I’m hoping we’ll get at least Ryan and Jason at Sonic Expo this year! I’m still sad that I ran out of time and couldn’t get an interview with Ryan like I did with the other actors last year.
Due to Roger being an OG fan, it's my responsibility to also be an OG and know that he started off voicing Sonic at Alton Towers for Sonic Spinball, MONTHS before Free Riders and Colours.
@@Sonichronik I wonder if Roger still gets asked to recreate that recording nowadays.

Who's that dope Shadow fan with the drip at 37:35? LOL. Thanx again for the opportunity, G! Much love to the VAs that came out and made that Expo SUPER fun!
Thank you! I'm so honored that I've gotten to meet and interview several Sonic voice actors. If you haven't seen the rest of my channel, I've also interviewed most of the Sonic X cast, Kirk Thornton, and Pete Capella! Many of them have been touring conventions a lot more, so check your fav actor's social media to see if they're near you. There's also the Sonic Expo in November too... which I'll also be at!
I'm watching this after returning home from watching the Sonic Frontiers Panel at MCM Comic Con London. I was THIS CLOSE to getting my question answered, but they pulled the plug as they were running short of time.
Mike Pollock’s the truest OG here taking over after Deem passed, he’s the one I’m most nostalgic for for sure lol. Absolute legend and chad lol. Also he voices Greg from ratatoing and as we all know he is objectively the best character from any piece of media ever made. Nothing beats a dead inside Mike Pollock at his lowest going “r a t a t o i n g . “ So glad he’s doing actually well now lmao he deserves it for making my childhood, Eggman Empire forever. May Eggman get his truest times to shine in the games to come
Thank you! I don't know if you've seen the other videos on my channel, but i have a bunch of other Sonic voice actor panel videos and interviews, if you like!
Great job on hosting this amazing panel! G was a perfect choice for this no doubt. Such a great lineup of voice actors from the BEST SERIES EVER! SONIC!!!!
Aww, many of the Sonic voice actors have been making more appearances at conventions since the movies so there might be one around you where one will be at. I don't know if you're near Dallas, TX, but in November there is the Sonic Expo!
@GtotheNextLevel I wish! I got to meet Jon st John at Midwest Gaming Classic. He's awesome! I also met Bryce Papenbrook at MC3 and Keith Silverstein at Youmacon, and they were also awesome!
@johnleone1996 I got the meet Jon St John a few years ago and he signed my Duke Nukem 3D Mega Drive game. If you like, look in my 3 Gaming Items video series; I told the story of meeting him!
I doubt the people on the panel will ever see this, but as someone that was born a month before the first Sonic game and grew up with the franchise, these VAs are my favorite incarnation of the characters :)
Awesome interview G really enjoyed it and I am very excited for I will be at the MCM comic con in London this Friday seeing the cast of Sonic Frontiers sadly not Mike but definitely Roger, Colleen, Rayan and David thanks for sharing this 👍💙🦔
I think this is a good panel but imo there needs to be some rules about questions to prevent some stupid questions being asked during q&a that just waste everyone's time. Like that first question was so incredibly rude and completely lacking in any basic social ques. Tbf I do have this issue with TONS of panels.
Yeah, I laid ground rules but you know some fans will blurt what they want to without tact. Thankfully, the guests rightfully roasted him. It's also one reason why when I host panels, i have a few questions at the ready to start. I was considering removing the first question but I left it in at the actor's requests.
@@GtotheNextLevel that and some of the questions here are just so stupid and impossible for the va's to answer. I think another rule should be to only ask questions related to the va's work like how they conjured up a character voice, etc

