Why is Captain Picard the new spokesvoice for Goodyear Tires?! |
|
Just heard him burbling on about some new fancy tires that can tread water or whatever...
Didn't Professor X and Jean-Luc Picard rake in enough dough, not to mention his lifelong career in theatre?!

5. Patrick Stewart voice overs |
|
Back about 1991, he was the voice of Cellular One, an early wireless provider in the Southeast. I've heard him on some others during that time period on AM news radio.
