The first few years it was 'per use' as they say. Now I get what is called a 'buyout' which is a flat fee for the whole year (season). Because the other voices are Billy West and J.K. Simmons I'm in pretty good company so if I'm careful I can live off the one check for the whole year. I'm pretty lucky.

Union. SAG. And yeah. I have a great agent. It helps that people really seem to like this spot and look forward to seeing it every year. It's all about numbers so they must sell candy when they run it.

I used to. At this stage all my friends are over it.

I understand. I did take a huge risk by going into this business. And I'm not wealthy by any means. I hope you can be happy for me that I am able to pay rent and buy food while working in my chosen profession. I'm off to the The Actors Studio west to do the first act of a play called Tru about Truman Capote that I have been rehearsing for a few months and am just doing for 'fun'. It's nice that my commercials can support that. Also..Don't be bitter. It only affects you. LOL.

Or I could have bought bitcoin. If I can pay my rent and buy my food and gas and stuff I'm happy. In this business you are always one audition away from a series. So that's where I reside in my mind. I'm always auditioning. Some years the M&M's money is a bonus, some years it's my lifesaver. It's feast or famine in this business.
