Hal Lublin

Hal Lublin is an American actor, improv performer, and voice-over artist best known for his work on the Thrilling Adventure Hour and Welcome to Night Vale.

Biography Originally from Philadelphia, Lublin was a fan of animation and comic books as a child. He graduated from Syracuse University in 1999. In 2000, he moved to Los Angeles and subsequently developed asthma due to the climate.

Lublin has studied improvisational comedy with The Groundlings, The Second City, and iO West. At his Second City Graduation, he was invited to do voice work for the anime for Read or Die, leading to additional voice work.

Lublin co-creates UN-imations with Len Peralta, which are improvised pieces of art in which Lublin provides a voice and Peralta must create a drawing from scratch based upon that voice. It was announced in September 2015 that Lublin would be appearing in season six of The Venture Bros. He voiced the characters Wide Wale and Manolo.

Podcasts Lublin has been a WorkJuice player on the Thrilling Adventure Hour starting in 2005, when it started as a stage show at M Bar in Los Angeles, through the end of its formal run in 2015. His roles included the announcer for the segment Beyond Belief, Gummy to Craig Cackowski's Banjo in Moonshine Holler, Phillip Fathom, and numerous other recurring characters. Through the Thrilling Adventure Hour, Lublin met Jackson Publick, which led to his role on The Venture Bros. Lublin has also been a frequent guest in The David Feldman Show. Lublin and fellow WorkJuice Player Mark Gagliardi launched We Got This with Mark and Hal, a podcast in which the two provide definitive answers to pointless debates, in February 2015. In July 2015 the podcast joined the Maximum Fun podcast network. Lublin also hosts a weekly wrestling podcast Tights and Fights, which wraps up the week in wrestling, covering major events and storylines. In a 2017 article, The Comeback stated: "These are people who genuinely enjoy pro wrestling from a storytelling perspective, but who also want to dig into what's going on behind the scenes and off-screen as well."
