Bradley William Smith
Hi there. I'm Bradley. Bradley Smith. Bradley _William_ Smith. Yeah, I
know. I'm a 3-name person. Sorry. If you're not a kid, you probably have
no clue who I am! I'm the voice actor for the gaming panda bear of
YouTube, Combo Panda. The channel is named after the character and after
roughly 5 years, we've accrued over 2 million subscribers and 1.5
billion views. "Combo Panda" is a sister channel of "Ryan's World,"
which is one of the most massive children's brands right now with over 33
million subscribers and 53 billion views. Aside from Combo, I provide
voices for the Ryan's World characters Packrat, Moe the Monster,
Shelldon the Baby Dinosaur, and Robo Combo Panda. Sometimes, Combo Panda
games against Robo Combo on the "VTubers" channel (over 2.3 million
subscribers/1.8 billion views). You can also catch me in live-action as
myself over on "The Studio Space" YouTube channel (over 3 million
subscribers/1.8 billion views)
Under the Ryan's World brand, my silly voices can be heard in "Ryan's
Mystery Playdate" (Nick Jr.), "Ryan's World Specials" (Hulu), the video
games "Race with Ryan" and "Ryan's Rescue Squad" (Switch, PS4, Xbox One,
PC), the mobile app games "Tag with Ryan," "Super Spy Ryan: Rumble
Arena," and "Ryan's Dart Tag," and even a good chunk of toys including
the Combo Panda Build-A-Bear. We're starting to produce anime specials
now, too, such as "Super Spy Ryan" (Amazon) and "Ryan's Arctic
Adventures" (YouTube).
When I'm not working on content to make kiddos laugh, I'm thinking of
things to make adults laugh (hopefully). The dream is to be a
professional standup comic, so I take any opportunity I can to tell
jokes. Even at conventions! So, be sure to catch my "Unconvention
Comedy" set, which are a bunch of jokes for those who love going to
conventions.
