0:00 are leave a voice message for Bart you'll get back to you right after the beep merge [Music] so I thought this would be a little bit fun to talk about since you know many of us are in the entertainment oh no more dead animals like the dead animals you want to talk about one more dead gorilla sperm yeah is that how you think of me Bart just dead animals I just put your Chapstick on you ████ psycho all right so uh anybody here a fan of Taylor Swift wait I thought this was Taylor Swift the entire time you guys told me I like Taylor that's how we got him here yeah yeah he makes fun music fun music

0:52 she's cool yeah she's cool uh she uh recently uh we found out that she turned down a Super Bowl offer what whoa why do you think she turned on us because it was a fake 100 Bill wow this is fake because that's not her demographic maybe no I wouldn't say that she's got a very very big demo I mean I I know I know she has a big demo but I just think like people might not want to rock to her if the last time was like Dr Dre and Snoop and stuff oh it's a hard act to follow yeah that's interesting that'll be a really really interesting like sub reason that you would never admit to never thought of that yeah that's okay it's like imagine you're hosting the Oscars and then you see Will Smith singing the front row and you're like uh I'll go backstage I'm gonna ████ slap me or

1:42 something that's true you want like someone else to follow that because they're gonna be talking about last year's and then this one they're like Taylor Swift it's a big contrast that is that is a little bit she comes all ████ Crypt out and she does her covers her covers of all West Coast Music that'd be kind of cool that's a good guy acoustic version acoustic ████ yeah acoustic ████ album yeah so uh the reason that came out was actually she said that she didn't want to do it until she had finished re-recording all of her first six albums re-recording is that because of that um that rights issue exactly what happened back in 2019 yeah back in 2019 Scooter Braun was part of a group that acquired the rights to her first six albums and

2:33 that basically just pissed off Taylor Swift because like you know she didn't have the rights to her own masters why didn't she acquire them then she was a little girl it's hard to do well scooter her producer or or agent the whole time I think he was her agents really yeah I knew this was Bieber's age yeah he's everybody's agent Bieber and Ariana Grande and PSY but yeah Ryan you you just you just gave that uh you gave that very affirmative like yeah it's really hard to do because you're obviously familiar with the music business I mean that's a that's something that like anything rights-wise it's hard to get from a label labels just don't want to give you anything like the first the first scooter get in there and get it I mean most of the time someone else will have it yeah but yeah so I mean nowadays though obviously with technology social media everybody realizing that they can

3:23 do that you know people are rappers were even doing it with nfts like in the last like you know two years and stuff like that everybody's making a much more independent kind of like uh Avenue for themselves in order to make sure they maintain the rights to all their stuff we've already seen like major Milestones of this like for example when Apple acquired the rights to like the Beatles music and was able to take Beatles music and put into Apple I remember who had it before that Michael Jackson yeah yeah so he would dangle in front of Paul McCartney like I got it or or what is remember when it was like a huge deal when uh Macklemore was rising to fame and he was like the only independent independent artist who was doing that at the time too and there was a lot of that kind of like Stick it to the Man own your own ████ then they're not truly independent most of the time if you're it has to go on unless you own the label

4:14 that you're you know Distributing from right because even even Interscope has an independent Branch where like Independent Artists go under Interscope independent side still under it yeah but they're allowed to like you know promote themselves as like oh I'm not in label so at the time Taylor uh Swift was pissed saying that she uh she was sad and grossed out uh scooter Brawn has since sold the best out that's a great quote totally aggressive has since sold the master recordings and Taylor vowed to re-record them to in effect regain ownership so she like there was this whole time where she told all of her fans to stop listening to her music that was already out under the labels and support like the re-recordings of music and she was she had already done I think uh two of the albums red and fearless she's already re-recorded and a ton of

5:04 work dude damn this is a hard worker do they know that which ones are the newer albums because I wouldn't know well if if you're a fan I think that you you know that uh she put out six albums already and then all those sixes because she hasn't put out a new album of new songs she's only recently put out two albums of her old albums re-released and re-recorded but if they got the same CD cover picture and everything then you're right everything's probably got that like nice legal 15 change and if you're at amoeba nice and then they both have the same cover you're like is amoeba even alive still yeah they are in San Francisco got it and then you're just like which CD do I buy I don't even buy CDs anymore but is it like um because your your instrument as a person changes yeah so like you're you're not even gonna sound this like

