Visited Chuck Duran (Rock ‘n’ Roll Chuckie) for some tag work on a few campaigns. (Also ran into the talented and kind Dave Mallow who was on his way out.) This company likes to put acronyms for the campaign names when billing. Today’s was “Legacy of Life” – funeral homes. Very touching and subdued. I bill it with the acronym “LOL.” I just love that.

God Save The Burger King!

Last week I booked a radio spot for Burger King through the lovely folks at Voicecaster and went into Big Joe’s studio in Santa Monica to record. It turned into two very fun spots. I worked with Susie Geiser (who is a geiser of energy!) and we got to improv a bit, parodying “Fox and Friends.” [One of the spots can be heard here on my Facebook page.] At the end of the session they said we’d be back Monday to record “a few” more.

Well, today I went into Lime Studios in Santa Monica and they handed us TWELVE spots! Yes, God save the BK! It’s these kinds of voice over surprises I LOVE!

On a side note, when I arrived I thought I saw a familiar face there (perhaps a fellow Abrams Artist client) and I cheerily said “hi” as I never can remember names or where I know someone from, but figure I can never go wrong being overly friendly. (Yes, a horrible defect for an actor.) I realized quickly it was Joel McKinnon Miller from HBO’s “Big Love” and apologized for being friendly and turned my back on him… Yup. It then hit me that this was probably the wrong way to wrap up the moment. I turned back quickly, apologized for apologizing and then proceeded to be an annoying fan of the show…

Turns out he was in 10 of the spots with us! Had a great time working off of both him and the amazing Susie.

So, keep an ear out for the BK spots…

… Ahhhh. My first real post. Not too painful.

Welcome

Hi Kids, Thanks for checking out the blog. My webmaster assures me that there are people who actually care and will read this. Now it’s turned into a bet. Problem is, I have to make this interesting to show good faith (no talking about our cats or the strange hangnail I got recently). So, I’ll start with in-booth and on-set diatribes and occasional status updates. If that fails, then I’ll post naked pictures. Check back often to see how our bet goes. .. (Hmm, does that work against me?)

You can also check out the Facebook Fan Page where there’s video and additional media that may be more exciting than just my attempts to string words together.

And then there’s the newly old-fashioned thing of checking out the actual websites!

More to come…

Free Online Movies, Because I Care… January 24, 2012
Times are tough and movie tickets are expensive. Younger folks who troll the internet while wearing their Guy Fawkes masks need a place where they can get their entertainment fix without having to twist their ethics into pro-piracy pretzels. A place that SOPA, PIPA, and ACTA might leave alone… Ah, hell. YouTube changed my account [...]Free Online Mo […]
Storming The Castle Ad Nauseum January 18, 2012
The Actor had been storming castles in Hollywood for over twenty years. He had crossed many a moat and even made it inside the foyer every now and then. Victory was always short-lived and he was usually killed. Head on a pike. Another career dry spell. The Actor recently had been saved by a renaissance agent who called him [...]Storming The Castle Ad Nau […]
2012: Come Over To The Dark Side… January 15, 2012
What does Star Wars, angels and the GOP primaries have in common? Aside from really easy metaphors, it’s a lazy actor’s way of weaving video game clips and political commercials together in one post! First, the genuine dark side… Last year I had the fanboy pleasure of supplying about 15 generic voices to the expansive [...]2012: Come Over […]
Holiday Wrap-Up: Robots, Sports and a Slimeball December 19, 2011
Usually December marks the death of foliage, diverse TV commercials and my career. But this year, thanks to my new voice over and theatrical agents, December is a reversal of fortune for me! So, staying true to my prostitutorial™ self, I will recap the month: SLIME BALL In the television category, we have the first in [...]Holiday Wrap-Up: Robots, Sports a […]
It’s Official: I Am A Transformers Rescue Bot! November 26, 2011
There is one thing I enjoy almost as much as landing a gig and that’s having the NDA (Non Disclosure Agreement) lifted! Yup. I’m a self-pimping, Google-lusting, Dear-God-where-is-my-next-job-coming-from-must-promote-ad-nauseum Los Angeles actor. And now I’m free to promote! But this particular gig needs no hard sell. It’s a Transfo […]
Are You Not Entertained?! November 17, 2011
ACT III. Open on a barrel-chested Russell Crowe in the center of a cyber arena. He holds a computer mouse in one hand and an iPhone in the other. He looks up to the stadium and bellows. Are you not entertained?! Was it not I who uttered “retardé,” sending the Tea Party into a media [...]Are You Not Entertained?!is another fun post from:THE D.C […]
My Tweets Have Big Balls November 11, 2011
My tweets have big balls, so sayeth The Hollywood Reporter. In all honesty, my only intention of tweeting about “Tower Heist” director Brett Ratner was to clear out the odious venereal fumes left in my head by a disheartening Q&A with the privileged Peter Pan frat-boy. In fact, my sole contribution to the Oscar-Ratner flare up was [...]My T […]
Love Letter To Dava Waite Peaslee October 30, 2011
It was 1989. I was tall, skinny, big-nosed, low-voiced and topped off with a mullet. In short, I was an ideal looking actor… for bad non-union Lambada knock-off flicks. I had signed with my first agent (the erudite and mischievously capricious Erika Wain) and had already auditioned for the hottest show on TV – 21 Jump Street [...]Love Letter To […]
Laughing at the Family Circus of Circumstances October 16, 2011
I have no idea how to write this blog post. And in a few paragraphs, you’ll see why. I could make this post just about vaudeville, burlesque, metaphysics, or sex in the twentieth century. But all of these things together are what made my recent family reunion so damn hysterical, confusing and rewarding. But let’s [...]Laughing at the Family Circ […]

All-In With The GOP September 26, 2011
Last night I gambled away $350. Texas Hold-em. My love. My enemy. My disease. But all guilt is washed away when it’s for charity!

Brother, Can You Spare A Film/TV Role? September 21, 2011
“You know,” My dad said 15 years ago and with some import in his voice, “I’ve been watching that new medical show and I really think you should get a role on there as the brother of the Noah Wyle character.” I smiled at his “Studio Boss” instincts and said, “Good idea, Dad. I’ll go [...]Brother, Can You […]
A Tea Party Caucus Fracas August 6, 2011
The title almost sounds French so I must quickly apologize to any Tea Party patriots reading. I meant no disrespect. You guys certainly don’t surrender as easily as they do! A little history joke!

My Apologies To Optimus Prime June 15, 2011
