        Sure. The commercials you linked predate me by longer than I’ve been alive, and in any case I don’t pay much attention to people who are in commercials

          the dude was pretty ubiquitous in the 80’s / 90’s. Even did a slew of stuff for Micallef - you couldn’t avoid him. He was everywhere. everywhere.

      It’s the old timie radio advertising voice. Clear and precise. John Deeks has a similar way.

      This is Pete Smith speaking.
