Celebrating our people
BRAVA talent, Sinead Garvan, has been nominated in the British Podcast Awards for her work on ‘Shot & Chaser’ – a podcast produced by Somethin’ Else for Spotify.
Great British podcasts
Shot & Chaser is a daily, short-form podcast that offers a daily dose of something interesting from Monday to Friday in 10 minutes of less. Episodes ponder some of life’s most obscure, yet topical questions, from ‘What is the deal with Stonehenge and the summer solstice?’ to ‘How do FIFA ratings work?’ and ‘Why is Sweden full of Cyborgs?’ Sinead is nominated, along with her colleagues, Alex Lawless, Rosie Merotra, Michael Dale, Ella Mcleod and Naomi Oiku.
Industry recognition
Sinead has recently trained as a voice actor with BRAVA and this work has been recognised by the team at Spotify. Rhyanna Coleman, Exec Producer for Spotify Studios UK and IE said:
‘Sinead was our first choice for the entertainment segment of our daily show, Shot & Chaser, and once on board, she was keen to adapt her delivery to suit the format, topics and audiences best. This transition has been impressively seamless, and Sinead is truly in her stride – she tells us it’s down to her work with BRAVA and a testament to her voice coach (Melissa Thom). We look forward to seeing what the future holds for Sinead and continuing to see how she continues to evolve!’.
BRAVA Founder & Director, Melissa Thom, said:
‘Sinead has so much talent as a presenter, broadcast journalist and voice actor, and we are thrilled that her work, along with her ‘Shot & Chaser’ colleagues, has been recognised in The British Podcast Awards 2022. She is a rising talent in the Voice Acting industry - we know there is so much more to come from her and we will be supporting her every step of the way.’
The British Podcast Awards weekend will take place on Friday 22nd July and Saturday 23rd July and we wish Sinead and the other nominees all the very best.
