I contacted him through email asking a question, and he responded promptly and in the most courteous manner.

His last response:

My pleasure.

J.



 My response:

Thank you for your prompt, polite, and courteous response!
It made my day!
I enjoy Babar when it comes on the Qubo channel.
You stay safe too!



Later he responded:    

Hey Michael!

No bother at all. If we don’t ask questions we’ll never have any answers.
I’m afraid that is not me. I haven’t seen the spot either.
Guess it’s just another guy vainly trying to imitate my vocal delivery and making money by doing so!! Ha!
Wish I could have said "Yes!”. Maybe next time.
In the meantime please keep watching Babar.
All the best and stay safe out there,

John

    I apologize for bugging you, but I was wondering do you do a narration on an Ihop commercial. Every time I see it and hear the narrator I can't help but think it sounds like Basil from Babar, just older in voice.

    I have no other way to find out if it's you, but to ask directly.

    I do apologize for the tedious question.

    Also I tried to submit this question in your contact section on your website, but the Captcha portion wasn't functioning. I apologize for cluttering up your email with my query.

    Thank you for your time! Have a Wonderful day!

You have to read from the bottom up, but that was the whole of my corespondence with the man himself.

Awesome dude!

Just had to share such a pleasant experience with people. Have a wonderful day all!
