With the goal of trying to please the masses – especially clients in other countries, what time of day do you typically make yourself first available for VO (after breakfast, etc.)?
Thanks!

2am Eastern US time for a session with some guys in Dubai— But I just stayed up for that.
I've done 6am phone patch sessions with Sweden.
Otherwise I'll say 10 am "if possible".

Normally I'm a post-11am sort of guy (but I usually do go through to the early hours of the morning). Obviously, if it's a specific client request (due to geographic requirements) I'll make an effort... but usually I need a couple of hours of caffeine, nicotine and sticking my head in a bucket of water to actually be awake and ready to perform.

I generally say 10am-6pm ET
But...if they want earlier or later, I'll pretty much always say yes.

I am available whenever a client wishes me to be available. However, I prefer that those times not be between the hours of 4-10 AM, when I like to get my beauty sleep. Clearly, I do not get enough beauty sleep.

I've been naturally getting up around 5am (and earlier  )these days so I aim for 7am local and occasionally do 6am sessions. For a decent rate any of the 24 hours are yours for the asking.
