So, I have an Australian friend who sent me a voice message via iMessage. I pressed the keep but how do I get that off my phone and into my computer? It is very awesome and I would like it off my phone to keep forever. (Yes, I’m American and a sucker for Aussie accents)

First tap the (i) in the upper right corner.

Then tap on "attachments" and press on the voice recording.

Then tap the share arrow in the bottom left.

Then choose Box, Dropbox, Notes, etc. Once uploaded, you can then delete it from iMessage.

So I exported to Dropbox but it says file cannot be previewed. I guess the file type isn’t supported? I did save it anyways and I can always download it at a later time for a text file

Hmm. It plays in the Box app, but not Dropbox. That shouldn't affect it playing whenever you export it elsewhere.
