Welcome to Jake's Happy Nostalgia Show, the podcast where nostalgia comes alive!
This week, we're joined by two incredible talents who helped shape the voices of our childhoods, Sonja Ball and Rick Jones! Sonja is best known for bringing to life beloved characters such as Wimzie on Wimzie's House, Jane Read (Arthur's mom) on Arthur, Huckle Cat on The Busy World of Richard Scarry, and Spookley from Spookley the Square Pumpkin. Rick voiced C.L.Y.D.E. in C.L.Y.D.E. and Fu-Fu on Sagwa, the Chinese Siamese Cat, and has worked extensively behind the mic as a talented voice director. Together, Sonja and Rick share stories from their careers, the joys and challenges of voice work, and the lasting impact of bringing characters to life that continue to spark nostalgia for fans young and old.
Special thanks to Jeff Zahn for connecting us!
