Today's tip on VO work is about getting work. Let's face it... it can be hard getting your VO practice off the ground. There are tons of voice over training products out there, but many are aimed at experienced A-level talent (and many of them are flat out scams)... and that presents a bit of a problem for new talent to the industry. That wasn't me, and I didn't want that. I needed to know the basics first, learn it deeply, apply it via my podcast and other projects, and learn it from someone I know and have confidence in. Which is why I'm so excited about this latest FREE training I just watched from David H. Lawrence XVII: Check it out! notold-better.com/VO Talk About Better™ The Not Old Better Show on Radio & Podcast! Hosted by Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.

Backstory: Family Is Everything, Debut The Not Old Better Show: Backstory Spending time with my family during memorial services made me think about stories of my dad, as well as stories of his dad, who'd passed away many years ago. Ever frighten yourself when you couldn't recall a family story or experiences you know had to have been recounted to you many times by your grandparents? Ever wonder why you know very little about the personal lives of your grandparents or great-grandparents? Aaron Holt of the National Archives and Records Administration, Ft Worth, TX, says that "it only takes three generations to lose a piece of oral family history." If you want to avoid losing those precious family stories passed down through the generations, Holt continued, the story "must be purposely and accurately repeated over and over again through the generations to be preserved." The notion that my family's narratives could be lost in three generations gave him the resolve to ensure that didn't happen on his watch. For the sake of my posterity, as well as yours, I've begun a new Not Old Better Show, with a focus on genealogy, titled "Backstory: Family is Everything." Genealogy is the second most popular hobby in the country, with more than 113 million participants and researchers. Most people want to know more about their roots, origins, home life, work life, social status, relationships, migrations, marriages, health, attitudes, customs, folklore, clothing, foods, environment, and the social issues in the news during the time in which their ancestors lived. And, that's what we'll talk about, and I think you'll learn a lot, enjoy the journey together and find out something interesting about your roots. Today's show is a great one and we'll hear an author story from an anthology of articles in the McClatchy Newspaper in California. The first story, by author VJ Vogelzang, in her book, Beautiful Days. Yes, VJ Vogelzang is my mom, and I thought, given my father's passing, I'd start with some of my mom's writing for purposes of our first oral family history. Enjoy.

#134 Spierig Brothers Interview: Winchester: The House That Ghosts Built Hi, everybody. We're here at the Winchester House, San Jose, California. I've been asked to join the CBS Films team (thank you!) to interview film directors, Peter & Michael Spierig. The new film, titled, "Winchester: The House That Ghosts Built." was filmed, in part, here at the Winchester house. The film is inspired by the real events, led by Sarah Winchester, heiress of the Winchester Repeating Rifle fortune. Sarah Winchester was told by a reader, a psychic that all the dead killed by the Winchester Repeating Rifle, throughout time, will haunt her for all her life on earth. Sarah Winchester then built this house, famously with doors to nowhere, staircases to nowhere, hallways and entries to nowhere. The film stars Helen Mirren as Sarah Winchester. The Winchester House is famous throughout the world, and we're joined tonight by Michael and Peter Spierig. The film is amazing. Enjoy. Talk About Better™ The Not Old Better Show on Radio & Podcast!

#132 The Burr Conspiracy: Interview with James Lewis Smithsonian Associates, Interview Series Our guest today, Dr James Lewis, professor of History at Kalamazoo College, has written a fascinating new book about Aaron Burr, titled, The Burr Conspiracy, Uncovering the Story of an Early American Crisis. In the book, Dr Lewis uses the uncertainty about Burr's intentions in the fall of 1806, and the trouble that followed, to address the role of conspiracy and crisis in our young, newly developed democracy, and the impact it had on politics and political culture. Dr Lewis also looks at how biased newspaper reports, partisan politics, the federal government, and notions of honor and gentility played out in the matter of the "chief villain of the Founding Fathers."

#131 "Marshall" Live Hard. Fight Harder. Review... The Not Old Better Show, Movies for Adults October 2, 2017 is the 50th anniversary of Justice Thurgood Marshall's swearing-in as an associate justice of the Supreme Court of the United States on October 2, 1967. He was the Court's 96th justice and the first African American to hold a seat on the Supreme Court. If you have to see one motion picture this weekend or place a film on your must-see list of fall films, I wholeheartedly recommend Marshall. As the title suggests, the movie is about Thurgood Marshall, the iconic civil rights attorney for the NAACP Legal Defense Fund who used the courtroom to break racial barriers and help decimate institutionalized Jim Crow when he won the 1954 Supreme Court decision in Brown v. Board of Education, which declared state laws that established segregation in schools to be unconstitutional. It is fitting that the movie is being released on the 50th anniversary of Marshall being named the first black Supreme Court justice. Enjoy "Marshall."
