Shownotes
In ep 181 of “How Do You Say That?!” Karim Kronfli joins Sam and Mark to talk about getting to grips with a summer advertorial that’s full of alliteration, with no time constraint. We have to be playful without going over the top. It’s all about a script being “knowing” and as a voice actor having to give a nod and a wink to your audience. We also have an amazing dramatic piece between a man who’s been in jail and his estranged daughter. Our fun facts are about reality TV, big West End shows and a tease of an NDA!
Our VO question this week is all about what aspects of performance you take from stage work to the mic.

Script 1
And right now, as the world slows for the summer and the sun sets a little later… there’s no better time to slip away with a story of secrets, lies and that final, fatal twist.
Our Holiday Crime Collection brings together 100 years of murderous mischief — from breezy beachside killings to snowbound scandals in country hotels.
Whether you prefer your detectives with deerstalkers or dark pasts, there’s something in our summer stack to keep your suitcase suspiciously heavy.
Script 2
We are responsible for our own actions. No one else.
Like the no one else sitting across from me who got themselves thrown out on the street. Or the no one else took a dead-end job at a petrol station instead of going to vocational school and learning something useful. Or the no one else what got themselves involved with drugs and spent two episodes in rehab.
You spent way too much time feeling sorry for yourself.
