I know voices change over time, usually with age.

But with Paul Turner, his delivery has totally changed in the last 30 years.

What was once a very serious and strong voice has evolved into an overly enthusiastic and over-the-top delivery no matter the subject.

 

It's very apparent across his station clients (primarily the old West Virginia Media stations under Nexstar) and his Learfield Sports clients like Alabama.

 

I know the adage for a voice client is to give the station what it wants (someone probably complained about his old-style of delivery) but the new style has seemed to stick. 

I guess  it doesn't work for all of the sales tie-ins that have invaded local TV...

Paul Turner has done the voice over for a famous British radio DJ, Chris Moyles since the mid 90s and he sounds exactly the same and he is a integral part of the DJ's show over all these years. Moving from the BBC and then Global Radio's RadioX, Pauls voice continues is a familiar voice heard for decades on British AM Radio.

He's also the VO guy for his hometown Philadelphia Eagles' Radio Network. Maybe our recent success has lightened him up lol
