Talking with Caboos15: Ellen McLain plus surprise guest

[trexhertz]

@skyrimrosedavid he voices the sniper

[bloodynoise666]

I don't know which is more beautiful: Her singing or her laughter

[KylieDeeTastic]

omg I love her.

[soggycloth]

This has probably been said before, but she is married to the voice actor for The Sniper

[hahamanization]

The Valve Family! :D

[Creepernator]

21:52 : what most people are wanting to find in this video

[Hana00flower]

Now I am so proud that my middle name is Ellen

[Tundranom]

*sigh* I miss the old youtube...

[InevitableResistance]

3 ppl wanted her job.

[InevitableResistance]

lol some say cave johnson's voice actor refused to do his part where she says "I DON'T WANT THIS" apparently because it seems to much like a rape. some say thats not true but i thought that was interesting

[21pivex]

oh my god... for some reason her voice in this reminds me of shirley phelps-roper of the westboro baptist church. ugh, now im disturbed

[BetterThanMeOfCourse]

She must get handed an abundance of cake at every appearance she makes.

[goblinsrevenge]

@skyrimrosedavid John Patrick Lowrie isn't Cave Johnson lol

[Swenglish]

According to Wikipedia, "the opera ain’t over until the fat lady sings" was said by Ralph Carpenter in 1976 (although "The carnival isn't over until the fat lady sings" may be an older proverb; citation is needed on that claim).

Excellent interview, by the way.

[jonnycashman100]

This video actually has some INTELLEGENT conversation in the comments for once

[Mcdovin1]

@jonnycashman100 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA now that's out of the way; intelligent. But I agree LOL XD

[lazybum51]

"im going to make this short"

looks at length of video....

[AeroliteGaming]

You should have asked John to go "JARATE!!"

[DHG1124]

her earring looks like a mini space core

[lifeofanidiot]

So THAT'S why that Opera doesn't make sense! XD

[yodwadre]

sounds too nice - meaning she's really exactly like GLADOS underneath

[foxon88]

This interview is incredibly informative and *inspirational*. She sounds like a hoot, and she clearly works very hard and loves her craft.

[GR33NTHUNDAH]

"My husbands going to the bank!"

*billions of people line up in every bank around where they live*

[SourNotHardcore]

Fantastic interview.

[conanedogawa3]

She says 'You know' a lot, haha. Stellar voice actress!

[Bluuberee]

This was a really great interview, but the interviewer sounded absolutely petrified of her!

[xEcl1pseSn1p3rx]

I'VE MEET HER! She's so sweet.

[ExtraEme]

@xEcl1pseSn1p3rx where and how?

[xEcl1pseSn1p3rx]

@ExtraEme It was at Southern Interactive Entertainment and Game Expo (SIEGE) hosted by the Georgia Game Developers Association (GGDA). I actually went as a school field trip in my senior AP Computer Science class. In one of the rooms in the Hotel my friend said "GLaDOS is in there" Me not knowing who that old lady and guy were promoting the book in the corner. Of course after I found that out I went asked then got a picture+signature of/with her and the voice of "The Sniper" from team fortress.

[wratched]

she has a lovely laugh

[Blach1234]

SHES SOO NICE!! :D

[GreyFenn]

She´s a doll.

[rottenmisfit]

turret opera

[Csp499]

I gotta ask; what exactly were they referring to when they mentioned "You're very handsome; is this what all British people look like"?

[goblinsrevenge]

@Csp499 My Skype icon is a picture of some apes from ape escape 3 holding filming equipment

So when he walked in that was the first thing he saw of me lol

[DuTchEr95]

Lol! Count how many times she says: "you know..." it's over 100!

[Kerkerseelenfresser]

Everyboby inVALVEd XD

[AlexMorellon]

damn spoiler alert !

[Skibobsmells]

God she is so adorable. :c /creep

[makebelieveperson]

aw i thought she's sexy babe

fantasy = broken :(

[About9000ninjas]

Is it just me, or does Ellen's earing look a little like the curiosity core?

[OctaviaRavia]

Holy crap. if Ellen Mclain was my teacher.

[GravoForce12958]

@OctaviaRavia I'd be happy i was in school. Luckily, i'm not in school yet.

[LittleIrishDancerGal]

@OctaviaRavia Ellen McLain IS my teacher. She's my singing coach.

