Don't lie everyone, we all squealed with joy when Bob began to sing the clean up song. It's so nostalgic to hear the original voice again after 20 years.
@@haleypierce6635 I WISH CARROL SPINNEY IS NOT A TOO LITTLE KID WITH NO BIG EARS BUT A LITTLE KID WITH LITTLE EARS DO'NT LISTEN TO THESE KIDS THEY ARE JUST BEING JEALOUS LEARNING MORE ABOUT STOP BULLYING SPEAK UP
This was a great episode. Recently I had started remembering the song "Everyone Is Special" and nearly crying since I haven't always felt great about not being "normal" due to being on the autism spectrum. I watched Barney from the time I was a toddler until I was about 6 years old then my siblings watched as well. Thank you Bob West for appearing on Purple Tales Podcast and sharing your story about your time as Barney.
As late 90s Barney fan and a person on Autism Spectrum Disorder, I’m very blessed to say that you and the other Barney people made my childhood awesome.
And Bob West, the original voice of Barney the Dinosaur are also appeared in some Universal Parks including A Day at the Park with Barney at Universal Studios Florida. Sadly, they replaced with DreamWorks Destination now but some of the props from Barney's Theatre stage are still standing.
Barney’s voice is like a combination of Yogi Bear & Tigger, LOL!!! His voice has both the jolliness & silliness of Yogi Bear and the excitement & hyperactivity of Tigger! 🤣🤣🤣 Bob West does such an amazing job as him!!!
That was unbelievable! Bob has still got it even in 2019 and it was great to hear his Barney voice again! You should try to get fans of Barney on the show! That would be one special honor especially if you had me on there! I’d have many Barney stories of my own to tell you guys! Great work Carey and Nancy! You guys really tore it up like Terry Labonte with this Episode! Can’t wait for many more to come! I love you, you love me! 💜💚
Thanks again guys, for getting Bob West on your show. He's the Barney that we all grew up with. And it would be a Super-Dee-Duper treat, if he actually returned to voice Barney The Dinosaur again for future content! For my next request, can y'all get Duncan Brannan, the second voice of Barney? I'd also like to hear Duncan do his Barney voice again on your show as well. And make sure Duncan also does his Barney laugh as well.
@@omenakev1077 There Ain’t no other Voice like Bob West His vocals are Blessed, He’s what put a smile on peoples faces & Shows and teaches us How Great life is To be Kid at Heart And when he sings the signature song Love Never Felt So Good
I too have asthma and I use a breathing treatment when I really need it. As I've gotten to the age of 13, I haven't had to use it as much. But when I was younger, I needed it a lot. And when I used it, I watched Barney and it helped along with the treatment. - Malachi
I LOVE YOU YOU LOVE ME WERE A HAPPY FAMILY WITH A GREAT HUG AND A KISS FROM ME TO YOU WON,T YOU SAY YOU LOVE ME TOO IM AM CRYING BECAUSE I A. LOVE BOB WEST THE VOICE OF B. T. P. D. SINCE I WAS 1 YEARS OLD BUT I LOVE IT SO MUCH
Been a Barney Believer for the past 15 years and am more than happy to say that I grew up with both of these men. As a teenager with special needs, nothing is greater than knowing that this is the one thing that has stuck with me throughout the 3 surgeries before my 6th birthday :)
I legit lost it when I heard the clean up song, Barney just had that effect on us as children and still to this day, some of us are adults and we became little children again as soon as we heard the voice. We’ll never be too old for Barney. I love you and thanks for making me to become the man I am today. You raised me as a baby when my mom had to spend 3 years out of the country for my older brothers living over there at the time to bring them to the states. I was staying with my grandparents and occasionally with my dad. Your episodes, video cassettes, toys, books were all over my grandparents house and my dad’s house too. your live concerts brought me so much happiness! You were literally my world. I Love You & I appreciate you ❤️💖❤️💖
My favourite episode so far, Bob is such a TREAT! Hearing that Barney voice after so long was so nostalgic (He's still got it!) and it was so cool to hear some of Bob's stories! Had a huge smile on my face the entire time!
BARNEY! It's so wonderful to see you again Bob West, the original voice of Barney. I love you so much too, you're the best! I'm so happy to hear your Barney voice before too long. If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands. If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands. If you're happy and you know it, then your face will surely tell it. If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands.
