Lessee, I have actually been wondering this for a while. . .who do you find to be some of the most difficult people to impersonate? Are there any whom you haven’t been able to impersonate? That said, if I were to have my choice of seeing you impersonate anyone I’d definitely say Carl Sagan. I'm a dweeb--he's one of my biggest heroes. Way too outdated to do anymore, of course. I'd also ask if you could throw in the look on Terrell Owen's face after he misses a pass. Not a voice, but priceless, that. So yeah, any really tough impersonations? One more, way off topic. I read in an interview that you have a brother. Is it safe to assume that you are the younger one? Enough from me. Thanks.

Hey Carlos! Love you work, and Reno is easily one of my favorite shows on TV. My question is, how did you get into voiceover work? I have always been able to throw my voice real well and do voices from a chipmunk (alvin-simon-theadore-ish) to the Monster Truck rallies (SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY!!!) and most recently, and to be blunt about it, I wanna see if I can make some money doing it. So what path did you take...agents, casting calls, whatever. I am not in LA, but San Francisco, and any advice you can give to a wannabe voiceover guy would be much appreciated! Thanks again -Nick

The hardest impersonation is doing myself! I got into voice over work via stand up comedy in San Francisco...Carlos

Hey Carlos! Well my question is do you speak spanish fluently and how long have you been skydiving?

 

I don't speak fluently yet-I have been skydiving for over 15 years

Hi Carlos, I am a huge fan of all your work. Reno 911 is my favorite show. I never get sick of it. I remember when we used to work together at Alhambra Athletic Club. You were always so nice and super fun to work with. I think the last time I saw you was when you were living in San Francisco and commuting to Los Angeles to work. We went to dinner with my sister, Gigi. I teach 5th grade now in Sac. at Gold River Discovery Center. My students are all fans of your animated character voices. I missed your show at Sac State and wanted to say hi. I would love to see you, take you to dinner, whatever, if you ever have time when you're in town. I have a teacher website if you want to see if you remember me. msalazar@sanjuan.edu I know you're busy, but wanted you to know how happy I am for you, and how thrilled I am when I see your name on all your great projects. Love ~ Mimi

Carlos, you truly are very funny, which I'm sure you've heard a million times, no? But here's one you may not hear so much, at least not in the forum: Are you single? My sister thinks you are smokin' hot, & quite frankly, I do too! :) -Jonathan in Sacramento

I have a question.. Did you talk to Thomas Lennon, Robert Ben Garant or Kerri Kenney-Silver about why you and your two colleagues weren't returning in season 6? There is little to no info on this tragedy and I would love to hear more about it..

I wouldlike to know why they let you go as well Carlos. No info on Wendi, Mary, or yourself can be found. I've heard rumors about it not being pretty and was done through email.I hope t wasnt something personal between you guys. But what really happened?
