Episode 046: A La Carte With Vincent Martella

There’s 104 days of summer vacation — give or take — and Christy got to spend one of them with “Phineas and Ferb” star Vincent Martella. She's been a fan of his voice work as Phineas Flynn on the animated Disney series for years, thanks to her son introducing her to it, so she was thrilled when he agreed to be her guest on Breakfast All Day A La Carte. Vince and Christy talk about how he got his start as an actor growing up in Florida, his career-making roles on “Everybody Hates Chris” and “Phineas and Ferb” (which he did simultaneously for a couple years), how he found Phineas’ voice and his inspired routine to get psyched up before stepping into the recording booth. (They realized as he was leaving that she forgot to ask him about the “P&F” movie — it’s been in the works for a while and is due out next year.) They also discuss making the transition from child actor to adult actor, his life in New York and why there are so many wild Florida Man stories. Christy feels so lucky that he took the time to visit while he was in town for a couple weeks — he’s her first interview guest in her new home! — and he couldn’t have been nicer to her son, who is indeed on summer vacation. So sit back with a cool drink and enjoy.
