String and Tell with Tawny Platis and Kristen DiMercurio

Voice actor Troy Baker is known for bringing iconic characters to life, from Joel in The Last of Us to Booker DeWitt in BioShock Infinite and Indiana Jones in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle but takes a break from the booth to craft friendship bracelets with Tawny while opening up about:

Sharing his work with his 7-year-old son and why playing Indiana Jones together meant more than any paycheck

How reading Meditations by Marcus Aurelius reshaped his view on obstacles, masculinity, and personal growth

The difference between chasing a job and crafting a career

Parenting, modeling behavior, and teaching that intention matters more than “bad words”

Embracing vulnerability, not knowing everything, and the joy of letting others introduce you to something new

From growing up evangelical in Texas to redefining success on his own terms, Troy reflects on art as service, why learning is truly his goal, and how being the “dumbest person in the room” is actually the smartest move.

There’s also a lightning round, opinionated bead choices, and a minimum of three bracelet restarts.

Plus, every bracelet made during this episode will be available for purchase, with 100% of the proceeds going directly to Human Rights Watch, Troy’s chosen non-profit.