[Jonah64100]

She's amazing =-D!

[Mikrogrimm]

Take their time ? ............. Hl3 ?

[GameMakerBMGf]

How can Ellen McLain sound so sweet and nice yet pull off something as terrible and dark as GLaDOS!?!?!?

[TehRealClawz]

I love How she says Wheatley. haha

[TheMinecraft55]

I started crying when hearing the turret song:,(

[Charzard03]

This lady is amazing ;u; so sweet and funny :3 and she's coming to the UK :D This makes me very happy >w< Ima try and make Kita Con in that case x3

[xsvmaster]

How can she play someone so evil? She's so nice.

[FKProds]

@xsvmaster GLaDOS isnt evil. She just wanted to test due to a problem with her circuitry. It's like a virus. Wheatley got it too when he was in her body, and he's nice. It's like having a mental illness. Plus, GLaDOS came from a nice person, Caroline. Learn some P2 knowledge :D

[ComedyGamerGalNutra]

She sounds very sweet. :)

[sparton1199]

ACCEPT ALL JOBS FROM BETHESDA GAME STUDIOS ELLEN

[ElectronAndHazmat]

Lets hope Valve doesn't screw up as badly as Pixar did with the abomination of Cars 2.

[gameslammer666]

Wow, I thought Ross Scott wasn't gonna be topped.

[thesovietunion123]

22:01

[SaintOwnerLP]

holy crap haha it must be so cool to be her husband. imagine her threatening you with GLaDOS quotes

[DaddyF4tS4c]

Dude, u r a good man for posting these and a lucky one at that. Thx for the uploads.

[breaksystembse]

She is a gem. :)

[ortizluis1231]

@chloehelton she is caroline

[zck20200]

She talks like Caroline in her normal voice.

[Stealth22gaming]

@zck20200 maybe because she is caroline

[zck20200]

@Stealth22gaming I mean she sounds like she doesn't go out of character.

[jackk237]

MISSION BEGINS IN TWENTY SECONDS

[0n3Vva]

ValVe is the videogames Pixar... Artists.

[DolphinPrincess89]

Am I the only one who noticed she mentioned that the person in the picture with Cave was indeed Caroline? (Valve may not have made it official, but I think she just did.) 35:09

[chloehelton]

She sounds just like Caroline!! O.O

[Ghostation11]

She doesnt sound like GLaDOS at all.

[TheWigoff]

you need to talk to robin walker

[kimbleyaoa1]

its not over tell the fat turret sing XD

[Rayzorbladez]

Ah this was great. Sometimes her laugh reminds me of Jack Nicholson's Joker though haha!

[shanez1313]

Do the voice actor for Gordon Freeman next.

[RealMcoy1000]

@shanez1313 He already did.

[QueenAwesomenes]

@shanez1313 voice actor?

[alexis327100]

@shanez1313 he already did that dumb ass

[ajle9550]

@shanez1313 You mean Ross Scott? He already interviewed him.

[jonnycashman100]

@shanez1313 LOL

[Quadraxis86]

Ellen Mclain, you need to go to a video game convention for VALVe fans!!! im sure tons of people with love you there!!!:) especially me!!:)))

[LethalAxis]

dude you deserve at least 10 times the number of subscribers you have

[ladyvader401]

Question: At about 22 minutes (Killing you and giving you good advice aren't mutually exclusive.), was that the original clip from the game? Or did she just produce that off-the-cuff? I couldn't decide if it was processed or if she's just that good. :-)

[goblinsrevenge]

@ladyvader401 she is just that good lol

[lpatriquin]

you are actually..VERY EPIC INTERVIEWER

[pianolover234]

how did you get her to let you interview her!

[XxMissNoNamexX]

She's like Caroline!

[yansspu]

you gotta intwerview weathley's voice actor

[Csp499]

I noticed that most of these reviews are ten to fifteen minutes long, whereas this is almost an hour.

She definitely has a lot to say...

[DeathScreamish]

She is adorable!

[88FingersEddward]

Best. Interview. Ever. Really fantastic, and Ellen McLain's as sweet as can be. The fact that she can voice a character as psychotic and maniacal as GLaDOS is just an indicator of how AWESOME of a voice actress she really is. :D Love her.

[YetiSandvichVideos]

Gotta love Ellen McLain, she really brings half-life 2 that extra little touch. As the overwatch voice.

[spacedog94]

Aw, heh. She's so sweet.

[Psychicqueen]

She's so adorable!!! Thanks for this. :D

[SADXhacker]

"Valve doesn't rush their artistic product"

VALVE TIME

[Avery7667]

She has so much to say! That's what I love about her! ;D

[Sockmonsterplz]

She is so precious ;u;

[Eels1989]

Can you imagine if the interview was over and you realised you forgot to record sound? My stomach sank a little when I thought about that.

[eakooffire]

I love how she ends some of her words, like when she says "decades" and such.

[tfrepl]

need a voice demo here

[caffeineinfusedpocky]

i love her! shes so sweet and very caroline like. its so insteresting how she plays someone like GLaDOS but thats how good her acting is C:

[Portal2Rulez]

Missing Fact Core Quote: "All female opera singers must be fat."

[Portal2Rulez]

I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!

[NativeROLLER1]

@iamironpenguin How does one delay a game that hasn't been announced yet?

[xpr1mnt]

I love this family, they are still love each other, I want to have such familiy

[xpr1mnt]

I love this woman! No matter how old is she

[SwordsandMushrooms]

I love how she sometimes puts waaay to much emphasis on her vowels.xD

Vaaaaaalve!

[ewmess]

this interview is awesome

[iamironpenguin]

25:02 Yep, they have delayed just about everygame they have ever made, DAMMIT WHERE IS EPISODE 3?!?!

[ShallowBubbles]

I want to meet this woman! ;~; She sounds so sweet!

[YearOfTheShadow]

Congragulations ellen, I have to gongragulate you considering GLaDOS won 7 official awards in 2007, and from other things she got best of the worst guiding voices, best character, best new character, most memorable villian, and so on and so on. Your character has truelly made history! Still got my fingers crossed for portal 3!

[xProEm]

FYI~!

People did u know she is the voice actor for the turrents too!

Its in the credits of portal 2

[gLOLdos]

I SWEAR THAT PROJECT SHE'S TALKING ABOUT AT THE END IS EPISODE 3

[RussianPenguin1]

dude, when i first heard of you, i knew you had potential to be an awesome interviewer. and now you're going big time! hats off to you, sir.

[goblinsrevenge]

@RussianPenguin1 Thank you for your kind support :)

[Carnage1235]

@goblinsrevenge

Good, now you should try and get Stephen Merchant next....

Yeah, in our dreams. But, we can always hope.

[Witcherq]

HOW DID YOu CONTACTED HER !?

[RagnaroekChaos]

"Oh I get it: It's a PUUUN"

:D

I love that woman.

[duhsbo]

8000 views? Why? This video is actually pretty important.

[chino3089]

What a charming woman, completely different from GLaDOS

[Lucky38Man]

@MYFARTSAREDEADLY I know that's him, but, you know, who is he?

where do you know him from? what does he do, is he some kind of special or something like that? is he a famous person? what is he?

[ChronotriggerJM]

Is his character from Warhawk? :P

[MB4493]

37:08 Ellen says she made up all the words to the song. Does this mean that we shouldn't look too seriously into these lyrics? Everyone has been over-analyzing them like Valve was trying to tell us something, but it seems like Ellen just made them up on the fly?

[opiningdick]

THIS is GLaDOS? She is really good!

[utube1484]

also caboos drink the water (so he dosent drink the water)

[utube1484]

all youtubrs who like get cake all yotubers who disliked the cake is a pie,cake flavor triple choclet cake pie flavor poison

[Lamich8]

how do you interview such famous people and get so little views i mean THE VIOCE OF GLADOS 

[Animefestify]

why cant she talk to mmeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­e

[nullins]

Always been an ACTOR? NOT ACTRESS?

[anima2221]

24:02 Ellen: I am so glad... me: os.

get it? GLaDOS? lol

[Pwnage195]

GLaDOS!!!

[stargazerbird]

So she wrote the lyrics to the turret song. Interesting

Lovely lady with a huge sense of humour.

[lempeafeawintil]

"Hello Caboose, how are you doing? Don't drink the water!"