I'm glad my question was a silly one, but I managed to stay professional in the process. However, when being atarstruck it's hard to not feel the need to say/blurt out certain things. Plus, the first questioner I know personally as we went to the same college. That's how he is, he's not a rude person in general he has hard time to express something while trying to be respectful.
I get that vibe from him (I’m fairly good at catching that kind of stuff) but at the same time, you really have to think of how that conveys. I don’t think anyone who wants to celebrate their passion by being told that someone else does it “better.” It’s kinda respect 101. It made for a funny one of a kind roast, so it worked out in the end, but I hope he sees this and realizes this for next time. However if this is a “that’s just the way they are” situation, then he probably won’t learn.
Fun fact Roger creek smith was Originally tried out for ether Luffy and sanji from one piece Naruto & Is the funny bruce lee character name rock Lee from Naruto series & of course the wise cracking himself sonic the hedgehog but he Did not get the other characters from different series but he When is the rolebof the main Protect. Sonic the hedgehog himself
Can you ask Roger why he's not reprising his role as Daigo Dojima in the new Yakuza games called "Like A Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name" and "Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth"?
I'm not sure when the next time I'll see him, but like most times I hear that kind of question get asked at panels to voice actors… the “why are you not recast” question. I'm fairly confident that it was not for lack of him wanting to reprise the role.
@@Sonichronik people got mad at him on Twitter for reposting his friend's pro-Israel song. Mike is Jewish. just a situation that got blown out of proportion because of Mike's poor response to the criticism imo
@@GtotheNextLevel yeah, at least he was called out on the spot - and more people have an example of what *not* to do at a panel. You’re always a great host, thanks for sharing!!
I hate to say this, that true actually. I usually prefer more Ryan Drummond (Dreamcast) and Jason Griffith (4Kids). But it not right to say front of them so I just respect.
I DIDN'T KNOW THAT ROGER CRAIG SMITH IS A FAN OF SONIC SINCE THE BEGINNING
He is an OG!
He is the video game actor
but now he's ummm yeah he's still a sonic fan for like almost 33 years
Yeah since Sonic Colors
He's not
Incredible 🔥 All we need now is a panel with Ryan, Jason, and Rodger together!
I’m hoping we’ll get at least Ryan and Jason at Sonic Expo this year! I’m still sad that I ran out of time and couldn’t get an interview with Ryan like I did with the other actors last year.
@@GtotheNextLevel may I ask has there been at attempt to get roger at sonic expo?
@Ogrsonic-fz8fw I can’t answer that unfortunately but you can always ask the Sonic Expo on Twitter!
@@GtotheNextLevel Also add in Jaleel, Ben and Martin!
Great to see Dave and Keith here. Always glad to have "other" people and not just the usual Roger, Colleen and Mike combo
I wish we could have gotten Dan Green in the panel too as he was a guest at Game On too, but he had a scheduling conflict.
Due to Roger being an OG fan, it's my responsibility to also be an OG and know that he started off voicing Sonic at Alton Towers for Sonic Spinball, MONTHS before Free Riders and Colours.
CHECK OUT THE CONSOLES! WOAHHHHHHHHHHHH!

I’m with him I’m also a shadow fan🖤💎😁
I was there! I was the shadow with the big wig and everyone looked at me when Roger brought up the "toots"
Man, I wish I could have gotten some footage of you for the video, you looked amazing!
This is so awesome!! I only wish I was able to be there, meeting the people who bring my absolute favorite characters to life would be sick!

Oh no, sorry that happened to you! Let me know your thoughts when you get to watch it.
Great panel! Also great editing by G, I appreciate the cut to Roger's rap for added context. Thanks!
Thank you! And i couldn't resist the flashback cause it was too good.
Thank ya boi for both questions from them panels. Lol ❤🎉😂

Thank you so much G! You do a great job at interviews!💙

@@GtotheNextLevel Of course I have! But thank you!💙I love your individual interviews with Jason Griffith, Pete Capella, Lisa Ortiz etc… 💙💙
I'm glad that Keith is here, especially since he really isn't in the series that much.
Me too! It was so cool meeting him. Dan Green was there as well, but unfortunately he couldn't make the panel.
@@GtotheNextLevel Too bad. Dan is my favorite Knuckles.
I forgot I said what I said at 34:36... lol.
I mean, you're right though!
Great job on hosting this amazing panel! G was a perfect choice for this no doubt. Such a great lineup of voice actors from the BEST SERIES EVER! SONIC!!!!
I was there! It was amazing to meet all the Sonic VA’s there!
I'd love to meet all of them, especially Mike Pollock since I grew up with him as the maniacal, mechanical egg-shaped man!
Aww, many of the Sonic voice actors have been making more appearances at conventions since the movies so there might be one around you where one will be at. I don't know if you're near Dallas, TX, but in November there is the Sonic Expo!

