What's the weirdest direction you've ever received in a session? "Read it more magenta"? "Give me rage, but lean toward anger"? "Sound like a potato"?

In this week's episode of The Pro Audio Suite, Robbo, AP, George, and Robert dive into the hilariously bizarre world of VO direction that makes absolutely no sense… and yet somehow still happens every day.

Pulled straight from Robbo's viral LinkedIn thread, this episode is packed with laugh-out-loud moments, real-life war stories, and a bit of therapy for anyone who's ever heard: "That was perfect. Let's do one more." 😵‍💫

PLUS: Why weird direction is your real job to decode as an engineer or producer, and how to turn "less voice, less you" into a usable note.
