So we're here with Miley Flanagan actress and voice of Narutto and from the Narutto animated TV series

Good afternoon in California

Good afternoon. How you guys doing?

We're doing quite well. It's very cold in Japan, but

we're handling it.

Is it? Is it really cold there right now?

It does get cold but not as cold as maybe the northeast of the United States.

It snowed once and the people in Japan panicked.

It was like it was mass panic when there was no it just feels much colder

because the houses over here have no insulation so that sounds like the

houses here in California oh no Yeah, it rains here and people panic. Well we always kind of

get off to the same start with every interview.

It's a logical place to start.

So what were your goals and your influences

that led you to start your career?

Wow, well, you know, I never thought I'd be an actor, to be honest.

I, when I went to college I studied Polysign Math and at Boston College and I joined an improv troop and then

after college I kept going with the improv group and and so that you know that just kind of spiral from there.

I kind of fell into acting.

I always wanted to be something else, not an actor.

But that being said, my influences were always you know like the funny people from you know

second city and um
