I got an Email from someone over at 91.8 The Fan letting me know that they will be doing a live interview with Tara Strong (The Voice actor for Twilight Sparkle).
It's primarily an interview about her Anime stuff, but FiM is included
Hey guys, I'm the resident Brony of 91.8 and thought i'd send this in, This has also been posted on Ponychan but if you guys would spread the word that would be awesome.
I'm hoping for a huge turnout in our IRC/tuned in for this one, our IRC is on the Rizon network at #918thefan.
Welp, now I know I'll want my exams to be over by 5 PM EST so's I can listen to this between 5 and 6. Tara Strong has always been awesome and is even more so as Twilight Sparkle.
Yo! I'm a DJ over at 91.8 The Fan, and while I won't be conducting the interview, my show is on directly after the show the interview takes place in, so anyone who sticks around can private message me on IRC with the phrase "Friendship is Magic" and I'll give you 5 Shiny Elk Points (which is basically a useless fake currency I and others on 91.8 The Fan trade for certain services.)
They can be used for things including but not limited to: song requests (during my show), chibi drawings, short poetry, and someone has even opened up a Pokemon shop of sorts.
Everypony! I've set up an event on FaceBook so everyone can share it and we can get moar people in the know! http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100001329609447&ref=ts#!/event.php?eid=108614575884461 TELL YO WIFE, YO KIDS, AND YO HUSBAND TOO CUZ WE INTERVIEWIN ERRBODY OUT HERE.
Yah I'm sorta raging right now. I can't figure out how to work the site. I signed up. Made an account, and everything. But I still can't find out how to get audio. I'll just have to listen to it by someone who records it... feels_bad_pony.jpg
if you're an impatient pony... http://boomp3.com/mp3/rbimal6rng4-awesome-interview I hope the guys from 918thefan don't mind... if there is any problem i'm going to delete this in few second...
@Anonymous Oh, hello Mr. Troll, I suppose I should correct you before people get the wrong idea.
I did this of my own time, I am an S-Mod on their forums and also a proud brony, they know nearly nothing about Ponies and generally I'm one of the only ones that talks about the show in our IRC daily.
The person that interviewed Tara, Kanashimi, has never seen Ponies, nor am I going to make her watch Ponies because she does not want to, I however did ask her to atleast bring up FiM during the interview otherwise my bronies would probably cut my head off, which is probably why she called us a meme, and if you were in the IRC at the time you'd have called everyone there drooling fanboys of twilight as well, 109 people chatting live gets pretty hectic.
I e-mailed ED, Derpy Hooves, posted on Ponychan and FiMchan and even made a FaceBook group for it in my own time because I enjoy the show and thought my bronies would like to hear the interview as well.
But I digress, I guess me having a Rainbow Dash userbar/avatar/signature on our forums doesn't tell anyone that I'm a Brony or anything.
It was okay, Amui. Thank you for sharing the interview with us. The ending was worth it. Music was not bad. Though, it was not quite what I expected. Should have been more ponies
@Anonymous I'd have loved to, unfortunately I'm not an employee of 91.8 The Fan and am part of the Moderator Staff, to be an employee I'd need to sign an NDA due to the nature of what they discuss behind the scenes (usually about series' that haven't been released yet most likely, or a series getting a 2nd/3rd/4th/etc season) and legally I need to be 18 to sign an NDA, currently I am 17 (But I will become an employee when I do turn 18)
I'd love to get a chance to talk with Tara though, that would have been epic, and I'm pushing to get them have Ashleigh Ball interviewed too. (I have a feeling that interview would somehow be 20% cooler than even Tara)
@Amui I am the anon you were referring to and I am sorry about my post. After re-reading it it came off alot more harsh than i originally intended.
Thank you for clarifying that you are just a brony on the irc and not a employ. That makes alot more sense I was just under a miss understanding because of that one post on the front page of the site. It mentioned that the person that made it didn't watch fim and assuming that spoke for everyone there I came to the conclusion this was just trying to get higher ratings. Im sorry if I offended and will try and not jump to conclusions in the future
the fact we got mentioned at all is pretty cool. It mite have even spread the friendship to a few non bronys that listened and again im sorry if I came off to strong. I really wasnt trying to be as mean as I was

OMG I will hopefully be home in time for that...it's going to be epic...

