    "It's basically my voice, but with a hug around it"
    That's adorable. It's also such a perfect way to describe Jake as a character. He's the comfort and support of a loving hug, but in stretchy dog form.

      I’m listening to his Dr. Drakken and for some reason, I hear a hint of Mark Hamill’s Joker. Not the Arkham games Joker where he sounds older, but the animated series one where he still sounds young and energetic. Not saying he copied Mark Hamill, but I can really hear some similarities with his Drakken and Hamill’s Joker.
