Elliot Schiff is a voice actor, a husband, a father, and a good friend. Every time we chat, I come away encouraged, enlightened, and inspired. He has that amazing gift of being able to make whoever he's talking to feel like the most important person in the world, and he's got one of the brightest outlooks and kindest spirits of anyone I've ever met. Sit back, relax, and enjoy another round in the Ramble Room!
