The cow icon, I always thought it was a cow @LuckySww !! Haha wow :D I feel so bad our project didn't go through. I had a rough 6 years there, health and finances and a fire even, lol. I'd love to do sometihng eventually! Anything, haha! :D Good stuff, learned a lot about you my guy! Take care!!

LuckyDee responds:

Aye, life gets in the way sometimes. It's not to late to give it another shot, but either way thanks for getting me over here. Took a while for me to get it, but my life definitely ended up richer for it. Thanks for listening <3

1000 hobbies huh? You must be having an interesting life indeed.

LuckyDee responds:

It's both a blessing and a curse. On the one hand I never need to be bored, but on the other I finish very few of the things I start - especially if they take longer than a single session to complete. Thanks for listening!

Sick ‘cast fellows, enjoy hearing the story behind your career, Lucky. I’ve gotta take some audio engineering classes myself, though.

I WILL, however, go on the record to state that Lucky did NOT in fact beat me in VAC13, I was first place >:) I am wearing the Behemoth hoodie I won right now at work.

EDIT: I’m about halfway thru! Pretty sure you blew me out of the water on that one Twitter voice acting contest, I totally gave up on those

LuckyDee responds:

Yeah, you're right - listen to the disclaimer in the last minute or two ;)

Good episode, thanks again to @LuckyDee for pointing out Spoken Word Collab for me and willing to record reading of my poem!

LuckyDee responds:

Sure thing, thanks for listening man
