born! CONGRATS!!! Brad also speaks about the types of work he books most and what he enjoys most. Want to know more about Brad and his coaching? visit his site at www.americanvoicepower.com0 comments0

Marc is an ambasador to the community providing free advice on his You Tube Channel on Fridays at 1 est. He is definitely a giver!

- The VO LIFE EP 97 - Boundaries and Ethics in VOSome weeks it seems common sense escapes people and they forget where the lines are. This week it's a reminder to set some boundaries in your VO Life and remember basic respect, ethics and general business sense and remind you to give total respect to EVERY coach in this industry or to ANYONE who is trying to help you. Not being a jerk, but it's time to jerk a knot in some people....0 comments0
- The VO Life - EP97 - Paul SchmidtPaul Schmidt is a guy who tells it... and isn't afraid to face questions. His You Tube channel covers a variety of topics that inspire, teach and make you want to be a better VO. Sort of reminds me of church. If you get your toes stepped on, maybe the sermon is for you. I always liked those preachers who made me look within deeper and want to know more... and Paul may be just that... the VO Evangelist! Listen and lean in and learn as Paul talks about his journey, marketing, demos and more on todays episode. Find him everywhere by searching Paul Schmidt Pro.0 comments0
- The Voice Over Ladder & The VO Life Feb 19 · 26m The VO Life EP 94 - Negativity In VONegativity. The demise of everything. Recently "Sabrina Farrows" has re-appeared and started in on someone who has been in the biz for nearly 30 years... but why? Some people just thrive on personally attacking a successful person in a genre they failed in. It gives them "relief" of some sort to attack, harass and belittle someone who is actually "making it". They use examples that make you wonder "how do they know that" and make us second guess our ability. Then comes MORE imposter syndrome, as if we don't deal enough with that. The best thing you can do is NOT engage. Delete it and move on... but our core WANTS to respond and defend! Let it go Elsa! Move on. Go do something to HELP your career versus losing time and energy on "that". See you in ATLANTA March 22-26!!!!!!! #voiceactor #impostersyndrome #mentalhealth0 comments0
- The VO Life Ep 91 - Jenna BirminghamHow we crossed paths I cannot recall but VERY HAPPY to know and get to talk to Jenna this week. Not only an award winning VO, she is also a producer of thousands of spots a year giving more perspective onto the business. Commercial, automotive, imaging... she does it all and with style!!0 comments0
- The VO Life Ep 90 - The Mock AudutionWhat a casting director does EVERYDAY? My respect for wht they do had gone WAY UP... thinking I was giving some fo the group a fun shot at a "real audition" I think I ended up learning the most. Listen in hear what I thought about how HARD it is to not only pick someone but also to get things submitted properly and by the directions.0 comments0
