A Day With Daym

If you haven't heard of Daymon Patterson, otherwise known as Daym Drops, then you are missing out on a significant piece of entertainment. We got the opportunity this month to work on voiceovers with him for his new show, "Baby Got Snack," on the Cooking Channel.

I'm talking about a big man with a big personality. In the few hours before his arrival at the studio, I learned about his history from managing retail at WalMart and Carmax to making videos reviewing fast food restaurants. The Internet was taken with his review for Five Guys Burgers and Fries. This was when a world of opportunity opened up for Daym. He has come a long way and is now working hard for the Cooking Channel with his enthusiastic, playful and exciting food reviews.

On the day of his session, the studio was buzzing with excitement. Soon enough, Daym and his co-host Chris Clarke, otherwise known as "C-Snacks," entered the building. When Daym enters a room, the atmosphere becomes electrified. He speaks with a booming fervor that puts a smile on your face and a laugh in your belly. There's no question about why Damn is as successful as he is, especially after seeing him work with his producer while Bill recorded their voiceovers. Daym experiments with phrasing and accentuation, all the while maintaining a flow that is unique to him.

What I really took away, though, was the lesson that anything is possible with hard work. Daym and Chris have both travelled down a long road that has brought them to extraordinary places. They are absolutely charming and inspirational.

I hope I've caught your attention, because they are working on a project that is definitely worth your attention and time. If you want to learn about food and laugh along the way, be sure to check out, "Baby Got Snack" on the Cooking Channel!
