🎙️047 | Nathan Osgood: Stage Vet, Jazz Cat, Voice Chameleon
Today's guest is Nathan Osgood, a boundary-blurring actor, voice artist, and jazz musician whose career spans decades and dimensions.
Todd Kramer and Jay Reum dive into a lively, layered chat with Nathan, whose life has taken him from East End pubs to Broadway, BBC editing suites to Cyberpunk 2077, and Soho jazz clubs to West End stages. Adopted by a Native American G.I. and raised by a Cockney mum, Nathan's unique upbringing shaped a chameleon-like versatility that's made him a standout across mediums.
They cover everything from the "hurry up and wait" grind of film sets, to the jazz trio that's been packing out London pubs for years. With stories about Meryl Streep, Cillian Murphy, and narrating Mark Twain, Nathan keeps it both hilarious and heartfelt. Whether you're a theatre purist, a VO nerd, or someone who just wants to stay creatively lit, this one's for you.
