CWK Show #867: Bad Guys Doing Good: Inside the 501st Legion with TJ Wonogas and Chip Childress
Q: Talk to us about the charitable aspects of the 501st and what really drives that.
The guests describe hospital visits and appearances for charities including Make-A-Wish and St. Jude as ways to bring joy and briefly distract people facing difficult circumstances. They say appearances are free and donations are optional.
CWK Show #867: Bad Guys Doing Good: Inside the 501st Legion with TJ Wonogas and Chip Childress
Q: How did you become a member of the 501st?
Chip Childress first encountered Stormtroopers at Star Wars Celebration in Denver, then began with a Darth Maul costume and later joined the 501st after learning it accepted Sith Lord costumes.
CWK Show #863: Finding The Character-My Conversation With JP Karliak
Q: What would you tell someone curious about voice acting as a craft?
Emphasize improv and music as the building blocks, understand the physical mechanics of your voice, and use improv to handle the black-box nature of creating scenes; this combination is essential for believable and dynamic voice performances.
CWK Show #863: Finding The Character-My Conversation With JP Karliak
Q: How did you get into acting, voice acting, and where you are now in your life? Were there moments you related to early entertainment experiences?
I grew up loving animation and initially thought voiceover couldn't be a real job, but college in Los Angeles and a professor who was also an animation director helped me realize I could audition and find an agent; since 2006 I've been pursuing this career for about 20 years.
CWK Show #862: My Conversation With Brendan Wayne
Q: How did The Mandalorian fall into place for you, and what was the moment you realized this was going to happen?
The process started with a call to try on a costume while I was juggling two jobs and helping my daughter go to college. I took the chance, moved quickly, and then faced a lengthy audition period. When the team finally fit me into the gear and shared the look, I understood there was something special, and I committed to earning the role through hard work and performance, not just waiting for luck.
