Introducing Sound Detectives from LeVar Burton

Published 15 Nov 2023 · Transcript excerpt

[…] In this world, sounds have been stolen by the nefarious sound swindlers. Detective Hunch has teamed up with Audie, a three foot five inch human ear, to listen closely and figure out what all of these sounds are. All with a little help from yours truly. Let's listen as Hunch and Audie first try this whole partnership thing on for size. This is a complicated case. LeVar gave us some of these missing sounds, but as far as we know, the sound swindler is still on the loose. You find the swindler, you solve the case. But who would be so evil that they would want to steal the crashing sound of the waves, silence the gentle coo of the mourning dove, and destroy the crackle of the fire? […]
