This recipe is not meant for everyone. You must have a flavour of authority and be very clear and knowledgeable about the obstacles that will surround the voice upon distribution. For example if this is a talking train, there are many patrons speaking while the train audio plays, so if you are shy and calm or flat with your energy, it’s very hard to be heard over all the obstacles. So take the time to consider where this is being distributed.
