Could be real... yes.
Could be a hoax... yes.
And there's also the possibility that the guy actually has a great voice, but decided to finance his VO dream with a unique marketing plan that doesn't cost him a cent.

I'm rooting for him. But if this ends up launching a massively successful career, I might drink hard for the next couple of years then relaunch near a southbound 405 offramp with a bag of oranges and a stack of demos.

Does that mean offramp location strategies will be a discussion topic at FaffCon 4?

If Ted is for real, I hope he catches a break to get his life right side up.

The Today show just announced they're flying him in for the show tomorrow and are going to "get him some voice over work".

I just think it's a cool story/video. Nothing more. If it's true, then may he get back on his feet (in or out of radio.) If it's not true, then... bravo! Either way, it's still a good story.

WE, that is to say Voiceoverists, live in a media bullsh*t world. If your man gets back on his feet and a bit more thanks to a good story ..FABBY.

It's not fair, but then life isn't fair. Do you know how much time I genuinely spend monitoring the careers, successes and failures of other Voiceoverists? Not much. I do tend to know what my friends are doing but that's because I care about them.
