Radio DJ

He's the voice on the radio in the kids' world of Big Mouth, a DJ heard between songs and school-bus rides rather than a character anyone sits down with. He talks fast, cracks wise, and treats whatever's happening in town like just another bit for the airwaves.

Jason Mantzoukas has a gift for turning a throwaway voice part into a small explosion of chaos, and Big Mouth knows exactly how to spend him: a burst of unhinged, high-energy patter that punctuates a scene and vanishes before it overstays. It's a tiny role that lands because of who's reading it.
