Richard Reed: The one with the Breaths Left In!

In episode 90 of “How Do You Say That?!” sponsored by Voxbox, Richard Reed joins Sam and Mark to talk about the times where there can be too much humanisation, why leaving breaths in can be the best way to beat AI, and we muse over Patrick Swayze and Demi Moore and that pottery scene in Ghost!

Script 1

Debt Management can be a balancing act - between the obligation to treat customers fairly and the need to protect your income… between managing brand reputation and focusing on the bottom line.

Script 2

How long has it been since the sound of joy and merriment echoed through these hallowed halls? Since feasts were made and songs sung? All is lost now. Our names like distant memories, echoing through the breeze of this haunted land. Brother, you were once part of this realm. But I cannot overlook the signs, and I cannot help but wonder, if you had just played us all for fools. Whatever it may be, my destiny is clear. I will stop you brother. And you will face judgement for your transgressions!

Script 1

Next you want to find out some initial information about what type of EVC they would like, and discuss some options with them, such as what the benefits or disadvantages would be with certain product choices. The types of things a customer would need to consider are aesthetics, cost, safety features, connectivity from the installation location, and finally, whether it is a suitable product for the existing electrical system at the property, which you will assess when you conduct the site survey but the customer should understand that this could affect the product options available to them.

Script 2

Most of what we know about Wallis Simpson is the unforgettable affair that led to the abdication of King Edward VIII. Yet, Bessie Wallis Warfield was once just a girl from Blue Ridge Summit, Pennsylvania. So how exactly did this American socialite and divorcée lure the King of England away from the throne - and what was Edward’s strategy here? Did he ever really want to become King at all? Was Wallis simply a guaranteed way out of a life he never wanted in the first place?

About our guest:

Manchester based voice actor Toby Jackson started out studying game design at University so that he could become a game developer, but left that course after one week because he "didn't like how they were doing things!" One of his first jobs was making e-learning programs for students – which inspired him to learn how to be a voiceover because those e-learning programs needed vo!

Fast forward four years, and he has just voiced his first video game set to be released soon and carried on his game development journey by making his own game and documenting it all online.
