It’s not every day you get to chat with a voicetramentalist. I’m speaking about none other than actor and comedian Michael Winslow.

Michael had breakout performances in the 1980s Police Academy franchise and quickly became known as the Man of 10,000 Sound Effects and was featured in one of my favorite comedies, Mel Brooks’ Spaceballs.

Michael and I are old friends. It was so much fun to talk with him about beatboxing, sound as an artform, and the importance of evolving.

And in case you are wondering, YES! He does sound effects throughout this conversation. Tune in on Youtube also to watch us in person at the Wah Lum Cultural Center!
