What the heck is this?

A new feature here at TV Squad, where we show you a picture of something and you have to guess what the heck it is.
OK, so obviously this is a little booth where voice work is done. But this one is for one very specific show where the voice is rather important. Can you guess which show? It's a current show, and the only clue I'll give is...when you do voiceover work, you realize that it's not as glamorous as it sounds. Answer tonight.
CNBC goes down the toilet - VIDEO

As if a lot of TV viewers didn't already have enough ammunition against CNBC, they accidentally provided more yesterday afternoon.During coverage of a live interview with Larry Summers, the financial network has to cut away because of video and audio problems. Just as they went back to the studio and anchor Bill Griffeth, a notable toilet flush could be heard. It wasn't just something that TV viewers heard, Griffeth stopped in mid-sentence and looked off-camera to figure out just what the heck was going on. Looks like someone who works there and had a mic on forgot to shut it off when they went to the restroom. It's been a weird year or so for CNBC. First the arguments and the odd interviews, now this.
Note to all anchors: don't go to the can with a live mic - VIDEO

This has to be one of the funniest, though embarrassing, live news bloopers I've seen in a long, long time. Though I guess if it wasn't embarrassing for someone it wouldn't have been as funny...
While CNN was showing footage of President Bush giving a speech, the audio that viewers heard was anchor Kyra Phillips. No, not at the anchor desk, but in the CNN ladies room! You can hear Phillips talking to another CNN staff member, and even hear her "zip up" at one point.
But the most embarrassing part might be the part where Phillips insults her sister-in-law...before anchor Daryn Kagan jumps in. Video after the jump!
