When she speaks you can hear a bit of glados peeking out, what an awesome interview
A little bit.
I never heard glados, just the TF2 admin
"Protect the briefcase"
Actually, maybe even more the HL2 overwatch command. "Attention please: All citizens in local residential block, assume your inspection positions"
"Where Carolyn lives in my brain."
true
I may be tripping but i hear these little robotic cuts in her voice😂
Idk why but my favorite line of GLaDOS is when when goes "Oooooooh boy" in chamber 19 when she tells Chell "one day we will think of this, and laugh, and laugh, and laugh"
YES! (reminds me of Wall-e)
@@Mysticalfrog29 OH MY GOD I KNEW IT REMINDED ME OF SOMETHING
Oh, hi. So, how are you holding up? BECAUSE I'M A POTATO.

"I'm not shy, it's a waste of time"
Bless her, for being an incredible voice actress and most importantly human being.
That stuck out to me too, bless her❤
the fact that Ellen McLain knows about Narbacular Drop just makes me happy! that's proper nerd cred. heck, Ellen McLain just makes me happy. thank you both for this.
It's awesome to hear her know so much about Portal! She's awesome, thanks a lot for the conversation!
It's remarkable to me that "a voice actress knows all about the game in which they played the starring role" is remarkable to anyone, but then it can happen that voice actors don't get ANYTHING but the minimum of context required to do a good job. Like here, she basically got "sound like this robot" and they didn't even tell her they would make her sound like a robot, so I guess it is kinda remarkable XD
Shes one of those celebrities that i would pay ANYTHING to get to talk to, she seems like the sweetest lady.
"I always want to do my best work. I think one always wants to do one's best work."
That's a line I could hear Glad0s saying for sure.
timestamp?? 😋
the way she describe the turret opera😭😭😭
One thing i love is how much she knows about not just about her role as GLaDOS, but the entire development of the Portal franchise with things like Narbacular Drop and such. Really cool to see how passionate she still is about the games she helped create
"In my dreams"in my dreams ive murdered people"😊
Wow the method acting is incredible😂
I KNOW RIGHT 😭
Much love to Ellen. Such a gem of a human being. I fell in love with her character as a 5th grader in 2012, and only grow to love and appreciate all her roles. Thank you for all you do Ellen :)
Man, she remembers everything!
except for the name of cyberpunk 2077
Imagine how much valve could troll us all by making a portal 3 and on release they call it portal: rattman
Or Portal: Aperture, or Portal: F-Stop
I think it's dope, no way chell could come back her story is done and it's perfect.
Rattman on the other hand though
Portal 2 Chapter 2
A psychological thriller game with rattman and portals would actually be sick
28:45 Me too. The Turret Opera was beautiful.
Ellen is a national treasure, seriously!
Yep!
(Also why do I see you everywhere on portal videos-)

When you hear her say "pronunciation" at 4:10 you can really hear GLaDOS
And "song" at 25:37
The fact she knows about narbacular drop is kinda awesome
just thought the same…
Love seeing Ellen appreciate and almost fangirl over the other actors. GLaDOS is one of my favourite video game villains of all time!
I think it’s a shame they have never met one another though. @valve need to work on this!
40:30 We all want a Portal 3.
I don’t know how likely that really is, given Valve track record with “trilogies”.
We’re still waiting on Half-Life 3, which has become an internet joke at this point.
Always possible, but don’t hold your breath.
They did alyx. Maybe a portal prequel would be more interesting from a story standpoint. Things would get complicated if you find a pretext to get Chell back into the facility. (Or you could design an outside world where she somehow needs to do something on her own will). Well you have to deal with one of 2 problems: - either the outside world design after her escape, that point is really sensitive because we have never been exposed to it as an audience and fans might have different expectations and it's hard to maintain coherence. The other option is justifying a return to the facility without it being deus ex machina (which would be empty from a story standpoint).
@@peepo19 Honestly, the Half Life joke still works in a way. They didn't call it Half Life 3. I agree though, it would be tricky to get Chell back into tthe Enrichhment Center. Having not played any of the HL games I can't speak for the world at the end of those games, but I don't know that it would be particularly good gameplay either way since portal has always been about the puzzles and the crazy science lab environment. Though in terms of a prequel, maybe it doesn't have to be Chell for that, either, or at least as a main character. You could run into "little Chelley" (in a "let's confirm the fan theory about her being a bring your daughter to work-turned-test subject" way, probably. I mean they didn't tease that for nothing right?) in some pre-GlaDOS, or at least pre-neurotoxin, Enrichment Center, perhaps?
@@Twisted_Code yeah absolutely, I think a prequel would be super interesting and also funny (we get a glimpse of the old times in portal 2 I believe, and the CEO is super funny - the context too, no regard for safety or well being of the scientists/ test subjects). I can imagine it would be really funny and rich as a story.
Half Life isn't finished. It's been left on cliffhangers in all games, Alyx included, however Portal has been concluded. TWICE.@@Twisted_Code
@@peepo19 "Science isn't about *why* - it's about *why not.* *Why* is so much of our science dangerous? Why not *marry* safe science if you love it so much? In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because *you are fired!* Not you, test subject. You're doing fine. [to someone else] Yes, *you*. Box. Your stuff. Out the front door. Parking lot. Car. Goodbye."
Such a wonderful person with so much zeal and vibrancy to her!
21:46 I recently dreamed about being a terminator. Also It's great to hear Ellen McLain, She's awesome!
I was waiting for the question,"Have you ever played Portal?" I think I'll ask her on Twitter!!
Has she?
Did ya get an answer?
I wish we had more Ellens on this planet. Wonderful voice, really engaged in what she does and a hunger for general understanding of history. If you don't learn from history you're doomed to repeat it. Incredible human being. This was a real pleasure to listen to.
:) I also remember a lot of kinda useless stuff like who played in which movie, I also remember tons and tons of lyrics to many songs. I'm 40 now and I hope I have such a great memory in 30 years...
To see someone that loves their work so much is rare, and makes me wonder about the difference between us. I once heard something about how some people believe motivation is infinite, and never get tired of working. I wonder whether the former causes the latter or vice versa. Do such people believe motivation is infinite because they've never felt demotivated? Or is it their mutable mindset (in contrast to the fixed mindset) that ALLOWS them to avoid being demotivated?
Whatever the case, I really want to have this love of doing things she has. I seem to get bogged down quickly when I try to do anything complex.
Just throwing this out there, OverWatch, hands down some of the most chilling dialogue in any medium.. I just recently got back into Half-Life 2 working on a mod project and I'd never paid attention to the minutiae of the dialogue, or at least I didn't remember it.. but I was reading 1984 right around the time Half-Life 2 came out and there's this near pitch Black chill that that I get, especially the opening sequences.. I don't think I've ever seen it in another game and as far as movies, only a handful and none of them really took it quite as far and just the strength of the medium being interactive.. I recently found out compilation of all the OverWatch dialogue and played it for my wife and there's this visceral reaction.. I know you're known for the characters that you're actually able to character LOL but that is always going to be burned into my brain as this dark ominous utilitarian malice that as far as I can tell it's unmatched..
I don't know if it had the same impact on everybody like it had on me.. seems like everybody was into half like two for different reasons, and given the episode 2 direction they took and how people reminisce on the game, maybe that wasn't universal but.. just wanted to throw that out there, that roll was genuinely something so so perfect for what it was, I'm kind of floundering on the words here but.. mad props I guess?
Love that she doesn't remember the name of Cyberpunk 2077 lol. I was actually interested in more about how that process work - if CDPR had to get permission from Valve before reaching out to Ellen or if a computerized version of Ellen's voice isn't something they really control.
Great interview! She has such a long career, I feel like it could be 3x longer and there'd still be plenty to talk about lol.
I think Pacific Rim had to ask permission to Valve to use Ellen's robotic voice.
51:50 Wow! She is probably talking about Cyberpunk 2077, that's crazy haha!
More of GLaDOS and the little turrets.
Omg the way she talks reminds me so much of my grandmother; the words she uses❤❤
She reminds me of my grandmother as well, the willingness to learn and the sense of humor is totally that incredibly sweet grandmother energy 😅
Hey Reece, glad you’re doing better! I’m still listening through this but I just wanted to pause to tell you I’m loving it (and all your other content too!)
Thanks Joe! Yes, back on my feet and good to be back in the swing of things with interviews.
She has amazing energy, great interview!
This is such an amazing podcast , its kinda hard to me understand cuz i dont speak english but the bit I got Its amazing, I love her!!! U made my childhood.
If my podcasts get big enough I would like to organize voice dubs in other languages, so non English speaking people can understand
This woman is a pure gem!
I love listening to her go on little tangents so much, this is such a good interwiev and she gets to just talk and bring up things she's interested in randomly. It's so sweet, and reminds me of my own late grandmother somehow. I could listen to Ellen talk about basically anything for hours and hours haha, she's so wonderful ❤
Ive listened to this voice for a decade and ive never seen the actual voice actor
This is amazing
Someday, there will be an entire animation of this video with Ellen as the TF2 administrator
Love the part where she recounts her confusion about GlaDOS lying to the player. Actors would do well to remember that, at any given point before or after the climax, only the writer has a complete picture of the story to be told. Sometimes, it's best to just roll with the lines one is given and don't think too much about "truth" or how a scene will play out. Perhaps this goes for life as well. In terms of individual "stories" iif not for a grander scheme. To quote Matt Smith, "we are all stories in the end, just make it a good one".
Great to see you back! Also, I had to make sure it wasn't Saturday when I saw this notification.
Thanks! Been a while since I had done a poddy so decided to release it during the week.
Awesome interview! Ellen is such an awesome person and sweet lady. I can listen to her talk all day
God bless one of the best characters and performances. Thanks Ellen!
Dang... I can not unhear glados when she speaks.
Happy Birthday Ellen McLain. U look amazing. Also. I love Cyberpunk 2077. Wow. My older brother played Cyberpunk 2077. Oh yeah, theirs even Cyberpunk Edgerunners, love that anime, it's fuckin' awesome and badass. UR great. May the Peace be with u Ellen McLain. From Harlingen Texas. December 1, 1952