ReplyDeleteliving the dream!!! :D
ReplyDeleteOhMyGosh!OhMyGosh!OhMyGosh!OhMyGosh!OhMyGosh!OhMyGosh!OhMyGosh!OhMyGosh!OhMyGosh!
ReplyDeletecome over to our irc http://918thefan.com/forums/chat.php we all love pony's :)
ReplyDeleteHow about a comparison of Tara's work on Drawn Together versus FiM?
ReplyDeletetalk about polar opposite shows
When I saw that Presea Combatir and Twilight Sparkle had the same VA, I was speechless.
ReplyDeleteIt takes a lot to make me speechless.
Forget the anime; focus on FiM, lol.
ReplyDeleteWelp, now I know I'll want my exams to be over by 5 PM EST so's I can listen to this between 5 and 6. Tara Strong has always been awesome and is even more so as Twilight Sparkle.
ReplyDeleteShouldn't it be "actress", not "actor"?
ReplyDeleteAnyway, this is cool news! As much as I like the fanworks, "real" pony news like this is always the best.
Hope someone records it. I don't know how available I'll be. DX
ReplyDelete@flashfox466
ReplyDeleteIt should be recorded and posted onto the main page afterwards.
@relias Actor is the general term for Acting People。
ReplyDeleteBut yes, you are correct。
OMG yay, can't miss this, she also did Rikku in FFX ^_^
ReplyDeleteWow, Rikku too? Neat! Final Fantasy and MLP:FiM: Two great things that go great together.
ReplyDeleteYo! I'm a DJ over at 91.8 The Fan, and while I won't be conducting the interview, my show is on directly after the show the interview takes place in, so anyone who sticks around can private message me on IRC with the phrase "Friendship is Magic" and I'll give you 5 Shiny Elk Points (which is basically a useless fake currency I and others on 91.8 The Fan trade for certain services.)

Hey, can some pony record this and put it on YouTube or something?
ReplyDeleteI want to here too!
@MasterMask
ReplyDeleteA while after the interview takes place it will most likely be uploaded onto the main page for everybody who doesn't catch it live.
Make sure to have an update the day of or a day before.
ReplyDeleteEverypony! I've set up an event on FaceBook so everyone can share it and we can get moar people in the know!

TELL YO WIFE, YO KIDS, AND YO HUSBAND TOO CUZ WE INTERVIEWIN ERRBODY OUT HERE.
Technically, if they're gonna focus on her anime works, the it's 'seiyuu'.
ReplyDeletesomebody needs to record the broadcast or stream it via web or both.
ReplyDelete@Geradex it'll be recorded and put on the main page of the site after its done
ReplyDelete@Geradex
ReplyDeleteAdditionally you can just listen in by hitting the "Listen Now!" button on the main page.

