- Our Current Trading Wishlist -
We are open to trading for just about anything that brings value to our business or our lives. Here is what we are actively hunting for right now:
Building the Ultimate Travel Rig
We are currently developing a new, ultra-lightweight and travel-friendly portable VO studio. We are actively looking to trade for specialized compact gear cases, mobile acoustic treatment, or innovative travel tech.
For the Trail & Beyond
We are avid hikers and love hitting the trails in the Pacific Northwest and the Southwest. High-quality outdoor gear, custom bespoke hats, or curated vintage clothing always catch our eye.
Fuel for the Booth
We love a great meal after a long session. Pitch us your premium cuts of wild game—like bison, elk, or venison—or a stellar Willamette Valley Pinot Noir to add to our collection.
Surprise Us!
Do you have an incredible B2B service, a unique physical product, or an experience that doesn't fit into these boxes? We love a good surprise. Pitch us your best idea!

🚫 Why We Avoid “In Perpetuity” Usage
Voice actors license their work like music or photography. “Forever” use restricts future work, limits our career, and undercuts industry standards. Flexible terms ensure fairness for everyone.
💡 Note: Session Fees are separate from usage rates and cover the voice actor’s time and performance.
