Today in Houston for the first of my short mini-series on tech + media! This month's special episode starts with The High Tech Texan, known around town as Michael Garfield - and oh does he understand technology! But more than tech, he's also hip to lifestyle, too - so there's plenty to talk about in the studio from this television personality and radio host! (hear more on Michael's 'High Tech Texan Program' from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. weekends on KPRC AM 950). Get ready - today's episode is not only about tech but we talk sports and cars as well! Listen in as we discuss everything from the advances in voiceover technology to what you need now to make your voiceover studio sound better; along with what it takes to make it as a career audio pro. We then venture over to AI (including what you can do to protect your voiceover brand); plus how NBC is bringing the voice talent of the late Jim Fagan to the NBA's 2026 season. Join us!


About the Spotlight Conversations podcast:

Tune in as I invite friends inside my cozy linoleum free recording studio to talk about all things media - radio, television, music, film, voiceovers, audiobooks, publishing - if guests are in the spotlight, we're talkin'! Refreshingly unscripted and unusually entertaining, listen in as each guest gets real about their careers in the entertainment biz, from where they started to how it's going. Settle into my swanky studio where drinks are on ice and the conversation starters are music + media - always a deal breaker for the rock and roll homemaker!
