lol! Well, you did okay without the beer! Ha! Fantastic acting. Three very distinct and impressive roles. I'll let you know if any other parts open up so you can use some more of your voices. :lol:

I really liked you as my father. I could imagine taking advice and learning a thing or two from this character. PL OK! The witness is also PL OK.

For the drunk driver, could you please pronounce the second syllable in "gas'line" as LEEN, so that it's clear that he's looking for a gas/petrol station and not a natural gas line? (although... maybe he's just that drunk...) :lol:

0:26
‘Wonder’ff tell me where there’s a gas’line station?’

I'll also need voice credits for all three. You can put them all together in one voice credit.

Thanks,
TJ

Okay, for Slagle I have given you my best "criminal tendencies" voice. It doesn't borrow regional accents, rather it mugs them in a dark alley and goes through their pockets for loose diphthongs.

I had to drink three more beers to get back into the spirit of this one. 'Gasoline' is not a word we ever use in the UK. That's my excuse.

Thanks, Craig! (see, that's why I translated for you: "petrol station" lol! ). Those beers clearly helped; you've got a perfect American "gasoline" pronunciation now! :lol:

Drunk Driver is PL OK!

Thanks a ton!
