Ep. 93 – Mike Pollock

Fun fact: the plural of Eggman is Eggmani.

Mike Pollack has a career spanning much of the heyday of American television anime. From humble beginnings in Little Tug’s Big Adventure (we honestly tried to find a clip of this. Way to drop the ball, Internet), Mike became a regular in the 4Kids lineup of shows with roles on Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh and Viva Pinata before becoming the latest to voice Sonic The Hedgehog’s nemesis, Dr. Ivo “Eggman” Robotnik.

Mike talks with Evan about honing his skills in radio, navigating New York public transit in a business that sometimes gives 1 hour notice about work, and how audio books should always come with pronunciation guides (and sometimes very strong coffee). You can hear Mike in the ongoing Sonic Boom series as well as numerous commercials and audio books.
