The Voice Of Naruto Was Almost A Real Life Spy?! | Episode 4

[@EStramel09]

I love how casually Maile was like “I was crashing on my sister’s chair, waiting to be a spy because I applied. My dad was a spy.” Like it was no big deal. That’s super awesome!

What is your favorite episode Even Stevens

[@mikesilva3868]

Christy have you seen denver the last dinosaur cartoon series 👍

[@PhoenixGamerxx96]

Do you remember watching Arthur, Clifford, and Dragon Tales from the 90s and 00s?

[@gokufan4828]

Naruto :D cant wait every episode has been great

[@PhoenixGamerxx96]

How awesomely odd that Maile went from voicing a mystic ninjago to a cartoon pig from 'Jakers! The Adventures of Piggley Winks'?

[@fall93of19sobriety]

She didn't really need to change her voice for Naruto so just hearing her talk I just picture Naruto sitting there talking.

[@eliababebayehu2894]

Me too I think the same way as you do

[@TheWiseGrif]

I can't believe you're having an episode with Maile, i'm so happy

[@Platinum400]

“Believe it!”

[@markeyiszra]

Crazy Fact: Naruto English and Indonesian Dub both played a small role in a same scene of Ice Age 3. Maile Flanagan (Naruto English Dub) voice Little Johnny mom while Hana Bahagiana (Naruto Indonesia Dub) voice Little Johnny.

[@jwelch5742]

Maile Flanagan won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Performer in an Animated Program for playing Piggley Winks in Jakers! The Adventures of Piggley Winks.

[@bloodgrass2519]

My heart melted when they talked about Mary Elizabeth Mcglynn. I love Mary, Talented actress, director, AND singer. I hope she will be on the podcast sometime soon!!

[@MattZRJSRoxy]

agreed I remember Mary when she worked on Digimon when she was basically like the main person there but also did voices basically they gave her more responsibility as of Season 3 which was Digimon Tamers I remember she did the computer voice of “Matrix Digivolution” for digivolution sequences and she did the voice of Ophanimon in Frontier

[@ClintonSimon228]

Another awesome episode. I'm really hoping to see Keith David, Cree Summer, or Phil Lamar. They were voices of my childhood along with Kevin Conroy.

[@gavinkidder1317]

Keith David is a must for me, you talk to Batman you have to talk to Goliath

[@dangoodrich8870]

Maile is great! I have been a Naruto fan since 05/06 when I was first introduced to it on Toonami! Been one of my favorite anime of all time!

Started watching Naruto during the pandemic. Was like "why not?" Love it. Shippuden is even better. I think i like it more than dbz, the music is the coolest

[@jeremycoleman2736]

So Cool! Maile Flanagan is probably the best voice actress to play Naruto. Believe it!

[@angelb33ts]

I distinctly remember seeing Maile Flanagan in Lab rats and screaming NARUTO!!? The kids I was babysitting looked at me like I was crazy 😂

[@christycarlsonromano]

She's so cool!

[@nolashdemon]

Yo same! My little brother was watching Lab Rats when he was a kid and I was just folding laundry, had no idea she was on the show until I hear her and I yelled "Oh her it's Naruto" My brother knew Naruto but he didn't believe me at first lol

[@SamiandJustinShenanigans]

If she hasn’t written an autobiography she NEEDS to, her stories are fascinating I love this 🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@CandyCane23049]

Omg, I hope you'll get Johnny Yong Bosch as well. Power Ranger and Ichigo from Bleach. Along, with other voices, his career has been amazing.

[@kelonpie]

Don't forget Broly!

[@jonathanarias9075]

Yes me must he on the show

[@thesoccergirl30]

I began watching Naruto in middle school. I am now 26 and my husband and I still rewatch epsiodes and watch tons of other anime together. Series like Naruto are examples of our childhood/teen hood growing with us. It is a funa nd wonderful experience to share such interests with loved ones for years.

[@irremedy]

She is genuinely one of the most fascinating people I have ever heard on a show like this.

[@mikeariagno2014]

Maile is that great character actor that you have seen a million times but the average person does not know her. Another great interview, keep it up. Christy don't leave Texas for LA., keep those visits short. We like you here.

[@christycarlsonromano]

She's a legend. I'm not leaving TX - lol.

[@animegamelover6368]

I grew up watching Jakers and I always enjoyed Maile's performance as Piggley Winks. Plus Maile is super duper awesome as Naruto!

[@thobat14]

God I would never have thought Malie would have such a crazy life THIS was such a great guest and I love how she never saw any cartoons as kid. If you told me the voice of Naruto could have been a spy I would have said there is no way! Great guest and love this podcast!

[@SoulKnightKing]

PLEASE. GET CREE SUMMERS. SHE DID EVERYTHING

[@MsLadyGG]

I met Maile at a con a few years ago and she was so nice.

[@christycarlsonromano]

She's the best!

[@alycia_11]

It would be so cool to see you both talk to Nancy Cartwright and Tara Strong! They are such icons

[@MattZRJSRoxy]

definitely especially Nancy since she did the voice of Ron’s Rufus the mole rat in both the series and the movie. She was also Bart Simpson and she was also the second voice of Chuckie one of the titular Rugrats and she also does the voice in the reboot

[@kelonpie]

5:03 Whooooooa! She just finishing recording Boruto ep 190! Man I can't wait to see the English dub for Kawaki's fight!

[@cadeevans4623]

I remember maile Flanagan is lab rats she was great in that show one of my favorite Disney shows Christy grew up watching lab rats she was great in it

I live in Hawaii and I see Mary and Steve every now and then they are really cool people. Met them the first time at a convention here in Kona before they decided to move here. Amazing people.

