Voice actors I used to know who were starting out in comedy were guys who did a lot of voices.

I feel like there's so many voices, and it's necessary for there to be a lot of different voices because we can't all like the same art. That would just be so boring... If anybody wants to hear it, I'm here. It makes for a more interesting world for there to be more than one kind of singer.

A lot of times in comedy, and also in podcasting and television, there are different kinds of voices that can be celebrated.
