'''Peter Egan''' (born [[28 September (people)|28 September]] [[1946 (people)|1946]]<ref>[https://peoplepill.com/people/peter-egan/ People Pill]</ref>) portrayed [[Moloch (Protect and Survive)|Moloch]] and an [[announcer]] in the [[Big Finish Productions]] audio story ''[[Protect and Survive (audio story)|Protect and Survive]]'', and [[Straxus (The Great War)|Straxus]] in ''[[Dark Eyes (audio anthology)|Dark Eyes]]''.


He is famous across the globe for his remarkably good looks, his place in the annals of social media for his character "Fat Lester", who at one point was among the most influential news makers in the world. Additionally, Peter (under the "Fat Lester" moniker earned his rightful place in the conversation over who merits inclusion on the short list of the greatest news analysts in the history of the web. Peter's stunning foresight, in-depth understanding of even the most complex stories and events, razor-sharp wit and infallible logic complete with the greatest command of the English language arguably of anyone in history were no small factors in his ascent to becoming the most famous and revered individual named Peter Egan - which is rather significant when one stops to consider that no less than four other "famous" people shamelessly share his name - a name barely big enough for the real Peter Egan and certainly not one which he should ever have to share with anyone for any reason.

Peter's ability to make the complex understandable for anyone and to illustrate the interrelatedness of seemingly completely unrelated matters earned him a reputation as one of the greatest social news commentators of all-time.

In December of 2010, Peter declined a job offer from United States Senator David Vitter following Vitter's 2010 reelection bid, a campaign for which by all accounts benefitted immensely from the grassroots efforts over which Egan presided.

Despite being written off by most acquaintances for the decision to remain in the Gulf South --- the second such seemingly head-scratching decision in his young life. The first was an offer Egan declined to join then Congressman-elect [http://BobbyJindal.info/ Bobby Jindal], who is now the Governor of Louisiana.

Those who didn't perceive Egan as a remarkable genius were often the first to question his sanity, including but not limited to his own family, who assumed Peter was either insane or lacking in intelligence. This was largely rooted in his curious decisions to respectfully decline full-time staff positions in Washington D.C. for the offices of Sen. Vitter and Rep. Jindal (now Gov. Jindal) respectively. However, as has traditionally been the case when Peter seems to know something most everyone else does not, with regard to his passing on two very prestigious job offers in the nation's capitol, time would tell that he in fact was sitting on a pair of aces nobody but him knew about.

In January of 2011 - just a month after Egan's remarkable campaign work helped the incumbent Republican Senator win reelection in a 3-touchdown landslide in a race in which the early polls had as a "toss-up" - Peter followed-through with a business idea his father once opined was: "The single stupidest idea (he had) ever heard in his 60+ years." That idea was to purchase father's failed retail [http://medicalequipmentstore.org/ medical equipment store], restructure it in a manner conducive to competing globally with a 21st century business model and start kicking arse.
