      Thank you! I'm so honored that I've gotten to meet and interview several Sonic voice actors. If you haven't seen the rest of my channel, I've also interviewed most of the Sonic X cast, Kirk Thornton, and Pete Capella! Many of them have been touring conventions a lot more, so check your fav actor's social media to see if they're near you.
      There's also the Sonic Expo in November too... which I'll also be at!

Also he voices Greg from ratatoing and as we all know he is objectively the best character from any piece of media ever made. Nothing beats a dead inside Mike Pollock at his lowest going “r a t a t o i n g . “ So glad he’s doing actually well now lmao he deserves it for making my childhood, Eggman Empire forever.

    I think this is a good panel but imo there needs to be some rules about questions to prevent some stupid questions being asked during q&a that just waste everyone's time. Like that first question was so incredibly rude and completely lacking in any basic social ques. Tbf I do have this issue with TONS of panels.

    • @GtotheNextLevel
      @GtotheNextLevel  5 місяців тому +4

      Yeah, I laid ground rules but you know some fans will blurt what they want to without tact. Thankfully, the guests rightfully roasted him. It's also one reason why when I host panels, i have a few questions at the ready to start.
      I was considering removing the first question but I left it in at the actor's requests.

    •  5 місяців тому

      I'm glad my question was a silly one, but I managed to stay professional in the process. However, when being atarstruck it's hard to not feel the need to say/blurt out certain things. Plus, the first questioner I know personally as we went to the same college. That's how he is, he's not a rude person in general he has hard time to express something while trying to be respectful.

    • @Ogrsonic-fz8fw

    • @GtotheNextLevel
      @GtotheNextLevel  5 місяців тому +4

      I get that vibe from him (I’m fairly good at catching that kind of stuff) but at the same time, you really have to think of how that conveys. I don’t think anyone who wants to celebrate their passion by being told that someone else does it “better.” It’s kinda respect 101. It made for a funny one of a kind roast, so it worked out in the end, but I hope he sees this and realizes this for next time.
      However if this is a “that’s just the way they are” situation, then he probably won’t learn.
