What happens when the voice of Bart Simpson gets behind the controls of a garden railroad?

In this episode of the Bungalow Heaven Railroad, Emmy Award-winning voice actress Nancy Cartwright (Bart Simpson, Ralph Wiggum, Nelson Muntz, Maggie Simpson, and more) visits my hand-built garden railroad in Pasadena… and yes, we let Bart crash a train.

Nancy explores the railroad, shares her personal connection to model trains growing up, and takes the controls to run a train through the garden. Along the way, we talk about creativity, storytelling, and what it takes to bring one of the most iconic animated characters in television history to life.

After the railroad run, we head up to the porch for a conversation covering:

• How Nancy discovered her voice acting talent as a kid
• The origin of Bart Simpson’s voice and how it’s evolved over 30+ years
• Behind-the-scenes stories from The Simpsons (including the legendary monorail episode)
• The art of voice acting, sound effects, and character work
• Why The Simpsons is still going strong after 800+ episodes
• The surprising emotional connection people have with trains
• Advice for anyone pursuing a creative career

There are also some unforgettable moments along the way… including Nancy improvising as Bart while running the railroad, rapid-fire Simpsons character questions, and a chaotic (and very on-brand) train crash.

If you’re a fan of The Simpsons, voice acting, or just love trains and creative storytelling, this is a really fun one.
