Joel coached 14 actors for The Perfect Couple on Netflix, including Irish, English and Indian actors in American accents, Scottish to English, and several local, Massachusetts accents. Hear some of their natural accents here.
Joel is featured as an expert on American accents on David Farrier's Flightless Bird podcast, produced by Dax Shepard's Armchair Expert. Co-host Monica Padman said, "I found this to be one of the best episodes."
Samantha Simmonds-Ronceros, reviewing Love Among the Ruins at the El Portal Theatre, said of Joel's dialect coaching, “Everyone is English…and so am I. So I was prepared for the worst, accent wise. I was happily wrong! Everyone was pretty perfect actually, including the stars of this wonderful show, Jobeth Williams and Peter Strauss. Stars in their own right and both absolutely riveting as these long-lost lovers."
