It's the honor of my life to have narrated @themonstersknow.com's new book, which released from @simonandschuster.bsky.social today.

I have one of Keith's books on my bedside table, and have been playing D&D since I was 8 and DMing since I was 16, so this was a Pinch Me moment for sure.

GOOD LUCK! 💪😤

Yeah, I saw a bunch of people announce this cool-looking cats game today that they were all cast in. I was like, I didn't even see that casting call if it was public. Maybe it wasn't - I don't know.

Thank you so, so much!!! I'm really honored and can't believe that this was the role that led to my first ever nomination. Really, thank you for trusting me with Giv!

I am totally and completely floored. I have just learned that I have been nominated for a 2025 One Voice Award for Best Performance in an Audio Drama by a Male.

WHAT!?

Congrats to all the nominees - you set a high bar which I strive to emulate every day.

Thanks, @strangekindstudio.bsky.social !

Honestly, I blame the airline for abbreviating the months to 3 letters each. Would it have killed them to write out June and July? If they had, I wouldn't have missed it.

I once showed up to the airport for my flight a month late. It was "Jun 6" and I showed up on "Jul 6." They were like... "Yeah... your flight was a month ago."

Next on up, please give a round of applause and a great big shout out to another new cast member who will be making his debut appearance in Season 3, Episode 4. It's the astounding @gmhakimvo.bsky.social !!! 💜🖤

Has anyone ever gotten any work (or auditions) from @voquent.bsky.social? I've been on it for a few years and have been sent exactly zero auditions from them and have booked zero jobs.

Thanks for the tag, D!

Attention Dubbers! I am talking to a company about dubbing, and they are asking for my dubbing rates for finished hours of audio. As far as I know, dubbing is based on working hours and not finished audio hours. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. What would you say to them?

Thanks, friends! I thought I had them both. I don't know if that's hubris or confidence...

One of my big goals for 2025 is to narrate a LitRPG title. I've played D&D and Final Fantasy since I was 8 years old - this is right in my wheelhouse. So far, two auditions, not hired for either, though I was proud of both auditions. Come on, universe - make it happen!

Just submitted - I was a classroom teacher for 17 years and am craving more eLearning work. Thank you so much for posting this. I'd be happy to help.

I'm sorry - I am not accepting unpaid work at the time. I was unaware this was an unpaid casting call. Best of luck with the production!

Take a listen - I can play that role: www.gmhakim.com. Thanks for listening.

Favorite way for casting to collect auditions: Dropbox

Acceptable: Attach mp3 to email

Just ok: Google Form

Annoying: Google Drive link

Least favorite way: Discord

But to be fair, am I willing to do all of these? Yes. Yes, of course.

NJ native here w/NY and NY accents. Is this a paid or unpaid project? Can you tell me more about it?

Hey look! It's me!

Audiobook nightmare phrase of the day: "I can't speak to specific instances."

We're pleased to welcome GM Hakim to the cast in S5E09 Hierarchy of Needs as Dr. Linton @gmhakimvo.bsky.social #CastPhotos

Audiobook nightmare phrase of the day: "two breakfast-less Sundays passed."

Well, I just got a few major thumbs ups on my auditions on Bodalgo, for which I used my "fake British/mid-Atlantic/neutral" accent rather than my normal American accent. That is heartening to see! Makes my Monday!

I want to give a shoutout to @girlmadeofjade.bsky.social for posting this snippet of me and her in a doctor's interview gone horribly wrong for @thestoragepapers.com horror podcast recently. Or gone right, depending on whose perspective you take.

Yes... sweet... help...

:-D Wonderful to act alongside you! What an episode!

Audiobook nightmare phrase of the day: "grasped an aft gate handle."

Remember when it was so cool if you knew the college tour guide? They'd be mid-tour, and you'd be all, "Hey, Joe!" and all the high school kids and their families would think, "What a great community!" Haha... simple times...

Of course - please let me know what the projects entail and what your budget is. Feel free to DM me and tell me about the project, and I'll be happy to work with you.
