Marty Grabstein (Courage the Cowardly Dog)
This week on Toon’d In!, Jim Cummings welcomes the wildly talented and wonderfully eccentric Marty Grabstein! Best known as the unforgettable voice behind Courage the Cowardly Dog, Marty brings his signature blend of comedic chaos and heartfelt vulnerability to a conversation that’s as unpredictable as it is endearing. From his roots in live-action and sketch comedy to discovering the beautifully bizarre world of Courage, Marty shares how a neurotic pink dog with a scream for the ages became an enduring icon of late-night cartoons and childhood nostalgia. He and Jim get into the weeds of what it takes to make fear funny, how silence can speak louder than words in animation, and why sometimes the weirdest roles end up being the most rewarding. 🎙️ Want to know how one man turned pure panic into cartoon legend? Tune in and get Toon’d In! 📺Check out Marty's performance as Hunter S.
