🎙️022 | Gideon Emery: The Hustle, the Voice, the Versatility

Описание: This week, Todd & Jay sit down with a powerhouse of performance: Gideon Emery — an actor, voice artist, singer, and full-blown chameleon when it comes to the craft.

Born in Windsor, England, raised in South Africa, and now working globally across stage, screen, and console, Gideon has built a dynamic career that spans theatre, television, film, animation, and AAA video games. You might know him as Deucalion in Teen Wolf, or from Daredevil, Shameless, Call of Duty, Final Fantasy, and countless other credits.

But beyond the resume, Gideon talks about the work — the hustle, the mindset, the flexibility, and the love of craft that keeps him sharp and grounded. From awkward beginnings to career pivots, this one is loaded with insight, stories, and a dash of that Gideon charm.

🎧 Whether you’re voicing dragons, chasing callbacks, or just trying to stay inspired — this episode is for you.
