And now for something completely different: Today's Talent Spotlight shines on the one and only Barry Carl, bass singer of the a ca****la group carrying this fun spot we did for Staples way-back-when.

Turn it (way) up!

No series with "talent" in the name could possibly omit the next subject of Oink's Talent Spotlight. I refer of course to the always-smiling, super-talented Chris Phillips. Chris is truly one of the nice guys in our biz and nails it every time. Here he is as the "moderator" in this spot for the DC Lottery.

Today's Talent Spotlight features one of our all-time favorite actors: Lynne Lambert. Lynne is as sweet as they come, great as you'll find, and we go way back together.
Enjoy her performance as "Morning Lady" in this spot we did for Texaco Star Mart.

The subject of today's Talent Spotlight is the legendary Beau Weaver. Beau is an industry icon and we had the immense pleasure of working with him several times. This is a spot we did for Buffalo Wild Wings...one of tons we did for them and their agencies over the years. Beau is (of course) the Announcer.

We pulled out the Big Guns for this ensemble spot we did for Staples way-back-when. The always marvelous Jim Conroy is "Dad", the kids are great, and Mike Shapiro wraps it all up as VO.
But today's Spotlight focuses on April Ortiz who plays "Mom." April always shines bright with her comedic talent, plus she's awesome to work with. Enjoy.

The focus of today's Talent Spotlight is the super-great, consummate pro Larry Kenney, who 'brings it' as the VO in this spot we did about 15 years ago. Larry bookends a dispute between two famous siblings in this fun spot for Amp Energy Drink. Writing credit goes to Tommy Troncoso.

We've worked with Jim Bracchitta for not just years - but decades. Maybe the friendliest voice actor in the biz and for sure one of the best to work with. He didn't even bat an eye when we asked him to deliver one of his lines in Navajo for this Chilis spot.
Nailed it.
Jim Bracchitta: in this week's Talent Spotlight.

Another in a series.
Because no one ever said, "change the station, I want to hear another radio commercial."

There are certain spots that stick with you over the years as being especially fun to produce... We handled this one, for IKEA, in Oink's LA studio way-back-when.
One of the reasons it was so much fun was Rachel Cannon's performance as "Linda."
Brooks McBeth - who's equally awesome - plays Linda's coworker.

Some of our favorite projects involved the subject of today's Talent Spotlight. Ralph Byers has incredible range and we knew we were in for a great session every time we booked him. A giant talent & a great guy, too.

Here he is as "Barney" in a spot from way back for the Dallas Morning News.

10-year study reveals, among other things, "radio advertising delivers a $10.59 return for every dollar spent."

A new study from marketing expert Peter Field proves AM/FM radio ads boost brand awareness, pricing power, and profitability.

TURN IT UP. (But not too loudly.)

Jim Murtaugh isn't just one of our all-time favorite voice actors to work with, he's basically a shoe-in for anything we have that requires...well...'droll.'

He's delivered the VO on some of our most successful campaigns, ever.

He does it again here in a spot for Rainbow Foods, Called "Babysitter." Some say it's one of the best spots we ever did, and it's no coincidence that Jim's the one bringing it home.
