Hey folks...it's been a while!

Not sure if this is the right place for it (moderators feel free to move it), but I recently sat down for a chat with Bill Farmer, the official voice of Disney’s Goofy for over 27 years.

Hope you enjoy it as much as I did recording/editing it. There's a few clips from various Disney shorts and features in there as well, and it was great to hear Bill doing the voices right there in front of me. Amazing stuff: I was like a giddy schoolboy!

Anyhoo, hope y'all enjoy...

I'll also leave you with these links to some cosplay from the same event. There's a few Disney princesses in there, including an amazing Aladdin and Jasmine:

I hope you'll be more active in the forums Loomis. I know a lot of people have missed you

Also that's amazing you got to sit down and talk to the Voice of Goofy himself, Bill Farmer. How did you get to interview him?

Thanks, disneyboy! It has been too long.

I was lucky to be accredited media for the Oz Comic-Con here in Australia. I flew down to Melbourne for the media day and got to chat with Bill Farmer (along with writer artist Phil Jimenez from the comics world).

So strange to hear a voice I knew so well coming out of a man just sitting in front of me. Even got him to do an intro for my podcast as Sam from 'Sam and Max'. :D

Loomis, I sure hope you donned a pair of trousers before interviewing Mr Farmer. :P
