Since iTunes named his as one of the top podcasts of 2007, BJ Harrison has continued to wow audiences with his voicing skills. Now, over 475 audiobooks later, he still impresses critics and listeners alike. From eldritch witches to young ingenues, from marble mouthed gangsters to Shakespearean Danes, BJ has an astounding array of character voices, dialects, and accents at his fingertips, coupled with an impressive depth of interpretation. Jim McLamore was the cofounder and first CEO of Burger King, creating one of the great fast service restaurant chains in the country together with Dave Edgerton. After selling it to Pillsbury and watching over it for the twenty years, he retired and dedicated his life to servicing the South Florida community as Chairman of the University of Miami and avid member of the Fairchild Tropical Gardens.
