I want it to have voiceover to say certain text.
Here’s what I have.
do shell script "osascript -e 'tell app \"Finder\" to say \"” & Network Utilities Application Loading & "\"' > /dev/null 2> /dev/null &"

You don't need 'do shell script', and you don't need osascript, and you certainly don't want the Finder involved:
