A comedy-action writer in L.A., most of my work is hushed by non-disclosure agreements. #RiseoftheTMNT #DCSuperheroGirls #Cardine

In S1 of #rottmnt, we were trying to figure out how much of a couch potato Splinter was. I pitched that he was psyched for a Filipino soap opera cliffhanger, where Tita Letty was just about to reveal her recipe for moose adobo, a nod to his Pinoy/Canadian roots. #ericbauza

My heart also goes out to those who knew him best. Bauza started out in the animation world as a storyboard artist, so seeing him in the trenches with the animation teams always impressed me.

[Russ Carney of America @RCoA]

Eric Bauza was a phenomenal talent. I had the privilege of working with him many times. He was kind, fun, supportive of aspiring voice actors, he came to studio screenings and hung out with the artists who make your favorite shows. RIP Eric and my heart goes to your family.

@FINALLEVEL @SnoopDogg A chill West Coast. Can't help but love that.

The brains behind Pete and Bas are epic slick. Perhaps too slick for fellas to touch. I keep shtum and I ain't tellin' them much...

@AlexDeligiannis I am not an artist, but as someone who has used a pencil, the greatest lie that Big Graphite ever told, is that all of your mistakes will be corrected with an eraser the size of a squirrel nipple. #abort #realtalk

@TheColinStein I see you.

The wildcard of hip-hop, Mr. Kool Keith.

[Russ Carney of America @RCoA]

@TheColinStein I'm not saying I know somebody who might know somebody who possibly knows who the Spine Breaking Bandit was. But if I *did* know a guy who *could* have known, *maybe* he couldn't officially say because he wasn't known for having loose lips. But I'm not saying that I know anybody.

This was recorded in the animatic editing bay, not on professional recording equipment. I also could have benefited from external direction to make my delivery punchier and more playful. I do, however, like "And you, got tricked!"

Behold, Repo Russ!

Might delete later.

[Russ Carney of America @RCoA]

I could have been a contender! My version of Repo sounded a bit more weasel-y than deep-voiced and gruff. I was *almost* the official voice, but I got scooped by the talented Mr. Tatasciore. C'est la vie.

[The Cult of Colin Stein @TheColinStein]

Did you know that staff writer Russ Carney (@RCoA) did some scratch VO for Repo Mantis? RIP Repo Russ! Check it out in #TheArtofRiseoftheTMNT on page 68.

Repo Mantis premiered September, 20 2018

The lovely Miss Dolly Parton might be the last example of pure class that we Americans might have been witness to in our lifetimes. Thank you, beloved lady for every bit of positivity and kindness that you exuded in your lifetime.

[Steve Martin @UnrealBluegrass]

Crushing loss.

AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted is one of the best-written rap albums to drop on the West Coast during my teen years. My niche group of friends and I recited the hell out of it. Mr. @icecube is one of my writing heroes.

Me and the Bomb Squad took the sample era to its peak in 1990. I felt that we could do no wrong.

The Sneetches was a cautionary tale about obsessive, trendy plastic surgery before that was even a thing. It's like a Twilight Zone episode for kids.

[Michael McKean @MJMcKean]

I learned to read with Dr. Seuss books. No regrets, but I did develop a mild sneetch impediment.

How fucking gangster would it be for Metallica to bring this gal on tour for a few legs of the journey, if for no reason other than to support bad-ass musicians from across the globe?

Rusty Lake games are the gold standard of casual, environmental, room escape games. Great vibe, great art, good music. Lots of free play options, and the paid ones are super cheap and worth the $3-4.

Coming soon in our next #SotLDevlog, featuring @LaviniaMeijer #servantofthelake 👀

@AlexDeligiannis Yet another talented Deligiannis!

@Toni_Basil Long live the Lockers in our cultural memory!

DH Peligro was the GOAT of punk percussion! Not only great at breakneck speed, but he had those jazz chops too, as is evident in We've Got a Bigger Problem Now. https://t.co/gnzd6DxWS4

[Punkrock History @PunkRockStory]

In memory of one of the absolute greatest, D. H. Peligro, drummer for the Dead Kennedys, who would have turned 67 today.

06-17-16 - Dead Kennedy's live at House of Blues Chicago - California Über Alles (D.H. Peligro POV)
