Minds Unite: The VoiceMaster with Justin Piñon "The Mentalist"
"Everything starts with the mind: think it, say it, write it, and do it."
This powerful truth perfectly frames an inspiring conversation between two masters of the mind: Justin Piñon, the Mental Assassin, and Pocholo "The VoiceMaster" Gonzales, the multi-awarded voice artist, youth advocate, and motivational speaker.
In a special episode of Mind Over Matter, Justin Piñon shares the stage with Pocholo, diving deep into the mind and heart of the man who gave life to thousands of voices and inspired millions of dreams.
From Factory Dreams to the VoiceMaster
Growing up with humble beginnings, Pocholo dreamed of becoming a factory worker—simply because that’s what he saw around him. But fate had grander plans.
“Sometimes, dreams don’t come true because something even better is waiting for you," Pocholo reflects.
From his playful childhood imitations came a mastery of voice acting, eventually becoming the "man behind a thousand voices," lending life to beloved characters from anime shows like Cyborg Kuro-chan and Bubu Cha Cha, and even voicing commercials like the unforgettable Bibo Hotdog.
The Voice: The Most Powerful Instrument
Pocholo emphasized an important truth:
"Our voice is a force. It can start wars, heal wounds, and change the world."
Voice acting, according to him, is not just a profession—it’s an art form and a life tool. It's an extension of who we are, a manifestation of our spirit.
Justin and Pocholo laughed and bonded over impersonations and reflections on how voice shapes our interactions and perceptions. They pointed out how much we take voice for granted when, in truth, it defines human connection at its core.
Youth Advocacy: Investing in the Future
When asked why he passionately supports the youth, Pocholo had a simple but profound answer:
"Because youth still have time to change."
He believes the real world doesn't start after graduation—it begins the moment you realize your time is precious. His advocacy focuses on helping young people realize their potential early, steering them towards lives of purpose, passion, and service.
Through his Creative Voices Productions and The Philippine Center for Voice Acting, he has trained thousands of young dreamers, teaching them not just how to use their voices, but how to find them.
The Secret to Voice Acting (and Success)
For those who dream of following in his footsteps, Pocholo shared his simple formula:
Interest: Genuine curiosity and love for the craft.
- Passion over Profit: Focus on the art, not the money.
- TEAM Investment: Time, Effort, Ability, and Money.
- Continuous Practice: Every day is an opportunity to improve.
"Voice acting is not just about talent—it's about commitment, discipline, and the willingness to observe life closely."
He also invites aspiring talents to enroll in his workshops like VoiceWorx: Basic Voice Acting and Dubbing Workshop or start by reading his book, Gusto Kong Maging Voice Talent.
"You are never too busy for what matters. It’s all about priorities."
In a world filled with noise, finding your true voice—and using it to lift others—is perhaps the greatest achievement.
And as Pocholo and Justin proved in their powerful dialogue, when minds unite, voices move mountains.