Amui... I'm not sure you realize just how much more exposure your station will get from this. There are THOUSANDS of bronies.
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteThats exactly what I want, I want our IRC to be overflowing with friendship and tolerance and love.
The more Bronies, the better.
I love Tara Strong. I got to meet her at some convention called Anime Overdoes (I think) right after FFX-2 came out. (She's the voice of Rikku).
ReplyDeleteShe's pretty awesome. Looking forward to hearing the interview.
thats one nice looking pony :3
ReplyDeleteSOMEBODY RECORD THIS!
ReplyDeleteoh my!
ReplyDeleteSomeone has to please please please please record it!!!
ReplyDeleteI intend on being present in an hour but I have no idea how to capture audio, plus Im sure everypony at work right now will appreciate it!
Yah I'm sorta raging right now. I can't figure out how to work the site. I signed up. Made an account, and everything. But I still can't find out how to get audio. I'll just have to listen to it by someone who records it... feels_bad_pony.jpg
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteIsn't the speaker-icon next to the ridiculous anime-girl working for you?
Won't need to record it, 91.8 The Fan records all of their interviews and puts them up on the site.
ReplyDeleteHonestly I've checked back every hour and it's still just playing anime music ;p Is it really 2-3pm?
ReplyDelete@Sethisto 2pm PST, 5 EST
ReplyDeleteSOMEONE POST A RECORDING. I MISSED IT OH FCUK
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteIt hasn't even aired yet...
i hate my luck....
ReplyDeleteis there any recording of this?
OK, Mads, I figured out it was a bit of a java script error, and I fixed it. I feel awsome now
ReplyDeletethis is awesome!
ReplyDelete15 minutes until interview
ReplyDeleteArgh! She called us a meme!
ReplyDeleteThis is an internet community. Ponies is a straightedge lifestyle.
ReplyDeleteSomeone send her an email.
a meme?! A MEME?! WE ARE SPAR.... errr I MEAN PONYYYYYY!
ReplyDeleteA MEME!?
ReplyDeleteLoving this interview
ReplyDeletedid tara just do a celestia letter about lesbian twilight
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteMy reaction was similar.
Still this is filling my heart with voice acting passion.
Oh god I missed it.
ReplyDeleteIs this recorded? TELL ME ITS RECORDED!
Was that it?
ReplyDeleteIt is going on right now. It is 5 pm EST
ReplyDeleteNapoleon Dynamite animated.
ReplyDeleteDo.
Not.
Want.
@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteWhat? I must have zoned out...
@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteWell...
She was talking about the Gilda episode...
BUBBLES TWILIGHT
ReplyDeleteFucking Twilight Sparkle.
ReplyDeleteTwilight Bubbles
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteIt's recorded and it should be up on 98.1's site within the hour.
Ah arizona time had me thrown off again, what an annoying time zone i live in.
ReplyDeleteJust listened to it. I find it funny that she had no clue the show had such a large following.
ReplyDeleteThe interview will be available on the site and from their podcast within the next few days.
ReplyDeleteI think her first blurb sounded better than the second, even though she lead-in with Twilight the second.
Indeed everyone, the interview will be up on the main page within a day or so (for editing and such)
ReplyDeletekeep checking back! also the bump will be spliced to fit the Twilight Sparkle voice in instead of the Twilight Bubbles one.
@Sethisto
ReplyDeleteYou live in AZ? Hey me too
Alright, I've got mah main brony working doubletime on editing the interview and I'm told the fastest it will be up is within an hour if he rushes.
ReplyDelete@Amui
ReplyDeleteGood thinking!
if you're an impatient pony...

am i the only one that thinks that radio station did this to get more hits from us and doesn't really know/care about poni
ReplyDelete>calls us a meme
>calls us drooling fanboys of twilight
>the main page of the site mentions fim but then says that the poster dosent want to watch it
>outside of the Celestia pic that post has nothing to do with fim

@Amui
ReplyDeleteThen why didn't you do the interview? You clearly seem to be the better candidate.
It was okay, Amui. Thank you for sharing the interview with us. The ending was worth it. Music was not bad. Though, it was not quite what I expected. Should have been more ponies

@Amui
ReplyDeleteAlso I would like to add I was a Tadd buthurt about being called a meme because of that know your meme page.
@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteYeah, I apologize for that one guys, she hasn't watched any of FiM and I talked with her a bit afterwards about what happened.
She didn't mean anything mean by it, that's just what she thought of at the time.
@Amui
ReplyDeletets cool amui
the fact we got mentioned at all is pretty cool. It mite have even spread the friendship to a few non bronys that listened
and again im sorry if I came off to strong. I really wasnt trying to be as mean as I was
@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteIts cool brony, we all make mistakes sometimes.
So what's the end result?
ReplyDeleteEveryone on 91.8 The Fan should be enveloping themselves in FRIENDSHIP. Yes.