Roger Craig Smith was Chris Redfield in Re5 and Batman/Bruce Wayne in Arkham Origins
@@16BitPete He also voices Captain America in a lot of Marvel studf
The person who asked the first question was super rude.
Agreed. At least the guests roasted him for it.
omg that first questioner... wtf? LOL
Yeah... but the guests rightfully took care of them. Tact is hard for some, I get it.
Awesome panel and really well edited!
Thank you so much!! I didn't want it to just be a dump of the panel, that's no fun. :p
Iranian brother?!
Aw I should of been there
Hopefully they will be back next year!
9:00 - Jiminy Glick. Wanna make one feel old, Mike, TRY ED GRIMLEY! XD
Mike's culture references are always a blast from the past. You should see the interview I had with him at the Sonic Expo last year!
That was so cool! ^^
Thanks Speedy! Glad you enjoyed it.

Thank you so much as always!!
It's kinda funny that G wore the exact same shirt as he did 2 years ago.
It’s my interview shirt!!
(Seriously though, I just bought a new Sonic Hawaiian shirt for this year :p)
@@GtotheNextLevel There was that one interview with Lisa Ortiz, where you didn't wear it. But guess it was before you bought or something.
@rommelgonzalez2730 Oh that was years ago, well before I got that shirt. My first voice actor interview!
@@GtotheNextLevel I Knew it.

Sonic the hedgehog himself
Is this confirmed, did he say this somewhere? That sounds awesome tbh, he would have smashed it at both of those roles

@@GtotheNextLevel Okay.
It was so awkward to listen to the first guy "asking" the first question to the fan Q&A. All that, at the beginning, was necessary?
It wasn’t, but the actors put him in his place. I was going to take him out but I left his roast in the video at their request(s).
Yes! ❤ awesome was hoping to see this uploaded ❤
Thank you! I appreciate your patience. I've got more panels that I hosted that I hope to upload soon, including another with Colleen!
Where’s Jason Griffith voice actor for shadow 🖤💎
He was not a guest there. I did interview him at the Sonic Expo last year. Check the Sonic Expo videos on my channel and you’ll see it!
@@GtotheNextLevel awwwww 😕
Yo!!! This is so cool!!!!
Thank you!!
@@GtotheNextLevel no problem!!
I take it Cindy couldn't make it?
Unfortunately no.
@GotheNextLevel, what ? No Amy Rose ? You forgot to invite Cindy Robinson ?
She wasn’t a guest there.
@@GtotheNextLevel you should’ve invited her there
@Spider-Bro-dm8xg I was just the emcee for the panel, I don’t run the convention.
@@GtotheNextLevel well there’s always next time, it’s all good bro
Was this before or after mikes recent situation?
As the title says, the panel occurred during Game On Expo 2024.
Recent situation? Care to elaborate?
@@Sonichronik people got mad at him on Twitter for reposting his friend's pro-Israel song. Mike is Jewish. just a situation that got blown out of proportion because of Mike's poor response to the criticism imo
@@lookatdemijipers Yeah, that's not his fault. I'm not picking sides on the war in Israel, but it honestly just sounds like people overreacted.
Let’s just leave it at that with this discussion, please. Thank you. Appreciate you watching.
First question guy needs to get a life. Shouldn’t have been allowed to ask his after he opened his mouth insulting Roger and Dan, such a loser.
I only let it go cause he got rightfully roasted by them. And left it in the video at the request of the actors.
@@GtotheNextLevel yeah, at least he was called out on the spot - and more people have an example of what *not* to do at a panel.