[@jocelynreyes2898]

Omg this unlocked a child hood memory of me loving JAKERS!!! I totally forgot about that show!

[@lydiabrasser2920]

Love her!! I enjoyed watching Naruto/Shippuden. I’m currently rewatching the series. Can’t wait to watch while eating ramen tomorrow!! 🍥🍜

[@crashspyrofan98]

I grew up on toonami and cartoon network in the 2000s

[@endamcnabola]

She voiced Piggley?! Now I hear the resemblance! I grew up watching that show and it's dear to my heart since I'm from Ireland.

[@MattZRJSRoxy]

I remember her on Lab Rats I think she was like a Principal or something wait did you say Mary Elizabeth McGlynn? She’s a legend since she was one of the people in charge of the Digimon dub as of Season 3 and she generally remained throughout Disney’s ownership of the dub rights as one of the main voice directors of course she wasn’t in charge of it for Digimon Data Squad

[@vanessahobbes3072]

I love that you are featuring voice actors!

[@SikhLP]

I'm 23.. turning 24.. i started watching Naruto at the age of 3. I thank you for everything.

[@Prior2Popular]

Bruh, I never knew Principal Perry was a highly successful voice actor... I’m shook

[@mikechicago6200]

The longest time I never wonder who voiced Naruto but only use later in the 2010s I realized it was a woman and I still couldn't believe that the voice of Naruto was also Jake from the tales of piggley wink you learn something new everyday about her also I believe she was in Lab Rats

[@BlackADHDcoach]

I love Maile as a character actor so I was excited to learn more when I saw her in the trailer!

[@metawolf987]

I only knew her from Lab Rats, I had no idea she voiced Naruto.

[@christycarlsonromano]

Yup!

[@anar8343]

I can't believe it was only until she mentioned lab rats did i realize it was her. I was about to say, like, "she looks like the principal from lab rats" 😂

[@MattZRJSRoxy]

@@anar8343 when I saw her I was trying to figure out why she was so familiar since I recognized her and her voice but I couldn’t figure it out until she mentioned Lab Rats

[@AliceTitan1995]

She is also now playing in Tiger and Bunny 2!! I just finished the first episode and had to check the credits to make sure! I grew up listening to her play Naruto, I knew it right away.

[@erikravey8313]

Only thing I would change about this podcast is having them announce the next episode's guest at the end of the episode.

[@shelbyg-washyourownbrain4542]

"Youre gonna love this.....its TWISTER but we're all covered in JAM" 😂😂😂 I'm definitely going to be pulling that one out in the future!

AHHHH Cant wait to meet her at Kawaii Kon (Hawaii) 💕 😭 been watching Naruto since 2003, started with Japanese then switched over English dub when they started airing them on Toonami ✌🏼

[@Saphiya17]

Just started watching bc of Will's other podcast (love you Will!) and I loveeee this episode!!! Huge Naruto fan here, and although I never watch dubbed, I have much respect and appreciate everyone who's a part of bringing Naruto to the world. So giddy you guys brought in Anime to your podcast 😁

[@Gokulosestoavirus]

It’s awesome to hear that Viz only lets her do Naruto. She knows her voice is that character, and they let her role with it.

[@michaelkemmer]

Some voice actors i would love to see on here are Frank welker Tara strong Billy west Kath souicie Cree summer Rob Paulson Jim Cummings

[@MattZRJSRoxy]

definitely would like to see all of those but I’d also like Tara Jayne to be on the show She’s done lots of Pokémon voices when 4Kids had the rights notably Bulbasaur, Richie or Ritchie, Bugsy and Jasmine.

[@stacyscooby8488]

[@charlieedwards4331]

I was one of those people who binged Naruto during quarantine after the world shut down!

[@closer5342]

39:30 Will talking about meeting Brad Pitt once: “You stand next to someone for like 5 minutes then you’re basically best friends…” I am rolling because I just started listening to you guys, and I have been telling all of my friends about the show. I told one of my friends that I think he and Will would get along and he reminded me of a picture I sent him back in 2012 of Will and I at a block party, so by Will’ definition… He and I are basically best friends and he comes over my house all the time. Hahaha You guys are amazing at this for so many different reasons. Keep up the amazing work!

[@alyshaproctor5711]

I love love love this channel so much, I'm very much with Will and geek out over animation. I'm an artist that would love to work in animation buttt until then this podcast definitely helps the motivation and serotonin 🤣

[@AJ-si8ow]

I was just wondering how did y'all get into the voice acting industry? It's something I have been looking into more and more lately. Especially since I have been in a nostalgic phase ( p.s. The Kim Possible and Batman Beyond theme songs are absolute treats to listen to while studying). Not sure if I want to pursue it but I do enjoy voice acting just as a hobby at the moment.

[@inukimeko]

This was great to listen to. The conversation was so good and interesting as it jumped around topics. Also you guys still keep the convo on track.

[@rdp16rulez]

I still like Paulson's podcast due to the line readings at the end, but I love the idea of actors voicing fan art. It's such a fun segment.

[@zackfitzlive3723]

@@rdp16rulez absolutely. I was just meaning that rob used to tell (sometimes) inappropriate or dark jokes. This is more family friendly

[@MsLadyGG]

Do voice actors for anime and non anime acknowledge one another? Or do you just know on who did your show?

I had no idea that Will met Brad Pitt thats so awesome, hes one of my favorite movie actors next to Johnny Depp :) and i didnt know Maile met Jim Carrey and did 2 movies with him hes another one of my faves :)

since you mentioned critical role, you should get the cast of critical role since they also do a lot of voices, Matt Mercer, Laura Bailey. But do you know who is up your alley? Ashley Johnson since she has worked for Disney before and has voiced Gretchen in Disney's recess

wasn’t Ashley the same person that was on Growing Pains?
