🗣 WHAT IS MIC'S PODCAST CLUB?
MIC's (virtual) Podcast Club is a space for podcasters to hangout, get advice from each other, chew the fat and be amongst your tribe for a couple of hours a month.
The virtual aspect means that YOU CAN COME FROM ANYWHERE!
MIC's Podcast Club is a free-for-all QnA asked and answered by the community there on the night. All designed to help you make awesome podcasts. We also invite the odd special guest! (like this month!)
We've covered loads of useful stuff like media coverage, mailing lists, trailers, remote recording, audiograms, microphones, growing your audience, "shortcasts" and rating and reviews.

💬 MORE ABOUT THE VOICE OVER SOCIAL 💬
The podcast, presented by Nic & Leah, has built a strong community of voiceovers, who listen to the podcast and are enthusiastically engaged online, with hundreds in the facebook group and thousands of twitter followers.

My Northern Irish craic’s landed me a voiceover client list as long as yer arm including Tesco, BBC and other impressive names. I’ve taught voice, voiceover & accents at some of the top UK drama schools
including RADA and LIPA, and supported CBBC, Hat Trick and Radio4 productions, as well as at lot of UK theatres. I've also featured in The Guardian, Spotlight and The Irish Post.
I also provide tailored voice advice and accent training through my 1-2-1 voice coaching practice, and I run the Voice and Accent Hub on Facebook for voiceovers, actors and narrators.

After years bopping around winning slam poetry competitions and presenting children’s radio programmes, I realised that voice was all I cared about. I've done voiceover for big fancy names including Guylian and Longleat Safari Park. I've also performed in a BBC Radio4 drama and read the BBC Radio Manchester news.
Lately I’ve also discovered a knack for directing and production management with the award winning audio drama company Naked Productions.
