Patrick Warburton's Flight Prep: No Raw-Dogging for Him

0:00It's March 22nd. You're listening to Entertainment and celebrity news today, AI-powered entertainment coverage. Patrick Warburton, the 61-year-old voice of family guy, has a funny admission about air travel. He played David Putty on Seinfeld, the guy who stared blankly ahead on a long flight without any entertainment. But Warburton says he could never do that himself. Raw dogging a flight means going the whole trip was zero distractions, no movies, no music, nothing. The term blew up so much it became the American dialect society's word of the year for 2024. Warburton preps for flights like a pro. He charges his headphones, downloads playlists, and loads of audiobooks to stay relaxed. He only zones out when he's actually sleeping, because staring at the seat back would drive him nuts. Earlier this year, he posted a TikTok addressing the trend, saying he feels a little responsible for sparking it, thanks to his character. He warned folks to try it at their own risk since it takes a strong mind.

1:00Beyond the laughs, Warburton hosts an annual celebrity golf event called The Warburton. Now in its 16th year, it is raised over $40 million for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, with $6.4 million coming in. Last year alone. It's his way of channeling that big energy into real good.
