Interview With The SoundGirls!

Earlier this year we went out in search of finding Florida's Finest Podcast. Simply put, we wanted to find and connect with fellow Floridians who are hard at work putting out great content. And if we could help make their podcast sound a little bit better, then that would be a win-win for everyone! So we put together a Podcasting Prize Pack (we love alliteration around here) featuring two Shure MV7 podcasting microphones, cash, and more, and set out to find ourselves some amazing podcasts. This week on the Sound Connections podcast, we're sitting down with the WINNERS of our Florida's Finest Podcast contest, the SoundGirls! In case you haven't heard of them before, SoundGirls.org is a support network for women and non-binary people working in the professional audio industry. Women make up just 5% of the professional workforce in audio and music production, and SoundGirls provides an opportunity for women to network, share advice, and provide support to one another while also working to inspire and empower the next generation to enter the world of professional audio and music production. Each week on the SoundGirls Podcast they interview audio professionals who share their stories and offer tips and tricks from what they've learned in their careers. Now, we were able to flip the tables and interview two of the SoundGirls podcast hosts, Susan Williams and Tori McCook! Susan started the SoundGirls podcast back in May of 2020, while Tori has recently taken over hosting duties for the show. We get to hear about their backgrounds, why the podcast was formed, and what we can expect from the show moving forward!