Bob IS Barney.....Fight me?!?!?!? Barney played a HUDGE role in my childhood. I had EVERYTHING Barney from movies, stuffed dolls, cake toppers (small figurines), bed sheets, dishes, silverware, cups, bath and body soaps, Barney themed birthday party, with Barney party games from the show, I even had someone as Barney come to my party (I invited him to dinner and I was sad that he declined), Barney school supplies, Barney books, and I had Barney clothes. Needless to say I was obsessed and hearing him say the lines from "Clean Up, Clean Up" my childhood died and came back squealing at the top of her lungs BARNEY!!!! I'm keeping the tradition alive with my own children and step child. Love you Bob thankful for my childhood 💜💚💜💚💜
Dear Barney thank you so much for helping me though a lot when I was little I was born super early, have a lot of Heath problems and am Speical needs and disabled. I watched Barney everyday, he was my first friend he meat a lot to me and now seeing the podcasts. I still have my Barney Blankie I've had it sense I was a baby in the NICU,I've taken it in with me to all my sugerys,every hospital stay, held it ans hunged it as I'm getting Ivs and shots ,broght in to all my Doctor apptiments, and sleep with blankie every night. Thanks so much Barney you have brought so much joy to me and my sister who's also Speical needs.
My childhood ❤😔....I watched barney and I dont care who knows it 😊. When your growing up, kids wanna make fun of you if your watching barney ha, so you try to act cool and tell everyone that your not. As a kid tho that's normal to feel that way but as an adult you learn to appreciate these moments you had as a child. Right? 🙂 Times were different in the 80s and 90s..barney are classics now and forever will be the greatest years to have grown up in. It's the truth, as a kids your a nerd if you watched barney but as an adult it's a moment in your childhood you are lucky to have been raised in. We learn to cherish our past alot more, today nothing is the same but that's ok because we have our memories. We got to witness everything and enjoy it so for that I'm grateful.
This is my favorite one. I love Bob West I enjoy hearing him do Barney's voice it fills my heart and makes me smile and blush again. He did Barney's voice from 1988-2000. I'm glad I'm about to meet him for real in my town Miami Florida at Florida Supercon in July with Josh Martin. I can't wait. Then I'm going to Tampa Florida to see him there with Caroll Spinney (Big Bird) who's going to be there too.
Finding this channel melted my heart and has brought so much joy and nostalgia. Seeing Min, Derek, and now Bob West so far is such a treat. I had nearly every VHS of Barney and Friends up until 2000 and still have 40 percent of them stashed away. Barney has been embedded in my soul and as a 30 yr old man I will forever be grateful for the escape, knowledge, and fun Barney has giving me as kid. ❤️
OMG! It feels so great to hear from Bob West again! This is the first time I've heard what his real voice sounds like. His Barney voice was the best and most nostalgic and the one I grew up on from The Backyard Gang to Season 6! I hated it when he left and Dean took over for the park years!
He Was Terrible An Don't You Know That Barney's Round And Round We Go, Barney's Beach Party And Barney Let's Go To The Zoo He Redubbed. In The Best Of Barney I Saw The Beach Clip An He Redubbed. Every Barney Videos That Had Tim/Duncan Voice's Were Redubbed Like The Be My Valentine Love Barney He Must Have Redubbed. He Was The Worst Barney Ever
When I heard that voice, the little kid in me briefly came back into me as I instinctly excitingly said "Barney" like I used to do whenever I saw even a glimpse of anything that had Barney.
This is my all time favorite episode of The Purple Tales Podcast! Bob looks like my technology teacher in High School only friendly. I love this episode because I really like hearing Bob's story of how he got to do the voice of Barney. Also I didn't know that he did puppets. That's so cool!!!
It was amazing to see Bob West again, thanks for getting him Casey and Nancy, nice to see he hasn't lost his touch in Barney's voice. I've been wanting to ask, you've have Patty for Bj, Bob for Barney, do you ever plan to get Julie Johnson the voice of Baby Bop?
Favorite episode yet! I could hear Barney in his regular voice as well. Wow. Got chills with the singing! No offense to Dean, he’s perfectly fine as Barney, but when I was watching it in the early 90s, It was Bob. I wanted to hear more songs :D Maybe if he comes on with Patty and Julie they could do a mini podcast concert haha. 💜
My biggest request is that we finally get new Barney content. New seasons of Barney & Friends, more Barney Home Videos that have new content throughout, new albums, new live concert tours, etc. I want Barney The Dinosaur to finally come out of hiatus. I miss this series to pieces.
@@SuperSonicWarrior93 yeah that would be nice, but they don't have any control over the Barney franchise and it's up to 9 Story and/or Mattel to bring Barney back. I hope it happens though
Art Master They're the ones in charge of Barney now? Ok then. And I hope it happens too. And if they can, maybe they can also put all of the past 13 seasons on DVD, according to season.
Probably Be My Valentine Love Barney Was Redubbed By Dean And Barney Let's Go To The Zoo Was Redubbed By Dean An Also As Barney's Beach Party. An I Had Those Tapes.
This is insane. I'm a voice actor too. Two of my biggest character inspirations were Barney and Chuck E. Cheese characters. I've perfected my Check E. Cheese, Jasper, Pasquale and yes, Barney, including a wide range of others because I can. Thank you for being this Millennial's inspiration.
