The drabble for today, “Happy Talk,” was inspired by Jane’s career, especially her contribution of ‘additional voices for Tarzan, Lord of the Jungle.
Robert Ridgely, who voiced Tarzan, sat next to Jane Webb. “We start recording the next episode after lunch. I’m only voicing Tarzan. How many characters are you voicing today.”
“I’m voice six people. At one point, I even have an argument with myself.”
Robert laughed, “Talking to yourself again, are you? And you even answer! Might want to seek professional help.”
“I talked to a psychiatrist. She said not to worry about it.”
“Really, I should think that it’s a serious problem.”
“No, the doctor said that talking to myself isn’t a problem when I get paid to do it.”
