Would I like to play the lead? You bet. Absolutely. But I get to have fun and I don't have to shave when I go to work.

Mel Blanc passed away in '89, and they held auditions, and I did my first job [as Porky Pig] in 1990.

For people who want to get into the voiceover industry, even if you want to get into commercial, you need to become a really, really good actor.

Fortunately, we have writers who very much respect the classic characters and the integrity of the classic characters, that are also terrific comedy writers and are able to put these classic characters in new and interesting, and quite funny situations for today.

I'm fortunate in that I'm what you call a utility player, in that I can take a scene, if there's five or six minor characters in a scene, that need voice and personality [and] I can supply those characters.

It sounded nothing like the classic That's all folks that the character did. So everytime I'm asked to do it - and nine out of ten Looney Tunes shows ends with Porky coming out saying That's all folks - I'll say to them, which one do you want?

All characters have a voice but not all voices have character. And it's all about character and personality.

There's no such thing as good voices. Because there's no such thing as bad voices. There are only good actors and bad actors.

I love pork. I love a good BLT. I know that sounds horrible but I do. I'm a total foodie. I love cooking and I love traveling and I love finding new places to eat and new cuisines to eat. Don't be shocked if you see me munching down on a baby back rib.
