Episode 166: What Animated Women Want with Maurice LaMarche

Episode notes

This week, Emmy-award winning voice actor Maurice LaMarche chats about his voiceover appearances in The Simpsons. If you don’t know Maurice by name you certainly know his iconic voice work – he’s probably best known as The Brain in “Animaniacs” and “Pinky and the Brain.” His work can also be heard on “Futurama,” “Disenchantment” and many other video games, animated series, television shows and films. He’ll tell us the personal connection he had to the character he voiced in “What Animated Women Want.” We’ll spend a lot of time discussing Maurice’s career including his contributions to “The Critic,” and his time as a stand-up comic. He also chats about what it was like to join Julie Kavner and Dan Castellaneta in studio for his appearance in this episode. You don’t want to miss this one – he’ll gives us a taste of his fantastic impressions and even share some techniques if you want to make some authentic barf sounds.
