No, that was Steve Blum. Sounds a lot like Victor, though.

Jon -thanks for posting this. I've listened to a quarter of the interview & will finish when i get home later, but this is a real treat for G1 fans. Great voice - can't wait to hear the rest. The organizers of Botcon gotta get this guy to one. We'd love to see him and hear him speak and I'm sure Berger, Cullen and all of those guys would love to finally meet him!!!!
