Hi,

The best way I know how to do this is…

Going to voiceover utility, vo-f8, then command-3 for speech.  I either 
vo-right_arrow or tab here, make sure the voices tab is selected.  Get over to 
the default voice and select it.  In this pop-up menu, at the bottom is to 
customize it.  Select this and you will be brought to the premium voices.  
There is a table to interact with, where all the voices are, then a play button 
to listen to them.  Once you select your voice, you can download it 
automatically, which will bring you to software update.

Below, I'm going to try to paste a link to a podcast from Vision Australia, 
that has an excellent and simple podcast describing how to do this.  HTH

Lol, ok, I obviously haven't learned how to copy a link from Safari yet.  
*Grin,* google for the podcast.
