Dave Bitran - A little Somethin' Somethin' About Me!
Ha, sounds how I would slate my voice over auditions. Never great at this but “hear”goes…🤪 Dave Bitran here. AKA "Btrain" because most people jacked up my last name so badly that Btrain was what came out of their mouths. Btrainsvoice is my handle because I did Radio and TV voice overs for over 20+ years so naturally, as a voice over actor, you kinda use your voice and so viola, Btrainsvoice was born.

The World’s Most Selfless Artists: Mothers
I’m Super Bulldog, and I’m here to tell you just how special and selfless mothers truly are. I may be a superhero, but here’s a little secret: most of my heroic qualities come from my mom. Yes, her love, patience, and sacrifices made me who I am today. Mothers are the greatest artists in the world, and their masterpieces are us: their children.

No Place Like Home
Just the three of us. We had celebrated Christmas Eve together the day before, my husband, my younger son, my older son and daughter-in-law, and their 3-month-old son. They lugged the car seat, diaper bag, and bottles inside, along with a few other odds and ends. We had set aside other essentials for them to take back with them, and I Aunt Bethany’d some of their Christmas presents by wrapping up everyday things we were giving them like shop towels and Advil. I overdid the baking and 14 tins of assorted cookies were filled. Jars and bowls had candy and chocolate-covered pretzels. Their stockings overflowed. I made arroz con picadillo for an early dinner and eggnog pie

Tales of Mary's Hearth and Heart.
In a cozy little apartment in Brooklyn NY lived Mary Hutcherson, she had occupied this same space for more than forty years. The house was a three story townhouse made of brick and fronted with a brownstone facade. In New York City, brownstones can be seen everywhere.

Frozen in Time
It was the winter of 1961, a season so bitterly cold that even the toughened streets of New York City seemed to shrink under the weight of the biting frost. I was just four years old, a small boy with a wide-eyed view of the world, still learning about its wonders and dangers. That day, my mother and I had been visiting relatives. We had spent the afternoon in the warmth of their modest apartment, with the aroma of sofrito and roasted pork filling the air. The laughter and chatter of family had made it a joyful escape from the frigid outdoors. But as the sun dipped behind the tenements, it was time to head home.

Never Forget to Hug Your Child Every Day: It Can Change Their World
This simple act creates a far deeper impact on a child’s world than you might think. Hugging is not just an expression of love; it is also a powerful tool for building emotional bonds, fostering trust, and contributing to a child’s overall development.

Sweet Memories
In the core of a clamoring city, in the midst of the transcending high rises and the perpetual murmur of metropolitan life, dwelled a gathering of four uncommon people: Aryan, Areba, Nisha, and Villon. Limited by a rugged obligation of kinship, they shared innumerable giggling filled minutes, genuine discussions, and remarkable undertakings.

The Eternal Promise. Content Warning.
The Eternal Promise The morning sun broke through the clouds, casting golden light across the quiet town of Willowridge. Its streets were lined with cobblestones, and its houses, quaint and aged, bore the charm of years gone by. At the edge of the town stood a large, ivy-covered house with a wrought-iron gate that seemed to whisper secrets of the past. This was the home where Eleanor had spent her childhood.
