Radio Labyrinth Presents - Interviews - Billy West

Radio Labyrinth Presents - Interviews - Billy West This week on Presents Tim and Jeff sit down with one of their longtime heroes, legendary voice actor, Billy West. Billy West was born in 1952 in Detroit, Michigan. Best known for his work on Ren & Stimpy, West has a career in radio and television that began in the 1980's when he did comedic impersonations for Charles Laquidara's Big Mattress morning show on Boston's WBNC FM radio network. By the mid-90s, he had moved to doing impersonations on The Howard Stern Show, giving him greater exposure. From there, West became involved with the Nickelodeon shows Doug and Ren & Stimpy. Portraying the title characters on both shows, Billy West saw his voiceover work reach an even larger, yet younger audience. This led to Warner Bros. hiring him for the film Space Jam in 1996. Featuring Chicago Bulls legend Michael Jordan and the cast of Looney Tunes, West voiced Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd, two characters whom he has sporadically voiced throughout the next decade. He is also known for his portrayal of Philip J. Fry on the cartoon Futurama, which began in 1999 and has continued on through a number of changes including a new 20 episode run ordered in 2022. In addition he is also the voice of the iconic Red M&M. #BillyWest #Disenchantment #Futurama #RenAndStimpy #HowardStern #SpaceJam #RedMandM #Fry #Doug #VoiceActor #VoiceActing #impressionist #Comedy #RadioLabyrinth #Atlanta Checkout the Video Version this episode:    • Radio Labyrinth Presents - Interviews - Bi...   _________________________________________________________ Guest: Billy West Interviewers: Tim Andrews and Jeff Leiboff Video edited and produced by Dustin Lollar _________________________________________________________ Leave a Comment and a Like!