I’m so excited to meet Bob West in a couple of weeks at the Raleigh Supercon aka GalaxyCon! Thank you so much for sending us the video of where Bob got to be on the show! I still love his Barney voice after all these years!
At Long Last you've got Bob!!!! I been looking for a interview of him FOREVER!!!!!!!! At last I get to hear the man speak. He has made my childhood, I LOVE BARNEY AND FRIENDS!!!!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!! 😍😍😍😍
By the way, folks, if you're in the Miami Beach area from July 4th through the 7th, I'll be at Supercon Florida! I'll be signing autographs and taking photos with fans. 4-day passes are sold out, but some 3-day and single-day passes are still available. Come say hi! www.floridasupercon.com/
At 5:52, Can someone give me a moment, please? BECAUSE I THINK MY CHILDHOOD LEVELS HAVE GONE ALL THE WAY UP TO 11!!!!! Oh my gosh...! OH MY GOSH!!!!! YES! YES!!! YES!!!!! I FEEL LIKE A YOUNG LAD AGAIN, AFTER HEARING THE CLEAN UP SONG! IT FEELS AS IF MY CHILDHOOD HAS RETURNED TO MY 5 YEAR OLD SELF! BOB WEST (AKA, The original voice) HAS STILL GOT IT! AND WE’LL ALWAYS LOVE YOU BARNEY! FOREVER! 💜💚💜💚💜💚💜💚💜💚💜💚💜💚💜💚💜💚
Bob West I think, I had the Barney in concert video. Cause, I remember certain parts of it!! I liked when you, as Barney sang the “Hebrew” alphabet!! How long did it take to remember it all, before doing the video?
I remember when i was in preschool back in 2002 my teacher would always sing the clean up song and we would all pitch in when we heard the song i use to sing the entire song every single day like an idiot 😂😂Barney was my favorite show as child i use to watch it every single day as a kid i had several vhs tapes from the 90s i always found the show to be so fun i remember my mom or my dad would let me watch Barney i remember my grandma having the original vhs tapes of Barney at her house when i came to visit i also had a Barney doll that loved so dearly i would take him with me to preschool and everywhere i went thank you for bringing back so many childhood memories for me i was such a Barney fan from way back in the day Barney always brought me so much comfort as a child he always had that gentle voice that always made children feel happy and comforted😊💜💚
I’ve been listening to this podcast on end for a couple days. I love it amazing people. Amazing stories! When I was little when I was a year old I broke my leg. So I watched ALOT of Barney until I was healed and even afterwards I watched it everyday as a kid. And now I watch it everyday with my kids on Hulu!!! Thank you so much for doing this! We love you!
On 20:45-20:46 tell bob west that I grew up watching Barney and I I had to basically watch it on 📀 and on the big 📺 on 📼 and to me this is 👏 and i’m 😊 and excited about it.
Our family has been fan barney addicts from the beginning 1988. I took it over I have alot of things from Jess Nelson collection the puppeteer for Barney. Speaking of Kids for Character. Whenever were all sad well start randomly singing it. Im 30 now and im the youngest out of all of us, one day my oldest sister 38. Shes like your having a bad day listen to Kids for Character theme! It has taken 15 years for me to obtain my collection and im still not done. One thing on my bucket list is to meet Bob West!!!! One day my mom and I went to the Unique thrift store when i was about 10-11 and they had A day at the beach, and i asked my mom why is this Barney dark purple because i was a Barney and friends kid, AFTER THAT I WAS HOOKED!!!!
I'm so grateful that I grew up watching Barney with the original voice!! Thank you Bob West for bringing Barney to life! I had no idea Bob visited the Sesame Street set and sat on Big Bird's nest! That's so cool! I love Sesame Street also!
I contacted Dwin Towell, who was the technical supervisor for the first three BYG videos and directed Waiting for Santa and Campfire Sing-Along. I gave him the contact information for Purple Tales and Carey Stinson, so hopefully he'll be on the podcast for an interview sometime!
Why didn’t they mention anything about how the “Day in the Park” show is still surviving at Universal Orlando long after the Barney series ended, even though there are not a lot of kids who go crazy over Barney to this day?
@@SuperSonicWarrior93 If it does, that is. It would take a lot of planning and preparation, as everything does. It always applies whether Bob West would return as the voice of Barney or not, which I hope he does if they make a reboot series.
Avi Greene Same here When Barney comes back, I want the series to go back to its classic routes. Bring back the old school formula of the series that fans love so much, and introduce it to new fans.
Huh a podcast video series of barney cool. You should have shown Bob's face when he was doing barney's voice. I'd ask him to do the first ever barney voice from the late 80s. They did at the end. Yay.
Fun fact: Bob West was not just supposed to just be the voice of Barney but in the costume too but by the time a costume was made, it was too small for him.
Carey continued the podcast on a different channel. It is now called Purple Roads. He still has Barney cast and crew on but he's also widened it to all childrens entertainment.