5:55 Usher at 17 there's not is his voice is way different than the Usher now but if it's super different she's all Shake It Off yeah it's all deep now like I want to support her but damn like you know the song uh Tevin Campbell the can we talk or wow yes I do so that's all like he recorded when he was like 15 like even he can't do what he did yeah you know so it's like how how do you reproduce the instrument that you're not anymore Auto auto-tune I wish there was a voice actor here to talk to you guys about that yeah anyways uh it was nice talking to you guys let's talk about this goldfish with the big ass we could take this yeah I don't know I don't know I don't know it's uh there there has to be but I think about it when uh they just re-released or not re-released but

6:46 released new episodes of Beavis and Butthead and Mike Judge is uh uh you know uh he's still doing the voices and it still sounds great yeah he's still killing it I don't know how I can understand that in the obviously extreme sense but if they still sound close enough or the same it's like at that point youthfulness you know what I mean puberty is a factor but I mean for girls it's going to be easier to do right I don't know I don't know yeah it's not like she suddenly had like eight octaves deeper of a voice coming into her re-release you know what I'm saying and on top of that too like um imagine Bieber redoing baby it's like that's different before it can't happen baby baby oh he also probably would never want to do that over I'm taking my rights back it was so gross yeah I am so grossed out with it it's gross so it's gross the voice

7:37 acting World um do people get fired because their voice changes sometimes they do sometimes sometimes that's a it's threatening sometimes uh there are people that their voice does change or their their memory of what's like your beauty oh the memory of it you're not like uh you sound like James and then if someone's in charge that doesn't agree with like oh well he sounds fine she sounds fine but what happened to him there could be moments where another actor might have to come in yeah especially in like things like Simpsons where it's the same people for so many years well the thing too about that is like the the character evolves as well so you have to take that into account is that yeah Homer didn't Homer sounded way different it was like more of a Walter now a Walter Matthau impression uh boy go to your room and now we know him as

8:28 this big dumb idiot right that sounds like this even with Bugs Bunny even with bugs he kind of sounded like just a normal guy with a New York accent and but now it's this thing that we're all familiar with but yeah Homer is probably one of the best examples of that oh yeah yeah he's like was that good donut can you now I know why you brought this can you can you record uh my voicemail being later and say you better pay him 100 bucks for cameo that'll be so cool I'm gonna keep that forever leave a voice message for Bart he'll get

9:19 back to you right after the beep merge fill your throat with cheese like that I don't know I mean look at me I mean you know that I have internal cheese yeah they're gonna harambe me they're gonna take my cheese kill me and then make it that's so cool I don't even know how to follow up with that like where do you go from that you just ████ dude do your best Wesley Snipes impression go Wesley Snipes I don't know like him in real life or him as a character want him to get canceled I just want Anthony to get ████ up are you able to pick up little voice traits and just like actual Bart right now like and sound like him it's tough you all have particular sounding voices um you know I would have to like really

10:09 study that one study all the voices do you like just hear things way differently when you're hearing like you're like oh I could hear the little this I gotta put this together it's yeah I think it's it's a musicality all in the ear and and kind of just can can I because like when I was auditioning for Looney Tunes I didn't know that I could do Daffy I was always thinking about trying to perfect oh wow until the The Voice director is like can you do Daffy and I was like I don't know can I so I started watching and and then trying it you know and just in around friends Workshop in it yeah yeah just like seeing if it would get a reaction from someone and that's usually if it gets a laugh then you go forward right because you know you're you're getting somewhere uh and then eventually it just it happens I always think of uh Daffy Duck as Richard Dreyfus with a lisp you know

10:59 yeah what we're dealing with here marathon is a perfect eating machine and all he wants to do is eat and make little baby sharks crazy basically Richard Dreyfus here what like with the ability to sound like anything you want what makes you choose your default voice yeah oh I don't know that's a good question um you can literally just be bugs 24 7 if you felt like it or you could you know sometimes you just feel like bugs yeah I mean you know if again it's just if it's in the situation for here I would do it if you want if you ask me like as soon as you get here don't break character and be bugs I would have done it in a heartbeat done we would have been harambe because you're so comfortable you're so comfortable you could just do it sure and now I am I

11:49 think before maybe not but I think because I've I've always just thought of you know ever since Who Framed Roger Rabbit I I may have thought that those characters were real yeah oh yeah do you ever use your talent to like defuse tense situations send me to the Ukraine and I will de-escalate right yeah I can only imagine just like something real intense and then it just goes off put those machine guns down not war we better listen to that guy thank you
