Ep. 19: PHIL LAMARR Comes to SiDEBAR

Solid acting chops—you got it! Great comedic timing—covered! Versatile voice acting—no problem! Phil LaMarr has been doing his thing as a successful working actor for well over 20 years. His resume is chocked full of some wonderfully funny TV and film moments and he's shared the stage, camera and microphone with many other fine actors. MADtv, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Murphy Brown, Spiderman 2, Barbershop (the TV series), Samurai Jack, Metal Gear Solid, The Animatrix, Futurama, Justice League, Kim Possible, Family Guy...stop me when you’re convinced. This L.A. native has done a lot in his career and in a relatively short period of time. We had the pleasure of talking with Phil about his background in improv, his sketch comedy work on MADtv, his roles in Free Enterprise and Pulp Fiction, and his undeniable skills as an accomplished voice actor.

(Re: Hi Chin, I agree he is a great voice actor, I am big fan of the MGS series myself and cant wait to see what Hideo Kojima does with "Rising" who knows maybe Vamp will be in this one as well.~D)
