Hunter Lowry interviews Nathan Smythe, who played several roles in "Purgatory, Missouri" including various carnies, pinbots and The Void. Nathan is a man of a trillion voices. When he stepped up to the mic during the audition, I said “Go over the top on this.” That was the scene at the end of Episode 4 when Thirty Eight encounters his first Pinbot. When his cold read was finished, Richard, Maureen, Allyson and I looked at each other like a hurricane just blew back our hair. Recording the scene in the studio with Dave Foley, he delivered again. Hunter was wiping back tears. Along with his alter ego of "DJ Nate" spinning records around town, he has voiced numerous commercials, video games and anime. You have heard him in White Castle commercials, Japanese anime TV shows, gamers know him from his work on the English version of “Fighting Spirit”, “Victorious Boxers: Revolution”, and many, many more.For more information on "Purgatory, Missouri", please visit our website: https://www.stuartpearsonmusic.com/purgatory-missouri

@7:04 reminiscent of the Jack Webb school of basic tv acting, hit your mark exactly as staged and deliver your line verbatim precisely as directed. Two things to remember and complete for each thespian in their contributions to finalize the total productions success! Awesome shows like the second Dragnet evolving to slightly more visible flexibility given, likely due to some of the limited action sequences, in tv shows such as Emergency, and so many other screen gems along the way from the day.
