Fuck, how embarassing does it have to be for most radio commercials to be matched by a dude with audacity, royalty free music and (I'm not kidding) 28 minutes worth of time between writing/recording/editing?

Oh, immensely embarassing.

Problem of course is most US DJs seem to literally lack both self-awareness and also the capacity to experience shame, so...

...it kind of horseshoes around back to them just thinking you're the stupid one actually, because you don't have as many listeners or know someone personally that they do.

Now that I think of it, radio djs and most talkshows are literally prime candidates for replacing with AI.

And oh holy fuck do not even get me started on how sports commentators are the masters of filling time with literally meaningless babble, they're masters of pathos and ethos, but almost nothing they say bares any resemblance to a logically evaluatable claim.

But yeah, I too can just drop into a 'golden radio voice' at the flick of a switch, figured out how to do it basically right after my vocal cords stopped changing from puberty... but there's no point other than using it to make a joke, basically?

Autism = tonal analysis capability + practice = voice actor, I guess?
