Homeless man with golden radio voice (vid)

He's so smart for writing that on the cardboard. I knew he'd get a bunch of offers, just like Antoin Dodson is rich now, not that he deserved anything
laugh.gif

This dude does though

Like that dude from South Park says he got that Audible Chocolate

- You don't just hand out these kind of jobs...idk that's what comes to mind to me when people just say give this man so n so...it's more of a charity case type of thing.
Even to your point, He said he went to school and developed the voice, so outside of paying his dues to life in general, he did to the craft as well.  You need some real introspection right now for even making a statement like that.

You're way too old to believe in "fairness".

[h1]'Golden Radio Voice' Guy -- Grounded in Ohio By No ID[/h1]
1/5/2011 12:55 PM PST by TMZ Staff  

The 'Golden Radio Voice' guy -- who went from homeless to overnight Internet sensation -- is struggling to board a flight to NYC because he doesn't have ID ... according to his rep (yep, he's got one now).

ed Williams' peeps tell us Ted is currently at the courthouse in Columbus, OH trying to get a copy of his birth certificate. 

Ted is supposed to be in New York tomorrow for an interview on "Today" -- but according to the rep he's been homeless for more than four years so he doesn't have ID ... and can't board a flight.

It's the first bad news Williams has had in 24 hours. He's gotten a job offer, a home offer, and a free trip home to visit his mom -- all because of the YouTube clip that went viral.

Ted's rep says having to reestablish identity is a common problem for the homeless. Let's hope someone has a plan B to get Ted to NYC.

That's near my church and somewhat near Ohio State's campus!


I had no idea this thread was about Columbus, Ohio!

Uhh,no. If you drive then you don't need one, but if you're planning to fly, you need a valid ID.

I hope dude stays clean. I just have a feeling that eventually he might break down, and start with it again but who knows.

I'm with Venom.

He's got a good voice, but I don't like how society rewards people who have "interesting stories" when really they are stories of failure. It was HIS decision to get into alcohol and drugs and ruin his life. Now instead of someone who has worked his !#+ off getting promoted for his hard work, a viral video rewards a guy who doesn't deserve it, only because of the "feel good" story behind it.
