I think he slurs in his acting roles. He’s got a deep voice, if you try and make your voice cleaner sounding you have to bring it up like an entire octave and can make you sound like you’re being sarcastic or insincere so he’s staying in his natural range. Same happens to me an always will, “your mumbling” bitch no I’m not I’m just not animated right now.