[SoylentBacon]

Before now, I never considered the sad likelihood that many kids playing the Portal games don't get the GlaDOS pun.

[Pimpmastahanhduece]

the sniper and glados, yea that work. All valves voice actors are good, but i think they all people who know each other way back.

[JohnBigOz]

You are so f***ng lucky you have no idea how lucky you actually are :D

Great interview.

[wolfdevon]

NEXT DASBOSCHIIT

[CorporalShephard666]

wow, she sounds like such a nice and wonderful person... still I knoiw her voice from a singing murdering maniac for a robot.

[TheBlackmesastudios1]

type this in google Half-Life 2: Episode 3 Clues Revealed In Portal ARG Puzzle

click the top link and read the message further down the text to Cave.johnson to J.H

its talking about the borealis teleportation expierament i think thats the game ellens talking about

[airbendingavatar1]

Someone should take some of the audio from this and GLaDOS-ify it!

[nameguy101]

@airbendingavatar1 melodyne studio

select pitch, ctrl+a, double click

select pitch bend, ctrl+a, double click

select pitch formant, ctrl+a, raise probably 1/2 step

[pidgeonsandpiearetas]

She's actually one of the most awesome sounding people I've ever heard.

This interview was a complete delight to listen to!

[holyhandgrenade999]

lol @ the laughing.

[xGuTTerFACE]

She sounds like my grandmother.

My grandmother is GLaDOS.

[accentadrew]

@xGuTTerFACE She talks with the same intonation as my grandmother too :P

[DrTacoSurgeonAtLaw]

A shame that these videos haven't gotten more views. While Caboos himself isn't the best of interviewers, it's still wonderful to hear people like Ashens, John Patrick Lowrie, and Ellen McLain be themselves.

Ellen is such a charming woman and deserves all of the recognition she receives.

[hakojo]

Heaven to me is sitting on a couch with Ellen McLain and just listening to her talk forever. *_*

[TheLazysketcher]

I just want to hug her, shes so AWESOME!!! :D

[KiyokaMakibi]

Can't belive how nice she is! ;_;

I got my hopes up when she said Birmingham, only to then have they shot through the roof when she said Birmingham England. WOAAAAAAAAAH!!! She's coming here!?!??! I booked to go to Kitacon in less than 5 minutes! SO EXCITED!

[Lucky38Man]

Ummm, who's Caboos15?

[MYFARTSAREDEADLY]

@Lucky38Man The guy who's interviewing Ellen.

[stomcode]

22:02 LOL

[rafaleek100]

Some epic laugh Mrs. McLain have:D

[ObscuredInside]

I smell a "meet the announcer" ?

[profmalicious]

"Is this what all British people look like now?"

Laughed so hard.

[mrwest15]

Awwww, she's cute. Kind of like a loving mother.

[EstanBulLoFre]

She's one of those people that can talk for hours and hours and I can listen to every second of it.

[MQnoob]

When I first heard her voice, and her personality, I was shocked-

YOU'RE TELLING ME THAT THIS PERSON, charming, nice and sweet, VOICED THE MANIACAL, CRUEL AND COLD HEART-ED GLADOS!?

I would have never expected it .

[AutoPilot009]

@MQnoob its a thing called acting. have you heard of it?

[322kittycat]

@MQnoob well...GLaDOS is devilisiously sweet! :D

[TheBlackmesastudios1]

45:22 hl episode 3????

[cultofdagon]

@TheBlackmesastudios1 I certainly hope so. I expect that is what she is referring to, so it is a relief to hear that it will, at least, be released at some point.

[TheBlackmesastudios1]

@cultofdagon i heard there done with episodes and are making it a GAME and not a minisode

[cultofdagon]

@TheBlackmesastudios1 I believe that is correct, yes. Of course, they could make it a full length game and still call it Episode 3, not that it matters.

[ColossalM]

@TheBlackmesastudios1 Most likely DOTA2.

[TheBlackmesastudios1]

@ColossalM type in nope avi. thats my responce :l

[onemanalive1]

yup the perfect one to be on GLaDOS, now next for Gary Schwartz (The Heavy) :D:D:D

[Zoombus]

Her personality is the exact opposite of GLaDOS..."She is a gem."

[AuximenesIsAlive]

She is a lovely lady

[wakachamo]

How'd you manage to get hold of her? O:
