Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

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.
CWK Show #861: All About Galaxy Tours, with Davin Anderson
Q: What inspired you to turn your diplomatic work in Tunisia into Galaxy Tours, and how do you maintain authenticity while running tours for fans?
The inspiration came from recognizing Tunisia's rich Star Wars locations and wanting to protect and showcase them. We maintain authenticity by extensive field research, training guides in Star Wars lore, using a dedicated app with research materials, and coordinating with local partners to preserve the sites while giving guests a genuine, education-forward experience.
CWK Show #861: All About Galaxy Tours, with Davin Anderson
Q: What would you say to someone curious about Galaxy Tours at a convention booth?
I'd tell them we turn the lifelong dream of Star Wars fans into reality by offering end-to-end, fully immersive trips to the iconic Tunisia film sites, with careful planning, vetted local guides, and curated experiences that require no research on the guest's part.
