Sad news from the world of voice actors.  According to a post on Facebook by fellow fan Candice Santora, Beast Wars Transformers voice actor Pauline Newstone has passed away (though her exact date of death is unknown at this time).  Santora is well known among the Vancouver voice actor community so I trust her word.

It has been a few years since actor Scott McNeil has attended a convention, so it made perfect sense for Botcon 2023 to give him his own panel where fans could ask him questions directly.  McNeil brought his patented brand of talent and humor together for a unique and fun panel.