Ellen is such a great woman. Thank you Kiwi for this.
I love Ellen and her husband John Patrick Lowrie so much. They are so talented and have so much respect for the characters they play and their fans.
I just love listening to her speak. All that training refined even her regular speaking voice.

I like her selecton of books 😊
She's so wholesome and kind and dear, I want to be just like her in 30 years (TwT) So much of what she says resonated with me, in terms of acting in general and voice acting in specific, it's just such a brilliant way to spend one's life and one really can never get bored when your job is playing pretend and bringing stories to life
i love portal so much i love ellen mclain she’s so talented omg i loved hearing about her life and her experiences
I love everything about this woman, and i hope more people are like her in the future.
Anyway, this cake is great, It's so delicious and moist

1. Rogue Deleman - Cyberpunk 2077 2020
52:00 oh you poor thing, any gamer that's noot completely out of the loop could probably tell Ellen is talking about Cyberpunk 2077... Well, despite being GlaDOS, I guess she's not omniscient, and it was cute to see hher try to think of it.
hearing her adressing russian story was so surprising. btw she pronounced all last names correctly!!!!!
Yeah, when I first saw it on timeline, I was half-expecting something typical like "why don't they simply make a revolution?" thingy, pleasantly surprised I was wrong.
From 9:34 to 9:40 : "Lots of laughing.." was totally her and GLaDOS, i heared this directly and i'm currently not fully listen to it, because i have it playing in the background
I hear the Overwatch from HL2 😂
She is awesome ❤
3:44
47:47 I'm different
Great old woman!
I seriously cannot believe this woman is the infamous GldDOS
Why?
She's just such a sweet old lady.
♥
I wish she revoiced some lines!
I think I hear some vocal flips on her natural speaking voice that kind of sounds like GLaDOS robotic voice, or is it just me?
What a pleasant person. It's clear Valve hired her for much more than her voice.
We need to hire more older people for these great characters
That didn't work for the Borderlands movie...
Interesting
i flipped my shit when i heard glados in Pacific Rim
what a brilliant human being. she's such a light.
0:44 or she could have said "test subject name here"
What’s the system that makes your voice sound like glados
she's like a charming version of Hillary Clinton
Trur
Oh my _gosh_ I agree.
Without the body count...

I would suggest changing the thumbnail. This will get tons of views instantaneously
To what? Any suggestions?
@@KIWITALKZ Maybe to you two talking. You on one side she on the other. And maybe like some text "this is glados". If people know this is a new present interview they will watch it. Check out thumbnail on this video by chalkeaters she mentioned: ua-cam.com/video/eDB_MXm3cEA/v-deo.html
its so funny that she forgot the name cyberpunk 2077. she mustve just done the role and forgot about it right after
