About the episode

Matt Baker is the voice of TV promos, national commercials and Discovery Network's thrilling "Shark Week". But, before he was a celebrity voice actor, he was an enlisted Marine. We talked with him about his unlikely entrance into the world of celebrity voice over, his work on Shark Week and the art of making a script come to life. We also hear how his love of reading (while on Navy ships as a Marine) inspired him to become an author. Baker shares details from his latest novel "Strange Circles". It's a crime thriller with a supernatural twist featuring an ex-Force Recon Marine turned detective, who searches for a killer and ultimately must stop a bomb plot in Washington DC. Baker shares some interesting details about his writing process and what it's like living in the nation's Capitol.
