Hi FitBlitzers…

I miss my last two dogs too. They were very loyal and kind. Both tried talking to us. Today I found that the one I presently feed can reply me! The two syllables sound was quite close to what I told him! Made my day!
Love this! Yeah they can make some real cool sounds at times! 🤣
I’m impressed by the use of Text2Speech to create this audio script. I look forward to hearing your other creations. Thanks.
Hey great to meet you here! Yes I was totally shocked when I first heard the ‘Drill Sergent’ voice. I instantly thought it would be great to write ‘Bruce THE Boxer’ posts with this voice. 😀
I now have 50 posts to do which could take me some time, but I’ll get there. At least I get to use all of the photos I’d taken of him, and I still can’t believe he died 14 years ago…And he was so soft, loving and nothing like his persona, lol! 🤣 I hope you enjoy the future posts!
A clean, tough guy. Well, I’ve got to tell you, however you did it, this was impressive. I kind of figured you were more the soft-spoken kind of guy.
Hey Dayle! Yeah too softly spoken sometimes, I get accused of mumbling, lol.
But soon you’ll hear the real me, as Sarah has been making a 3 minute film for the MS Society. She had me talking about my mum and that there were no treatments etc, I’m also playing my acoustic guitar in it, but I really don’t like being on that side of the camera…I prefer to type, lol! She also had Lindsey who lives with MS and is a scientist etc, and Sarah is also in it to talk about what the MS Society helps support etc. It’s still being finalised but I’ll share it on here as soon as they let me share the final film! 😀
Oh I forgot to ask if you’d like the audio version for the rest of the posts, or should I stick to the written word? Or Both? 🤔
I think both, because some people are in too much of a hurry to read and would rather hear what you have to say–and you have a lot to say that’s of value. I’m looking forward to seeing your video. Like I said, you have a lot that’s worth saying. Don’t hesitate.
Thanks for the encouragement Dayle! Sarah has had the final cut through for the Legacy video, so it shouldn’t be long before I can share it everywhere! 😀
Steve, is this your voice? Whoever it is has the tone and verbiage of a real drill sergeant–almost scary!
Hey Dayle! Oh yeah it’s scary! Oh no it’s nothing like my voice, I’m really softly spoken, and that voice would eat me for breakfast, lol. I found it whilst searching through some ai voices on ElevenLabs website. It was called ‘Drill Sergent’ so I had to check it out!
As Sarah knew just how soft and loving Bruce was in real life, she’s not keen on this hard aggressive version…But I think it matches his new persona very well, and I certainly need kicking and pushing to get out and get active, lol! 🤣
I’m with you, as it’s so scary how real it sounds…I was shocked when I first heard it, and as Bruce THE Boxer he is the only Drill Sergent I’ve heard who doesn’t swear, which is also excellent! 😀
