Lyssa Graham is your weird friend. And the cast’s weird friend. Apparently, she’s weird. She lives on an island next to Texas with her husband and superhero son. There are some dogs and cats too. And some fish whom the family believe are actually immortal gods given their staunch refusal to die. Lyssa has been a voice actor since she found out she could get paid to make mouth noises – roughly 17 years now. In addition to voicing everything from presidential campaign cat videos, perfume that turns you into an elf and an exhibit in the National Museum of Comedy, she’s been heard globally training corporate staff, answering phones and explaining all sorts of things. In short, everything but an elevator voice and goddammit where are the elevator people? Why aren’t they calling me? Listen – First Floor. That was beautiful and you know it.

Lyssa is the co-founder of the Suffolk & Goode Players along with Dale Leopold. She has served as head writer, talent wrangler and grammar sheriff on both BS de Resistance and My Friend Lyssa, in addition to playing herself, Nancy Pelosi, Mary Magdalene and anyone or anything else that comes up. Her life really is this weird and has made possible a ton of standup and humor writing. Thanks fam. She can make potstickers from scratch. This year she was nominated for the OneVoice Award for best political vo – female and one for telephony too. That girl will say anything for money.

Dale Leopold is a bilingual (English/Spanish) voice actor, writer and lyricist who has voiced commercials, audiobooks, political ads, animation and corporate narration for clients all over the world. He spent most of his childhood in Latin America, for reasons he is not allowed to discuss.

He lives near Richmond, Virginia with his wife Nora. In addition to his voice work, he has also acted on-camera and on the stage (every Halloween in Richmond, he gets to recreate Orson Welles’ role in The War of the Worlds).As a co-founder (along with Lyssa Graham) of the Suffolk & Goode Players, Dale has served as Showrunner for both shows (My Friend Lyssa and BS de Résistance), Co-writer, Lyricist, Sound Designer, Audio Editor and (of course) actor. With BSdR, he got to play a number of American leaders (Nixon, Clinton, Obama, Trump and Putin), as well as serving as the show’s Announcer.

He is delighted to have found a “tribe” of amazingly talented actors, writers and musicians who were willing to play with him. Both shows have been honored by the Hear Now! Audio Theatre Festival. Along with his musical partner Chris Mezzolesta, he’s now written more songs than Tom Lehrer. And he’ll never get over the thrill of hearing that his song, “The Eagle and the Bear,” hit #1 on the Dr. Demento Countdown.

Originally from Long Island via adopted hometown Cleveland Ohio, and now residing in the Houston area, Chris Mezzolesta is a voice actor, musician, vocalist, and audio producer. His musical projects have included live and recorded jazz performances, live all-occasion band and theater pit orchestra work, and the comedy music of Power Salad, heard for years on the legendary “Dr. Demento” radio program and with many CD and vinyl releases.

Chris is an audio production nerd and spends much time analyzing variations in the sound of different issues of Beatles records, among other things. He is aware he has a problem. Chris voices projects such as eLearning, commercials and corporate audio for many diverse clients around the world from his purpose-built recording studio. In 2020 a Hallmark talking Christmas ornament of the Looney Tunes “Abominable Snowman with Daffy Duck” was released with Chris having been selected by Warner Bros. to voice match the legendary Mel Blanc as Hugo, the Abominable Snowman. He is proud of having been able to lend many different voices, as well as original music, to the projects of the Suffolk & Goode Players.

Karyn O’Bryant has performed live, on-camera, and behind the microphone for a wicked long time. She spent a lot of money to go to a fancy-pants acting conservatory so that she can stand in a teeny padded room and make mouth noises into a stick. Convincingly. She’s voiced animation, e-learning, corporate, telephony, documentary, commercials, audiobooks, ADR/looping, videos, radio, podcasts, and more. You can even BE Karyn in a video game called “Lake.” She also won some awards for convincingly being other people. Karyn likes to go outside and play, stay inside and make food, and ballroom dance. She has two cats and has done 12 Shakespeare plays. She’ll give you the family recipe for pork pie if you ask nicely.

When I landed in voiceover in 2003, I knew this is really where I belonged. It gave me a chance to tell stories, teach important histories, be different people and characters, and let me use the single greatest gift given to me by my father: my voice.

My work has extended to almost all areas of voiceover, including radio and television commercials, e-learning, telephony, video games, promo, documentary, museum, and corporate narration, explainers, and more.

My passions beyond VO include music, space science, human rights, and sports, particularly NBA basketball and Premier League Football.

Like most people, my life has had a bit of wonder to it. I like to use that wonder to infuse your message with my experience and make your words as heartfelt as possible. Let’s work together to continue the evolution of your message.
