  • Excellent Podcast

    I am a huge fan of Anne Ganguzza’s content and her generosity in the VO community. I have learned so much from her podcast and find myself always putting what I’ve learned to practice. The AI Series is UH-MAZING. It’s been a guiding light in the next phase of my VO career. I always recommend this podcast to both fellow and aspiring voice actors.

  • A very pro-artist perspective with a positive outlook

    Ann does a great job including guests from voice technology companies and asking them the hard questions about artists’ payments in a future full of AI voices based on real people. Her banter with guests and cohosts feels very authentic and focused on the work of voice over. One of my top favorite VO podcasts up there with Working Class V.O., Audio Branding, and V.O. School.
