Last night, which was the first time I used Waze since the most recent iOS update to my iPhone, my Waze had a new voice and offered funny commentary. For example, after warning that heavy traffic was ahead, he/she said “but if it’s too bad we can get out and proceed on foot”. Another time, while taking a planned exit, it said we were now “leaving the undead behind”! Our grandchildren and my wife and I were roaring with laughter.
but…it’s gone now. I didn’t change any settings.
what’s up??

I haven’t used this myself, but you could be referring to Hasan Minhaj’s voice on Waze. You can do this in the Waze app under My Waze > Settings > Voice & sound > Waze voice > English (US) – Hasan Minhaj. I hope that’s the one you’re looking for.
hahahahha i did experience that once and it made me laughed.
It adds some fun quips and jokes to the navigation directions. It’s great that it gave you and your family a good laugh. As for why it disappeared - my guess is either Waze randomly switched back to the default voice, or possibly the voicepack expired after a certain period of time. But good news - you should be able to go into the settings like World mentioned and reselect Minhaj to get those comedy alerts back.
Try going to the gear (settings) in the upper left corner. Tap “Waze Voices” and scroll through the list to see if the voice you like is still available. block blast
I’ve started to get two different voices in the same command. Like “At the roundabout, (voice 1) take the first exit (voice 2) never had it before. English (uk) Kate.
