About You Talk Funny
From the publisher's feed
A podcast for language-nerds, theatre-nerds, and plain old nerd-nerds.
Dialect Coach Carrie Hardin helps actors with all kinds of things —whether it’s cramming to learn an accent before that audition, or just figuring out whatever the hell Shakespeare was talking about during this weird part of the play with a bear in it. The questions are always different, but there’s one answer that’s always the same —your voice is amazing.
