LIFE, UNSCHEDULED

Narrator Soneela Nankani captures the tension felt by workaholic web designer Nicole Palmieri as she overschedules her way through a huge work project and maid-of-honor duties for her best friend, Parisa. Nankani's tone is plaintive as Nicole struggles to find a way to simultaneously please her demanding bosses and Parisa's equally demanding family. In soothing contrast is Nankani's deep, calm voice for Brandon Phelps, the nearly perfect man Nicole doesn't have time to date. And then there are the caricatured voices of Parisa's jeering siblings and overbearing mother, and the Eastern European dictator voice for Nicole's terrifying boss. Listeners will anticipate the train wreck that lies ahead but will thoroughly sympathize with Nicole's time management issues, thanks to Nankani's delivery.
