Rick meets Bart in this hilarious, insight-packed episode of Simpsons Declassified as Ian Cardoni, the new voice of Rick Sanchez on Rick and Morty, joins Nancy Cartwright for donuts, deep voice-acting talk, and a surprisingly competitive burp showdown.
Ian shares the intense six-month audition process that led to landing one of animation’s most iconic roles, revealing how a “party trick” impression evolved into a full-fledged performance capable of sustaining brutal fight scenes, emotional beats, and multiverse-level chaos. He breaks down the difference between doing an impression and truly inhabiting a character—creating new catchphrases, delivering fresh material, and protecting your voice through demanding recording sessions.
The episode dives into fan questions from Reddit, including:
Which Rick and Morty character would Bart Simpson get along with?
Do Rick and Morty improvise their lines?
How do voice actors maintain consistency across seasons?
What does a 300-year-old Rick sound like?
Nancy and Ian swap insights on vocal care, sustaining gravelly voices, recording solo vs. ensemble sessions, and the art of delivering ten takes per line. There’s also a heartfelt conversation about purpose, partnership, and how life-changing opportunities often arrive at pivotal personal moments.
And yes—there are donuts. From Fruity Pebbles explosions to a “self-assured” classic glazed that “knows its purpose,” the donut ratings may be as intense as a Rick Prime showdown.
Funny, thoughtful, and packed with behind-the-scenes animation wisdom, this episode is a must-listen for Rick and Morty fans, Simpsons lovers, voice actors, and anyone fascinated by the craft behind iconic animated characters.
