Jim Cummings (Winnie the Pooh, Mickey Mouse Funhouse) joins us this week to give the ins and outs of what it’s like to be one of the forefathers of modern cartoon voice acting through classic recognizable roles in Balto, Aladdin, Winnie the Pooh, and more!
Jim pulls back the curtain, sharing unique tools to the trade that helped advance his career; plus the secret to his tenured success in this industry.
We also talk about the inspiration for memorable characters throughout his career, the nerves of working with Steven Spielberg on Balto, and the origins of his legacy as Winnie the Pooh and Tigger.

I listened to every episode of his podcast in 3 days because of this episode.
Your hair is on point in this episode, at least in the open.
You're LEATHERHEAD from TMNT!?????
Cowabunga!
Loved seeing Jim on here. Man's a legend.
I meet him every chance I get
Blanc was my childhood voice actor. Cummings is great. Please have more of these guys on. Their faces deserve to be seen.
IM JIM CUMMINGS #1 FAN EXCELLENT ACTOR AND VERY VERY VERY NICE GUY
Shout out to leather head from tmnt
I love that he’s a fan of Dennis Prager! His philosophy about happiness changed my life and I can relate to Mr. Cummings so much more that I know he subscribes to the same.
JIM , THANK YOU.
My dream job when I was 15 daydreaming as a worked the register at Walgreens my juvenile brain thought …be a top cartoon voice actor ..I thought drive into LA twice a week to a sound studio, make 200K a year and live on the beach in Malibu …life would be a piece of cake …😂
Jim Cummings was the first voice actor I was a fan of. Since I was 5 or 6. I saw his name in Dumbos circus. Just by chance. And I remembered it. Then, as I got older, I kept seeing that he was playing a ton of characters for Disney. As I became a teenager in the 90s I wanted to be a voice actor because of him, and I found out he was even in a ton of stuff outside of the Disneysphere. I found, over time, the more secret stuff he did, or stuff you dont see in credits but you hear the voice and your like "I think thats Jim Cummings" and I've just always thought he is the biggest legend of voice acting. It's really incredible the work he's done. Next to Frank Welker (who did a ton of monster voices and "sounds" type work) he is truly one of the greatest of all time.
He was even in video games I was playing. Not just Disney stuff, all kinds of stuff (Baldurs gate for example- he's in several of those games). He's incredibly prolific. Its truly inspiring.
Need more voice over actors! Dan Castellaneta would be awesome !
Fantastic episode! You two should work together
Would have loved to hear his thoughts on A.I.
I had the pleasure of meeting Jim this past Sunday. Truly down-to-earth and fun to talk with- a super-talented legend who goes above and beyond for every character and project he does!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This video deserves waaaaaaaay more likes. This man is a legend.
That was too good. What an interview!! Listening to this, I couldn't help but keep smiling while working.
One of my very favorite shows. Thank you.
Its interesting that he did be prepared, it makes you wonder who is standing in on alot of these songs.
Darkwing Duck!
Hearing him do Pooh Bear always warms my heart, but one of my all time favorite Jim characters is Mr. Bumpy from the criminally underrated Bump in the Night
I’ve always tried impersonating Jim’s voices. Pooh is no longer in my range, but when I’m reading books to my kids, I’ll always turn on every voice I can.
Thank you for having a voice actor on. Would welcome more interviews with the expert performers from that end of the entertainment industry.
Loved hearing that he may return as Darkwing!
Dropping into a line and Dropping in a couple oh bothers, a small smackerel would really help.right now.to have that ability for people is in valuable. Glad to hear that Dumbo circus story loved that show.

Jim Cummings as Shocker and Dr Robotnik was the best
I am the Terror that flaps in the night!
I am the voice you hear in your sleep…
